Hillary and Co. are in full court cover up mode. For five long weeks they went out of their way to advance a knowingly false narrative without either concern for or outrage over "four dead Americans" (You know, Hillary, they do have names: Christopher Stevens, Sean Smith, Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods). Hillary in particular will hide her negligence, incompetence and disdain for the truth behind the dead bodies of Stevens, Smith, Doherty and Woods for as long as it takes.

0bama is a war criminal who signs executive orders that result in the WEEKLY "collateral damage" deaths of defenseless African and Middle Eastern children - none of them White, by the way - via drone bombings. Hillary's negligence and disregard for the officially documented security concerns of American military and diplomatic personnel in a known hotbed of Islamic extremism overseas caused their senseless deaths, despite the soon-to-be former Secretary of State's shrill rhetoric and tone during last week's congressional hearings on the Benghazi massacre.

The 0bama/Hillary media sycophants as well as their mindless enablers on the ground are not interested in the truth if it makes politicians like Hillary and 0bama look like the negligent and incompetent liars that they are. We have come along way from Watergate, a cover up where no Americans were murdered and at a time when citizens, politicians and the media as a whole knew better than to run cover for the President of the United States or members of his Cabinet who were engaged in perjury and obstruction of justice.

Generation Y: A Taste of What Is To Come for Generation Debt

All of the political posturing to avoid blame for a potentially self-induced recession resulted in$600 billion in tax hikes over 10 years and little to no spending cuts. The $60 billion a year in targeted taxes on “the rich” is merely a drop in the bucket against annual trillion-dollar deficits. The big loser in the “fiscal deal” was the generation that will spend their lives paying down tragically enormous levels of public debt. This debt payment burden will be so large in a few years that the future economy will be slower, the Debt-Paying Generation’s lifetime earnings will be smaller, and the quality of this generation’s life will be lower than any prior generation.

The name “Generation Y” has been given to the generation of young working adults under 35 who have been hit the hardest by the crippled job market. This generation of workers faces a bleak future that will most likely be “permanently depressed” by economic policies fabricated for their rhetorical qualities rather than their merits in producing economic opportunity and upward mobility. Since 2007, the average income for those aged 25–34 has fallen 8.2 percent—a decline twice as large as the 3.9 percent decline for the rest of the adult population. Even now, unemployment for those aged 20–24 and 25–34 remains at 13.7 percent and 7.7 percent, respectively—a stark contrast to the 6.1 percent unemployment rate for the rest of adults. [More ...]

Will these fools ever realize they voted themselves into an irrevocable state of permanent economic depression and government dependency as the norm? I mean, if they are clueless now, what hope is there that they will come to the understanding that they gave political power to the ideological thugs and political goons responsible for their own economic misery in the near future?

Nothing Is Certain Except More Debt and Taxes

Businesses have been waiting to see whether a second Obama administration will encourage the economy. During the fiscal-cliff negotiations, however, the president made clear that his goal isn't to get business going again but instead to expand government and redistribute income. He offered no real spending cuts and instead used the year-end deadline to divide America into classes—to the point of campaigning on New Year's Eve against higher earners. Though the president talks about fairness, his policies penalize profit and investment. This hurts aspiring Americans more than it hurts those who have already made it.

The more I educate and inform myself, the more distrustful I become of politicians of all stripes. The more ignorant, uninformed and unwilling to divest themselves of tried and proven policies those who place their faith in government become, the more foolish they look.

It was a matter of time but it's finally happened. The statists' obeisance to government has reached such a low point that they are now reduced to affirming with religious fervor that skyrocketing deficits, unsustainable debt, confiscatory taxes and the growing welfare dependence mentality don't matter because ... wait for it ... America is "too big to fail."

0bama: War Criminal in Chief

2012-12-14T23:26:00.000-06:00

Barack 0bama is a murderous hypocrite. Every Tuesday is "Kill List" day at the White House. That's when 0bama decides when and where drone attacks will take place. Invariably those drone attacks involve the "collateral damage" deaths of as many if not more innocent children than the ones who were gunned down in Connecticut today.

Sadly, though not surprisingly, Barack 0bama is not above exploiting this tragedy where children are the victims of mass murder for political advantage.

Rice Withdrawal Marks End Of Benghazi Scandal

WASHINGTON — U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice’s decision to remove her name from consideration for the post of Secretary of State effectively caps a three-month administration scandal over the Benghazi terrorist attack.

Rice, who was selected by the administration to address the Sept. 11 attack on the five Sunday morning shows in the immediate aftermath of the attack, found herself in hot water after her appearance for minimizing the role of extremists groups in the attack that killed four Americans, including the U.S. Ambassador to Lybia.

