What's wrong with this picture?

Is this how Baracky and Mickey salute the flag? With their "left hands" over nothing?

Not surprising to me at all. Two dyed in the wool socialistas showing their true contempt for our flag, not to mention our country.

As any American knows, we place our right hand over our heart when we recite the Pledge of Allegiance.

And for anyone who thinks this may be a "mirror-image" picture, please note the wedding rings on the ring fingers of their LEFT HANDS and the RIGHT side of the "Messiah's" suit coat where the buttons are.

It's sickening.

Thank you Mr. President (for your colossal waste of taxpayer money).

I was going to comment on how foolish Obama and his wife looked in as they tried to sway the International Olympic Committee in a stupid attempt to bring the 2016 Olympics to Chicago. Now that they've had their epic fail on this subject, I want to thank them for their tremendous waste of our money. American taxpayer money.

What did Obama think was going to happen if the Olympic games were given to Chicago? That all of the South Side gangbangers would go on a 16 day holiday during the games? (Hey, maybe the Olympic committee will hire them on as part of Obama's American Recovery and Reinvestment Act). Would he be able to funnel millions more into a corrupt and criminal ACORN? Does he think his star shines all around the world as it does with the lefty Hollywood crowd?

Anyway, Obumma 'n Opah don't have that kind of pull in the rest of the world. They thought they could pull a fast one on the EuroSocialistas but no dice bay-bee. Too bad, so sad.

I think Obama forgot the first rule on how politics are really played in Chicago:

He didn't grease the right palms.

Obama's Healthcare Policy = Bad Medicine!

I suppose if the new Obama Administration's health care plan tasted bad but you ended up feeling as good as Lucy Ricardo in the "Vitameatavegamin" episode it would be easier to swallow.

The idea that your health care would be dictated by the government is at the least dumb and at the worst fatal. If a sick person had to go through a government agency to receive medical care they would probably be dead two years before some bureaucrat gets to review their case.

Do we really want to leave our medical decisions to the government? What if they decide that an 80 year old that needs a transplant shouldn't get it because they would "only" live for an extra few years and the money would be better spent on a younger recipient? Are you comfortable for a government agency making quality of life judgements for you?

And just where is the money going to come from? President Obama is proposing to set aside $634 billion for health care reform over the next 10 years by raising taxes on the wealthy and cutting Medicare costs.

Obama proposes to cut the charitable giving deduction for families earning over $250,000 from 35% to 28% and using that money to help fund his plan. Think of it this way, as the tax laws stand now, a couple who gives $10,000 to charity gets a deduction credit of $3,500. If Obama's plan goes ahead that same couple will receive a maximum deduction of $2,800. Will this have any effect on charitable giving? I hope not but in reality it probably will.

But the worst aspect of BHO's plan is that it will in effect make government and the private health care compete for a finite amount of health care dollars. And what's more, the new plan would shrink payments to Medicare by $316 billion. That's the system that funds health care to the elderly and disabled.

There are three parts to the President's plan:

1. Quality, Affordable & Portable Health Coverage For All.
2. Modernizing The U.S. Health Care System To Lower Costs & Improve Quality.
3. Promoting Prevention & Strengthening Public Health.

All lofty goals. But realistic? I think not. He says the plan will save families about $2,500/year. Yeah, OK. I'll wait for that just like I'm still waiting for Governor Coupe Deval's "middle class tax cut" that he promised before becoming governor.

Me? For now I'll just keep on taking my happy pills and hope this is all just either a poorly written movie or a very disturbing nightmare that I hope I'll wake up from someday.

They Just Want Their Ice Cream.

We are worried about "the cow" when it is all about the "Ice Cream".

A 3rd Grade Teacher wrote this:

The most eye-opening civics lesson I ever had was while teaching third grade this year.

The presidential election was heating up and some of the children showed an interest.

I decided we would have an election for a class president. We would choose our nominees.

They would make a campaign speech and the class would vote. To simplify the process,
candidates were nominated by other class members.

We discussed what kinds of characteristics these students should have. We got many
nominations and from those, Jamie and Olivia were picked to run for the top spot.

The class had done a great job in their selections. Both candidates were good kids.
I thought Jamie might have an advantage because he got lots of parental support.
I had never seen Olivia's mother.

The day arrived when they were to make their speeches, Jamie went first.
He had specific ideas about how to make our class a better place.
He ended by promising to do his very best. Every one applauded.

He sat down and Olivia came to the podium.

Olivia's speech was concise. She said, "If you will vote for me, I will give you ice cream."

She sat down.

The class went wild. "Yes! Yes! We want ice cream."

She surely would say more. She did not have to. A discussion followed.

How did she plan to pay for the ice cream? She wasn't sure.

Would her parents buy it or would the class pay for it. She didn't know.
The class really didn't care. All they were thinking about was ice cream.

Jamie was forgotten. Olivia won by a land slide!

Every time Barack Obama opened his mouth when campaigning he offered ice cream and fifty-two
percent of the people reacted like a nine year old would. They just want their ice cream.

The other forty-eight percent know they're going to have to feed the cow and clean up the mess...

