NOW IT’S MOOCHELLE O. WHO WANTS TO LECTURE US ON THE ‘EVIL’ OF GUNS…


I’m pretty confident in saying that, as far as most of us are concerned, it’s on the list of those whom none of us need to be taking advice from on matters such as freedom and the Constitution that we would find Moochelle Obama, and likely right near the top. And I say that because Moochelle has joined the chorus of leftwing loons who have taken it upon themselves to lecture law-abiding citizens on the evils of wanting to protect themselves and their families from what it is that they have unleashed upon our country. An issue on which she has zero credibility when you consider how she and her family are constantly surrounded by gun toting Secret Service agents.

It was this past Thursday, during an appearance on “CBS Mornings,” that Moochelle was heard to comment on how American citizens having an “unfettered access to firearms” is not a good thing. And so, here we have yet another typical delusional leftist who believes that law-abiding citizens exercising their Second Amendment rights amounts to “unfettered access” in a country Moochelle has habitually been ashamed to claim as her own. And host Gayle King asked, “Do you think we will ever figure out a way to reconcile gun violence in this country? Because it does keep me up.” Moochelle said, “I hope and pray that at some point enough becomes enough."

King then went on to ask, “What is the point?” Moochelle said, “We wondered that throughout our entire presidency, thinking that maybe this time.” Yup, eight years in the White House and it’s obvious that in all that time she never once went to the National Archives to read the actual Constitution. King said, “Barack Obama said Newton was one of the worst days of his presidency, and we still didn’t get that message.” Moochelle said, “We are the only developed country on the planet where its citizens can have unfettered access to firearms. That is not a good thing.” What Moochelle seems totally oblivious to is we’re the only country with a Constitution.

And it was at that point that perhaps Ms. King might have mentioned the fact that we already have over 20,000 laws regulating firearms and point out that what Moochelle should really be complaining about is a lack of enforcement in her blue cities. But then, as we all know, Ms. King likely doesn’t see that as being her job. Her job is to allow leftist nutcases to come on to her show and say pretty much anything they wish and to go completely unchallenged no matter how big the lie might be that is uttered by her ‘guest.’ Anyway, Moochelle continued, “More of us have to feel strongly about it, particularly our young people. This is where democracy comes in."

And she went on to say, “Voting — all of this stuff is decided in the ballot box.” Democrats love calling us a Democracy. Cheap lies to bypass the Constitution. We are a Constitutional Republic, as long as freedoms don’t become a distant mirage. Moochelle added, “Now the problem is that our young people have to understand that just because an issue doesn’t affect you today doesn’t mean it’s not going to matter in five or ten years. Voting matters, that’s all I can say.” And that’s true, if you value your freedom never, EVER, vote for a Democrat!!! But thanks to our public school system and our colleges the desire to be free is being drummed out of our young.

Moochelle speaks like the arrogant elitist bigot that she is. The violence that occurs daily in this country isn’t caused by the ordinary people who make up the vast majority of its citizens, it’s caused in large part by people who look like Moochelle. Rather than controlling inner city criminals, liberal bigots, like Moochelle and her husband, constantly seek to shift the blame elsewhere and use inner city crime as an excuse to control everyone else with arbitrary, ineffective, burdensome anti-gun regulations. Clearly both Moochelle and her husband are racist bigots at their core and they don’t hate inner city crime as much as they, very clearly, hate YOU.

Gun control/confiscation elites, like Moochelle, all live in gated communities or in homes behind walls with security that is armed with lots of GUNS. They send their darling children to private schools with resource officers that are, again, armed with GUNS, and work in buildings that have guards who are also, armed with GUNS. That is why so many see them as being nothing more than hypocrites because they do not, or will not, follow the rules that they put in place for the common people. So many are so badly tainted with this stigma that none of them can promote gun control when they are so blatantly not abiding by the spirit of the laws they are proposing.

And I’d like to ask Moochelle exactly where it is that this “unfettered access to firearms” actually exits. But then, I think, we already know the answer to that. That would be in 90 percent of Democrat ‘owned’ demographics. It’s they who do not buy their firearms in a gun store and less than 2 percent obtain them at a gun show. They steal them! It’s 90+ percent of all criminals that are not prosecuted for the firearm crimes that they’re caught committing. So violent crime and mass shootings are allowed to occur due primarily to Democrat social policies. The only “unfettered access to firearms” is among criminals, who don’t follow the law anyway.

It's criminals, including those in politics and, apparently, those married to those in politics, who want their victims unarmed and unable to defend themselves. Perhaps she and her husband need to give up their Secret Service protection to get those guns off of the streets. Moochelle knows full well, as does every other Democrat, that without the Second Amendment, the government would then be free to move quickly to justify a totalitarian police state in order to protect the people from the criminals. Once done, they will then move on to repealing other parts of the Constitution on until we’re all reduced to obedient subjects not free American citizens.

And I can’t help but wonder how many firearm-bearing Secret Service agents the Moochelle and her husband have protecting them at all times? But we ‘peons’ are not to be allowed the means of being able to defend ourselves and our loved ones. All laws restricting any facet of firearms possession by law-abiding citizens should be declared un-Constitutional and stricken from the books. Now I have no doubt that Moochelle is quite proud of being the wife of the former Liar-in-Chief more than she ever did as the wife of mealy-mouthed community activist because she gets round the clock secret service protection, for everyone else it’s “unfettered access to firearms."

