First time in History

For the first time an American President who is a Republican has been been indicted on criminal charges after leaving office! Democrats have indicted the former President, who is running against the current Democrat President, on flimsy charges dating back 8 years. (The statue of limitations, if this was a crime, has run out and if it was a crime it was a federal one not a state crime. The Feds have already looked in this issue and dropped it) >The chargers are he mislabeled an expense in his business records, which isn't a crime, but because this mislabeling was done to cover up something else, that isn't a crime,to effect something else ...which isn't a crime but when done together, they claim ,is a crime! It boils down to in the business records of Trumps business a payment his lawyer made was listed as legal expense and because they say it was done to help his campaign for President in 2016 it should have been listed as a campaign expense! So for that reason they seek to put him in jail! A former President of the United States of America! By the way he was one of the best Presidents this country has seen. He didn't take a paycheck but rather donated his paycheck to different areas of the government. He did things to help the citizens of this country, built up the military, stood strong on the world stage and started no wars , reduced hostilities and started building a wall at the southern border of the United States! In fact he reduced the number of illegal crossing into the Unite States of America to some of it's lowest levels ever.Those seeking asylum were to remain in Mexico until the courts could hear their case. Which by the way cut down on the numbers dramatically! ( It reduced the incentives for those who were trying to illegally break into the country! Since he was a prominent businessman the country was run more efficiently and tax money was used more effectively. The economy was robust to say the least and other than ridiculous claim against the president by those who power we must assume was being threatened it was a good times for the American people! It's hard to pinpoint exactly why many in the government were threatened but its pretty clear they didn't want "outsiders" looking into "things" going on in the government and they wanted him out of the picture! This is going down in the History of the United States of America as one of the dumbest thing ever attempted by a political party against a candidate and former President of the United States of America of the opposing party, Who, by the way, is leading in all the current polls!

Hello,
This is an old blog hasn't been used much recently but perhaps I can update and make it a more pleasant and uplifting site with an Atlantic Ocean theme! Kitty Hawk and surrounding beach pictures. Kitty Hawk for those who might not know is on the Atlantic coast of North Carolina on an island ( connected to the mainland by two very large bridges about 15 - 20 miles apart. Enter one in Va the other in NC)

Foolish, Stupid, him or US?

2012-02-26T10:03:00.003-05:00

Foolish - Stupid ................ Him or Us

What have we done as American

by sitting home on election day?????

.....By looking at this administration and it's policies and using common sense, one can see

the path they are leading us down...... most people see this as the, not so "freedom

loving" government slowly weaving it's way into society and slowly pushing and pulling

"things" so as to make the path to their final destination a little easier to lead or push"the

people" down..... If you don't see this or get it, I understand, you probably voted for the

current administration, as was your right. Most folks who voted for this administration tend

only to see the good and what they perceive as good, others see it as it appears and

where it's heading.

To be honest, it's scary.... If you voted for the current administration relax, take it easy,

you did your part so this election, stay at home let the rest of handle voting!

America You Got This President as a Results of Too Many Americans Sitting at Home on Election Day!

GOYAAV.........
get off your ass and vote

Why Mr. President, WHY?

2012-01-21T11:03:00.002-05:00

The Keystone pipe line has been in the works for years and impact studies have been done for over three years! Now President Obama, said he didn't have enough time to study the matter!***(It should be noted the deadline is not until Feb 21, 2012)

Can you say, "Shovel Ready"

President Obama denied the largest "shovel ready" jobs program in the country. He hasn't had enough time to study the project. CRAP! (excuse me) Studies have been done and the pipe line project has passed all of them. So what's up with the "Obama" ? He claims he wants to put Americans back to work, this project will employ many, many people. Could it be he wants gas to reach $5 a gallon? He has said the very same in the past. (Could it be a question of CONTROL? He feels as President he should have total control?)

The pipe line could reduce gas prices before the first drop "liquid energy" passes through the pipe line. One has to ask, what is this President up to, is it stupidity, "fantasy-landish," meanness, hatred, wanting total control or WHAT?

"This announcement is not a judgment on the merits of the pipeline, but the arbitrary nature of a deadline..." Obama said in a statement. "I'm disappointed that Republicans in Congress forced this decision, but it does not change my administration's commitment to American-made energy that creates jobs and reduces our dependence on oil." ??? ( Try something else Mr. President, that bird doesn't fly and that dog doesn't hunt)

"Little Rock, Ark., 60 employees at a local steel pipe manufacturer are now out of work as a direct result of the President’s indecision:"

"The President’s State Department thoroughly studied potential environmental impacts of the Keystone pipeline and found minimal risk to soil, water, air, and animal life. Still, environmentalists oppose construction of the pipeline in force. The pipeline has support from both sides of the political aisle and would deliver economic benefits spanning the nation:"

"The construction of the Keystone XL pipeline would deliver an additional 700,000 to 830,000 barrels of oil per day to the U.S. from Canada, the U.S.’s largest supplier of oil. Not only is the delay preventing additional imports from Canada, it is also preventing the creation of thousands of private-sector jobs. Building the pipeline would directly create 20,000 truly shovel-ready jobs; the Canadian Energy Research Institute estimates that current pipeline operations and the addition of the Keystone XL pipeline would create 179,000 American jobs by 2035."