Fall Gal

Truth be told, 0bama threw Susan Rice under the bus way before she fell on her sword over the Benghazi massacre. 0bama wants to bury the scandal. Besides, Rice already served her purpose when she went out into the media to propagate a knowingly false narrative of the Benghazi bloodbath with 0bama's blessing. Confirmation hearings before a congressional committee would only dredge up more of the incompetence, negligence and lies that resulted in the bloody murders of Christopher Stephens, Sean Smith, Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods.

U.S.-Approved Arms for Libya Rebels Fell Into Jihadis’ Hands

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration secretly gave its blessing to arms shipments to Libyan rebels from Qatar last year, but American officials later grew alarmed as evidence grew that Qatar was turning some of the weapons over to Islamic militants, according to United States officials and foreign diplomats.

No evidence has emerged linking the weapons provided by the Qataris during the uprising against Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi to the attack that killed four Americans at the United States diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya, in September.

But in the months before, the Obama administration clearly was worried about the consequences of its hidden hand in helping arm Libyan militants, concerns that have not previously been reported. The weapons and money from Qatar strengthened militant groups in Libya, allowing them to become a destabilizing force since the fall of the Qaddafi government.

Concerns that have not previously been reported? Whatever happened to transparency? This is beyond criminal negligence. It's an impeachable offense.

Forward! ... Uh, wait.

American Households Hit 43-Year Low in Net Worth

WASHINGTON (CBS DC) – The median net worth of American households has dropped to a 43-year low as the lower and middle classes appear poorer and less stable than they have been since 1969.

According to a recent study by New York University economics professor Edward N. Wolff, median net worth is at the decades-low figure of $57,000 (in 2010 dollars). And as the numbers in his study reflect, the situation only appears worse when all the statistics are taken as a whole. [More]

Black Unemployment is Evidence of 0bama's Racism

2012-11-24T19:59:00.002-06:00

A recent post of mine on Blogger brought on the following enlightened comment from a "progressive" 0bama worshiper:

"Oh shut the hell up, you racist idiot! You are a disrespectful disgrace to the American experiment in democracy."

Apparently even Blacks who question 0bama's competence as president and commitment to American principles are not safe from the "racist" label.

I propose adding a couple of categories of people to the definition of "racist": (1) any president whose failed economic policies result in Black unemployment at 14% or above; also, (2) anyone who either supports or enables said president and policies.

Uh. Wait a minute. That would make Barack Hussein 0bama and his worshipers "racists," right? That can't be.

Intel Officials "Unable" To Say Who Changed CIA Talking Points On Libya, Lawmaker Says

Former CIA Director David Petraeus stoked the controversy over the Obama administration's handling of the Libya terror attack, testifying Friday that references to "Al Qaeda involvement" were stripped from his agency's original talking points -- while other intelligence officials were unable to say who changed the memo, according to a top lawmaker who was briefed.

2012-11-14T21:01:00.000-06:00

How Much Did I Accomplish?

"I have come to one firm conviction after these many years of trying to figure out 'the plain truth of things.' The best chance for achieving peace and prosperity, for the maximum number of people world-wide, is to pursue the cause of LIBERTY."

"I have thought a lot about why those of us who believe in liberty, as a solution, have done so poorly in convincing others of its benefits. If liberty is what we claim it is- the principle that protects all personal, social and economic decisions necessary for maximum prosperity and the best chance for peace- it should be an easy sell. Yet, history has shown that the masses have been quite receptive to the promises of authoritarians which are rarely if ever fulfilled."

Authoritarianism vs. Liberty

"Freedom, private property, and enforceable voluntary contracts, generate wealth. In our early history we were very much aware of this. But in the early part of the 20^th century our politicians promoted the notion that the tax and monetary systems had to change if we were to involve ourselves in excessive domestic and military spending. That is why Congress gave us the Federal Reserve and the income tax. The majority of Americans and many government officials agreed that sacrificing some liberty was necessary to carry out what some claimed to be “progressive” ideas. Pure democracy became acceptable."

"The wealth that we enjoyed and seemed to be endless, allowed concern for the principle of a free society to be neglected. As long as most people believed the material abundance would last forever, worrying about protecting a competitive productive economy and individual liberty seemed unnecessary."

The Age of Redistribution

"The crisis arrived because the illusion that wealth and prosperity would last forever has ended. Since it was based on debt and a pretense that debt can be papered over by an out-of-control fiat monetary system, it was doomed to fail. We have ended up with a system that doesn’t produce enough even to finance the debt and no fundamental understanding of why a free society is crucial to reversing these trends."

We Need an Intellectual Awakening

"If it’s not accepted that big government, fiat money, ignoring liberty, central economic planning, welfarism, and warfarism caused our crisis we can expect a continuous and dangerous march toward corporatism and even fascism with even more loss of our liberties. Prosperity for a large middle class though will become an abstract dream."

"Everyone claims support for freedom. But too often it’s for one’s own freedom and not for others. Too many believe that there must be limits on freedom. They argue that freedom must be directed and managed to achieve fairness and equality thus making it acceptable to curtail, through force, certain liberties."
