LOL - What next? Did he invent the light bulb too? Maybe he parted the waters after he got done walking on them! Could he be from one of the lost tribes? Good thing ol' slave records from 'back in the good old slave days' are available 'cause he hides today's. Maybe his ancestors preceded Native Americans...he'd claim to be natural born. Next thing you know he'll be descended from Creole royalty as well. Why can't he settle for being just the plain ol' communist?-- rfh
The media has supposedly just discovered that Barack Obama's mother is a direct descendent of the 1st American Slave...

Transcript of the portion of the Mo.25Jul11 La Raza speech given by Obama about "usurping Congress & the Constitution.":
• President Barack Obama:"Now I know some people want me to bypass congress and change the laws on my own..."• -Applause-
• Obama: Believe me, and...(smile) and, and, and believe me right now dealing with congress...the idea...
• Crowd erupts saying: "Yes You Can! Yes You Can!" • Obama laughs and smiles
• Crowd gets even louder: "Yes You Can! Yes You Can!"
• Obama:But, but, but believe me...uh...believe me the idea of doing things on my own are very tempting.
• Crowd laughs • Obama: I promise you, not just on immigration reform...
• Crowd laughs • Obama:But that's not how...that's not how our system works...
• Lady in the crowd: Change it! • Obama:...that's not how our democracy functions.
Quote from GBTV.com, "President Obama gave a speech on July 25th to La Raza and admitted that "the idea of doing things on my own is very tempting" when it came to dealing with Congress over the debt deal. And while he added the caveat that our democracy doesn't work like that – the crowd was cheering the possibility of Obamaside stepping Congress and doing things his own way.

Pat even played audio from the scene where Natalie Portman's character says,
"This is how liberty dies, with thunderous applause."
"It is frequently said that speech that is intentionally provocative and therefore invites physical retaliation can be punished or suppressed. Yet, plainly no such general proposition can be sustained. Quite the contrary. ... The provocative nature of the communication does not make it any the less expression. Indeed, the whole theory of free expression contemplates that expression will in many circumstances be provocative and arouse hostility. The audience, just as the speaker, has an obligation to maintain physical restraint." -- Thomas I. Emerson

Last week, two friends and I were discussing my sense that there is a recent and sudden surge of leftist propaganda vilifying Tea-Party supporters and Conservatives generally, especially 'Consitutionalists', defenders of the 2nd Amendment, Pro-Life and States Rights advocates.
The rhetoric being hurled by prominent Democrat Party members and MSNBC muckrakers insinuates that insurrection, armed resistance, and violence is part-in-parcel with any anti-tax, anti-Big Government, anti-socialist speech ...translation: anti-administration speech is verboten!
Having failed to marginalize the growing distrust of 'his' regime's plans to 'fundamentally transform' America, he and his fellow travelers' jack-boot fear-mongering exposes their fears of losing momentum in Congress before a repudiation at the polls on November 2nd.
Our conversations were spurred by their having visited this blog, watched some 'pundit' shows on Fox News and from some MSNBC spittle. (They don't consider the likes of Rachel Maddow and Keith Olbermann as biased commentators.)
I voiced concerns that demonizing Conservatives and Traditional American Values is merely a 'smoke screen' used to minimize publicity exposing the socialist democrat agenda of the current President and his policy co-conspirators. Of particular objection by the other two are characterizations in cartoons that imply the the current President is 'out of his league' and that Conservative commentators unfairly mock his efforts to fix America's problems.
It was my suggestion that the 'toon is not demeaning and certainly doesn't rise to the level of vehemence that was so often displayed by 'left leaning' media when it routinely "bashed" President Bush (II) with a relentless and monotonous negative mantra. (Except when they fearfully sought a leader to defend us from 'the evil East' post 9.11 when they would have willingly extolled a 'Vlad the Impaler' or "The Hammer" Martel.) They suggested that the vitriolic attacks against Bush were deserved whereas the current President should not be the 'butt' of jokes. They disagree that the current President has surrounded himself with communists, marxists and former radicals implied by this 'bumper sticker.'