And finally, on a bit of a side note, the American people handed to Moochelle’s husband a historic opportunity to lead, but instead he failed because of his politics. And together they could have encouraged ALL young people to become productive members of our society by encouraging marriage, fatherhood, education, faith, literacy, sobriety, respect, duty and lawful work! Instead, they both encouraged our young to blame, to covet, to riot, to loot and, most certainly, to hate. They were both then, and remain so today, silent as urban youth culture descends into mayhem and despair. They do so because that’s the only way that the Democrat Party is able to continue on.

B!TCHES OF A FEATHER?


I suppose this latest revelation coming from our less than stellar first lady should come as no real surprise. The revelation to which I refer is the one where the very classless Mee-Shell Obumer says that one of her role models is none other than another classless bitch, "Hanoi Jane" Fonda. Remember now, this is the same bitch for whom it took the electing of her corrupt husband for to finally be able to be proud of her country.

So I guess her declaring of Ms. Fonda as one of her role models came during some silly interview with People Magazine. Mee-Shell "O" listed "Hanoi Jane," as one of the people she would like to look and live like when she's 70 or 80 years old. "There’s Jane Fonda, a beautiful, engaged, politically savvy, sharp woman," Mee-Shell said. Somehow those aren’t exactly the adjectives I would use to describe someone who’s a traitor.

And I’m sure that this rather idiotic comment is likely to enrage Vietnam War veterans, which I’m quite sure is exactly what was intended. Many still remember how Fonda, now 76, went to North Vietnam in 1972 and was photographed sitting on an anti-aircraft battery. Fonda denounced U.S. military leaders as "war criminals" and later called tortured American POWs "hypocrites and liars," telling them to "get a life."

Mee-Shell's comments are already receiving criticism. Writing on Breitbart, David Webb said, "Michelle Obama often comes across to me as an angry black woman who had all the advantages such as going to Princeton University after coming from basically nothing. Yet instead of maximizing her advantages in life she seems to wear them like a burden and projects the burden onto others." Sounds pretty accurate.

A post on the conservative blog, Weasel Zippers said it best, saying, "Only a die-hard liberal thinks Jane Fonda is anything less than a traitorous scumbag." While another reader at Newsbusters said, "Oh gee, a communist being a 'big fan' of another communist, who’d have thunk it?" And still another said, "These are the type of people who now rate tribute in our great Republic? This story is sad on so many levels."

Never before in the history of our country has there been two more classless people residing in "The People’s House" than the Obumers. And have you ever noticed that those who possess the least amount of class are always Democrats? Let’s face it, who besides a Democrat would EVER think it even marginally appropriate to be on the receiving end of a ‘BJ’ in the Oval Office? But, it’s really all we can expect from these scumbags.

BRINGS A TEAR TO MY ONE GOOD EYE!


So let me see if I have this right. Despite all the Billions of dollars that we taxpayers have been made to fork over just so that this bitch and her blatantly corrupt husband can go on some wildly extravagant vacations, the likes of which most us, the ones who are paying for them, can only dream about, our piss poor excuse of a first lady, Mee-Shell Obama, actually has the nerve to describe living in the White House as like being in a "really nice prison." You gotta be kidding me!

Mee-shell’s imbecilic comment came during her discussion with former First Lady Laura Bush, the last real First Lady that we've had, at the African First Ladies Summit in Tanzania during an interview moderated by that well-known faux-journalist, Cokie 'Kookie' Roberts. Roberts also made note of the fact that Martha Washington, our first First Lady, also described living in the role as akin to being a state prisoner. Geez, now we're comparing Mee-Shell to Martha Washington?

Mee-shell said that while she loved her job and found it to be liberating in some respects, she also found it confining in others. Her job? What the Hell is this moron talking about? She's never had a 'job' in her life. "There are some prison elements to it," she joked. "But it’s a really nice prison." Former first lady Laura Bush reminded the crowd that First Ladies had a chef. "You can’t complain," Mee-Shell Obama admitted. "But there is definitely elements that are confining."

Ok then, so let's all break out the crying towels and have a pity-party for poor Mee-Shell, who is also, I guess, a modern day Martha Washington. I already have a nearly impossible time trying to take these two clowns seriously. And that is made all the more difficult by the fact that they are living in that "really nice prison", after having never really accomplished anything on their own, at anytime during their entire lives. They wouldn't know how to do things on their own.

These two are nothing if not two of the biggest frauds that you'll find anywhere on the entire planet, and yet they seem to think that they are, somehow, above the rest of us. And, sadly, were it not for the rather impressive level of ignorance possessed by a majority of the American people, they most certainly, would not now find themselves living in the really nice prison to which Mee-Shell refers. They would, most likely, find themselves living in a very real, and not so nice, prison.

MEESHELL OBAMA...NOT MUCH OF A FIRST LADY...


Sadly, what we have been saddled with for the last 4+ years is, besides having the worst president since Jimmy Carter, is also having someone who has, without a doubt, been the worst 'First Lady' of anyone who has ever been blessed to wear the title. Meeshell Obama is quite possibly the most classless women to ever cross the threshold of the White House, I know she is in my lifetime. But what started me off on this little rant of mine is the fact that at a book signing event in Washington on Tuesday, our beloved first lady urged her many adoring fans to "buy away" for Mother's Day. "It's coming up," she said, adding that "American Grown" would make a "great gift."