Recognizing the need for more energy supply and more jobs, both Democrats and Republicans expressed support for the Keystone XL pipeline, a $20 billion private-infrastructure investment in the United States. The states through which the pipeline would pass—Montana, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas—would benefit greatly. The six states are collectively projected to receive $5.2 billion in property taxes from TransCanada in the course of the 100-year operating life of the pipeline.

Tell us the truth Mr. President, what are you up to????

After looking at what is happening in this country I wonder if this project had been a US Obama Administration project, Obama ,himself, would be out in full force, ( TV spots, radio commercials, main stream media front page stories, nightly news shots the works) telling people how great "his" pipeline was going to be and just how much "he" cares about America? Or would he rather scrap the entire project and let gas prices rise to over $5 per gallon? Truth is one can not really tell with this President!

Tell us the truth Mr. President, what are you up to???

"Obama is saying he rejected the permit application now based on the State Department's recommendation, which concluded there wasn't enough time to vet alternate pipeline routes." Please excuse me but let me repeat "The President’s State Department thoroughly studied potential environmental impacts of the Keystone pipeline and found minimal risk to soil, water, air, and animal life."

Tell us the truth Mr. President, what are you up to????

How did Americans elect this man to be President of the United States of America?

Interesting facts:

The XL pipeline, if it ever gets built, will stretch from Alberta Canada all the way to the Gulf of Mexico, where U.S. refineries will be able to turn Canadian crude oil into gasoline and other fuels.

Canada is by far the largest supplier of crude oil to the U.S., providing the country with 1.9 million barrels per day, according to The Perryman Group, a Texas-based research firm that conducted a report on the economic impact Keystone will have on the six states through which it will travel.

The Keystone XL Pipeline System will have the capacity to deliver approximately 1.1 million barrels per day of Canadian crude oil to US markets each day. Proponents of the pipeline say the project will help insulate the U.S. from testy oil-exporting regimes and volatile regions of the world, thus helping the nation's energy self-sufficiency. TransCanada says the pipeline will supply the U.S. with roughly half the amount of oil it imports from the Middle East.

TransCanada is promising the pipeline will create 15,000 construction and manufacturing jobs, generate $5.2 billion in property taxes from Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas and provide $20 billion in economic contributions.

The American Petroleum Institute, the largest U.S. trade group for oil and gas producers, said the pipeline will create 500,000 U.S. jobs by 2035, but opponents argue those are not permanent jobs. ( )

Even though the debate has focused on the Keystone XL Pipeline it is important to note, it is simply an extension of the Keystone Pipeline, which is already built and operational. It stretches from Hardsity, Alberta, and flows east to Manitoba then hooks due south to Steele City, Neb. From there it splits in two, reaching Patoka, Ill., and Cushing, Okla.

A similar pipeline stretches from Wisconsin and Michigan all the way to Louisiana.

The Keystone XL Pipeline will relay Alberta to Steele City in one straight line of piping over much of Nebraska, then extend the current pipeline to Port Arthur, Texas, which is next to both Louisiana and the Gulf of Mexico.

The pipeline would flow over an environmentally sensitive area of Nebraska. Known as the Sandhills, the region is sandy hills under which lies the Ogallala Aquifer, the leading source of drinking and irrigation water for the nation's bread basket.The ground is permeable and the fear is an oil spill in the region will percolate down into the water shed contaminating the entire aquifer.

The Sandhills is considered an ecoregion by the World Wide Fund for Nature, due to its distinct soil composition, and is one of the most intact natural habitats of the Great Plains, according to the WWF. Roughly 85 percent has not been developed or altered by humans.

In November 2011, the Nebraskan legislature passed a bill that would reroute the pipeline away from the region, and TransCanada agreed.

A new route is expected within days.

In the Department of State's final Impact Statement reviewing the project, the Keystone XL pipeline is expected to have between 1.18 to 2.51 oil spills of any size per year.

Union officials are normally shoulder-to-shoulder with environmentalists in the Democratic Party and in progressive coalitions, but the Keystone XL controversy has divided those two interest groups, with labor unions taking the same side as the oil industry.

The debate as to the project's environmental impact prompted the State Department to undertake a review of the project that has been going on since 2008. Between 2009 and 2010, the department hosted 41 public meetings and published its draft environmental impact statement on April 16.

Responding to public comments, the department issued in April 2011 a supplemental draft impact statement, which received more than 280,000 comments. A decision was expected in December 2011, but last November President Barack Obama for purely political reasons with total disregard for the American citizens, some of whom elected him, deferred a decision until after the presidential election. A final decision by the State Department was not expected until 2013.

The delay was met with frustration by Republicans in Washington and outrage by citizens on Nov. 30, a bill was introduced that would force the president to approve the pipeline within 60 days of the bill's passing.

In mid-December Congressional members passed an amendment to the Payroll Tax Holiday bill that forced the president to make a final determination on the bill by Feb. 21.

Not having total control, the president rejected the pipeline project,( well before the Feb 21st deadline) claiming his administration did not have enough time to review the project, that began in 2008.

I ask the President, as you should:Tell us the truth Mr.

President, what are you up to????

How did Americans elect this man to be President of

the United States of America?

I "hope" there is a "change" of Presidents, be sure to vote......

That is HOPE & CHANGE that will save this country!