The didn't agree that Bill Ayers is a friend of the current President now or in the past and denied strongly that the current President associates with communists, marxists or self described revolutionaries, ideologues, or an unrepentant domestic terrorist bomber. Though I defer on understanding his relationships, it was my impression that the two may have been, at some point, mesmerized by "The One."
It's not suprising that a new (Plum Book) hasn't been issued. The Plum Book is used to identify presidentially appointed positions within the Federal Government.
Discussing the 'health care' bill with one of the gentlemen led to an interesting take on the 'inalienable right' for all to have 'free' medical care .. when I said that it is my understanding of the Constitution that government has no business bestowing benefits on people at the expense of others nor should 'not accepting' government welfare be a 'criminal' offense. The retort to my Constitution "theory" was that the Constitution needs to be changed!
The conversation brought to mind some old mean spirited political 'editorials' from presidential campaigns of old. "The term "muckraker" was taken from the fictional character in John Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress, a man who was consigned to rake muck endlessly, never lifting his eyes from his drudgery." (quote source: http://www.u-s-history.com/pages/h920.html) Then, "Theodore Roosevelt gave the muckrakers their creative name."
Coincidentally, on Fr.23Apr10, Glenn Beck discussed two examples of vicious and personal political editorials from the 1800's ... see the video below:
"Glenn Beck Show - Friday April 23, 2010 - Free Speech Under Attack" video source:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caRga07yOYw
examples: "..the 1800 election reached a level of personal animosity seldom equaled in American politics. The Federalists attacked the fifty-seven-year-old Jefferson as a godless Jacobin who would unleash the forces of bloody terror upon the land. With Jefferson as President, so warned one newspaper, "Murder, robbery, rape, adultery, and incest will be openly taught and practiced, the air will be rent with the cries of the distressed, the soil will be soaked with blood, and the nation black with crimes." Others attacked Jefferson's deist beliefs as the views of an infidel who "writes aghast the truths of God's words; who makes not even a profession of Christianity; who is without Sabbaths; without the sanctuary, and without so much as a decent external respect for the faith and worship of Christians."
Jefferson called the Federalists a prigarchy, a play on the words "prig" and "aristocracy," .. . The Federalists .. desperately exposed the President's alleged relations with his slave, Sally Hemings, as a national scandal." (quoted from http://millercenter.org/academic/americanpresident/jefferson/essays/biography/3)
Dozens and dozens of similar hateful public attacks have been levied against other Presidents and candidates since the earliest days of our Republic. For those who support the current President, it would behoove them to dig a little deeper into American History beyond the MSNBC prattle.
As for those who are keeping an "arms length" relationship from and giving the current President 'plausible deniability' while they try, on his behalf, to vilify and discredit Americans who dissent from 'transforming America' let me suggest that they quickly review the failed play book of the former minister of the 'Reichsministerium für Volksaufklärung und Propagandaministerium' in order to see their own future past. Its followers believed also that their Führer was the Messiah that was destined to lead their country to greatness.
This administration's paranoia and its propensity for stealth and secrecy is exemplified by "Net Neutrality" legislation it is seeking. Its provisions to stifle Free Speech and criticism on the Internet is far-reaching. Once one media form is controlled, muzzling radio, print media, TV, even the pulpit is only a child's step away. Satirical parodies like the one below may be censored as could your speech in blogs.
Why would anyone, like Klein and his ilk, go "on the air" and make such preposterous statements about non-government citizenry? Is it possible that a sinister plot has been hatched? Recall that two of the Democrat candidates for the Presidency during 2008 referred, on several occasions, to "not wasting a crisis." One of those persons was elected President of the United States.
