Obama’s Welfare State: More Beneficiaries Now Above Poverty Line than Below.......

Despite the curveballs – Benghazi, a hurricane – this election will pivot on the economy, the debt, and the deficit. Looming in the background is the issue of entitlement spending, which must be reformed if entitlements are to continue to exist at all.

Emails: Jen Psaki knew Treasury edited GM press releases ....

TheDC obtained these internal Treasury Department documents in 2011 but an agreement with the source prevented their publication until now. The inclusion of Psaki, Deese and Brundage in these communications is reported here for the first time. (RELATED: Private emails detail Obama admin involvement in cutting non-union worker pensions post-GM bailout)

Psaki has since returned to Obama’s political campaign as his traveling press secretary.

The Patriots have landed..............

Whew!!!!!!!!!

The Patriots have returned safely to the United States.

The team departed London this morning and a team spokesman confirmed the Patriots landed at Boston's Logan Airport around noon.

The team moved up its travel plan to try to get home ahead of the main impact of Hurricane Sandy. The Patriots defeated the Rams at London's Wembley Stadium in an NFL International Series game on Sunday.

Obama's Gun Control Not Working Out So Well In Chicago....

Chicago is the gun control capital of the United States. It has long been characterized by politicians like Barack Obama who not only view concealed carry laws with disdain, but even oppose the individual right to keep and bear arms.

Obama even opposed the right to use guns for self-defense in the home while he was a state senator in Illinois.

Gangs Plan Hurricane Looting Spree Via Twitter .....

Love this sign.....Amen!


 Scores of Twitter users have flooded the social networking site announcing their plans to go on looting sprees once Hurricane Sandy makes landfall, as the New York National Guard announced it would put troops on duty in Long Island to prevent such activity.

Obama Suggests ‘Secretary of Business’ in a 2nd Term ....

JUST what we need...ANOTHER level of bureaucracy....Good Lord!

“We should have one Secretary of Business, instead of nine different departments that are dealing with things like giving loans to SBA or helping companies with exports,” Mr. Obama said in an interview that aired Monday on MSNBC. “There should be a one-stop shop.”

Labor Department Says No Decision Yet on Whether to Delay Jobs Report - Real Time Economics - WSJ

Imagine if a Republican did this....regardless of the storm etc......SCREAMS!

 The Labor Department said Monday that it has yet to make a decision on whether to delay Friday’s closely-watched October employment report due to the effects from Hurricane Sandy.

Federal government offices in Washington are closed Monday and may be shut again Tuesday due to the storm. It isn’t clear if the closure would cause a delay in processing the data.

Obama Nixes Campaign Stop, Returning to Washington......

Notice Carney says the return is due to “deteriorating weather conditions.” That is, Obama is probably returning early less to “monitor the preparations” than out of concern by officials that they might not have been able to get him back into Washington if they waited until the afternoon.

Or perhaps the political team finally calculated they would on balance be worse for his reelection prospects if he were seen campaigning while the New Jersey shore was becoming part of the Atlantic Ocean.

Jennifer Griffin Recounts Harrowing Benghazi Tale as Father of Slain SEAL Demands Answers.....

Fox News’ Jennifer Griffin appeared on America’s Election HQ today to discuss the Benghazi attacks through the lens of one of her sources, who apparently recounted a number of brutal details about how the situation unfolded on September 11.

Griffin said her source detailed a frantic situation, with Washington repeatedly (and bewilderingly) telling American forces to “stand down,” and with promised reinforcements failing to arrive in spite of being well within striking distance.

‘We Are Change’ Tells Obama Supporters President’s Policies Are Romney’s....

Romney was quickly called “crazy,” “his” policies deemed “unconstitutional” and “immoral.” The crowd seemed particularly disturbed by the expansion of the Patriot Act, the National Defense Authorization Act (which allows U.S. citizens to be detained without trial), and the proposed “Kill List.”

So what happened when Rudkowski had to tell the group that the policies they just eviscerated were actually being supported by their presidential pick?

To their credit, a number of the voters said they needed to look it up and do some more homework. Others refused to believe the man, while others spun 180 degrees almost immediately.

CBS News uses outdated ‘fact-check’ to counter Paul Ryan’s claims on Delphi pension situation.....

CBS News relied on an outdated, months-old “fact-check” this weekend to call “mostly false” Paul Ryan’s claim that President Barack Obama’s auto bailout favored unionized workers.

'Highly confidential' internal Treasury documents show Obama administration's deep involvement in Delphi pension scandal .....

