NOW DEMOCRATS WANT TO DOUBLE THE GAS TAX…

POSTER CHILD FOR THE TERMINALLY CORRUPT
And now we have yet another pathetic example of liberal logic or actually, the lack thereof. A douchebag Democrat by the name of Earl Blumenauer, from that very Blue State of Oregon, says that he has a plan that would nearly double the federal gas tax which he said is needed since the tax hasn’t been raised in years and also because there has been a decrease in fuel tax revenues that has occurred due to, now get this, the improved fuel efficiency of vehicles. Ok, so because the tax hasn’t been raised in years, we need to raise it now? Who thinks like this other than a Democrat?

Anyway, in discussing his proposal in a recent appearance on Fox News, this boob, Blumenauer, said, "First of all, we haven’t raised the gas tax in 20 years." Well then I guess it would be about the ONLY tax that hasn’t been raised since Barry came into the White House. Anyway, this moron then went on to say, "During that time, the amount that the average motorist pays per mile that they drive because of increased fuel efficiency and inflation has been cut in half," he continued. And I guess the fact that American’s are able to save themselves a little money is seen a bad thing?

So if I’ve I got it right, Blumenauer, has now introduced a House bill that would raise the federal gas tax from 18.4 cents per gallon to 33.4 per gallon. His measure would also raise the federal tax on diesel fuel from 24.4 cents to 42.8 cents per gallon. Oh, and by the way, if you’ve seen your grocery bill escalate considerably over the course of the last 5 years, what do you think raising the cost of diesel fuel, as this idiot advocates, will cause it to do? Might it most likely go up even further? So besides seeing it as being ok for you to pay more at the pump, he also thinks it’s ok for you to pay more for food.

And it’s on his website that Blumenauer says, "Instituting a reasonable gas tax increase now provides the revenues Democrats say they want with a form of a user fee which historically has been acceptable to Republicans including Ronald Reagan, who increased the gas tax by a nickel a gallon in 1982." The last time the federal gas tax was increased was in 1993, when it was raised 4.3 cents. This clown brings up Reagan as if to say because he raised the gas tax, we shouldn’t have a problem with Democrats wanting to raise it. Reagan also cut the income tax, is this moron advocating anything like that?

Barry "Almighty" has finalized new fuel economy regulations for vehicle manufacturers. These rules require that all new vehicles average 54.5 miles per gallon by the 2025 model year. And although the government estimates these requirements will increase the cost of a new car by about $2,800, what the actual cost increase to consumers will be has been subject to much debate. So now we’re going to be forced into paying more for our cars because of Democrats, and this guy has no problem with us forcing us to pay more for gas, or for food after he raises the tax on both gas and diesel.

You know, maybe, just maybe, if scumbag Democrats like this clown would allow more drilling on ‘public’ lands, which would very likely then cause the price of gas to come down, more people might actually be willing to go along with, while not necessarily a doubling of the gas tax but, possibly raising the gas tax by a reasonable amount. But that’s now how these big government socialists think. Their war on oil trumps everything else and yet they still want to jack up the price of gas that was $1.86 when Barry "Almighty’ first came into office. We, unlike government, can’t simply print more money.

THE NEED TO IMPEACH OBAMA (PART 2)


Barry "Almighty" has also established for himself a very impressive list of presidential ‘firsts.’ This too is a rather lengthy list, as Barry has been quite busy over the course of the last 5 years as he has been far more interested in acting as if he were some sort of dictator than as an elected president. Remember, if you can, how Barry promised us that, if elected, his would be the most transparent administration in history. Well as they say, truth is often times much stranger than fiction, because Barry’s administration has, without a doubt, been the most secretive in history.

So what follows is a list of Barry has been up to over the course of his presidency and the string of firsts that he has managed to attain for himself:

So there you have it. "We the People" are rapidly running out of time, and options, if we are to have any hope of being able to salvage what’s left of our country. And yet I remain unable to detect any real sense of urgency in those around me when it comes to recognizing the need to put forth even the weakest of attempts in an effort to prevent any further damage. People seem completely oblivious to that which is going on right before their eyes. It becomes more imperative every single day that we snap out of the trance we are in and take whatever action is necessary to stop the insanity.

THE NEED TO IMPEACH OBAMA (PART 1)


Over the course of what has been his relatively short time in office, historically speaking, Barry "Almighty" has managed to accumulate for himself a rather impressive list of offenses that, if he were a white guy, would have long ago earned for him the very same asterisk in the history books that we see next to Andrew Johnson and ‘Slick Willie’ Clinton. But his saving grace seems to be the fact that he’s black. As such he has been spared that which he so righteously deserves. But what is it about the fact that he’s black that has allowed him to avoid the punishment that others would have long ago been made to suffer?