Recognizing that he and most all of his cabinet, staff and 'front-men' in Congress, media mouthpieces, and mentor George Soros are staunch anti-gun proponents. What better way to "create a crisis" than to incite some crazy person to respond to the vicious propaganda and rumors being spread about like manure on a field that they could then use as an excuse to ram gun-control legislation through Congress. It stinks yet it can fertilize the growth of a militant reaction which in turn would excuse 'crisis knee-jerk legislation', "Executive Action", and begin gun-confiscation not unlike that in Australia and England. It only takes a spark to ignite a 'rush to judgement' which has never been seen in the U.S. outside the aberration in New Orleans during the Katrina crisis.
It is no accident that the worms of deceit and dissension are crawling out of the left's bag of tricks as part of a well choreographed 'spontaneous' media blitz. Political action is usually preceded the laying of ground work among the electorate. Failing to garner public support, legislators and government leaders hunt for any excuse to mobilize against their target. What more self serving and sinister deception might be playing out before our very eyes and ears?
To force a pun, "They need to trigger a crisis."
"The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws." -- Ayn Rand (related: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j73SsNFgBO4)
P.S. My favorite 2008 Presidential candidates, more or less in this order, were: Mike Huckabee, Alan Keyes, Fred Thompson, Chuck Baldwin and Ron Paul (issues not personality.) Like many, I voted for the single 'last-man standing' opposition candidate, who regretfully didn't have a 'locked down' block of voters.
My friends opined: "Huckabee ...He's a cracker. Keyes ...an Uncle Tom." I remain nonplussed. Obviously, the 60's term "The Man" has taken on a new meaning.
I plan to post some information on an alternate to the "straight up'n down" ballot system we use for all of our elections. There is an alternative voting scheme that allows you to vote for multiple candidates/issues and in order of preference. It might resolve frustrations that some of us have on being forced to vote for a single candidate who doesn't support our positions on issues and which could also address some of the concerns about the huge amounts of monies spent by candidates trying to become "king of the mountain."

The following letter read on Glenn Beck's show, is rapidly circulating around the country. Americans everywhere identify with this 53-year-old woman. She has given us a voice. Once you read this, you may want to forward it to all of your friends...
GLENN BECK: I got a letter from a woman in Arizona. She writes an open letter to our nation's leadership:
"I am a home grown American citizen, 53, registered Democrat all my life. Before the last presidential election I registered as a Republican because I no longer felt the Democratic Party represents my views or works to pursue issues important to me. Now I no longer feel the Republican Party represents my views or works to pursue issues important to me. The fact is I no longer feel any political party or representative in Washington represents my views or works to pursue the issues important to me. Instead, we are burdened with Congressional Dukes and Duchesses who think they know better than the citizens they are supposed to represent.
There must be someone. Please tell me who you are. Please stand up and tell me that you are there and that you're willing to fight for our Constitution as it was written. Please stand up now.
You might ask yourself what my views and issues are that I would feel so horribly disenfranchised by both major political parties. What kind of nut-job am I? Well, these briefly are the views and issues for which I seek representation: One, illegal immigration. I want you to stop coddling illegal immigrants and secure our borders. Close the underground tunnels. Stop the violence and the trafficking in drugs and people. No amnesty, not again. Been there, done that, no resolution. P.S., I'm not a racist. This is not to be confused with legal immigration.
Two, the STIMULUS bill.I want it repealed and I want no further funding supplied to it. We told you No, but you did it anyway. I want the remaining unfunded 95% repealed. Freeze, repeal.
Three: Czars. I want the circumvention of our constitutional checks and balances stopped immediately. Fire the czars. No more czars. Government officials answer to the process, not to the president. Stop trampling on our Constitution, and honor it.
Four, cap and trade. The debate on global warming is not over. There are many conflicting opinions and it is too soon for this radical legislation. Quit throwing our nation into politically-correct quicksand.
Five, universal healthcare. I will not be rushed into another expensive decision that will burden me, my children, and grandchildren. Don't you dare try to pass this in the middle of the night without even reading it. Slow down! Fix only what is broken -- we have the best health care system in the world -- and test any new program in one or two states first.