This book of hers supposedly tells the story of the White House garden, and others around the country. Personally I'm surprised she's able to string enough sentences together to come up with a book. But then, like her husband before her, she probably had somebody write it for her. Anyway, in describing this book of hers, Meeshell said, "It's not just the story of the White House Kitchen Garden; it's the story of community gardens all across this country, because the truth is, the idea of the White House garden is not unique. Community gardens are a mainstay in so many communities across this country, from rural America to my neighborhood on the South Side of Chicago."

Now in what I'm sure was nothing more than an attempt on her part to embellish a bit upon what it was that caused her to want to 'write' this book, she mentioned that until she started doing research for her book, she didn't realize that there was a community garden in one of the parks she "grew up using." She said, "But community gardens are a significant part of the history of this country, which is why we thought it was important to incorporate these stories in the telling of the White House garden story." Right, we supposed to believe that Meeshell busied herself doing the much needed research for this in depth book of hers? Is there anyone out there buying any of this drivel?

Meeshell said her goal in writing the book was to share the story of the White House garden, which she described as "semi-open to the public." She said, "Because if you visit the White House along the South Lawn, you can see the garden from outside of the White House. But millions of people don't get a chance to come to Washington. They hear about the garden; they don't get an opportunity to see it. So we wanted to use this as an opportunity to tell people about how we started it and how we thought about it, who all is involved, what kind of role Bo (the dog) plays -- he's a very significant part of the book." For crying out loud, gag me with a spoon!

She said the book also allows her to plug her "Let's Move" initiative to end childhood obesity: We're told that all proceeds from the book will go to the National Park Foundation, which supports the White House Kitchen Garden and other community gardens across the country. Look, to say that I am less than impressed with either one of these frauds would be quite the understatement. And like I said, I don't believe she wrote her book anymore than I believe Barry actually wrote any of his. Neither one of them is anywhere near as bright as they, and the media, would like us all to believe. They're both extremely shallow and thin-skinned wannabes.

OUR ‘FIRST LADY’, IS NOT…


I’ve been racking my brains lately trying to come up with a worse example of a ‘First Lady’ than the one we’re currently saddled with, and I can’t. There may be one, but I keep coming up empty, at least during my lifetime. The most recent example of just how bad this empty-headed sister with the big ass is, was when she said, that she can "imagine" an America where businesses promote the "healthiest options" so children will be "begging and pleading" for fruits and vegetables. She went on to add that, yes, "it is possible to create" such a world.

Our sorry excuse for a ‘First Lady,’ who I think, views herself more as being a Queen, while attending the Partnership for a Healthier America Summit on Friday at George Washington University in Washington, D.C., said, "I mean, just think for a minute what this country could look like." She went on, "Imagine walking into any grocery store in America and finding the healthiest options clearly marked and centrally placed so that you know within seconds what’s good for your family when you walk in that store."

Our ‘First Lady’ said, "Imagine opening up a menu in any restaurant and knowing exactly what items will give your family the most nutrition for your hard-earned dollar." Then she actually said, "Imagine our kids begging and pleading, throwing tantrums to get you to buy more fruits, vegetables and whole grains." She exclaimed, "Yes, this is possible." Adding finally that, "It is possible to create this world!" Oh yes, that’s my view of what America should be. Children "begging and pleading" for fruit. That’s just plain NUTTY!

‘The Queen’ went on to praise corporations like Walmart, Disney and Darden Restaurants for marketing healthier foods to children. She also touted the launch of "Let’s Move Active Schools," a $70 million initiative "to promote physical activity and bring physical education back to our schools." Well, gee, ain’t that just swell. Where would we be if we didn’t have this wonderful lady, who ‘obviously’ only wants the best for us, looking out for our children? Like that’s not something we’re capable of doing without her interference?

So like I said, try as I might, I just could not come up with an example of a worse ‘First Lady’ than ‘Meeshell My-Bell’ Obama. She as mush of a fraud as her husband is. They’re all about using people and I don’t appreciate her attempting to using children, our children, as her little method of gaining for herself some time in the spotlight. I mean, just how shallow must a person be to use children as way to boost one’s ego? We know her husband is not above using children as well, he has done so in his effort to convince us that we need to ban guns.

Just as a side note here, since we are talking about the needs of our kids, how about schools actually perform the function for which they were designed, to TEACH our kids. It was recently reported that nearly 80 percent of students who graduate from New York City Public Schools can’t read well enough to attend community college. And New York City is far from being the only example of the piss-poor product currently being turned out by over government run public school system. Might it be a better use of Mee-shell’s time if she were to focus on that?

FIRST LADY OFFERING UP SOME...SEX TIPS?

You know, the more time goes by, the more apparent it becomes that those who currently reside in the White House quite simply have no class. Our president having now taken sleaziness and dishonesty to a whole new level deserve no respect for the office he holds, because he doesn't respect the office himself. And his wife is no better, exhibiting a sense of entitlement rarely seen from someone bestowed with the honor of living in the people's house. Our president far from viewing his office as a opportunity to lead us into a brighter future, instead sees it merely as a method to inflict upon this great country a horribly skewed political philosophy that will result in condemning countless future generations to live in darkness and poverty and in bondage to an all powerful government. The American people should, at this time, feel very betrayed. The fact that many do not tells us a great deal about that which resides inside many of us. The American spirit which once burned so brightly was already beginning to flicker before Barry ever entered the scene, but since that fateful day in January 2009, it has gotten much dimmer. God forbid Barry gets re-elected, for if that happens I fear that the light may be extinguished all together. And the sad thing is, so many people really don't seem to care all that much. They listen to the garbage spewed by our president and cheer him on ever so enthusiastically. They're lambs being lead to slaughter and don't even know it, and they're dragging the rest of us right along with them. We must rekindle that spirit, and we can only succeed in that endeavor by defeating Barry "Almighty".

