The Fiscal Cliff for Dummies Explained

The truth is I am simply exhausted… exhausted from Team Obama’s governance style of going from crisis to crisis. It gets to a point where one simply does not care.

In fact, not only don’t I care, I can’t wait for the whole damn bunch of them to take a dive. It can’t happen fast enough.

Let’em all go over the friggin fiscal cliff…OK, Obama first…splat! Next in line Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi (hand in hand please!) …splat!

Oh, we can’t forget the U.S. Navy for pulling one of its aircraft carriers from the Mideast as a way to protest the possible cutbacks brought about from the automatic sequestration cuts. It seems the Navy will lose $4 billion over the next six months, an amount not large enough to be considered spit in the ocean. So, Mr. Panetta hold hands with the Navy officials who put their interests above those of the country…splat!

By the way, did you know that sequestration doesn’t mean ACTUAL cuts, but a slow down in spending? According to the Coalition to Reduce Spending:

It’s important to note that the sequester isn’t cutting real spending. The automatic spending “cuts” are only from the bloated CBO baseline. In other words, the sequester will only slow down the rate of spending increases. That means Pentagon spending will still increase over the next  ten years even with the sequester.

Now, want to really get sick? According to writer Arnold Ahlert in FrontPageMag.Com latest post on all this sequester hysteria, the real number for our national debt is significantly higher than $16 trillion! When all the government’s “off the books” numbers are added in and counted America’s actual debt is $86.8 trillion, or 550% of GDP!!!

Remember when the MSM used to talk about all those “unfunded liabilities?” 

                                                                                                                                                                  Next in line for their trip over the cliff should be all those in the talking heads and icky economists in the MSM, Obama’s cheerleaders and fear-mongers for ginning up what the sequester really means…Mr. Cooper no pushing

Ms. Maddow, Mr. Matthews line up, right behind Paul (I love welfare states) Krugman… are you going to be pushed or do you want to jump (?)...splat, splat…splat!

The truth is, the $85 million that the sequestration “cuts” will impose when compared with our $16 trillion deficit are small indeed. When compared with our actual debt of $86 trillion, these cuts are the equivalent of a speck of sand on the Sahara desert. 

Hey, Mika and Joe Scarborough next in line. Ah, I love the smell of napalm sound of Progressives splattering in the morning! SPLAT! SPLAT!

 

 

 

 

Ambassdor Chris Stevens sacrificed on the altar of Obama’s Mideast appeasment policies

Most disturbing of all is to learn that the US was warned 48 hours before the attacks and did NOTHING to warn this country’s diplomats or to beef up security. One would think that beefing up security on the 11th anniversary of the destruction of the WTC twin towers would be a no-brainer, standard operating procedure, but no. The man who can recite the Muslim call to prayer, the Shahada did no such thing. In fact, most shocking of all is the night of September 11th, when Chris Stevens was known to be missing for five hours, Obama went to bed and slept like a baby!

Barack Obama has the blood of Ambassador Chris Stevens and his staff on his hands.

There simply is no other way to put it. His incoherent policies of appeasement in the Mideast and with our adversaries have left our country weaker and our foreign policies in tatters. Online Der Speigel says flatly that, “Obama’s Middle East Policy Is in Ruins

While the lap dogs in the MSM and Team Obama continue to spin the story that it was a lame 14 minute movie trailer, out on the Internet and on YouTube for months that caused the surprise attacks on the Libyan embassy, the truth behind the attack continues to come out.

Not only wasn’t the attack a surprise, Barack “why do I have to read those boring intelligence reports Obama and the State Department had been warned about the possibility of the attacks. Jay Carney’s response they lacked actionable intelligence” not only doesn’t cut it, it is diametrically opposed to what the Libyans have been saying for days.

Reading from these various sources that emphatically assert the US was warned days in advance of the attacks:

  • The Egyptian General Intelligence Service warned that a radical jihadi group is planning to launch terrorist attacks against the US and Israeli embassies in Cairo. Egypt Independent
  • According to senior diplomatic sources, the US State Department had credible information 48 hours before mobs charged the consulate in Benghazi, and the embassy in Cairo, that American missions may be targeted, but no warnings were given for diplomats to go on high alert and “lockdown”, under which movement is severely restricted. The Independent
  • Egypt intelligence warns of terror plot against US, Israeli embassies. ynetnews.com
  • Al-Masry Al-Youm reportedly obtained a copy of the September 4 letter, sent to all Egyptian security sectors, warning that Sinai- and Gaza-based Global Jihad cells were planning attacks on the two embassies. The Jerusalem Post
  • Libyan military official claims he met with U.S. diplomats to tell them about the deteriorating security situation and President Mohamed el-Megarif says the attacks were NOT sparked by anti-Islamic video, but by Al Qaeda-connected foreigners. The DailyMailOnLine


I have remained a strong supporter of Hillary Clinton, having watched how the DNC nomination was literally ripped from her hands, stolen from her in 2008. I haven’t always agreed with all of her decisions but I decided to keep my power dry as it were, but not on this time.