Six, growing government control. I want states rights and sovereignty fully restored. I want less government in my life, not more. More is not better! Shrink it down. Mind your own business. You have enough to take care of with your real [Constitutional] obligations. Why don't you start there.
Seven, ACORN. I do not want ACORN and its affiliates in charge of our 2010 census. I want them investigated. I also do not want mandatory escrow feescontributed to them every time on every real estate deal that closes -- how did they pull that one off? Stop the funding to ACORN and its affiliates pending impartial audits and investigations. I do not trust them with taking the census with our taxpayer money. I don't trust them with any of our taxpayer money. Face up to the allegations against them and get it resolved before taxpayers get any more involved with them. If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, hello. Stop protecting your political buddies. You work for us, the people. Investigate.
Eight, redistribution of wealth. No, no, no. I work for my money. It is mine. I have always worked for people with more money than I have because they gave me jobs -- and that is the only redistribution of wealth that I will support. I never got a job from a poor person! Why do you want me to hate my employers? And what do you have against shareholders making a profit?
Nine, charitable contributions. Although I never got a job from a poor person, I have helped many in need. Charity belongs in our local communities, where we know our needs best and can use our local talent and our local resources. Butt out, please. We want to do it ourselves.
Ten, corporate bailouts. Knock it off. Every company must sink or swim like the rest of us. If there are hard times ahead, we'll be better off just getting into it and letting the strong survive. Quick and painful. (Have you ever ripped off a Band-Aid?) We will pull together. Great things happen in America under great hardship. Give us the chance to innovate. We cannot disappoint you more than you have disappointed us.
Eleven, transparency and accountability. How about it? No, really, how about it? Let's have it. Let's say we give the buzzwords a rest and have some straight honest talk. Please stop trying to manipulate and appease me with clever wording. I am not the idiot you obviously take me for. Stop sneaking around and meeting in back rooms making deals with your friends. It will only be a prelude to your criminal investigation. Stop hiding things from me.
Twelve, unprecedented quick spending. Stop it now. Take a breath. Listen to the people. Slow down and get some input from nonpoliticians and experts on the subject. Stop making everything an emergency. Stop speed-reading our bills into law. I am not an activist. I am not a community organizer. Nor am I a terrorist, a militant or a violent person. I am a parent and a grandparent. I work. I'm busy. I am busy, and I am tired. I thought we elected competent people to take care of the business of government so that we could work, raise our families, pay our bills, have a little recreation, complain about taxes, endure our hardships, pursue our personal goals, cut our lawn, wash our cars on the weekends and be responsible contributing members of society and teach our children to be the same all while living in the home of the free and land of the brave.
I entrusted you with upholding the Constitution. I believed in the checks and balances to keep from getting far off course. What happened? You are very far off course. Do you really think I find humor in the hiring of a speed reader to unintelligently ramble all through a bill that you signed into law without knowing what it contained? I do not.
It is a mockery of the responsibility I have entrusted to you. It is a slap in the face. I am not laughing at your arrogance.
Why is it that I feel as if you would not trust me to make a single decision about my own life and how I would live it but you should expect that I should trust you with the debt that you have laid on all of us and our children. We did not want the TARP bill. We said no. We would repeal it if we could. I am sure that we still cannot. There is needless urgency and recklessness in all of your recent spending of our tax dollars.
From my perspective, it seems that all of you have gone insane. I also know that I am far from alone in these feelings. Do you honestly feel that your current pursuits have merit to patriotic Americans? We want it to stop. We want to put the brakes on everything that is being rushed by us and forced upon us. We want our voice back. You have forced us to put our lives on hold to straighten out the mess that you are making. We will have to give up our vacations, our time spent with our children, any relaxation time we may have had and money we cannot afford to spend on bringing our concerns to Washington .