OBAMA, WORKING TO RALLY HIS UNION STORM TROOPERS...


Seeking to shore-up of his more important core constituencies, organized labor, for his 2012 reelection, our "Dear Beloved Leader", Barry "Almighty", came out swinging on Monday as he accused Republicans of seeking to dismantle unions and of being willing to let America “fall further behind” other countries by rejecting his brilliantly conceived infrastructure-spending proposals. “Up on Capitol Hill right now they (Republicans) seem to have exactly the opposite view,” said Obama in a speech before the AFL-CIO's Building and Construction Trades Department in Washington, D.C. “They voted to cut spending on transportation infrastructure by almost 30 percent. That means instead of putting more construction workers back on the job, they want to lay more off.” He went on, “Instead of breaking ground on new projects, they want to let existing projects grind to a halt,” he said. “Instead of making the investments we need to get ahead, they’re willing to let us all fall further behind.” Who else but those to whom he was speaking would be buying any of this ridiculous election year crap? Probably not very many. At least I'd like to think that's the case. We can no longer afford to fall for such idiotic nonsense.

But our buddy Barry was far from being finished as he went on to say that the GOP wants to maintain tax cuts for the wealthy instead of spend more on infrastructure. “Republicans in Congress would rather put fewer of you to work building fewer things than ask millionaires and billionaires to live without massive new tax cuts,” Barry said. Adding, “They’ve also set their sights on dismantling unions like yours.” And he actually went so far as to say, “After all you’ve done to build and protect the middle class, they make the argument you’re responsible for the problems facing the middle class. Somehow that makes sense to them.” Republicans have opposed Democratic measures in Congress to eliminate the secret ballot in union elections through the proposed “card check,” arguing the lack of a secret ballot would most assuredly allow intimidation of workers by corrupt union bosses desperate to increase union membership. Furthermore, Republicans have supported legislation that would eliminate compulsory union membership as a condition of employment, better known as “right to work” laws. Both are measures that make sense if we are to have any hope of getting this country back on sound economic footing.

“I believe our economy is stronger when workers are getting paid good wages and good benefits,” Barry said. “I believe the economy is stronger when collective bargaining rights are protected. I believe all of us are better off when we have broad-based prosperity that grows outward from a strong middle class, I believe when folks try and take collective bargaining rights away by passing so-called ‘right to work’ laws that might also be called ‘right to work for less laws,’ that’s not about economics – it’s about politics.” So-called 'right to work' laws? What's so-called about such laws? Barry also took the opportunity to boast that he has taken action in lieu of Congress backing his proposal for more infrastructure spending. “But we can’t wait for Congress to do its job. You can’t afford to wait,” Barry said. “And where Congress won’t act, I will. That’s why I’ve taken steps on my own to speed up loans and competitive grants for projects across the country that will support thousands of jobs. And that’s why we’re cutting through red tape and launching several existing projects faster and more efficiently." I'm sure this all serves as being music to the ears of those in attendance, but it's the death knell to the rest of us.

So once again Barry very clearly demonstrated that he is not only willing, but eager, to throw hard working Americans under the bus if it will help get the unions behind him in the coming election. I think that many Americans recognize the fact that today's unions have now pretty much outlived their usefulness. They've morphed beyond what their initial charters once mandated to become, today, nothing more than the official goon squad of the Democrat Party. Union membership in the private sector is now at an all time low and still shrinking, while in the public sector union membership has continued to remains steady or to grow. In 2011, the union membership rate--the percent of wage and salary workers who were members of a union--was 11.8 percent, essentially unchanged from 11.9 percent in 2010, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported. The number of wage and salary workers belonging to unions, at 14.8 million, also showed little movement over the year. In 1983, the first year for which comparable union data are available, the union membership rate was 20.1 percent and there were 17.7 million union workers. So we can see the incentive here for gaining such things as "card check".


According to the labor bureau, 7.2 percent of private-sector workers were union members last year, and that's down from 7.6 percent the previous year. That, labor historians said, was the lowest percentage of private-sector workers in unions since 1900. So hence the rationale for union leadership's current full court press to boost the union ranks, and Barry is only too happy to assist in any way he can. But at what expense to our already struggling economy? I know Barry is wanting us all to now be focused "Forward", but what we need to be doing is looking back, so that we can understand how it is that we got here. And unions have played a very big role in our now essentially drowning under the weight of having to cover the costs of what are exorbitant pay and benefits packages for unionized public sector employees. When those in the public sector are already making more than double that of those picking up the tab, I think it very safe to say that the time has now arrived for a course correction. And part of that course correction is ridding ourselves of Barry "Almighty", attaining a Republican majority in the Senate while maintaining or building upon the current majority in the House.

!!!FORWARD!!!


Apparently Team Obama has now settled on what it perceives as being a captivating slogan for the 2012 campaign. And, I might add, a very interesting choice it is. No mention of America, nothing motivational or Reagan-esque, just another mindless, vague and generic bumper sticker moniker. Apparently, during the decision making process that went on in selecting this new campaign slogan, little or no time was spent looking back into history, or maybe there was, where it might have been discovered that the word has a very long and storied association with European Marxism. Many Communist and radical publications and entities throughout the 19th and 20th centuries had the name "Forward!" or its foreign cognates. Wikipedia has an entire section called "Forward (generic name of socialist publications)." "The name Forward carries a special meaning in socialist political terminology. It has been frequently used as a name for socialist, communist and other left-wing newspapers and publications," the online encyclopedia explains. But with most Americans being ignorant of all things involving history, they're completely ignorant of the significance here.