New Law: Relocate DC Rats, Don't Kill Them

2012-01-16T13:52:00.000-05:00

             The rats are running wild in DC!! These rats are the four legged rodents, not Politicians. It seem the 4 legged rat population is getting out of control in DC especially since the "Occupy DC" folks have moved in. ..
A DC new law says, Rats in DC have to be relocated not killed.

           Virginia's Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli says

he is worried that a new District of Columbia law that governs how pest control operators must handle rats may result in entire rodent “families” being relocated across the Potomac River into Virginia by D.C. pest control personnel. …

           Cuccinelli said D.C.’s new rat law — the Wildlife Protection Act of 2010 (Wildlife Protection Act of 2010.pdf)— is “crazier than fiction” because it requires that rats and other vermin not be killed but captured, preferably in families; no glue or snap traps can be utilized; the rodents must be relocated from where they are captured; and some of these animals may need to be transferred to a “wildlife rehabilitator” as part of their relocation process.

           The law does not allow pest control professionals “to kill the dang rats,” Cuccinelli said, “They have to capture them — then capture them in families. [Not sure] how you’re going to figure that out with rats. And then you have to relocate them. That brings us to Virginia. Now, if you don’t relocate them about 25 miles away, according to experts, rodents will find their way back. Well, an easy way to solve that problem is to cross a river, and what’s on the other side of the river? Virginia.”

      You can't fault the Stae of Virginia for not wanting families of rats being relocated to thise state. You can't fault the people of the United States for wanting to relocate the the current President. ( Enough said)

STOP IT NOW, Do what needs to be done!

2012-01-16T13:10:00.000-05:00

President Obama is trying to raise the debt ceiling to the, not so sweet, tune of $1.2 trillion, again. He sent a one page letter to congress asking for the debt ceiling to be raised. ( Hmmmmmmmmm! Guess we all have to pay for his Hawaii vacation)

This has to stop, stop the carzs, stop car company take overs, stop giving millions to "green" companies, stop all the Crap, stop trying to change our form of government. Mr. President if you don't like our form of government feel free to go to any country you feel comfortable with, sure you've made many friends with leaders of other countries. You will be able to find a country that fits your philosophy, the way you want your family to live and one that will take you.

PS Don't let the White House door bump you on the butt when you leave and I "hope" you have a nice life and please leave any "change" you haven't spent.

Christmas HO! HO! HO! IF THINGS DON'T CHANGE. NO, NO, NO

2011-12-07T11:34:00.001-05:00

Teach your children to be grateful for what they have and receive every day and to be very thankful for any gifts they may receive for Christmas. Teach your children Christmas is not all about getting gifts or "stuff."

There is grumbling up North.( North Pole) I was sent a warning of what Christmas could be in the future if we're not grateful for what we have and thrilled to the bone for anything we receive as a Christmas gift.

One other thing from my source up North:

This "list" business has gotten way out of hand.

Kids today makes Christmas lists and expect to

receive each and every item. Well, it's about

time the kids realize they can't always get what

they want and somethings are just too expensive!

This country would be a lot better off if adults (Parents, Congress and the White House) figured out they can't always get or afford exactly what they want when they want it. There wouldn't be as many people in houses that they can't afford. This explains why the Elf named, "Credit," is laying low.............................

PLEASE LISTEN BELOW TO THE SOURCE FROM UP NORTH,

THIS IS A WARNING.....

By-Stander in the White House..Way In Over His Head

2011-12-07T10:03:00.001-05:00

Too late to cry now..... you are in way over your head

                   It's Not So Much Fun Now

          We now have a by-stander in the White House! The latest word from the White House on the debt and economy concerning the Super Committee is sad. The President recently said he was pretty sure the committee wasn't going to get anything done so he didn't get involved. Oh great, the President, the man who was going to lead the country, the man who got enough people to believe he knew enough to run the country, (at least that is what someone wanted you to believe), is taking a pass when it comes to issues he feels are too hard.
          A good thing or a bad thing? Well, if you actually expected the President to help the country it could be a bad thing. A good thing if you look at the President's record to this point in trying to "help" the country. One might say, we would all be better off if the President had just stood by and done nothing. Sort of like voting present as he did many, many times while in the senate.

         I personally believe there were many reasons Obama was elected President, few of those reasons had much to do about his ability to lead. A number of voters figure, if a guy has gotten as far as actually running for President he has the knowledge to become President, especially if he is in the same party!

         No offense to the President, personally, but I was encouraged to hear the President's rating have dropped to the lowest of any other President, at this point in his term. There is a glimmer of hope after all.

       I mean no disrespect to the man, I believe he got way in over his head. It amazes me exactly how a person with his past record* became President of the United States of America.

* By "record" I am not referring to any criminal activity.

Big F'n Deal Mr. Vice President

2011-11-29T15:17:00.000-05:00

VP, Joe Biden

Does it make you a little uncomfortable knowing the Vice President is in Baghdad talking to other world leaders?

The Vice President is representing the United States of America and President Obama, which in itself is scary, in Baghdad, discussing the drawdown of the US troops. Of course who really knows what he is actually saying? Remember, this is the same Joe Biden who, on the day President Obama signed the health care overhaul into law, made a blooper of historic proportions. When the Vice President introduced President Obama, he leans into the President and whispers, not so quietly, into his ear........................................

"This is a big ("Fn") deal"!

OOOPs!

