Obama the milkman

This is funny too..

Thinking Right from the Stimuls Package to Socialism

• GASP - There was abuse, fraud and waste in the Porkulus package? Could Obama be wrong and that government isn't efficient? Could it possibly be that anytime a government wants to run something (like my health care) that abuse, fraud and waste are a given? The answer is "YES!" There 88 active investigations across 29 federal agencies right now - according to the GAO. Gasp, and this is just the 9th month of this blasted thing. We still have five more years to watch this wasteful program destroy America...
• Iraq - Good job Obama! You've managed to park America's elite on the sidelines in Iraq and remove any political clout we had. So now, the world watches as the Sunnis, Shite and Kurds start disintegrating into their factious self again. The January election has been sidelined and now Sunni lawmakers have walked out of the legislation to protest the current structure of any vote. Things were coming back to normal in Iraq and Obama seems to be doing everything he can to push them to the brink of another civil war.
• Eric Holder believes we should try some of the most vile terrorist known in American courts. The military institution that has been used throughout history (even for American servicemen) just isn't good enough for him. So instead, 5 terrorist who already agreed to plead guilty in a military court - and go straight to the gallows - are now going to plead not guilty in Eric's court.
• The jobless rate rose to 10.2% in October. Our Deficit has risen to $13 Trillion dollars in 2009. So what does Obama do? He goes to Asia for a lovely visit. He delivers some fancy speeches. He tries desperately to ram socialist health care down our throat that will make a $13 trillion dollar deficit look like chump change. He delivers some more eloquent speeches. He is considering another Porkulus package because the first one apparently didn't waste enough. As Pelosi said, "Jobs, Jobs, Jobs"....But I guess Pelosi was blowing hot air and Obama wasn't listening...
• Did anyone catch the fact that Chrysler's five year car production schedule didn't include any electric cars? - As they had promised when they took the government bailout?
• I'm glad I'm not an auditor working for the Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board (The RAT Board). They admit their numbers are completely bogus but yet won't change them because of rules they created to keep them from having to change them. The stories keep on coming about how complex the forms are to fill out, how people knowingly falsified their report, how jobs are counted incorrectly....but 'sorry guys - the report is accurate except for the mistakes. Obama keeps using the bogus numbers... I smell a Ponzi scheme...
• Is anyone watching the Bolivian Government's election? Not only is this a farce for Democracy - it is sealing the fate for the Bolivian people. With Eva Morales now in firm control and manipulating (through blatant fraud) the election, Bolivia is now a dictatorship. Interesting enough - he isn't communist or socialist. He is more a mob boss. He kills protesters, blocks opposition, quiets dissent through intimidation and pretty much does what he wants. Thanks Obama for opening the door and allowing him to feel comfortable in his new life. Maybe we should extend a hand to Eva too - that way he can continue to grow opium without fear from America.
• The U.S. debt payment is set to spike (Good Job Obama - you did it!). We have the perfect storm of a ballooning short term borrowing coming due soon, a mountain of new debt, and interest rates ready to rise. This means, by the government's own admission that our debt payment will top out at $700 Billion in 9 years. This is an additional $500 Billion from today's fiasco. $500 billion is more than what we rake in taxes!!!! Thanks OBAMA and PELOSI!
• So far the open hand of friendship diplomacy hasn't done much except embolden our enemies, make fledgling democracies scared, made a mockery of America and ensure the rampant dissemination of nuclear technology around the globe. Iran's secret nuke sites keep popping up like gophers coming out of holes. Even the IRA is now back in the business of building bombs. Hmmm, I guess the lesson from Nazi Germany just wasn't a good enough lesson.
• I love Palin's book tour. Whether you like her or not - you gotta love her spunk! Every time I talk to a liberal about Palin - they hate her. They can't really tell me any facts or they distort facts - but they hate her. Keep going Palin!
• Is anyone watching what Ray LaHood (former Republican) is trying to do over at the DoT? His latest shtick is to create federal oversight of city subways. Now, I'm not a Constitutional Lawyer, but unless a subway crosses state lines, they have no - none - zip -nada - right to regulate subways. This is a state's right. This is more of Obama over stepping the Constitution and ensuring that the Federal government controls all part of society.