Anyway, let me apologize up front for what turned out to be a rather lengthy post, but please don’t blame me. Because the fault lies not with me, but with the individual, in this care Barry "Almighty", who has managed to rack up what is the following list of offenses that have been committed in what has been a relatively short period of time. If anything, this list very clearly demonstrates what can be done when we have as president a man who is so intent upon destroying America. His goal has always been one to "fundamentally transform" our country. And Barry has been very successful in that endeavor.

What follows is the list of offenses committed by Barry "Almighty" which have been gathered from numerous other sources:

• $6 trillion in new national debt under Obama…after he promised to decrease the deficit.

• Obamacare — A massive and incredibly convoluted bill which exponentially increases the federal government’s control over our personal lives…which neither Obama nor a single Democrat even read before passing, and which will likely bankrupt the nation.

• In both the 2008 and 2012 presidential elections, the Obama campaign purposely disabled the credit card verification system for its Web site donations, allowing anyone from any foreign country to donate with no limit and no proof of identity; in both elections it was demonstrated that people overseas and people with obviously false identities were able to donate to Obama campaign, in direct violation of several laws. To this day it is not known what percentage of Obama’s campaign funds are illegally obtained, since there is no documentation.

• Billions of taxpayer dollars gambled on "green" companies like Solyndra, NextEra, Ener1, Solar Trust and many others — all of which went bankrupt.

• An intentional refusal to enforce federal immigration laws.

• Unemployment at or above 8% for almost his entire term in office (which was actually closer to 15% actual unemployment).

• Operation Fast & Furious — a government-sponsored illegal gun-running scheme designed to purposely go awry so as to induce public outcry for gun control.

• Spent 20 years listening to a racist anti-American pastor (Rev. Jeremiah Wright), whom Obama described as a mentor. On March 18, 2008, Obama gave a speech in which he said "I could no more disown Jeremiah Wright than I could disown my own grandmother" and "[Wright's church, Trinity United] embodies the black community in its entirety." Now Obama tries to pretend that Jeremiah Wright doesn’t exist, and that his extremist anti-white philosophy didn’t influence Obama’s worldview.

• Increased the percentage of Americans dependent on food stamps to unprecedented levels (now over 15% of the nation’s population).

• Militarily intervened in Libya in 2011 without the Congressional approval required by the War Powers Act — technically an impeachable offense.

• Before he entered politics, Obama worked as a lawyer suing banks in landmark cases, forcing them to give home loans to unqualified minority borrowers — a practice now understood as one of the primary initial causes of the eventual housing bubble and market collapse.

• Handed out over 1,200 waivers to politically connected donors exempting them from the onerous requirements of Obamacare.

• Greatly expanding the number of unaccountable "czars," which essentially amounts to unilaterally adding new federal departments with no congressional oversight — leading to a true "bureaucracy" in the original sense (rule by unelected bureaucrats).

• Using taxpayer dollars to bail out the private pension funds of autoworkers’ unions at GM & Chrysler.

• Illegally ending the welfare-to-work requirements passed by Congress.

• Doling out $800 billion in stimulus cash for "shovel-ready" jobs that didn’t exist — the money just evaporated with no measurable economic benefit.

• Alienating and isolating Israel, our strongest ally in the Middle East.

• Apologizing to Islamists and terrorists for offending them.

• Under Obama’s watch, for the first time in history America’s credit rating was downgraded, due to his poor economic policies.

• Stopped American oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico, allowing other nations with worse environmental records to drill instead — thereby managing to both weaken our economy and damage the environment simultaneously.

• Proposed in 2008 to intentionally bankrupt the coal industry — and now lies to voters and workers in coal-producing regions about his true intent.

• Pretends to be concerned about skyrocketing energy prices, when in fact he vowed to increase them on purpose (so as to make alternative energy schemes more competitive.)

• In a primary debate against Hillary Clinton in 2008, Obama said he would never force people to buy health insurance, since those without it couldn’t afford to buy it. Less than two years later, he rammed through Obamacare, which does indeed force people to buy health insurance.

• During the 2008 campaign, Obama repeatedly promised that if he was elected "No family making less than $250,000 will see any form of tax increase." This promise was broken over and over again once he was elected.

• In 2008 Obama vowed if elected to increase security along the U.S.-Mexican border — and then in 2010 stopped construction of a "virtual fence" on the border and re-routed money earmarked for border security to other projects.