Ultimately, the buck stops with Obama, but sadly, Hillary Clinton also has some “splainin to do”.

Ret. Col. David] Hunt told Breitbart News that the new State Department Rules of Engagement for Libya, approved and signed by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton since the 2011 fall of Khadafi’s regime, severely compromised the safety and security of murdered Ambassador Stevens and all American diplomatic staff in Libya.

He also stated that the decision not to staff Benghazi with Marines was made by Secretary of State Clinton when she attached her signature to the State Department Rules of Engagement for Libya document. Breitbart News has subsequently learned that under those rules of engagement, Secretary Clinton prohibited Marines from providing security at any American diplomatic installation in Libya.

My loathing and disgust for MSM holds no bounds. They have gone over and above reason, common sense, and good taste (remember that quaint concept) turning themselves inside out to protect their poseur president.

Their relentless attacks on Mitt Romney for having the temerity to question Obama’s policies and the statements originally made by the State Department & on Obama’s website (later repudiated) on the evening of 9/11 remain unrelenting.

Their faux outrage over the timing of Mitt’s comments ring hollow. They practice group think and group speak, incapable of asking a single question as to why our Libyan ambassador and his staff were left to be slaughtered like lambs.

No wonder, as the MSM continues to shill and pimp for Obama, the disdain and hostility for this group grows hourly.

 

 

Obama Owns Supreme Court’s Decision; Obamacare is Legal as a Tax!

When is a win not a win or a tax not a tax? Or maybe I should have opined, “be careful for what you wish for, you may get it.” 

Obamacare passed constitutional muster today in a 5-4 decision written by Chief Justice Roberts. The most hated piece of legislation ever passed by the Congress is now officially the law of the land.

Yea, rah rah, maybe!

Chief Justice Roberts is either the cleverest or the most devious jurist ever. With his majority opinion in place, that Obamacare is not constitutional under the Commerce Clause, but is constitutional as a tax, Obama is stuck explaining how this contradiction in his portrayal of the law could have come to pass.

After all, didn’t Obama and is minions tell the American people countless times that Obamacare was not a tax.

This is from the White House Insider and what today’s decision means:

And the initial reports I’m getting are telling me there was a lot more clever going on inside that decision than the initial reaction will indicate. It’s the Obama Tax now.  And states were given an out.  The entire law is a big ass convoluted mess and the ruling has reinforced that fact.  Obama will have to defend something he doesn’t understand, and Romney can now sit back and just repeat over and over again “repeal-repeal-repeal”.

Oh, one other thing, it’s going to be a long, long time before Obama and the radical progressives will be able to talk about “activist judges” on the Supreme Court subverting the will of Congress and the American people.  Chief Justice John Roberts just saw to that.

Is Obama Building a Case for War with Iran?

An assessment by U.S. spy agencies concludes that Iran is prepared to launch terrorist attacks inside the United States, highlighting new risks as the Obama administration escalates pressure on Tehran to halt its alleged pursuit of an atomic bomb.  The Washington Post

 

We’ve been down this road before haven’t we, only last time it was Bush and Iraq playing cat and mouse. We said they had weapons of mass destruction, they said they didn’t; however they stopped inspectors from verifying what they were saying was the truth. As we all know, that was a big mistake.

A DISTINCTION WITH NO DIFFERENCE

ONE IN THE SAME

Now we have our fake President Obama (what Constitution?), the man that now can detain any American citizen without due process simply by stating the person is a terrorist, the man who has already ordered the killing of an American citizen abroad, is playing cat and mouse with Iran.


Defense Secretary Leon Panetta recently made clear in an interview with CBS that the U.S. will not allow Iran to get a nuclear bomb; period.

Walter Russell outlined Team Obama’s position in Via Meadia.

If Washington must bomb Iranian facilities to stop them, Obama will bomb.

[...] Panetta said “the United States does not want Iran to develop a nuclear weapon. That’s a red line for us. We will take whatever steps are necessary to stop them. A nuclear Iran is unacceptable”.

When US secretaries talk about “whatever steps are necessary” they are not usually talking about holding one more meeting of the sanctions committee.  They are thinking shock and awe and not cookies and tea.

