Last week, Native Americans met with Pres. Obama at the White House. There was an awkward moment when Joe Biden walked in wearing a Redskins jersey... paraphrasing Leno
- If you want some idea how much farther Left Pres. Obama will turn, all you need to do is look at recent White House guests. Within the last two weeks, he invited the MSNBC crew to the White House to discuss fiscal issues (that alone has to make you either laugh your ass off or cry). One of those he invited was Al Sharpton. Now take a moment to consider this observation. Obama's point man on the fiscal cliff negotiations is Treasury Secretary Timmy Geithner, himself an admitted tax evader. Then we have Al Sharpton whose had a history of tax problems himself in addition to being a rabble-rousing, race-baiting thug.
- And regarding Susan Rice as being nominated for Sect. of State, why the outrage? Look at all the other competent people Obama has placed in positions of power and authority. In addition to Timmy Geithner, he has Eric Holder, the nation's top law enforcement officer, who lost over 2000 weapons that were freely given to Mexican drug cartels. Weapons that were probably used in murdering some of our own Homeland Security agents.
- And while the presstitute media and progressives proclaim what a great job Hillary Clinton is doing as Sect. of State (and posturing her for a 2016 run for president) , the Middle East is currently imploding, not to mention the lack of clarity in our foreign policy when it comes to Europe, Asia and South and Central America. So I say relax. Obama and his geniuses have it all under control.
- In fact, the intelligence community reported the U.S. will not be the sole superpower by 2030. Politico. This news will make progressives very happy.
- A little over 2 years ago, Pres. Obama signed into law a $2.7 billion fund specifically for those injured at Ground Zero's clean up. To date, no one---not one firefighter, construction worker, etc.---has received a penny. This is truly a disgrace. NY Post
- While I'm on Ground Zero, do you recall the uproar regarding the mosque (Park51) going up at Ground Zero about 2 years ago? Those who proposed it said it would be a "cultural center" as well as a place for prayer. Well folks, it's been open now for about a year and the only activities taking place there are praying. That's fine, but that's not what they promised to the local community. There are no cultural events taking place with the exception of martial arts classes. Jihad Watch
- Don't tell anyone. But remember when Pres. Obama declared he will transform America? He was talking about one thing: redistributing wealth. In other words, taking wealth from those who produce and giving it to those who do not.
- Student debt load is now over $1 trillion. But this should surprise no one. As I've written about often---college tuition scams---tuition at state schools has risen 72% in just the last 12 years. That's almost a 6% increase each year. That's also highway robbery. Moreover, student debt cannot be discharged by bankruptcy. It follows you your entire life even after you die. There are thousands of parents who have been stuck with their child's debt as a result of their child dying before paying off that debt. U.S. Dept. of Education
- Remember that photo of the NYPD cop who gave the "homeless" man a pair of boots? Well, it turns out, Hillman, is homeless by choice. He as a subsidized apartment paid for by the taxpayers. He also has a supportive family that continues to offer his help, but Mr. Hillman prefers the street. In fact, New Yorkers who see him often point out he's a con man who earns money by acting pathetic. NY Post
- Just a moment to reflect on one of the SEAL team members who lost his life in the successful rescue of the physician who was held by the Taliban.