Even the most casual of glances back in time would have revealed the fact that the slogan, "Forward!", reflected the conviction of European Marxists and radicals that their movements reflected the march of history, which would move forward past Capitalism and into Socialism and Communism. Team Barry "Almighty" released its new campaign slogan Monday in a 7-minute video. The title card has simply the word "Forward" with the "O" having the familiar Obama logo from 2008. It will be played at rallies this weekend that mark the Barry's re-election campaign's official beginning. There have been at least two radical-left publications named "Vorwaerts", the German word for "Forward". One was the daily newspaper of the Social Democratic Party of Germany whose writers included such characters as Friedrich Engels and Leon Trotsky. It still publishes as the organ of Germany's SDP, though that party has changed considerably since World War II. Another was the 1844 biweekly reader of the Communist League. Karl Marx, Engels and Mikhail Bakunin are among the names associated with that little publication.

And then it was back in the glory days of communist East Germany that the country named its Army soccer club ASK Vorwaerts Berlin (later FC Vorwaerts Frankfort). And then how can we forget Vladimir Lenin, that inspirational hero of the Democrat Party, who founded the publication "Vpered", which is the Russian word for "forward", in 1905. There was also a Soviet propaganda film-maker, Dziga Vertov, who made a documentary whose title is sometimes translated as "Forward, Soviet". Conservative critics of the Barry "Almighty" administration have noted his numerous ties to radicalism and socialists throughout both his time in the White House as well as during the years before he was "elected". The many examples of Barry's ties to radicals range from his first political campaign being launched from the living room of two former Weather Underground members, to appointing as green jobs czar Van Jones, a self-described communist. And let's not forget why Barry seems to be so intent on focusing forward. The following are 35 shocking statistics that prove that things have gotten worse in America….

#1 Median household income in the United States is down 7.8 percent since December 2007 after adjusting for inflation.
#2 There are 5.6 million less jobs than there were when the last recession began back in late 2007.
#3 The U.S. government says that the number of Americans “not in the labor force” rose by 17.9 million between 2000 and 2011. During the entire decade of the 1980s, the number of Americans “not in the labor force” rose by only 1.7 million.
#4 In 2007, the unemployment rate for the 20 to 29 age bracket was about 6.5 percent. Today, the unemployment rate for that same age group is about 13 percent.
#5 In 2007, 73.2 percent of all young adults between the ages of 18 and 24 that were not enrolled in school had jobs. Today, that number has declined to 65 percent.
#6 Back in the year 2000, more than 50 percent of all Americans teens had a job. This past summer, only 29.6% of all American teens had a job.
#7 When Barry "Almighty" entered the White House, the number of “long-term unemployed workers” in the United States was approximately 2.6 million. Today, that number is sitting at 5.6 million.
#8 The average duration of unemployment in the United States is nearly three times as long as it was back in the year 2000.
#9 Back in 1950, more than 80 percent of all men in the United States had jobs. Today, less than 65 percent of all men in the United States have jobs.
#10 According to the Barry "Almighty" administration, about 20 percent of all jobs in the United States were manufacturing jobs back in the year 2000. Today, only about 5 percent of all jobs in the United States are manufacturing jobs.
#11 Sadly, more than 56,000 manufacturing facilities in the United States have been shut down since 2001 with many of those closings taking place since Barry came into office.
#12 Back in 1980, less than 30% of all jobs in the United States were low income jobs. Today, more than 40% of all jobs in the United States are low income jobs.
#13 The U.S. trade deficit with China during 2011 was 28 time larger than it was back in 1990.
#14 About twice as many new homes were sold in the United States in 1965 as are being sold today.
#15 Home prices in the 4th quarter of 2011 were four percent lower than they were during the 4th quarter of 2010. Overall, U.S. home prices are 34 percent lower than they were back at the peak of the housing bubble.
#16 The total value of household real estate in America has declined from $22.7 trillion in 2006 to $16.2 Trillion today.
#17 At the end of 2011, 22.8 percent of all homes in the United States with a mortgage were in negative equity. That would have been unthinkable a decade or two ago.
#18 Total home mortgage debt in the United States is now about 5 times larger than it was just 20 years ago.
#19 Total consumer debt in the United States has increased by a whopping 1700% since 1971.
#20 Since the beginning of 2009, the average price of a gallon of gasoline in the United States has increased by over 100 percent.
#21 The number of children living in poverty in the state of California has increased by 30 percent since 2007.
#22 Back in the year 2000, 11.3% of all Americans were living in poverty. Today, 15.1% of all Americans are living in poverty.
#23 In November 2008, 30.8 million Americans were on food stamps. Today, 46.5 Million Americans are on food stamps.
#24 The U.S. dollar has lost 96.2 percent of its value since 1900. Again, a good share of that taking place in just the last three years.
#25 In 1950, the United States was #1 in GDP per capita. Today, the United States is #13 in GDP per capita.
#26 According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 49 percent of all Americans live in a home that receives direct monetary benefits from the federal government. Back in 1983, less than a third of all Americans lived in a home that received direct monetary benefits from the federal government.
#27 In 1980, government transfer payments accounted for just 11.7% of all income. Today, government transfer payments account for more than 18 percent of all income.
#28 Federal housing assistance increased by a whopping 42 percent between 2006 and 2010.
#29 Medicare spending increased by 138 percent between 1999 and 2010.
#30 Back in 1990, the federal government accounted for 32 percent of all health care spending in America. Today, that figure is up to 45 percent and it is projected to surpass 50 percent very shortly if it hasn't already.
#31 Back in 1965, only one out of every 50 Americans was on Medicaid. Today, one out of every 6 Americans is on Medicaid, and things are about to get a whole lot worse. It is being projected that Obamacare will add 16 Million more Americans to the Medicaid rolls.
#32 Right now, spending by the federal government accounts for about 24 percent of GDP. Back in 2001, it accounted for just 18 percent.
#33 In 2004, the U.S. government had a budget deficit of a little over 412 Billion dollars. This year, the U.S. government will run a budget deficit of over 1.3 trillion dollars.
#34 In 2001, the U.S. national debt was less than 6 trillion dollars. Today, it is over $15 Trillion and it is increasing by about $150 Million every single hour.
#35 The U.S. national debt is now more than 22 times larger than it was when Jimmy Carter became president.