Is it possible the Iranians are foolish enough to really go after the U.S. with an “all out war” or will that be the propaganda our obedient FOOS (Friends of Obama) in the MSM will be spewing in the upcoming months?  

Salon’s Glenn Greenwald thinks so. In fact, he says the some in the MSM appear to be banging the war drums with relish and in a manner that would have been anathema if Bush 43 was targeting Iran. 

Is war with Iran inevitable before November of 2012 and will another event like 9/11 be manufactured as justification? 

All of which leads to whether you can you believe your own eyes and believe our fake President?

Cain Hit Piece by Politico Predictable and Unintensionally Funny

  • He breathed audibly, glared at the reporter and stayed silent for several seconds. After the question was repeated three times, he responded by asking the reporter, “Have you ever been accused of sexual harassment?”

from the new Politico novel Black Man Coming

The gloves are off. Maybe we should file this under reading between the lines; what they wrote and what they really meant!

Politico in concert with MSNBC and others are breathlessly reporting on allegations:

  • that “at least two” female employees complained to colleagues and senior association officials about inappropriate behavior by Cain. “At least two” really means, “damn, we tried to make it more while pretending to be journalists and couldn’t find a way!”
  • The women complained of sexually suggestive behavior by Cain that made them angry and uncomfortable. What the hell does this mean, suggestive? Either his behavior was or it wasn’t.

  • In one case, POLITICO has seen documentation describing the allegations and showing that the restaurant association formally resolved the matter. What this means is they’ve seen one side of the story, the allegation side they are using as a device to weaken Cain and strengthen Obama.
  • Both women received separation packages that were in the five-figure range. Five figure range? You mean the payoff could have been as little as $10,000? Sounds like a nuisance suit to me. Now if these women received $500,000 each that would be worthy of a second look.

There were also descriptions of physical gestures that were not overtly sexual but that made women who experienced or witnessed them uncomfortable.

 OK, I’m trying to figure out what kind of physical gesture that wasn’t overtly sexual, could be.

If Cain whipped “it” out and placed it on the table THAT would be suggestive. But no, it can’t be that. Did he place his hands in his ears and go, “Bugga,bugga, bugga”?

Unless Politico has something more than allegations, accusations, and anonymous sources this is a waste of my time and yours!

BTW, do you think the fact that this Politico piece was written by easily identified Journolisters could have tainted their perception of the truth? Na, what am I thinking?

UPDATED


Can’t we get Obama to just shut up?

I don’t know about you, but I can barely stand to hear Obama say three words.

Talk about fingernails on a chalkboard! The Reverend Al, Lawrence O’Donnell, just about everyone at MSNBC…NUKE’EM!

OBAMA,BONG POLITICS & MARXISM

I read this a few days ago. Shame on me for not posting this sooner when J.R. Dunn was talking about Obama and the Solyndra scandal.

What impressed me most was the use of bong politics and Marxisant both on the same day to define Obama!  I laughed and thought, “spot on, you nailed the sucker!”

Hey man, ya know, like if I was like Prez...


“It’s often been said that Obama is a closet Marxist out to transform the U.S. into something resembling a people’s republic.”

I’ve never completely agreed with this contention.  For one thing, he’s not precisely a Marxist; he’s a Marxisant, a useful French word denoting someone who has memorized all the slogans while not bothering his head with any of the theory.

“Spread the wealth around” is a pure Marxisant statement, just as his attempts to stir up class hatred against private jet-owning billionaires is pure Marxisant behavior.

An actual Marxist would be far more subtle and convoluted, thanks to his grasp of theory and revolutionary tradition.  Obama has neither.

What he practices is bong politics, the kind of thing you’d hear in the college dorm after the third or fourth bowl: “If I was running things, man, I’d like, get rid of money, y’know?  Money messes with your head, right?  So you get rid of it, and then…”

While I’m thinking about it, looks like all those Wall Street “protestors” have been sipping from the same Bong Juice!

Obama’s Popularity Plummets Because of the Progressives Poverty of Spirit & Soul

During the past 4 years, we have witnessed (in horror) the ascent of Obama and Progressives as they have gone about destroying America and her Constitution. We have also witnessed the vacuous nature of the Progressives and their hateful, pernicious ideology.

Progressivism is selfish, a self-indulgent salve used to cover immaturity and  self-loathing.

Some of the most telling, inane comments ever heard include:

The one time comedian, Bill Maher whining while he defames God, religion, the Tea Party etc. “Where’s the equivalent of my Tea Party?” Ya Bill, I wonder why there isn’t a Tea Party type organization for people like you?

One self proclaimed “enlightened” talker on radio was heard boasting, “Since there is no God we have to do the hard work for those unfairly treated by society!” Ah, ya; sounds like you’d be a good fill-in for God.