They seem to "Bombshell" hourly these days....can you imagine 4 more years of this...?

Internal Treasury Department documents described as “highly confidential” and obtained by The Daily Caller show a greater level of involvement in the Delphi pension scandal from senior officials in the Obama administration than has been previously acknowledged.

These Are Urban Outfitters’ Pro-Obama, Anti-Romney T-Shirt Designs.....

Nice............

Urban Outfitters is a clothing company known for its controversial messaging. In the not-so-distant past, critics lambasted the company after one of the t-shirts it was selling appeared to have the Holocaust-era Star of David on it. Then, there was a catalogue image of two women kissing – and who could forget the litany of anti-Christian and anti-capitalist messages embroidered in other clothing examples carried by the company?

Retired Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer: My Sources Say Obama Was in the Room Watching Benghazi Attack Happen.....

Retired Army Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer said Saturday he has sources saying President Barack Obama was in the room at the White House watching the assault on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya unfold.

Two unarmed U.S. drones were dispatched to the consulate and recorded the final hours of the attack, which killed U.S. Ambassador to Libya Christopher Stevens and three other Americans.

Obama Gets Ayn Rand All Wrong......What a surprise, ey?!....

I can almost one hundred percent guarantee something right here and now. President Obama's only connection to Rand is probably that of a secondhand introduction through some liberal professor who chose to simply judge Rand's vision according to words like "selfishness" and "capitalism." If Obama had actually read and/or understood Rand, then his comments would not be so far off the mark. Let's set the record straight, Randians, because this propaganda is beyond ridiculous. And to see it espoused by the sitting President of the United States is one step away from being down right shameful.

A Mitt Romney most of America doesn't know.....

Edward Albertian had been working for only a few weeks at his new job, managing the first two Boston-area Staples stores, when he got an unnerving call from his wife. As Staples staffed up, Albertian had been poaching talent from his old company, and his former boss was piqued.

That morning, a courier had delivered papers to Albertian's wife threatening them with eviction unless they immediately repaid the $250,000 loan from Albertian's former company that they had used to buy their home.

A few days later the couple, with their newborn son and 2-year-old daughter in tow, were invited to Staples' Watertown headquarters and found themselves sitting across from Mitt Romney, whose company, Bain Capital, had invested money in Staples. He had heard about their predicament from the chain's co-founder, Tom Stemberg.

10 Interesting Facts About Mitt Romney....

1) In 1967, while serving as a missionary in Nantes, France, Mitt Romney, then 19, was involved in a fight while trying to defend two women from a team of French rugby players. After being alerted to the situation inside his dorm, Romney immediately ran outside barefoot in the snow to where the 2 women were being harassed. Romney ended up getting punched in the face and suffered a badly bruised jaw.

Taxes, charity cost Romney 57.9 percent of income .....

So......Mr. President.....here's some "Economic Patriotism"....

With President Obama expected to use his second-chance debate this week to portray Mitt Romney as an uncaring rich guy, a new analysis of the GOP candidate's wealth shows that the millionaire was so generous that he kept just 42 percent of his income.

Media Blackout: Aside from FOX, Sunday News Hosts Fail to Raise Benghazi........

The mainstream media's silence on the Benghazi disaster reached deafening levels on Sunday, as hosts of four out of the five major news shows--with the exception of Fox News Sunday--failed to raise the issue. Only Bob Schieffer of CBS gave it serious consideration, and only after it was raised by Sen. John McCain.

Leadership: Romney Uses Campaign Bus to Deliver Hurricane Relief.....

LEADERSHIP!!!

This is what America IS....this is what American's DO!

The Romney campaign has canceled campaign events, commercials, and fundraising appeals in states that will be impacted by Hurricane Sandy, and is instead using a campaign bus to help deliver supplies to those who will be impacted by what forecasters are predicting may be a "storm of the century."

The October Surprise and the November Election....

So why didn’t the President wait until he had more good news? What was the hurry on the announcement? We might note that the October 29, 2010, announcement came just four days before the 2010 midterm elections. And the President’s announcement was soon followed by five “readouts” of Obama conversations with the foreign leaders whose countries helped unravel the plot. In other words, the Obama administration worked overtime to push its counter-terrorism news to the forefront, just just before the elections.

Benghazigate: Chapter Two....

"Benghazi Gate".....it just keeps coming....



Of course it is, at least unless you're President Obama and his minions. His two principal flunkies -- Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Defense Secretary Leon Panetta -- had a lot of options on September 11 during the seven-hour attack on our Benghazi consulate and the CIA house about a mile away. According to a Fox News report based on several sources, the people under attack pled with the CIA for help three times during the attack and all three pleas were refused. Team Obama did nothing to save their lives.