Now I will concede that while Barry may not be responsible for the initial creating or bringing about of some of these issues, he can, most definitely, be said to be responsible for having made nearly all them worse, much worse. So forward? Yes, by all means Barry wants us all to be very firmly looking forward and not back where we would quickly be reminded of all the damage that has been done to this country in just the last 3+ years. And unfortunately, all of the shocking statistics listed above don’t come anywhere near to fully capturing the horrible pain that many American families are having to endure because of sad shape that today's economy is in. Pain that has only been made significantly worse, courtesy of the many policies that have been put into place by Barry and his fellow Democrats. But if Barry does get re-elected, just what is it that any of us will have to really look forward to, exactly? Imagine having a Barry in the White House who doesn't have to worry about getting re-elected. To say that this coming election is crucial to our survival is an understatement. We simply cannot afford to be subjected to another 4 years of this.

MRS. OBAMA CLAIMS TO BE WORRIED ABOUT THE WORLD WE'LL LEAVE BEHIND IF...


Touting the fact that she is so very concerned about the world we will leave behind for our children, Mrs. "B" was recently out urging support for her husband’s re-election. Mrs. Barry "Almighty" told those gathered at a campaign event Monday* evening that the “kind of world we’ll be leaving for our children” was at stake. “[W]hether it’s health care or the economy, whether it’s education or foreign policy, the choice we make will determine nothing less than what kind of world we’ll be leaving for our children,” she told an Obama for America bowling fundraiser at New York’s Chelsea Piers complex. “In the end, it really boils down to one simple question: Will we continue all the change we’ve begun and the progress we’ve made? Or will we allow everything we’ve fought for to just slip away? But that is the choice we face.” She paints a pretty dire picture here, but unfortunately for her, just the opposite is true. The future for our children becomes considerably more bleak if Barry is re-elected.



And ya know, I thought it more than a just little funny when I read how it was that Mrs. "B" actually went so far as to describe Barry as sitting up late at night reading letters from struggling Americans. Come on, does she really think we're that stupid? Because I'll tell ya what, try as I might, that's certainly not the image I have of Barry. She described as a typical scenario one that has him reading “the letter from the woman dying of cancer whose insurance company won’t cover her care. Or the letter from the father struggling to pay his family’s bills. The letters from far too many young people with so much promise, but so few opportunities. And I hear the passion and determination in his voice. He says, ‘Michelle, it’s not right. We have got to fix this. We have so much more work to do.’ I couldn't help but to chuckle at this cockamamie little portrayal of Barry. Can't you all just picture him sitting there, all slumped over his desk, tears streaming down his face, as he reads all of these letters?


But she was far from being done as she continued with some of the most idiotic drivel in her pathetic attempt to portray Barry as being something that he most definitely is not. She said “Well, that’s what he carries with him every single day – it is our collection of struggles and hopes and dreams.” Adding, “and that’s why, even in the hardest moments, when it seems like all is lost, Barack Obama never loses sight of the end goal. He never gets caught up in the chatter and the noise. He just keeps moving forward. He just keeps fighting for our children and for our future.” Man, don't that just bring a tear to your one good eye? What this guy is committed to achieving is the complete obliteration of the future. He's working to ensure that our children will essentially be made wards of an all powerful, all knowing, and all seeing federal bureaucracy. That's been his goal from the start. He is determined in his efforts to get as many of us as possible firmly ensnared in the tentacles of his rapidly expanding government.


Mrs. "B" talks of the need to "continue all the change we’ve begun and the progress we’ve made." Look around you, folks, anybody seeing any of that progress that she's talking about? And where's any evidence that those "changes" to which she so fondly refers, that have all taken place over the course of the last three years, have produced results for the economy or our continuing financial mess, that can, in any way, be considered as positive? There is none. Zero, zip, zilch, nadda! Who among us can rightfully say that we are better off today than we were before this socialist zealot came into office? And how much worse are things going to be for our kids and grand kids if this train wreck of a presidency is allowed to continue for four more years? Now maybe, since she was playing to what was most certainly a friendly crowd, she felt comfortable in blathering on with what was nothing more than utter nonsense, but it ain't flying with us out here in the real world.