A recent portrayal of Abe Lincoln on the History Channel was not immune. In one segment, the show declared that it was rumored that Honest Abe had a tendency to sleep with one man in particular, ergo he must be … well, you know.

As Obama's ratings go down, the Progressives hysteria goes up!

Obama has said that his salvation is dependent on collective salvation. What a hideous concept!

Can you imagine trading your individual relationship with God for the hope that the dolt next to you does the “right thing” in accordance to the day’s latest policy pronouncement.

As the ham handed Progressives and Team Obama implemented their radical left agenda, smashing the dreams and ideals of citizens of every color and persuasion, people of conscious raced as far away from them as quickly as possible.

Obama’s approval ratings are so low that White House insiders are wondering if there’s a way they “kill” Osama bin Laden a second time!

As Obama’s ratings plummet along with the repudiation of his “Progressive” policies, his supporters in the MSM, labor, in Congress continue  to be more strident and hysterical.  Their poisonous rhetoric demonstrates how frustrated, disillusioned, angry…AND CLUELESS they really are!

They don’t get it. It’s not about pretty speeches, it’s about policies that bring RESULTS; and that means jobs, secure borders, the freedom to choose the health care that is best for our families and not dictated by some central government agency!

Robin over at American Thinker opines:

 

The left wants to tear Americans down.  Just as the Weatherman did to those naive lost kids, they want to break our spirits.  This goal of degradation is more crucial than their one-world government.

The progressives want to turn us into them, to make us feel as deprived and depraved and deadened.  It’s the only way that they can silence the roar of shame and self-loathing.

What they don’t understand is this: it’s not going to happen.  There are too many of us who won’t be hypnotized, who have a light in us that will not be extinguished.

We see right through them.  We know who they are: the most piteous of human beings, and the most dangerous.  Men without a country, orphans far from home.  The forsaken and disowned.

They’re “hungry ghosts,” to use a Tibetan phrase: tormented beings who are starving to death from an inner void that they cannot fill, no matter how much they try.

Mother Teresa was once asked how she coped with serving the poorest of the poor in Calcutta.  She responded that what she saw in the cities of the United States was much more disturbing, because it was a “poverty of the spirit.”

Poverty of the spirit.  No truer words can be spoken of the progressive left.  And they want nothing more than impoverishing your spirit as well.

PROOF THE TEA PARTY IS FULL OF TERRORISTS…& DON’T FORGET THE RACISTS!

Have you ever known someone in your life that is so tiresome, so tedious, so obtuse that you can barely say their name?

Lately the mere mention of Obama and his Progressive acolytes in Congress, in the MSM, and cable is enough to make me shut down.

After all Progressives have never found a Tea Party member they couldn’t dismiss or try to denigrate. Just ask, Maxine (I’m dumber than a stone) Waters!

I happened across this video the other day and it made me smile not an easy thing given the state of our economy and our country.

The video is so on point. Enjoy!

 

The emptiest of suits!

Bill Maher & the Dems bemoan, “Hillary would have been better than Obama!” Gee, do ya think?

WE TOLD YOU SO!

HE HAD NO CREDENTIALS OTHER THAN THE FACT HE WAS PART BLACK. He looked good on camera and could read a teleprompter really well. We warned you BHO, pResident Obama was nothing more than an empty suit.

The emptiest of suits!

Hear that hysterical chorus in the background? That’s the sound of the Obots, the elitists, the chardonnay sipping, arugula chomping, supercilious, sanctimonious fools who really believed that “winning by any means” even if that meant winning by tossing out all that the Democratic Party stood for . . . including 18,000,000 of its voters.

What's Hillary's army knew from the beginning!

The guy never held a real job. He voted “present” 123 times when he was an Illinois legislator .  I’ll never get over that one! It should have been your first clue!

He never understood America or its citizens; and still doesn’t. He was in the U.S. Senate only 143 days; most of those were campaigning for POTUS! Team Obama also spent time covering up the fact HE WAS NEVER ELIGIBLE TO RUN FOR POTUS. HIS OWN WEBSITE ACKNOWLEDGES HE WAS BORN A BRIT/DUAL CITIZEN!

Now three years into his faux presidency, the economy is in shambles, the racial divide is larger and angrier before, and this country is the laughing stock of the world...and the Obots are surprised!?! I remain incredulous!

Now large segments of his supporters are crying in their Kool-Aid saying, “Hillary would have been a better president.” Gee, do ya think?

History will record that never have so few listened to the voices of so many and disregarded them . . . throwing those voices and their votes into the garbage heap and then acted surprised when what they’d “won” ultimately resulted in a loss, AGAIN!