He said such things as:

"J-O-B-S is a three letter word."

"Hillary Clinton is as qualified or more qualified than I am to be vice president of the United States of America. Quite frankly, it might have been a better pick than me."

"Stand up, Chuck, let 'em see ya." (speaking to Missouri state senator Chuck Graham was in a wheelchair.)

The Vice President gets his historical facts screwed up, claiming President Roosevelt went on TV in 1929 to talk about the stock market crash, despite the fact Roosevelt wasn't President and TV's were only experimental.

But hey, what are few screw ups among friends or world leaders?

These are but a few examples that should scare you knowing the Vice President is talking to other world leaders while representing the United States of America.

I believe it is way past time for a change in leadership or lack of, in the White House. If you agree, please remember these things before the 2012 election and don't be afraid to let your feelings be known.

Vote to Untangle the Tangled Mess

2011-11-29T15:09:00.001-05:00

I don't care who you voted for in the last Presidential election, that's over. It's time to focus on the upcoming election, ask yourself and answer yourself, honestly, what positive things has the current President done for you, your family and your future family? What has he done for this country? I didn't say what has he done "to" this country but "for" this country.

I dare say there are lots of people receiving some kind of government aid, food stamps, welfare, grants, assistance for this or that, unemployment benefits, over and beyond what you have paid in the system. Just so it is clear, when I speak of government aid I am not talking to seniors who worked all of their lives and paid into the social security system, they were told, would take care of them when they retired. (A system they were forced to pay into and would have been fine today if the government had left the money alone and used it only for the purpose it was collected .) Nor am I speaking to people who are truly disabled. I am, however, also speaking to over paid under working government employees and a lot of politicians, who fall into the previous category.

All the people getting aid, you had better think hard about who you want as your President, when the money is gone it's gone...talk about class warfare, you are going to see class warfare like you have never envisioned. You won't be on the winning side.

Everyone had better vote smart this time! By that I mean, don't vote to try to undo past wrongs. Don't vote to keep your undeserved, unpaid for, freebies. Vote for the person that will get us out of the horrible mess the current President and the economy has entangled our country.

What now? Newt Beat His Mom!!!

2011-11-23T16:03:00.000-05:00

Sad but true!

No, not that Newt beat his mother, he didn't however, "the powers that be" have successfully caused Herman Cain's slump in the polls. Now that Newt has risen to the top it's time for "the powers that be" to start spreading something about Newt. Beating his mother might work, I can see it now, an unnamed source close to the campaign said Newt beat his mother and could have....... Of course the source will be unnamed, at least at the beginning and you know the rest of the story!

It is not a bad thing that Newt has risen to the top, as a matter of fact Newt would make a great President he is a very smart person. I dare say, much smarter than the current sitting President with loads more experience and an understanding of how government works and doesn't work. The former Speaker of the House has actual ideas of how and what to do to help this country internally and help bring the United States' standing back with the rest of the world. We can thank the current President for making the U.S. look like a second rate country with nothing to be proud of and all kinds of reasons to apologise.

I am interestrest in finding out who is/are "the powers that be".

What are your ideas on, "the powers that be"?

She said, He did, now she says, she might not want to say. Or so someone said!

2011-11-02T16:36:00.000-04:00

The latest on the Herman Cain story; one of Mr. Cain's accusers is changing her tune about her willingness to speak out about sexual harassment allegations she made back in the 90's. Somebody, who knew somebody, who knows somebody close to the Cain situation said recently no decision has been made about asking the NRA to release an unnamed person from a confidentiality agreement she signed.
Joel Bennett an attorney for an unnamed Herman Cain accuser said his client asked him to stop talking to the news media, Mr Bennett told this to a news media reporter.

On Wednesday Bennett said," I stand by everything I said" after talking to several news media outlets.
This entire story sounds like a He said, she said, an unnamed source said, not to say, I said!

Obama avoids congress, deems the new student loan program so!

2011-10-27T13:19:00.000-04:00

"The ONE"

The new Obama student loan program will be done... President Obama Wednesday reached out to young voters in a key swing state. On his second campaign visit to the Rocky Mountain electoral battleground of Colorado in a month,the President said,"We want you in school. But we shouldn't saddle you with debt when you're starting off," referring to the high fees, many US students face on the way to a degree.

Obama's plan, to be enacted by executive order, will mean payments would go down for 1.6 million Americans who are stuck with student loan debt. WHAT THE PRESIDENT, IN HIS INFINITE WISDOM, FAILED TO MENTION WAS...after all is said and done the average student's monthly payment will fall by, ( hold on to your hat) between $4 and $8 and maybe as much as $10 in some cases.The President did say,"These changes will make a difference for millions of Americans. It will save you money.( failing to mention just how much of a saving) It will help more young people figure out how to afford college. It can put more money in your pocket once you graduate," he said.

The plan was among a series of initiatives that Obama unveiled during a three day campaign trip to California, Nevada and Colorado using his executive powers, thus under minding the way America's government operates.

There is no doubt young voters will be especially crucial to Obama's re-election hopes in Colorado, a swing state where he fired up young, first time voters in 2008 on his way to the White House.