In Mrs. Barry “Almighty’s” stating that the 2012 election will determine “the kind of world we’ll be leaving for our children” she was, in fact, making a very true and accurate assessment regarding the crucial nature of our next election. That is, in fact, exactly what this next election is all about. It's about whether or not we will have the courage to protect future generations from what it is that Barry wishes to inflict upon them. This election may very well prove to be our last opportunity to begin what will most assuredly be the long, slow, and very painful process of turning back this socialistic nightmare that Barry now has underway. Mrs. "B" talks of all those struggling Americans, but it's because of her husband's policies that so many Americans today now find themselves in their current situation. If Barry does get reelected our children and even our grandchildren will be buried under what is a mountain of debt that has been created by Barry. They will have less freedom, have more of their daily lives “controlled” by the government and they will be forced to live under a level of tyranny never before experienced by those living in this country. So I ask you, what will the world that we leave behind, look like? Who's vision is it, that will become a reality?






* Monday’s big event, was of course another fundraiser for the Obama Victory Fund 2012, offered guests VIP status, including bowling and a photo with the first lady for $5,000. Guests wanting to bowl were charged $250 and tickets for watching were priced at $150.

16 AND COUNTING…VACATIONS, THAT IS…


Ah, the rigors of being the First Lady, it's enough to just flat wear your big ass out. So it is then with the economy very firmly on its knees, thanks to her husband, and many American families now in the position of having to forgo their annual vacations, again because of her husband, we once again have our esteemed First Lady out there enjoying vacation number 16 and all since her husband first came into office. Barely a month after returning from a rather luxurious Christmas break in Hawaii, we find Mrs. Barry on holiday once again, her destination of choice this time is the rather exclusive Colorado ski resort of Aspen. Mrs. Barry "Almighty" is spending Presidents' Day weekend in the upscale resort with her daughters, Sasha and Malia, and was seen hitting the slopes on Saturday. The Secret Service have been in town for the past few days scoping out safe places for the family to "relax." Yup, it's good to be Queen and to be able to enjoy all of the fringe benefits that goes with the title. A good gig if you can get it.



Pitkin County Sheriff, some fella named Joe DiSalvo, confirmed Mrs. Barry had arrived Friday afternoon, saying, 'it's a privilege to have the first lady here.' He told the Aspen Daily News he met with Secret Service officers and has placed seven of his deputies at the service of the First Family. A privilege? The Sheriff must be a Democrat. Anyway, Mrs. Barry and kids are staying at the home of Jim and Paula Crown, owners of the Aspen Skiing Co, the Daily News reported. Last year Mrs. Barry gave a little speech at their home, in front of roughly 150 supporters. Each attendee coughed up between $1,000 and $10,000 to attend the little soiree, that was essentially a joint fundraiser for the DNC and Barry’s 2012 presidential campaign. The holiday is not the first time the first girls have been on skis. Their first attempt came in Feb 2010 when she took the girls to Liberty Mountain Resort, in Carroll Valley, Pa. just is 60 minutes from the White House. This time around I guess a more exotic, as well as more costly, locale was required.


Also, it was just last year that Mrs. Barry took the kids to Vail and Beaver Creek on a Presidents' Day break, just days after Barry "Almighty" tried to peddle his cost-cutting budget to the American people by asking them to stay at home. 'If you’re a family trying to cut back, you might skip going out to dinner, or you might put off a vacation,’ he said. Once again while Barry returned to the White House after a fundraising trip to West Coast, the rest of his family headed to Colorado, rather than visiting slopes closer to Washington in Virginia or Pennsylvania. Their trip came despite previous criticisms over the family's extravagant vacations, including a trip last summer to Martha's Vineyeard where the family rented a farm estate for around $50,000 a week Mrs. Barry also raised eyebrows when for the second year in a row she left earlier than her husband for their annual Christmas holiday in Hawaii, incurring additional expenses of an estimated $100,000. That little 17 day holiday is estimated to have cost taxpayers $4 Million.


I can only assume that our illustrious First Lady is a very firm believer in that old adage, "There's no such thing as taking too many vacations, especially when they are all on somebody else's dime." These people, Barry "Almighty" and family, are the epitome of the Democrat Party, in that they firmly believe why spend your own money when you can spend someone else's. I guess what they expect from us is the we take some level of solace in the fact that at least someone gets to on a vacation, or perhaps they expect the rest of us to somehow be satisfied with living vicariously through them as they go on one exotic vacation after another. Personally I like to enjoy my vacations in the first person, not by trying to enjoy myself by watching others enjoy themselves while at some resort I'll never make it to because I may no longer be employed. And can you possibly image the uproar if we ever had a Republican president who had chalked up 16 vacations in the span of less than 3 years? There would be calls for impeachment coming from any number of Democrats as well as the state-controlled media.

Payment for the secret service team ran at around $281 each - nearly $98,000 for the duration of the summer break.
Use of Air Force Two comes in at $149,900 for the round trip, not including time on the ground.
Mrs. Barry's personal staff, of which there were an unknown number, should also be taken into account

MRS. OBAMA PROVES SHE'S AS SKILLED A LIAR AS HER HUSBAND...


Well it's now become very apparent that whatever it is that old Steny Hoyer is smokin, he is most definitely sharing it with Mrs. Barry "Almighty." Either that, or she has a pretty good stash of her own. I only say that because it's really the only explanation that I can come up with that would explain Mrs. Barry "Almighty's" recent comments regarding the "remarkable progress" that has taken place on the economy under the very skilled guidance of her Socialist husband. She made this rather idiotic assessment during a speech before, who else but, a small crowd of high-profile Hollywood elites in Los Angeles on Tuesday evening. So she was definitely in front of the right crowd to make such an obviously false assertion, since those to whom she was speaking couldn't care less about the damage that Barry has done to this country nor the plight of those being hurt by Barry's policies.