As you can tell from my last few posts and this one - I'm getting tired of Obama. At first I was upset that a socialist became my President....Now, I'm extremely upset. I might even go join the next tea party.

Barack - turning America into a joke...

Ann, I Loved the cartoons: Here are my favorites

Why did Obama go to Asia?

Obama went to Asia to do what?

A) Sightsee, see his half brother and walk on the Great Wall
B) Embolden human rights abuse
C) Show America is a weak country
D) Nothing diplomatic at all and stroke his ego
E) All of the above

E - Damnit - E

Sorry Obama! You don't go to China and not talk about Human Rights abuse. By your lack of actions, you have told Hu that it is okay to kill anyone he feels is a democratic reformer. Heck, why don't we send an emissary to Iran and help them kill their Democratic reformers. They are doing it anyway but this way we can let them know we agree it is the right thing to do! He not only didn't mention it, they didn't release a single political prisoner - like they did for every other President! Great work Obama. Tell China we don't give a crap who they kill. Let's stop their march towards Democracy! And to add insult to injury, Obama allowed Hu and his leadership team to suppress pretty much anything they wanted on his visit. There was no Bush or Clinton telling Hu in public that we disagreed on A, B, &C and want to see them change it in order for us to change our policies. Nope, it is just 'here is a hand - shake it - and we are best buds - kill who ever you want and walk on us - we don't care - because we have this hand of friendship!'

Usually when a CEO of a company or President of a Nation goes to see another company or another country - there is a reason. But not this time. For a President, there is usually a grand announcement that comes out of these meetings - an announcement based on negotiations that have been in the work for months or years. But not this time. No way. Obama holds talks behind closed doors and then comes out and gives a glamorous speech about ---- nothing. He sure is an eloquent talker - but good God son - where's the beef?

China has manipulated their currency for years - much to the chagrin of the American worker. Every President bitches about this - even Clinton. So what does Obama do? He doesn't say a word about it. He doesn't care that this is one of the factors in Americans losing their jobs. Uh wow! It might upset his host to actually talk anything of substance. Where is the outrage from the AFL-CIO?

Korea and Japan have been two of the best allies in Asia. I'm glad he at least visited them. So, what did he announce there? Or what of anything significant happened? Nothing...Not a damn thing. And even then he just touched down - looked around and left.

So, what was the purpose. The purpose was build the Obama brand and let the world know that he is King Obama - The man that will save the world from evil America. This really sucks. Let's let Obama travel the world and see it - maybe he'll stay out of country and quit wrecking the capitalism I love.

Isn't Socialism wonderful! Why does Obama think government is the answer?

Chavez is shutting down golf courses because he things people are lazy! Only 23 golf courses left in Venezuela...Thank goodness Obama plays golf

Chavez shuts down radio broadcasters that provide opposing views. Sounds like a few Democrat thoughts I've heard... Radio or TV

Chavez seizes a pasta plant because he wants prices to go down. Hmm, sound Obamian to me...

Chavez seizes a rice production facility because they sold rice at prices too high. He believes government can do it better. Sound familiar?

Chavez has made Venezuela the murder capital of the world. Hmm, the government has taken over every aspect of people's lives...why do they want to kill each other. Isn't it perfect utopia when government run things?

Chavez tells people to stop singing in the shower to save water. Wow what a great leader! Sounds eerily like some of what Obama says to me...

Chavez is seizing oil companies because they make to much profit. And he thinks government needs the money and can do better than private enterprise. Sound familiar?

Chavez seizes coffee bean production facilities because they priced their product at a profit. Government can now make coffee cheaper than private enterprise...

Obama - tear down this wall! Building socialism in America is not the way to run a prosperous country!