By coincidence, Obama was in Denver exactly three years ago to the day, in days before his presidential election victory, talking to a massive crowd of more than 100,000 people, many of them young voters. However back then he didn't tell the young first time voters he would do what other President had not done by working around the system and the way the government has worked since the country's founding. This President must believe he knows more than all the Presidents before him. I would dare to remind the President and those who will be voting in the next election, first time or not, America's government is not a One man rule government.

It' doubtful this is the change many voters had in mind when the present President promised Hope and Change.

It's clear to see the savings the President wants young people and parents to imagine are far more than what the end results will actually be. The President didn't say just what these "GREAT" saving would cost to implement.

If He Says It's So, It's So!

2011-10-24T08:48:00.000-04:00

God Bless/Help The USA

Campaigning, President Barack Obama on Friday declared an end to the Iraq war one of the longest and most divisive conflicts in U.S. history. He is President and in his mind what he says is true. Announcing to the world that all American troops will be coming home by year's end thus putting an end to the war, no matter if the job is done or not.

Instead, of stating everything has been taken care of, the campaigning Obama spoke of a promise kept, a new day for a self-reliant Iraq and a focus on building up the economy at home.

"I can report that, as promised, the rest of our troops in Iraq will come home by the end of the year," Obama said. "After nearly nine years, America's war in Iraq will be over", because he said so.

Obama spoke after a private video conference with Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, and he offered assurances that the two leaders agreed on the decision, just like the assurances he gave the American people about the first "job's bill about all those shovel ready jobs.

Obama, an opponent of the war from the start, took office and accelerated the end of the conflict. In August 2010, he declared the U.S. combat mission over.

"Over the next two months tens of thousands of our troops in Iraq will ready themselves for the journey home," Obama said. "The last American soldier will cross the border out of Iraq with their heads held high, proud of their success and knowing that the American people stand united in our support for our troops." He didn't mention if there would be any civilians jobs for these braves troops when they returned home.

I am confident it is not a good thing to let everyone know exactly when your are going to leave a conflict. However it is a good thing when you are trying to get re-elected and can use it as a promise fulfilled.

Lets bring this situation down to a kids level and explain it. You have three kids, one is being attacked by a bully, a third kids who is the biggest comes over to the small kids yard and helps him beat up the bully. As the bully is laying on the ground the biggest kid says I have to leave at 4:45.

Not being an idiot, the bully backs off knowing full well after about 4:50 he can come back and smack the "you know what" out of the small kid because he knows exactly when the big kid is going home.

If the big kid had said, I am not sure when or if I have to go home, the bully would have high tailed it out of there and probably stopped bugging the little kid.

Why tell the bully and the rest of the world your plans?

Virginia, you didn't, did you?

2011-10-19T08:22:00.000-04:00

President Obama made a clean get away after his tour/campaign stops through North Caroline, all be it, to much smaller crowds.( This may be a sign of his chances of taking NC next year's election.) He didn't fare as well in VA, a truck carrying the president’s teleprompter, podiums, and audio equipment was stolen in Virginia, WWBT-TV reports.

The Department of Defense confirmed the theft, but it’s unclear if the thieves targeted the vehicle for what it contained or simply got “lucky.”The truck was parked at the Virginia Center Commons Courtyard Marriott in advance on Wednesday’s presidential visit to Chesterfield.

Sources said the vehicle had about $200,000 worth of sound equipment, several podiums and presidential seals, behind which only the President himself can stand.
They told NBC12 around 12:30 Monday afternoon that truck was recovered in the parking lot of the Holiday Inn Express near the airport and hotel staff confirm police activity. One guest of the Hotel said he saw various law enforcement agencies examining a white box truck parked there.

Still, even though the truck was recovered it’s unclear from reports if any of the equipment was removed from the vehicle or if it was just missing temporarily.
“No classified or sensitive information was in the vehicle,” a Defense Information Systems Agency spokesperson told WWBT. “We take incidents such as this very seriously and a formal investigation is continuing.”
Seems the President might not be feeling as much, "love" as he has enjoyed in the past. Maybe, "the people" have their eyes wide open, of course it could be a complete coincidence and the thieves had no idea what they had snatched.

As far as we know the $1.1 million, taxpayer funded, super bus is still in the hands and under the control of the government. Even though citizens may feel as though they are being robbed when taxpayer money is being used for "campaign bus" by the President.

North Caroline Won't Get Duped Again...?

2011-10-17T13:55:00.001-04:00

Diverting attention from his poor job performance the President, in North Caroline, knocked Republicans while trying very hard to get re-elected. President Obama on Monday used tax payer money to make a campaign stop and acted like he was trying to push a jobs package, he knows is dead. Senate Democrats planned action on what looks like a plan to help the president cover up his campaigning and make it look like a plan to hire more state worker, "or so it seems." In campaign mode on the road, Obama accused Republicans senators of saying no to helping Americans when he knows members of his own party are also against the plan.

With the President's plan for one big bill now dead, the Senate began moving to take up parts of it. Yet given that the Senate is likely to spend the week with an overdue spending bills then taking a vacation who know when they might get to the pieces parts bills.

Senate Leader Harry Reid planned to announce on Monday that the chamber would move first on the aid to states. Obama, campaigning through the politically crucial states of North Carolina and Virginia, acted as if he was making a coordinated push for the "pieces part" bill and mocked Republicans for forcing a piece-by-piece approach to his jobs legislation. He left out the fact there were democrats against his, "all or nothing" plan.