Our president often knows all the right buzzwords like unsustainable. Well, no kidding. How many tens of thousands of dollars did the focus group cost to come up with that word? We don't want your overpriced words. Stop treating us like we're morons.
We want all of you to stop focusing on your reelection and do the job we want done, not the job you want done or the job your party wants done. You work for us and at this rate I guarantee you not for long because we are coming. We will be heard and we will be represented.. You think we're so busy with our lives that we will never come for you? We are the formerly silent majority, all of us who quietly work, pay taxes, obey the law, vote, save money, keep our noses to the grindstone... and we are now looking at you.
You have awakened us, the patriotic freedom spirit so strong and so powerful that it had been sleeping too long. You have pushed us too far. Our numbers are great. They may surprise you. For every one of us who will be there, there will be hundreds more that could not come. Unlike you, we have their trust. We will represent them honestly, rest assured. They will be at the polls on voting day to usher you out of office.
We have cancelled vacations. We will use our last few dollars saved. We will find the representation among us and a grassroots campaign will flourish. We didn't ask for this fight. But the gloves are coming off. We do not come in violence, but we are angry. You will represent us or you will be replaced with someone who will. There are candidates among us who will rise like a Phoenix from the ashes that you have made of our constitution.
Democrat, Republican, independent, libertarian. Understand this. We don't care. Political parties are meaningless to us Patriotic Americans are willing to do right by us and our Constitution, and that is all that matters to us now.
We are going to fire all of you who abuse power and seek more. It is not your power. It is ours and we want it back. We entrusted you with it and you abused it. You are dishonorable. You are dishonest. As Americans we are ashamed of you. You have brought shame to us.
If you are not representing the wants and needs of your constituency loudly and consistently, in spite of the objections of your party, you will be fired. Did you hear? We no longer care about your political parties. You need to be loyal to us, not to them.. Because we will get you fired and they will not save you.
If you do or can represent me, my issues, my views, please stand up. Make your identity known. You need to make some noise about it. Speak up. I need to know who you are. If you do not speak up, you will be herded out with the rest of the sheep and we will replace the whole damn congress if need be one by one.
We are coming. Are we coming for you? Who do you represent? What do you represent? Listen. Because we are coming. We the people are coming."

States' Unfunded: $3.2T+! • (Dec10) From Jan'09 the deficit: $10.2T→$14.6T up $4.3T/42%! -- Federal unfunded liabilities total $84 trillion .. equal to 5.7 percent of the present value of all future GDP, which translates into about 31 percent of the long run federal revenue estimate,” the report states. “Thus federal revenues would have to rise immediately and permanently to 24.1 percent of GDP to cover the fiscal imbalance.” (source: http://dailycaller.com/2012/07/16/report-federal-unfunded-liabilities-total-84-trillion/)

A trillion seconds pass in 31,688 years. At $1/sec it would take 41,194 years just to pay off o'tax'n spend's new Feb12-Feb13 added debt - 538,696 years to pay only the national debt or 4,404,632 years to settle the debt+unfunded liabilities!
"Over the last four years our national debt has risen nearly $6 trillion, and just last week the debt topped an astounding $16 trillion. To put that in perspective, $16 trillion is enough money to fund the US military, along with the military of every NATO country combined… for the next sixteen years! Government spending is projected to hit $3.8 trillion this year alone. Even after every tax dollar paid by Americans has been counted, the government will still overspend by another $1.13 trillion.
Every single second of the day our government spends over $12,000. So in the time it takes you to read this article, roughly five minutes, our government has spent $3.6 million. It take four seconds for the government to spend what the average American earns in an entire year." (source: by Tim Phillips 17Sep12 at TownHall.com)

Nor are they one of the 'Three Stooges' but rather are shrewd implementation/drivers and fellow-travelers of policies designed to disarm the citizenry & collapse the American economy. Why? o'nocchio's grandiose scheme to "fundamentally transform America" is more than simple campaign rhetoric as can be seen by his use of "enabling acts" to circumvent the Constitution of the United States.