Reagen said it best...

"We welcome change and openness; for we believe that freedom and security go together, that the advance of human liberty can only strengthen the cause of world peace. There is one sign the Soviets can make that would be unmistakable, that would advance dramatically the cause of freedom and peace. General Secretary Gorbachev, if you seek peace, if you seek prosperity for the Soviet Union and eastern Europe, if you seek liberalization, come here to this gate. Mr. Gorbachev, open this gate. Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!"

My Neighbor's Wisdom...

I received this email from a friend. I couldn't agree with him more...


Didn't GWB catch a "little flack" for taking about four minutes to contemplate and gather his thoughts following the 9/11 attacks? And his first comments included empathy, prayers and next steps. This guy is so clueless, it has become scary. This is actually from an NBC news affiliate. http://www.nbcchicago.com/news/politics/A-Disconnected-President.html I know I'm preaching to the chior, but how did so many smart people enthusiastically support this maniac and his cronies?

CNN shows clear bias during recent campaign

I like CNN - but wow! Are they biased or what?! Wow! CNN is way too far to the left these days. As I said before - find a major political story on your favorite news site and then compare it to CNN. Look at both the headlines and the content. Amazingly CNN usually covers only half the story....the left half.

Take the election this past Tuesday as a good example. Here is a snippet of the front page of the CNN website.

To help with People's eye sight the headline of their top story reads: "Analysis: Election not a referendum on Obama"
The first paragraph of this article that is posted prominently on the front page reads: "Victories in New Jersey and Virginia gave a boost to the GOP ahead of the 2010 elections, but analysts say the results should not be interpreted as a blow to President Obama"

OH REALLY? Who were these Analyst that helped CNN come to this conclusion and craft CNN's headline? Let' see. They were CNN's own exit polls, a CNN survey, a Democratic strategists and grassroots activists, a consultant who works with conservative Democratic incumbents and challengers, and a founder of a major liberal political blog. I'm not making these sources up: They are all clearly credited with these findings in the article. The article then states the same thing -that this election won't hurt Obama - several different ways...

What were the top campaign stories on the other websites?

CNBC: Republicans Win Va., N.J. Governor's Races "Republicans rolled to victory in Virginia and New Jersey governor's races on Tuesday in a sharp blow to Democrats that showed the limits of U.S. President Barack Obama's political clout...." And the article continues on to describe how this election is a referendum on Obama .

MSNBC: A year after dousing, GOP’s hope rekindled: Coalition that swept Obama into White House was absent on Tuesday "The Republican victories in the races for New Jersey and Virginia governors put the party in a stronger position to turn back the political wave President Obama unleashed last year, setting the stage for Republicans to raise money, recruit candidates and ride the excitement of an energized base as the party heads into next year’s midterm elections. " So CNN's belief that this won't hurt Obama and help the Republican's is countered here.

FoxNews: Steele: Voters Spoke on Obama Policies; White House Brushes Off GOP Victories "Republican leaders have quickly sought to cast their gubernatorial victories in New Jersey and Virginia as the beginning of a resurgence for their party and a sign of trouble for President Obama while the White House argues that the results are not about the president. " Again another contradiction to CNN. This article shows the right's view, but it also clearly states the fact that it the view from the right: It doesn't use the nebulous "analysts say".

USAToday: Va., N.J. give GOP reason to celebrate "...The easy victory by Bob McDonnell in swing-state Virginia and the closer win by Chris Christie in Democratic-leaning New Jersey were a tonic for Republicans after stinging setbacks in 2008 and 2006. Republicans argued and Democrats disputed that the pair of contests reflected voters' early judgment on Obama's presidency and signaled what would happen in next year's congressional races...." Hmm, Another strike for CNN: Has CNN totally missed the story or are they catering to the left?