BOMBSHELL: US Security Forces Would Not Have Been Painting Targets on Ground Unless There Was Air Support Overhead – But White House Called It Off .....

Funny, I bet the print ALL KINDS of photos of our President sitting in the Situation Room looking so serious as Hurricane Sandy reaches shore.....Ready at a seconds notice to pull the trigger on rescue!
Odd how he couldn't do the same in Benghazi.....



 The team was in constant radio contact with their headquarters. In fact, at least one member of the team was on the roof of the annex manning a heavy machine gun when mortars were fired at the CIA compound. The security officer had a laser on the target that was firing and repeatedly requested back-up support from a Spectre gunship, which is commonly used by U.S. Special Operations forces to provide support to Special Operations teams on the ground involved in intense firefights.

Romney Soars in Pensacola....

The proverbial "electricity" was palpable in the crowd at the Pensacola Civic Center on Saturday, but candidate Mitt Romney was talking about electricity of another kind. Romney, a onetime Boy Scout leader, was speaking about a major national Scout ceremony from years ago in which a Scout leader from Monument, Colorado, was telling a story while he, Romney, was there on the dais.

Abound Solar is currently under criminal investigation by the Weld County District Attorney's Office.......

Just one day after President Barack Obama went on television saying that politics had nothing to do with the now bankrupt Abound Solar receiving a taxpayer-backed loan guarantee from the Energy Department, emails have surfaced that appear to contradict his claim.

Children ‘of the future’ blame ‘Mom and Dad’ for electing Mitt Romney, sing about Romney letting sick people ‘just die’....

Are you serious...?...

Big Bird, Benghazi, Binders, Bayonets and now Blank Stares......This Presidency is brought to you by the Letter "B"...for...well, you know what.....

A new video from the founders of a celebrated advertising agency features children “of the future” singing about the aftermath of a Mitt Romney presidency: A world where sick people are required to “just die,” the atmosphere is “frying,” gays can be “fixed” and “oil fills the sea.”

The children, who stare blankly at the camera throughout the video, even take pains to explicitly mention that they blame “mom and dad” for all those horrors.

Racine Tea Party Fires Up The Faithful ...

The Racine Tea Party's "Rally for Jobs" kicked off at 2:30 p.m. Saturday inside the old Sam's Club at 6200 Regency West Drive.

Before the event could get under way, though, organizers say a truck affixed with "Obama" stickers drove through the parking lot and dumped quantities of nails.

"We went outside and picked up what we could," said Lou D'Abbraccio, holding a cup filled with nails. "But this was just wrong."

The Des Moines Register endorsement: Mitt Romney offers a fresh economic vision.....

The former governor and business executive has a strong record of achievement in both the private and the public sectors. He was an accomplished governor in a liberal state. He founded and ran a successful business that turned around failing companies. He successfully managed the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City.

Romney has made rebuilding the economy his No. 1 campaign priority — and rightly so.

Is voter fraud being committed in Ohio?....

Today's VOTER FRAUD Alert!

Two volunteer poll workers at an Ohio voting station told Human Events that they observed van loads of Ohio residents born in Somalia — the state is home to the second-largest Somali population in the United States — being driven to the voting station and guided by Democratic interpreters on the voting process. No Republican interpreters were present, according to these volunteers.

While it’s not unusual for get-out-the-vote groups to help voters get to the polls, the volunteers who talked to Human Events observed a number of troubling and questionable activities.

Absentee ballots may have been destroyed in crash......

Federal officials say that absentee ballots being sent to U.S. military serving in Afghanistan may have been burned in a plane crash.

A top official in the Federal Voting Assistance Program this week notified election officials across the nation that a transport plane crashed at Shindad Air Base on Oct. 19.

The crash resulted in the destruction of 4,700 pounds of mail inbound to troops serving in the area.

Federal officials in their email to state election offices said they did not know if any ballots were destroyed. They also said the lost mail was limited to one zip code.

But they recommended that election officials resend a new ballot to anyone who requested one since the first ballot may have been destroyed in the crash and fire.

Obama Government can't get ballots to military, But can get guns to Mexico Fast........

 And it’s not just in the Old Dominion. MVPP Executive Director Eric Eversole reports significant declines in absentee-ballot requests by service members across the nation.

Compiling data from Virginia, Florida, North Carolina, Illinois, Ohio, Alaska, Colorado and Nevada, Eversole’s organization found that military families have requested 55,510 absentee ballots so far this year. That’s a sharp decline from the 166,252 sought in those states in 2008.