Doing her best to rewrite a history of the events that have taken place over the course of her husbands abysmal first, and hopefully last, term, Mrs. Barry said, "In the last three years, we've worked hard to get out of this mess and we've made some remarkable progress," to a group of about 135 loyal supporters at, what else but, another private campaign event for her husband. She listed those things that she referred to as being Barry's accomplishments, you know, things like his seizing control of our healthcare system, the yanking of troops from Iraq for what some describe as political purposes and the allowing of gays to now openly serve in the military among others which she stated were on the list of Barry's "promises kept." It was pretty much the same idiotic drivel Barry was heard to be saying when he last visited the land of the fruits, the nuts and the flakes.


According to various press reports, the Beverly Hills event included some pretty high-profile Hollywood luminaries including such top Barry donors as Jeffrey Katzenberg and Harvey Weinstein. Someone by the name of Joshua Radin performed before Obama spoke. Sorry if I'm showing my ignorance here by not knowing who this clown is, but if they're a supporter of Barry's, it's a pretty safe bet that I don't buy their shit anyway. Also in attendance were Netflix CEO Reed Hastings, music industry representatives Quincy Jones, Berry Gordy and Jerry Ross, film producer Steve Bing, Rob and Michele Reiner and Will Ferrell's wife, Vivica. "You’re here because you know that we stand at a fundamental crossroads for our country," Mrs. Barry told them. "You’re here because you know that in less than a year from now, we are going to make a choice that will impact our lives for decades to come." RIGHT!


She spoke about the struggles of the middle class and of hearing their stories as she traveled the country. Which is something, quite frankly, I'm surprised to hear that she able to get it out with a straight face, if in fact she did. This entire crowd, including Mrs. Barry, couldn't care less about the struggles on the middle class. She went on to say Barry's "toughness and fight" comes from hearing the stories of struggling Americans. "I hear the passion and the determination in [Obama's] voice," she said. "He says, 'You won’t believe what folks are still going through.' That’s what he tells me. He says, 'Michelle, this ain’t right, and we have to fix this. We have so much more work to do.' " Actually what "ain't right" are his continuing efforts to "fundementall transform" this country into another Europe. Everything Barry has done, has only served to make the lives of those in the middle class so much more difficult?

NO LIE TOO BIG TO TELL FOR OUR FIRST LADY…


We now have something new coming from the person who stated that, for her entire life, there had been absolutely nothing about her country that could be said to have made her proud of her country, at least up until that point in time when her socialist husband was running for president. Now, as our current First Lady, Mrs. Barry "Almighty," has suggested that a Republican victory in the 2012 presidential election would result in curbs on freedom of speech and of religion. Can you believe it? Aren't those exactly the types of things that her husband is busy trying to inflict? Anyway, speaking at a recent fundraiser at some private residence somewhere in Tampa, Mrs. Barry "Almighty" spoke specifically of the power of the president to appoint members of the Supreme Court. She clearly indicated that a Republican would select justices who would attack basic First Amendment rights, saying, “that’s what’s at stake” in this election.



The White House transcript of the little get together was made available and what she said it goes like this: "Let’s not forget about what it meant when my husband appointed those two brilliant Supreme Court justices — (applause) — and for the first time in history, our daughters — and our sons — watched three women take their seats on our nation’s highest court. (Applause.) But more importantly, let’s not forget the impact those decisions will have on our lives for decades to come — on our privacy and security, on whether we can speak freely, worship openly, and love whomever we choose. That is what’s at stake here. (Applause.)" I'd be curious to know just who these people were who were doing all of this applauding. I mean, are they really so stupid as to believe any of what she was saying? Really? Here she is telling these people that it's the Republican who are going to be doing exactly what it is that her husband is doing now! Except, I suppose, for the gay inference being made here.


Mrs. Barry "Almighty's" contention here is that Republican justices, in other words, conservatives who interpret the Constitution as written and not imagined, would set about curtailing people’s abilities to “love whomever we choose,” and she appears to suggest that Republicans would go beyond opposition to gay marriage and even move to limit gay relationships. Barry "Almighty" himself claims he opposes gay marriage, although he's pretty much thrown the "Defense of Marriage Act" squarely under the proverbial bus in his effort to pander to gays, so her suggestion that Republican-selected justices would jeopardize the ability to “love whomever we choose” cannot possibly refer to gay marriage. And being much like her spouse who is never one to let an opportunity for playing the race card go by, Mrs. Barry, also posits racism on the part of Republicans, indicating their policies would lead to discrimination against children based on “what they look like." Yup, stand by, we're headed back to the good old days of segregation with those old racist, homophobic Republicans leading the way!


So then this moron goes on to ask, "Will we be a country where opportunity is limited to just the few at the top? Who are we? Or will we give every child a chance to succeed no matter where they’re from, or what they look like or how their money parents are — have. Who are we?" So once again our stellar First Lady very clearly demonstrates just how little class she actually possesses. It kinda makes you wonder just how shallow one person can be, when all she can do is to look at black Americans and tell them such obvious lies. And she knows that what she's telling them are lies, but it's now gotten to the point where this is all these people have. It's sad really to think that a ploy such as this would even continue to work in the 21st century and that we would have someone in her position who can so very easily, and I suppose you can agrue, somewhat callously, can lie to these people. But what's sadder is the fact that there remains enough people who still believe this kind of drivel.