Every major news article describes how this is a referendum on Obama. However, CNN doesn't see it this way. Even the House Democrats see it this way. With 16 hours of the election results the House decided to put the Health Care bill up for a vote within 72 hours. They know that they need to get this vote behind them quickly - long before they face their reelection in 2010. I think only Nancy Pelosi and CNN is calling this a victory for Obama. Why CNN is choosing to be way left of center in the news - I don't understand....

I don't believe Obama did "create or save" 650,000 jobs.

Saved Jobs! This came in this morning over the CNN Breaking News flash. I woke up - opened my email and read it: -- White House says 650,000 jobs were created or saved by $150 billion in stimulus funds.

Am I happy? For 650,000 people this could be (stress "could be") some good news. But let me take off my Rose colored Obama glasses.

First, The White House has stated that many of these jobs were federal, state, or local government jobs. Let's just assume less than half, 300,000, are government jobs - jobs that create no wealth in America. And if you do the math, each job cost us only $230,769.23. Since these jobs create no wealth and cannot drive any revenue in society we must assume that these jobs will cost us $69 Billion dollars this year - next year - and every year thereafter. So in effect, this explosive government growth is going to cost us $1 Trillion dollars within a decade. This is job growth that I don't want.

Second, Everyone should be suspect of the term "saved" jobs. Every job in America has basically been on the brink and can now be categorized as a "saved job". This is actually a politically genies thing for Obama to say. You can measure how many jobs are created between two points in time, but there is no way to measure how many jobs are "saved". I find it ironic that with unemployment still rising that any person believes in this metric. It's kind of like the musicians playing their music on the Titanic as is listed to one side. I'm glad the President had put a focus on saving American jobs: He just has gone about it all wrong. Completely backwards! You "save" American jobs by promoting an economy that rewards risk and incentivizes innovation. You don't "save" American jobs by creating more government, more regulation and higher taxes. There was a country called the USSR that did this and some people can remember what happened to them.

Third, the pundits are already finding some major errors in the calculations. In my home state of Georgia, a community college reportedly creating 280 jobs but no one can find these people anywhere on campus. A Florida day care center said it "saved" 129 jobs but at the same time gave raises that are almost equal to the money they received. A French vaccine maker received a $1.4 billion check. But the truth later emerged that it in fact received one-100th of that amount. Obama will keep the list of saved jobs secret because this is his way of making things transparent - like he promised. If you can't see it - it must be transparent. Conservatives will slowly pick a part this secret list and we'll eventually get a look at how bogus claims are being created to create these quarter million dollar a year jobs.

Socialism is not the direction my America should be headed. I thought the government that obfuscates facts, creates a false economic model, and destroys innovation was in Venezuela or Bolivia. I didn't think my country would follow their lead.

CHANGE you can't believe in - like you HOPEd

Obama ran on a platform of Change and Hope. His mantra was all about changing the way Washington does business. There was even the www.change.gov website that was set up to talk about how Washington was going to change under an Obama/Biden rule. Maybe I'm crazy and making this up, but I thought he said something about ending partisanship and making government more transparent.

I think everyone who knows me - knows where I'm headed with this. Obama has made charges all right. He has taken partisan politics to a low I have never seen. His hope strategy is a complete failure. He now realizes that not everyone in America agrees with his socialist agenda. And finally, his inability to change how government works is infuriating. What is interesting in all of this - is how this is all ignored by the liberals. Even the media keeps reporting that 'those evil Republicans are voting against Obama - not his great ideas. They just want him to fail'

Shouldn't someone in the media be looking at this a bit different? Perhaps they should be asking if Obama's core message/promise to America has even come close to being met? If his promise of change or hope had been met - don't you think Obama's approval ratings would be going up or remain flat?

Let's just explore the "changes" he talked about...

Has he stopped "ear marks"? This is the one thing that makes both Democrats and Republicans crazy. Not even close to making this change! For dollar volume they are a tad bit lower this year then they were during Bush's last year - but of course (crazy me) I consider the $787 Billion Stimulus package one huge ear mark. That is laden with pork projects. So for all practical purposes earmarks have gone up. So that is change I can believe in?