We can all thank Republicans in the Senate for rejecting consideration of his whole $447 billion plan last week.

"Maybe they just couldn't understand the whole thing at once, so we're going to break it up into bite-size pieces," a smart aleck Obama said from his first campaign stop in Western North Carolina before getting on his $1.1million taxpayer funded black-tinted bus and heading across the state.

Obama is trying to get voters to fall for a $35 billion scheme or bribe to "aid to states," one slice of his overall bill. White House spokesman Jay Carney said the White House anticipated action "very soon." What kind of action is unclear, now voters know the President is trying to get re elected. All Americans know what he promised the last time he was trying to get elected.North Caroline voters aren't stupid and hopefully won't get duped.

The, so called, state aid package has a dim future on Capitol Hill.

It is a non-starter in the House and most likely will face a filibuster in the Senate. Last year, when Senate Democrats controlled 59 votes, 3 moderate Republicans voted with Democrats to pass a $26 billion state aid package. But with their numbers down to 53, Democrats appear stuck and Americans could be spared.

In western, N.C. a supportive crowd broke into a chant of "four more years". The president in response said: "I appreciate the four more years, but right now I'm thinking about the next thirteen months."It seems clear" to many Americans 4 more years and 13 months is what he is after. Too bad he didn't stay in Washington, saving the American people millions of dollars. On second thought, the country might be better off if he stays away from Washington.

Can you say, "We, the American People, Got Scammed"

2011-10-04T12:50:00.002-04:00

I bet, not with my money,these guys will do something good.

The FBI is investigating the "Solyndra Affair"," the solar panel company that got a $535 million government-backed loan with the help of the Obama White House over the objections of federal budget analysts."
Remember when President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden got a nice photo op. They got to make speeches about being "green." Trouble with that deal was, Solyndra went bankrupt, Americans lost jobs, Taxpayers got stuck with the bill to the tune of half a billion dollars. I guess that was part of the "Hope and Change" the President promised?
In the president's defense, he did say, (after the fact), that was one bet he made that didn't turn out the way he had hoped.....(There is that "HOPE" thing again) I don't remember him saying
anything about "betting" in any of his speeches. By the way, he is betting with our money, not his own?
Surprise, surprise, the U.S. Department of Energy employee who helped monitor the Solyndra loan guarantee was one of Obama's top fundraisers.
Sounds like good old Chicago politics to me..........
Remember, when Washington picks winners and losers no matter what happens the taxpayer is always the loser.
I ask you, is this the guy that was going to set things right DC with all the hope and change? After he is gone, I hope there is some change left in the the country's bank account, to buy the next president a cup coffee. I sure hope next time the American people do a better job of picking a President.

Idiot, Evil, Incompetent or Well Planned?

2011-10-03T14:43:00.002-04:00

Idiot, Evil, Incompetent or Well Planned?

Does he have any idea what he is doing?

Is this man an idiot? (A question, not an accusation.) To be honest, I as well as many Americans am not sure what to believe. It's hard to believe or I don't want to believe he is evil, on the other hand it's hard to believe any person, at this level could be as dumb as he seems.

Example 1:

The Obama Energy Department announced that it has finalized a $737 million, yes, $737 MILLION loan guarantee for a Nevada solar project.

This qustionable decision comes weeks after a California-based solar manufacturer that received a $535 million loan guarantee from the Obama administration in 2009 filed for bankruptcy and laid off 1,100 workers.

"The $737 million loan guarantee will help finance construction of the Crescent Dunes Solar Energy Project, a 110-megawatt solar-power-generating facility in Nye County, Nev. The project is sponsored by Tonopah Solar, a subsidiary of California-based SolarReserve."

“The Energy Department says the project will result in 600 construction jobs and 45 permanent jobs.”*** $737 million divided by 45 = $16.37 million per job.

"Crescent Dunes is the latest solar project to receive a loan guarantee from the Energy Department in recent weeks. The department announced a $1.2 billion loan guarantee to Abengoa Solar for a solar generation project in California and a $150 million loan guarantee to 1366 Technologies for a Massachusetts solar manufacturing project earlier this month."

$535Million plus $737Million plus $1.2Billion plus $150Million = I ask again, is this man an idiot, evil or what?

Example 2:

After tripling the US deficit in a year, increasing the federal budget by a trillion dollars in a little over 3 years, adding $4 trillion to the national debt in two-and-a-half years and overseeing the first downgrade of the American economy in a century, our failed president lectured Europe on fiscal responsibility this week.

What is this man doing and why do we let him get by with it???? We all need to take a long hard look at his record before we vote. Unlike last time the people have a record of what he has done to this country. It 's getting hard for any media outlet to put a good face on his record.........

Before you vote, ask yourself, is this the change I was looking/voting for in the last election?

*** Figures don't account for the 600 temp jobs but who cares anyway, jobs are jobs right?

I don't have a calculator with enough space to figure how much money this administration has "dissed" away. One has to wonder if the results are going as planned???

Do We Really Know the President?

2011-09-21T09:26:00.002-04:00

Make your own decision

Decide if all or part of this story is true

But whatever you do think about it before you vote in 2012:

Libertarian author, radio personality and politician Wayne Allyn Root had this published in the Las Vegas Review-Journal on June 6, 2010.