Audit: Green jobs stimulus program wastes cash....

Only 38 percent of those who have completed training got jobs based on it, and only 16 percent kept jobs for at least six months — the key measure of success for the program.

“Outcomes for participants were far less than originally proposed,” the auditors said.

Chris Stevens’ Last Words....

But those who have been following the disturbing developments in Libya with an open mind know the Obama administration has been lying about what happened there from the start.

The most charitable conclusion one can draw is that during the attack the Obama White House froze under pressure, unable or unwilling to act, as the president geared up for a fundraising event in fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada.

Father of Slain SEAL: Who Made the Decision Not to Save My Son?.....

“When [Obama] came over to our little area” at Andrew Air Force Base, says Woods, “he kind of just mumbled, you know, ‘I’m sorry.’ His face was looking at me, but his eyes were looking over my shoulder like he could not look me in the eye. And it was not a sincere, ‘I’m really sorry, you know, that your son died,’ but it was totally insincere, more of whining type, ‘I’m sorry.’”

Woods says that shaking President Obama’s hands at his son’s memorial service was “like shaking hands with a dead fish.”

Wisconsin company announces layoffs ahead of Biden arrival.....

Bad news will greet Vice President Joe Biden when he arrives in Wisconsin Thursday night. Hours earlier, Oshkosh's largest employer announced that it will lay off 450 employees in January.

Oshkosh Corp., a truck manufacturer with Pentagon contracts, blamed the "difficult decisions" on looming cuts to the nation's defense budget.

8,803,335: Another New Record for Disability—Up 975 Per Day Under Obama.....

The number of American workers collecting federal disability insurance benefits hit yet another record high in October, according to the Social Security Administration.

This month 8,803,335 disabled workers are collecting benefits, up from the previous record of 8,786,049 set in September.

Ty Woods Memorial Fund to benefit SEAL......

I think EVERYONE who serves in the military is a hero. Period-dot. 

However, the one thing I believe we as civilians, and those who serve count on is trust.

Trust that our government will have our back when we reach out to help. When the odds are stacking up so high against us, you hope the Calvary will arrive.

In the military, you hope political correctness and politics won't cost lives...won't stop that Calvary from arriving....

That's what happened to these men.

When they realized there was no hope, they did what American's do...they rose up to the occasion and tried with all their might to make it right.

These ARE true American heroes.....

"But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."

In his final moments, he lived and fought as he always did. Ty responded to the attack on the Benghazi consulate on September 11, 2012. He fought his way through the enemy and into the compound to defend State Department personnel from attack. Setting up a defensive position, Ty and his colleagues helped evacuate dozens of Americans from the consulate and to a safer position while continuing to defend against the onslaught.

Fighting until his last breath, Ty did what he always had; he inspired, led, helped and fought for the defenseless, for our country, and for us. Ty died as he would have wanted - with his sword in his hand. Ty leaves behind a wife and his young child.

U.N.'s war on Israel puts American economy in crosshairs ......

The Washington Free Beacon has obtained a report soon to be released by the United Nations that calls for an international campaign of legal attacks and economic warfare on a group of American companies that do business in Israel, including Hewlett-Packard, Caterpillar Inc., and Motorola Solutions Inc.

Ted Turner: I Think It’s “Good” U.S. Troops are Killing Themselves.....

Asked what he thought about the fact that more American soldiers commit suicide than are killed in combat, host Morgan said it was “shocking,” but Turner responded, “No, I think it’s good.”

Turner went on to argue that it was time for people to start acting “enlightened” and that this was why it was “good” U.S. soldiers are committing suicide in such large numbers because it shows an aversion to war.

At first, Turner smirked and appeared as if he was about to say it’s “terrific” that U.S. soldiers are killing themselves, before using the word “good” instead and adopting a sterner facial expression.

The American Decline .....

One of the best political ad's I have ever seen - please pass on and VOTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Decency of Mitt....

Americans might like Romney even more if they understood his random acts of kindness and significant feats of bravery. As Mara Gay, Dan Hirschhorn, and M. L. Nestel wrote for TheDaily.com: “A man weighed down by the image of a heartless corporate raider who can’t relate to people actually has a history of doing remarkably kind things for those in need.”

Suspect in Benghazi Attack Killed.......

However...Al-Qaeda is on the run......