Has he helped deflate the partisan fighting? Nope. Seems worse to me. A USA Today poll showed that partisanship is at an all time high. I believe it.

Has he stopped the growth of the Federal Deficit? Hell no! My kids are going to pay for his lax attitude on fiscal discipline.

Has he made the inner workings of government more transparent? Not even come close to it. By drawing up enemies list, barring Republicans from key meetings, making decisions behind closed door, appointing large party contributors to ambassadorships etc, he has not changed government - if anything he is making it less transparent.

So apparently the change he talked about is just changing America to Socialism. Or maybe the Hope he talked about was his strategy. He hoped things would change if he did more of the same? So far I give Obama an "F" on his two promises to America. Again Obama says one thing and does another....

Is CNN biased?

CNN is a liberal news organization - period. CNN, their staunch liberal supporters and the White House can all try to tell me it isn't biased. But I won't buy that story. Let me plead my case.

First look at this major news section from October 28th: "The Obama Effect." Was there ever a "Bush" section like this? Is Obama so wonderful that CNN can only report positive stories such as these. Or perhaps there are two sides of the story and these headlines only are showing the liberal's view?

Anderson Cooper seems to be a nice chap, and he is considered one of the best reporters at CNN. He is theie rock star. But he is liberal - very liberal. Check out his section about "Letters to the President". I have gone through his letters to Obama, and he is basically using this as a platform to embrace Obama and deliver support for everything that Obama is doing. He makes excuses for not having enough H1N1 flu shots (#282). He says that taking a long time to make a decision on Afghanistan is a good thing (#281). He wants Obama to tell the world that people are employed and unemployment numbers aren't that bad (#280). #279 is non-political and is all about the Saints. #278 is telling Obama that even the best statesman get thrown off balance - so keep trekking. #277 is supporting Obama's Pay Czar decisions. Finally in #276 he speaks against the White House policy of attacking reporters in Fox News... I guess this isn't a surprise as reporters stick together.

Going through the remaining "letters", there are a few that criticize the Senate or the House. There are a few that come close to criticizing Obama, but the vast majority heap praise on Obama or support Obama's decisions . This is hardly a non-biased reporter. No matter how hard a reporter tries, their choice of words or their gestures imply support for their cause or disdain for the other side. Mr. Cooper will never be kicked out of the White House reporter pool.

Look at this headline from the 28th "Clinton arrives in Pakistan to write new chapter in relations". This headline could have been written by Clinton all by herself. Does this headline imply that Bush didn't support Pakistan, that Bush didn't give them buckets of money, that Bush didn't try to persuade them to fight Al Queda? So what is the difference in the new chapter? Nothing but different players. Compare this to Fox News which says this is just turning the page - not writing a whole new chapter - which has very different meanings: Clinton: U.S. 'Turning the Page' With Pakistan. Fox News also points out the problems between Pakistan and the U.S.. CNN just praises Clinton and promotes her mission. Who is more balanced?

On the 29th a major news headline read: "Obama signs hate crimes bill into law." I guess it doesn't matter to CNN that this is a small part of the law that Obama signed. The law was a Defense spending bill that authorized $680 billion in spending and "hate crime" was tagged on to it. CNN mentions this at the end of the article. It also mentions that Bush and the Republicans had blocked this legislation in the past. Let me compare this to the article from Fox News, entitled "Obama Signs Defense Policy Bill That Includes 'Hate Crime Legislation" , which discusses all aspects of the bill. Basically CNN is pandering to a liberal audience and making Obama out to be the Messiah by signing a hate crime bill. Fox News is more centrist and tells the overall story: It is a defense spending bill that includes a hate crime provision that conservatives don't like.

When you see a major political story on CNN: Read their headline and then go read Fox News' headline. CNN's headline will be more biased to the left. Then read both articles. Fox News continues to be balanced with all points covered. CNN's news seems to cater to their liberal base and not challenging the White House or Democrats. I'm biased, so I'm sure I read more into this then what is there. But it is clearly there....