Just like we'll have to after this pork barrel "stimulus" package goes through.

Please cut the crap. No money for Acorn. Period!

Obama and his Posse...

Governor Sarah Palin Rocks!

I love this lady! Governor Sarah Palin really Rocks!

Why? Because she’s not a lifelong politician and talks like a real person. No platitudes. No bullshit. No beating around the bush. Governor Sarah Palin is exactly what John McCain needs to co-pilot his “Straight Talk Express”.

Some of the liberal pundits stated after her GOP Convention VP acceptance speech that all it proved was that she could read a teleprompter. Huh? Well, so can Barack Obama. The difference is that Sarah Palin actually came up with specific policy points, whereas Obama speaks only in generalities. Where is Barack’s plan for America (other than taxing us to death?)

Obama likes to speak of change. I’m thinkin’ that’s all we’ll have left after he initiates all his pie in the sky social programs. Yes, according to Obama, government can cure all the ills of society. And Barack, old buddy, old pal, old sweat sock…Change just for changes sake is no change at all. You’ve proved that it’ll be more of the same with your choice of Sen. Joe Biden as your running mate. Who’s more entrenched in government that Joe? Well, maybe Teddy Kennedy.

The last thing I want is to find a guy in a cheap suit at my front door saying “I’m from the government and I’m here to help you”. As a working person I do not recall even once that I’ve truly benefited from any government program. And when I’ve tried to receive some kind of assistance it’s always been more trouble than it’s worth. People like me don’t have the help of publicly paid advocates who can do all the leg work and grease the wheels. It seems that the beneficiaries of government programs are always somebody else. The folks who don’t or won’t work. The folks who are happy to collect your and my hard earned taxes while they lie about and bitch that they aren’t getting enough.

Sarah Palin is just who we need in Washington D.C. Someone who’s not entrenched in the whole D.C. culture. An outsider who knows how to push back and not accept the status quo just because that’s the way it’s always been. No one told her she couldn't do it. She didn't need the backing of N.O.W. to get ahead. In fact she's just what the radical feminist crowd abhor. A self driven woman who won't take no for an answer.

Just seeing the beating Sarah’s getting from the MSM makes me all the more supportive. I was going to have to vote for John McCain if only because the thought of a President Obama chills me to the bone. The fact that he’s chosen Gov. Palin for his running mate shows me that McCain is serious about enacting some real change in Washington, not some baloney slices that Obama’s throwing our way hoping it’ll stick.

I just have a better feeling about this election than I had only last week.

Governor Sarah Palin showed on TV last night that she’s the Real Deal.

Obama's fast Talking...

Just a thought I had this morning:

After hearing Barack Obama speak, I'm thinking that he talks so fast that listening to him is like trying to read Playboy magazine with your wife turning the pages.

All I hear is B.S. (and I don't mean Baloney Sandwich).

143 Days Experience and he wants to be President?

Just how much national experience does Barack Obama have in terms of actual working days?

Not much.

The following is taken from a blog post by Cheri Jacobus at:http://www.gopusa.com/theloft/

"From the time Barack Obama was sworn in as a United States Senator, to the time he announced he was forming his presidential exploratory committee he acquired 143 days in the Senate. That's how many days the Senate was actually in session and working.

After 143 days of actual work experience, Obama believed he was ready to be Commander in Chief, to fill the shoes of Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, FDR, JFK and Ronald Reagan."

"143 days...Jeepers, I've had stuff in my freezer for longer than that!"

"In contrast, Senator John McCain's 26 years in Congress, 22 years of military service including over 5 years as a guest of the North Vietnamese Communists as a Prisoner Of War at the Hanoi Hilton seem more impressive than ever."

"Why at 71, John McCain may be just hitting his peak."

Think about it.
Do you really know who Barack Obama is?
This man who would be King err...President?

Please take the time to read these quotes from Obama's books. These are his own words.

• From "Dreams of my Father": "I ceased to advertise my mother's race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites".
• From "Dreams of my Father": "I found solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mother's race".
• "Dreams of my Father": It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names".
• Again, from "Dreams of my Father": "I never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was my father's image, the black man, son of Africa, that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself. The attributes of Martin and Malcolm, DuBois and Mandela".

And perhaps the the most disturbing of all:

• From "Audacity of Hope": "I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.

As much as I was against Hillary Clinton and her policies, I believe that she had, at least from her political point of view, the best interests of America in her poor, broken socialist heart.

I believe Barack Obama does not. I also believe Obama does not have the mentality of a person who should be elected as President of the United States.

As far as I'm concerned, his past does not pass the "smell test".

Something is rotten with Obama. We'll find out if we just keep peeling back his layers like an onion and I don't want to wait and see how bad it stinks up America.

Is Obama a "Post Turtle"?

While stitching a cut on the hand of a 75 year old Texas rancher, whose hand was caught in a gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually the topic got around to Obama and his bid to be our President.

The old rancher said, 'Well, ya know, Obama is a 'post turtle'.

Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him what a 'post turtle' was.

The old rancher said, 'When you're driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that's a 'post turtle'.'

