Hate Speech Makes a Comeback by Patrick J. Buchanan

Hate Speech Makes a Comeback by Patrick J. Buchanan

" Perhaps Obama might begin his answer as he did, two decades before, in a Nov. 16, 1990, letter as president of Harvard Law Review:

"As someone who has undoubtedly benefited from affirmative action programs during my career, and as someone who may have benefited from the Law Review's affirmative action program when I was selected to join the Review last year, I have not personally felt stigmatized."

Pat Buchanan: MSNBC, Media Helping Obama "Conceal" Records

Pat Buchanan: MSNBC, Media Helping Obama "Conceal" Records

Pat Buchanan defends why he is skeptical of President Obama's past."I'll tell you what. He went to Occidental College then suddenly he ends up at one of the best schools in the country, Columbia. He vaults from there to Harvard Law School. Suddenly he's on the Harvard Law Review. Suddenly he's the editor of Harvard Law Review. We've never seen any grades of the guy. These are legitimate questions," Buchanan said.Key quote: Pat Buchanan to Chris Matthews: "You're supposed to be a journalist."

Barack Hussein Hoover? by Patrick J. Buchanan

Barack Hussein Hoover? by Patrick J. Buchanan

" A Washington Post-ABC News poll found 78 percent of Americans oppose cutting spending on Medicare to reduce the deficit, and 69 percent oppose cutting Medicaid. Obama's plan to raise taxes on couples earning $250,000 a year or more wins the support of 72 percent of voters. A McClatchy-Marist poll found 2 in 3 Americans favoring raising taxes on those earning more than $250,000 but 4 in 5 voters opposing cutting Medicare or Medicaid. "

Very simple increase the tax rate on those making over $250,000 and reform Medicare & Medicaid.

PRINCE ALWALEED WHAT IS THE ANSWER ???

Republican Hypocrisy on Obamacare by Laurence M. Vance

Republican Hypocrisy on Obamacare by Laurence M. Vance

Laurence Vance says " Sign I saw at a pharmacy tonight when I pulled up to the drive-thru window: WE CANNOT SELL ANY PSEUDOEPHEDRINE PRODUCTS AT THE DRIVE-THRU...........
Thanks, Republicans. "

" ....One of the Republicans' main selling points in the congressional elections this year is their promise to repeal the Democratic health care reform bill, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, otherwise known as Obamacare. The fact that they didn't repeal anything after they gained control of the Congress in the 1994 election is a long-forgotten thing to most Americans. And no one salivating to vote Republican in the upcoming election seems to remember that nothing was repealed during the Bush years either — even when Republicans controlled the presidency and both houses of Congress.

The simple truth is that once in power Republicans not only never reverse the legislative damage done by Democrats, they add to it.
Although I applaud any attempt by anyone in any party to repeal the monstrosity that is Obamacare, Republican hypocrisy on this issue is equally as reprehensible.

Republicans are good at opposing socialized medicine when it is Hillarycare or Obamacare, but not very good when it is Bushcare or Republicancare.

The State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) provides federally-funded health insurance to children in families with incomes too high to qualify for Medicaid. It was created by a Republican-controlled Congress in 1997. Opposition to the program was slight, and negligible when it was up for reauthorization under President Bush. It is only under the Obama administration that some Republicans have suddenly voiced opposition to this income transfer program.

Then there is the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act. This was instituted by a Republican-controlled Congress in 2003 and signed into law by a Republican president. This expansion of the welfare state was opposed by Democrats in far greater numbers than SCHIP was ever opposed by any Republicans. The overwhelming majority of Republicans in the House and Senate now who were also in Congress in 2003 voted for the Republican version of health care reform even though they opposed Obamacare and now call for its repeal.

And who can forget the rationing and criminalization of over-the-counter allergy-relief products like Sudafed because they contain pseudoephedrine. This is due to the Combat Methamphetamine Epidemic Act, which is title VII of the USA PATRIOT Improvement and Reauthorization Act of 2005. The justification for this ridiculous legislation is that pseudoephedrine may be used in the illegal manufacture of methamphetamine. This is ultimately due to the liberty-depriving, life-destroying war on drugs, which was instituted by a Republican president, Nixon, who boldly claimed that within five years he would "stamp out drugs and declare the war won." The Combat Methamphetamine Epidemic Act imposes tremendous restrictions on buyers and merchants. Yet, it was passed overwhelmingly by a Republican-controlled Congress (unanimously in the Senate) and signed into law by a Republican president. "

Boehner the enabler

Boehner the enabler

" Obama, Reid and Boehner lied to us. Boehner has got to go! Everyone who voted for this budget has got to go because they deceived us! Spending our money is one thing – but their lies, tricks and deceit are not acceptable under any circumstances. "

Obama increased spending $700 billion in two years. The "cut" of $352 million is only one-twentieth of 1 percent of $700 billion. Those 59 Republicans who voted against this budget understand this. They also understand that conservative Americans have been betrayed.

Obama, Boehner, and Reid all knew that this scam of a deal would not cut any spending, even though it cut the discretionary budget. They all knew that they were spinning the truth when they told America that they cut the discretionary budget without explaining that was not the same as cutting actual spending. They all knew that nothing could be done to defund Planned Parenthood, Obamacare and NPR once they were included in a budget that got approved by Congress and signed by the president.


And if they didn't know these things, then they are incompetent and should be fired.  "







Steve McCann wrote: Obama's speech "was chock full of lies, deceit and crass fear-mongering. It must be said that [he] is the most dishonest, deceitful and mendacious person in a position of power I have ever witnessed" ("The Mendacity of Barack Obama," AmericanThinker.com, April 15, 2011).

McCann continued: "[His] performance was the culmination of four years of outright lies and narcissism that have been largely ignored by the media, including some in the conservative press and political class who are loath to call [him] what he is in the bluntest of terms: a liar and a fraud. That he relies on his skin color to intimidate, either outright or by insinuation [against] those who oppose his radical agenda only add to his audacity. It is apparent that he has gotten away with his character flaws his entire life, aided and abetted by sycophants around him. …"

Mychal Massie says .......

" At a time when many Americans can barely afford Burger King and a movie, Obama boasts of spending a billion dollars on his re-election campaign. Questioned at a recent appearance about the spiraling fuel costs, Obama said, "Get used to it" – and with an insouciant grin and chortle, he told another person at the event, who complained about the effect high fuel prices were having on his family, to "get a more fuel-efficient car."

The Obamas behave as if they were sharecroppers living in a trailer and hit the Powerball, but instead of getting new tires for their trailer and a new pickup truck, they moved to Washington. And instead of making possum pie, with goats and chickens in the front yard, they're spending and living large at taxpayer expense – opulent vacations, gala balls, resplendent dinners and exclusive command performances at the White House, grand date nights, golf, basketball, more golf, exclusive resorts and still more golf.

Expensive, ill-fitting and ill-chosen wigs and fashions hardly befit the first lady of the United States. The Obamas have behaved in every way but presidential – which is why it's so offensive when we hear Obama say, in order "to restore fiscal responsibility, we all need to share in the sacrifice – but we don't have to sacrifice the America we believe in."

The American people have been sacrificing; it is he and his family who are behaving as if they've never had two nickels to rub together – and now, having hit the mother lode, they're going to spend away their feelings of inadequacy at the taxpayers' expense."