Don't fear the wacko right...fear the wackos!

All my life the media has always talked about the right wing wackos...the gun toting right wing nuts...right wing fanatics...the right wing fringe and on and on and on. I've been told that these guys are the ones to look out for. They are crazy enough to kill a President. I just watched an Ann Coulter video, and she said that throughout our history it was the leftist wackos that have assassinated our Presidents. Could the media be wrong? Hmmm, so I did some research


ASSASSINATIONS:

• John F Kennedy was assassinated by Lee Harvey Oswald. Oswald, a lover of Communism, tried to move to Russia but was denied citizenship. Communisms is about as left as you can get. Ann was right on this one.
• James Garfield was assassinated by Charles Guiteau. Garfield was a Republican President and Charles was probably a Republican - but seems to be mostly a RINO. Garfield refused to give Charles a job, the Republicans cast him out of the party and he was banned from entering the White House. So he shot the Republican President. Ann was kind of wrong here - but not totally.
• William McKinley was assassinated by Leon Czolgosz - a vowed social anarchist. Social anarchist believe that individual freedom is conceptually connected with social equality and emphasize community and mutual aid. Ole Leon was an extreme leftist. Ann was right on this one too.
• Abraham Lincoln was assassinated by John Wilkes Booth. John was a stage actor and was upset that the South had lost the war. The South was the embodiment of the Democrat party and Abraham Lincoln was the first Republican President. Ann was right here.
  

ASSASSINATION ATTEMPTS

• Ronald Reagan (Republican) was shot at by John Hinckly. John's parents were Republican, but John choose to move to Hollywood and write songs (usually a strong characteristic of a leftist). By all accounts, at the time he shot Reagan - he was a delusional liberal. Ann was right
• Franklin Roosevelt was shot at with five bullets by Giuseppe Zangara. His motive and his political leanings are unknown. Many people suspect that the true target was the mayor of Chicago - who was shot and killed. This assassination attempt was more than likely due to gang warfare in Chicago and not related to politics. So, on this one it is a toss up, since no one knows the political leanings of the shooter.
• Andrew Jackson was shot at twice by Richard Lawrence. Both guns misfired. This guy was delusional. However, it sounds like he had liberal leanings because he gave up his job saying that he had no need to work as the government owed him money. He also said that when he received the money he would become the King of England. I won't say Ann was correct, but she definitely wasn't wrong - So, I'll call this a toss up too.
• Theodore Roosevelt was shot by John Schrank and survived. No one really knows what John's political thoughts were. It is known that he was a strong opponent of a sitting President's ability to seek a third term in office. During psychiatric testing, Schrank said that he was advised by the ghost of William McKinkley in a dream to avenge his death while pointing to a picture of Theodore Roosevelt. No one knows if Ann is correct so let's call this one a toss up too
• Gerald Ford had a pistol pointed at him by Lynette Fromme, a former member of the Manson family. Obviously she was a nut job too. But, by all indications she was a extreme liberal. I'm going to give this one to Ann. She was right.

I know there were attempts on many other Presidents including the Bush's and Clinton. But these were not close calls. What I discovered in my investigation is that it isn't the Right Wing Wackos that I or the President needs to be scared of. We need to be scared of the Wackos - which tend to come from the far left. I guess the media believes that since they used guns - they are from the right, but now I know better.

My Minsota cuz got rested

A northern Minnesota man has pleaded guilty to driving his motorized lounge chair while drunk.A criminal complaint says 62-year-old Dennis LeRoy Anderson told police he left the Keyboard Lounge in Proctor on his customized La-Z-Boy after drinking eight or nine beers.Prosecutors say Anderson's blood alcohol content was 0.29, more than three times the legal limit, when he crashed the lounge chair into a parked vehicle in August 2008.Proctor Deputy Police Chief Troy Foucault says the chair was powered by a converted lawnmower and was equipped with a stereo and cup holders.

I love America!