"Barack Hussein Obama is no fool. He is not incompetent. To the contrary, he is brilliant. He knows exactly what he's doing. He is purposely overwhelming the U.S. economy to create systemic failure,
economic crisis and social chaos -- thereby destroying capitalism and our country from within.Barack Hussin Obama was my college classmate."
(((They were not roommates but attended the college at the same time)))

(****The reasons for the President's actions, to me, are unclear, does he thinks he has a better system of government ? Does he think he is smarter than the founding fathers?****)

Do not be fooled. "Look at his Czars...anti-business. .anti-American.

As Glenn Beck correctly predicted from day one, Barack Hussein Obama is following the plan of Cloward & Piven, two professors at Columbia University .

They outlined a plan to socialize America by overwhelming the system with government spending and entitlement demands. Add up the clues below. Taken individually they're alarming.

Taken as a whole, it is a brilliant, Machiavellian game plan to turn the United States into a socialist/Marxist state with a permanent majority that desperately needs government for survival ... and can be counted on to always vote for bigger government. Why not? They have no responsibility to pay for it.

Universal health care. The health care bill had very little to do with health care. It had everything to do with unionizing millions of hospital and health care workers, as well as adding 15,000 to 20,000 new IRS agents (who will join government employee unions). Obama doesn't care that giving free health care to 30 million Americans will add trillions to the national debt. What he does care about is that it cements the dependence of those 30 million voters to Democrats and big government. Who but a socialist revolutionary would pass this reckless spending bill in the middle of a depression?

Cap and trade. Like health care legislation having nothing to do with health care, cap and trade has nothing to do with global warming. It has everything to do with redistribution of income, government control
of the economy and a criminal payoff to Obama's biggest contributors. Those powerful and wealthy unions and contributors (like GE, which owns NBC, MSNBC and CNBC) can then be counted on to support everything Obama wants. They will kick-back hundreds of millions of dollars in contributions to Obama and the Democratic Party to keep them in power. The bonus is that all the new taxes on Americans with bigger cars, bigger homes and businesses helps Obama "spread the wealth around.

Make Puerto Rico a state. Why? Who's asking for a 51st state? Who's asking for millions of new welfare recipients and government entitlement addicts in the middle of a depression? Certainly not American taxpayers. But this has been Barack Hussein Obama's plan all along. His goal is to add two new Democrat senators, five Democrat congressman and a million loyal Democratic voters who are dependent on big government.

Legalize 12 million illegal Mexican immigrants. Just giving these 12 million potential new citizens free health care alone could overwhelm the system and bankrupt America . But it adds 12 million reliable new Democrat voters who can be counted on to support big government. Add another few trillion dollars in welfare, aid to dependent children, food stamps, free medical, education, tax credits for the poor, and eventually Social Security.

Stimulus and bailouts. Where did all that money go? It went to Democrat contributors, organizations (ACORN), and unions -- including billions of dollars to save or create jobs of government employees across the country. It went to save GM and Chrysler so that their employees could keep paying union dues. It went to AIG so that Goldman Sachs could be bailed out (after giving Obama almost $1 million in contributions). A staggering $125 billion went to teachers (thereby protecting their union dues). All those public employees will vote loyally Democrat to protect their bloated salaries and pensions that are bankrupting America . The country goes broke, future generations face a bleak future, but Obama, the Democrat Party, government, and the unions grow more powerful. The ends justify the means.

Raise taxes on small business owners, high-income earners, and job creators. Put the entire burden on only the top 20 percent of taxpayers, redistribute the income, punish success, and reward those who did nothing to deserve it (except vote for Obama). Reagan wanted to dramatically cut taxes in order to starve the government. Barack Obama wants to dramatically raise taxes to starve his political opposition. With the acts outlined above, Barack Hussein Obama and his regime have created a vast and rapidly expanding constituency of voters dependent on big government; a vast privileged class of public employees who work for big government; and a government dedicated to destroying capitalism and installing themselves as socialist rulers by overwhelming the system.

Add it up and you've got the perfect Marxist scheme -- all devised by my Columbia University college classmate Barack Hussein Obama using the Cloward and Piven Plan."

**** I can't say, because I don't know him, exactly what he is up to. Something is not right, things have not been getting better and some of the things his classmate says sure ring true.

Everyone has their opinion and that is what makes this country great, lets keep it that way. Be smart and when you hear the President telling the people, this time he has the solution and the solution is more of what didn't work last time, be CAREFUL, very careful.

Thank you for reading the blog. I would like to know what you think, it doesn't matter if you voted for the president or not.****

Thank you.

US Mint Wasting Millions to Produce $1 Coins Nobody Wants or Uses

2011-08-31T15:08:00.002-04:00

   You have got to see this, ( Click on the link) US Mint Spending Millions to Produce $1 Coins That Nobody Wants the US government is wasting millions of dollars, yes, millions of dollars making coins:
   a) Nobody, (for the most part) wants
   b) Most people don't even know exist
   c) We don't need
   d) We are going to spend hundreds of thousands of
   dollars to build a storage facility.
   e) It's going to cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to ship
   them to storage.
   f) Are being produced right now, ( they are being
   made, bagged, boxed and stored.)

   Is anyone sane in this government?

SOMEBODY, PLEASE, GO TO WASHINGTON AND STOP THIS MADNESS.
Better yet, PEOPLE, please elect a president next year that is, at the very least, sane and has a touch, of business sense.(Maybe more common sense also)

Guidance and Direction... from the State?