A suspect in last month’s attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi was killed Wednesday by Egyptian security forces. Karim Ahmed Essam el-Azizi, a Libyan who had been living in Cairo, was among a group of militants with suspected links to al Qaeda. He was killed by a bomb that he was trying to use against the security forces, according to one official, who did not clarify what role Azizi was suspected of playing in the Benghazi attack. Police also found 15 bombs and an array of weapons in his apartment.

Obama Privately Touts Sequester After Denying Responsibility in Debate.......

After loud complaints from new and mainstream media alike, the transcript of the President's interview with the Des Moines Register was made public today. Since these comments on the sequester represented a complete reversal of the position he took at the debate less than 24 hours earlier, it's easy to understand why the President's campaign initially wanted to keep them off the record.

Have you seen the Romney-Ryan bulldozer?

A small business owner in Iowa is mixing business and politics with his support for Gov. Mitt Romney and Rep. Paul Ryan — in a very big way.


Josh Scheckel of Bellevue, Iowa, specializes in rebuilding and reselling construction and mining equipment. He also believes in the American Dream, having lived it himself. “I started my own business 16 years ago with two thousand dollars and a dream,” he says. “We have grown to where we are today as a result of good, old-fashioned hard work, persistence and unwavering determination by everyone involved.”

Obama: Romney's a 'Bulls-----'.....

FIRST LOOK – Rolling Stone cover, “Obama and the Road Ahead: The Rolling Stone Interview,” by Douglas Brinkley: “We arrived at the Oval Office for our 45-minute interview … on the morning of October 11th. … As we left the Oval Office, executive editor Eric Bates told Obama that he had asked his six-year-old if there was anything she wanted him to say to the president. … [S]he said, ‘Tell him: You can do it.’ Obama grinned. … ‘You know, kids have good instincts,’ Obama offered. ‘They look at the other guy and say, “Well, that’s a bullshitter, I can tell.”’”

Why don't white liberals vote for black politicians? ....

Liberals always cry racism in moments of stress, so it’s understandable that Matthews would lash out. It must be very stressful seeing Obama go down in the polls even following the debates he allegedly won.

With the economy in the toilet and the Islamic world on fire, when Obama appears in person it’s even worse than if he were sleeping. That’s why — contrary to popular belief — the first debate was Obama’s best performance.

Governor Chris Christie, singer James Taylor campaign on opposite sides of Mass. Senate battle.....

One is a two-fisted Republican rock star known for his mince-no-words confrontations with unionized teachers, liberal activists, and other who dare to cross him. The other is a gentle troubadour known for his melancholy ballads of love and loss.

On Wednesday, both hit the campaign trail in Massachusetts.

Governor Chris Christie of New Jersey told reporters in Watertown that Senator Scott Brown would help break the gridlock in Washington.

CBS Busts Obama--and Itself: Unaired 60 Minutes Clip Proves White House Lied About Benghazi.....

No Drive-By Media here...!?...is there an honest Journalist out there ANYWHERE????

CBS chose not to air that portion of the interview with President Obama--not even in the days and weeks that followed, when it was highly relevant--first to the question of the nature of the Benghazi attack, then to the question of whether the president had in fact called it an act of terror from the start.

According to Fox News, the clip first appeared online on Oct. 19. It was embedded Oct. 24 in an article by CBS News’ Sharyl Attkisson.

What CBS chose to air, instead, was President Obama’s attack on his Republican rival, Mitt Romney, who had criticized the administration’s apologetic response to the Cairo demonstration.

Back When Democrats Knew Economics....

National security "will not be determined by military or diplomatic moves alone," he stated. "It will be affected by the decisions of finance ministers as well as by the decisions of Secretaries of State and Secretaries of Defense, by the deployment of fiscal and monetary weapons as well as by military weapons, and, above all, by the strength of this nation's economy as well as by the strength of our defenses."

Obama White House Knew Al-Qaeda Ally Hit Benghazi.....

U.S. officials reportedly monitored an audio feed of the Benghazi attack in real time, CBS News reports. FBI and State Department officials have also reviewed security camera footage recovered from the site. During the attack, U.S. forces were in place in nearby Sicily but the order to fly to Benghazi in an attempt to rescue the besieged staff at the consulate never came.

Gloria Allred -- Barack Obama Says I'm One of the BEST Lawyers in America......

Gloria Allred just got the Presidential seal of approval ... or so she says.


The feisty feminist was at the Barack Obama fundraiser at the Nokia Theater in L.A. Sunday, and on her way out she told our photog she had a moment with the Prez.

Gloria says the big O "indicated that he was very aware of the work I did," and then said to people around them, "She's one of the best attorneys in our country."