The old rancher saw a puzzled look on the doctor's face, so he continued to explain. 'You know he didn't get up there by himself, he doesn't belong up there, he doesn't know what to do while he is up there, and you just wonder what kind of a dumb ass put him up there to begin with.'


Just who did put Barrack Hussein Obama in the position he's found himself?
I'm not a PC type of guy so I'll give you my opinion whether you'll agree or be offended.

I'm thinking it was the George Soros and MoveOn.org crowd. Or maybe it was some of his racist socialist friends like Reverend Wright and his former church buddies. It could be any of the "Blame America First" acolytes.

All I know is that for all the apprehension I felt with the fact that Hillary Clinton could have been elected, I feel downright fear at the possibility of a President Obama. At least with Clinton I had the feeling that she had a very firm idea of what she was getting into.

With Obama, I don't think he's got a clue.

That's what scares me the most.

Obama’s Global Poverty Act. Is he kidding?

A nice-sounding bill called the "Global Poverty Act," sponsored by Democratic presidential candidate and Senator Barack Obama, is up for a Senate vote on Thursday and could result in the imposition of a global tax on the United States. The bill, which has the support of many liberal religious groups, makes levels of U.S. foreign aid spending subservient to the dictates of the United Nations.

Senator Joe Biden, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, has not endorsed either Senator Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton in the presidential race. But on Thursday, February 14, he is trying to rush Obama's "Global Poverty Act" (S.2433) through his committee. The legislation would commit the U.S. to spending 0.7 percent of gross national product on foreign aid, which amounts to a phenomenal 13-year total of $845 billion over and above what the U.S. already spends.

It appears the Senate version is being pushed not only by Biden and Obama, a member of the committee, but Richard Lugar, the ranking Republican member.

I have to ask, when has the burden on ending global poverty been America's responsibility?

How can Obama be serious about putting a greater tax burden on the American people for foreign aid when by his own accounts there is so much to be done about poverty here in the United States?

As Americans we are well known for our generosity. We are consistently the first ones to arrive when there are world disasters. We give with our money, sweat and blood. We give to charity even when things are looking down. We give even though our own situation my not be the best. We do it because it's the right thing to do, to help people less fortunate is not required, it is the morally decent thing to do. We don't look for pats on the back and "atta boys", it just gets done because it's right.

Now when Barrack Obama says he wants to put an extra tax burden on American citizens to the tune of $8,500 per household, we have to say "Whoa, hold your horses". There's so much to be done here in our country first.

To take from our citizens at a time when the doomsayers are shouting "recession and depression" cannot happen.

Especially if the United Nations in the going to be the banker, the organization that doles out these funds. We all saw how well the U.N.'s Oil for Food program worked. The top dawgs in the U.N. got rich off of that

President Bush's Knesset Speech.

"There are good and decent people who cannot fathom the darkness in these men and try to explain away their words. It's natural, but it is deadly wrong. As witnesses to evil in the past, we carry a solemn responsibility to take these words seriously. Jews and Americans have seen the consequences of disregarding the words of leaders who espouse hatred. And that is a mistake the world must not repeat in the 21st century.

Some seem to believe that we should negotiate with the terrorists and radicals, as if some ingenious argument will persuade them they have been wrong all along. We have heard this foolish delusion before. As Nazi tanks crossed into Poland in 1939, an American senator declared: "Lord, if I could only have talked to Hitler, all this might have been avoided." We have an obligation to call this what it is -- the false comfort of appeasement, which has been repeatedly discredited by history." (excerpt from President Bush's Knesset speech, May 15, 2008)

It's funny how so many are coming forward and calling his speech a disgrace - calling it an insult to Jews and to Israel itself.

It's funny that some of you are saying this despite the fact that he received a standing ovation after giving that speech!

And it's very funny how Senator Barack Obama calls the speech "a disgraceful attack on me and my campaign" He then says, "I never said I would sit down and talk with our enemies" Well, if you never said it, how is President Bush's speech an attack on you?

Bush reaffirmed to Israel that the America will continue to support her and not give in to the demands of terrorists. He was applauded for this by the very people you all claim were offended.

When have Israel's enemies - Hezbollah, Hamas, the PLO, and Al-Qaeda ever asked for talks to resolve the situation? When have these groups ever said, "Look, we think it's unfair and we would like to work out a diplomatic solution"? NEVER! Instead, they brainwash their followers into believing suicide bombing is the way to salvation.

President Bush was right in this speech. Our enemy can be compared to Hitler. He never tried to negotiate either - he just sent his troops out wherever he wanted a piece of land.

Those who think our enemies now are any different are incredibly foolish. I am sure if Bin Laden, instead of financing terrorist attacks, instead used his wealth and influence to seek diplomatic solutions, the America would have been happy to sit down with him. But that's not how people like Bin Laden operate.

The Bin Laden's of this world don't want anything but to see us dead, enslaved or assimilated into Islam.

Remember that line in the movie "Independence Day". When President Whitmore asks the captured alien "What do you want us to do?" the alien replies "Die, Die!". I view radical Islam as an alien culture and that line is dead on with their attitude towards Western Civilization.

So Senator Obama, I ask you, do you think you can change their minds?