2011-08-29T17:33:00.001-04:00

   Irene swept up the east coast this past weekend and although damage may not have been as great as had been expected, ... there was damage and lots of damage. Power outages are still affecting millions of people as well as the aftermath of flooding, high winds and downed trees. Parts of the Outer Banks of NC are now cut off as the water split the main road and formed a new water way to the back bay.
   The President of the United States spoke to the people, especially those who had been adversely affected. The president told those in the wake of Irene, to get outside, when it is safe to do so, and help each other in this time of need. Check on your neighbors, come together and start to rebuild, first, your spirit, then your homes and lives. The government disaster teams are on their way to help you. OH NO, WAIT... HE WOULDN'T SAY ANYTHING LIKE THAT.....!!!!!! This is the Obama - Government Can Fix Everything - Administration. He said" I urge Americans in affected areas to continue to listen for the guidance and direction of their state... ."
   Americans are "can do" people. Americans, able to take care of themselves, do so and, if possible, help those who can't. I guess, it struck me the wrong way when I heard the president of the United States of America telling people to take guidance and direction from "the state." ( It's this mind set that worries many people in this country)
   I am pretty sure he meant well, but he should know by now, "the State" isn't what makes this country GREAT, it's the PEOPLE!

( I am not implying there is anything wrong or evil with the help coming from State workers or aid in the form of $'s.)
We all need to remember, the power comes from the people not the government.

Free Speech or Censorship, Something Fishy Is Going On.

2011-08-26T14:18:00.003-04:00

A “free-speech” trick is coming from the Obama Administration. The Federal Communications Commission announced they were doing away with the “Fairness” Doctrine. This federal doctrine of the 40'S was to ensure the broadcasters gave equal time to differing political opinions. However, the so called Fairness Doctrine was a back handed Censorship doctrine.

   Don't be fooled, the FCC is implementing a set of "rules " to "serve the public interest"( wink wink). These rules are being set up before doing away with the doctrine. These rules of "localism," "media diversity" and requirements for stations to "serve the public interest" give the FCC the power to limit speech they don't agree with or like.

   These rules give unelected and unaccountable people at the FCC the power to regulate how much air time broadcaster must devote to "local issues" thus limiting the amount of air time aka programs listeners want.

   The Diviersity rule could deny the right of station owners to renew their licenses solely on racial grounds.

   American of the past didn't give their lives so the 1st amendment could be stepped on by government employees of the FCC . These rules and regulations are a back handed way for the federal government to control what people hear.

   It seems censorship, control of the air waves, the end of free speech and certain radio talk shows by the government isn't as far away as one might believe.

We All Need to Follow the President's Lead in Budget Cutting

2011-08-15T09:38:00.000-04:00

$35,00.00 to $40,000.00 A Week for the President's Vacation House!!!!!!!!!!!!

Leaving Air Force-1, 2010 Martha's Vineyard Vacation

About $35,000.00 to $40,000.00 should cover the cost of the rental house the President and his family will be using for a week of R&R. All American's will feel better knowing the Obamas will be paying their share of the vacation home and the taxpayers will be paying for the White House staff's and all of the security people's portion, just like we did last year!!!!
I do wonder, who is paying for the fuel cost to get the Obamas and the White House staff, all the Security people and vehicles to Martha's Vineyard. How many gallons of jet fuel and gasoline and at what cost?? What will this, well needed, vacation cost the American taxpayer?
I dare say, it will be more than a very large number of families make in a year.......
They are cutting cost in Washington, sure they are, if you don't believe it just ask the President.

Is this your HOPE and CHANGE Mr. President?

2011-08-08T14:50:00.002-04:00

Is this your HOPE and CHANGE Mr. President?

The White House is out in force blaming the Tea Party and the credit rating agency for your failure as a President. Fact of the matter is you should have listened to the, so-called, Tea Party and cut more and BS's less. The credit rating folks told you how much you had to cut in order for them not to down grade the credit rating of the United States. You got a deal reducing the amount of cuts, much more than most Tea Party folks wanted and guess what? The United States of America, for the first time in history, under your watch had it's credit rating reduced. Is this the hope and or change you promised?

I hope you are ashamed of your poor leadership, your inability to come up with any type of plan on your own and the distasteful way your party is trying to blame others. Oh, I hate to "pile on" but don't forget, not too long ago, you and your party had the White House, the Senate and the House and couldn't or wouldn't even pass a budget. Who do wish to blame for that one? Please tell me, better yet, tell all of the Americans especially those who elected you.

Mr. President I firmly believe this isn't the hope nor the change those that voted for you were expecting. Perhaps this is some of the change those that didn't vote for you were fearing.

I sure "hope" the race issue is over for you Mr. President, you have been President for a couple of years and I can tell you this has nothing to due with race. No sir, this has nothing to do with race, it does however have a great deal to do with color. Yes, color.... the color RED where the United States finds itself, in the red and you deserve a large part of the blame. Not all, by any means, but a very large part. You have driven this nation into more debt than almost all of the other Presidents combined. ( A fact, I wouldn't brag about, especially around re-election time. Maybe some of your not so friendly "friends " in the Tea Party will remind the nation when the time is right!)
I sure hope change for the better is coming soon!!!