• Cash for Clunkers, which doled out taxpayer money to anyone who wanted to replace their old cars, but which mostly only ended up subsidizing the puchase of foreign-made cars by people who could have afforded them on their own anyway; meanwhile, the traded-in cars were all destroyed, creating a shortage and thereby increasing the cost of used cars, hurting the pocketbooks of poor people.

• Violated the U.S. Constitution by authorizing assassinations and drone strikes to kill American citizens abroad — without due process.

• Was caught on a "hot mike" promising the President of Russia that he would cave in to their demands for a weaker missile shield — after he was re-elected and no longer had to keep up the pretense that he sought to defend America.

• Appointed Van Jones, a former avowed communist who supported a "9/11 Truth" petition, to be "Green Jobs Czar."

• Appointed Anita Dunn, who said Chairman Mao was her "favorite philosopher," to be White House Communications Director.

• Appointed John Holdren, who perviously entertained the notion of forced mass sterilzation to stop overpopulation, to be Science Czar.

• Appointed Steven Chu, who openly advocated an artificial increase in gasoline prices to $10/gallon (and similar increases in other energy prices) to be Secretary of Energy.

• Appointed Kevin Jennings, who led a group that promoted X-rated "sex-positive" textbooks for 13-year-olds, instructed teenagers at a conference how to perform "fisting" (anal penetration by fists), who refused to report instances of statutory rape, and who expressed admiration for a member of NAMBLA, to be America’s "Safe School’s Czar."

• When states voted to enforce the federal immigration laws which the federal government refused to enforced, Obama sued to stop them.

• Blocked continued construction of the Keystone Pipeline, thereby intentionally reducing energy resources for the US and forcing Canada to sell more of its oil to China.

• Repeatedly changed his position on gay marriage over the years, depending on what was politically expedient at the moment and which intended audience he was addressing.

• Before he was president, Obama staunchly opposed raising the national debt limit — but once elected, he insisted that it be raised.

• When giving a 2009 speech in France that he must have assumed Americans would never hear, he described the United States as "arrogant" and "dismissive" (while also criticizing Europe elsewhere in the speech).

• When states tried to stop election fraud with voter ID laws, Obama sued to prevent them from doing so.

• Instructed Attorney General Eric Holder to stonewall any investigation into the voter intimidation case against the New Black Panthers.

• Promised in 2008 that once elected he would officially recognize the Armenian Genocide; but to this date he has still failed to do so, caving in to threats and pressure from Turkey.

• Vowed to end the influence of lobbyists in Washington, but under Obama’s watch their influence has only increased.

• When he was first running for President, Obama promised, "I will not sign any non-emergency bill without giving the American public an opportunity to review and comment on the White House website for five days." Needless to say, he has broken that promise with almost every bill he has signed since.

• Aided and abetted the "Arab Spring" which deposed existing secular governments across North Africa, leading to a regional power vacuum which was filled by Al Qaeda, the Muslim Brotherhood, and other hardline Islamists.

• Refused to provide assistance or support the the earlier secular Iranian democracy uprising, allowing them to be crushed by the Islamic fundamentalist Iranian regime.

• In his first months in office, Obama bowed to the king of Saudi Arabia, the president of China, the Emperor of Japan, and President of Mexico, among others.

• Ordered NASA to make one of its top priorities not space exploration or scientific research but "Muslim outreach."

• Used Obamacare as a pretext to greatly increase the size and power of the IRS (which was given 16,000 new agents and additional mandates to penalize taxpayers for noncompliance).

• Used the IRS to harass conservative businesses.

• In the GM bailout, he illegally shortchanged investors who according to bankruptcy laws were first in line to be recompensed; instead, he gave their share to the unions.

• Shut down oil drilling in the US, but then turned around and lent $2 billion to Brazil to support their government-controlled oil-drilling effort — and then promised the US would become one of Brazil’s biggest oil customers.

• Sued Boeing in an effort to control where businesses could locate, kowtow to the unions, and block the creation of 1,000 jobs in South Carolina, a right-to-work (i.e. no forced unionization) state.

• Adopted a longstanding Socialist political slogan, "Forward!", as his 2012 campaign motto.

• Sent insulting form letters to the families of dead SEALs.

• Neither disavowed nor distanced himself from anti-Romney campaign ads which threatened or implied violence against Republicans.

• Shortly after the recent eruption of anti-American violence in North Africa, Obama went to Las Vegas to do his debate preparation in a hotel…with a romanticized North Africa theme.

• Said in an interview that the Muslim call to prayer was "one of the prettiest sounds on earth at sunset."

• Union boss and far-left activist Andy Stern has visited Obama in the White House at least 53 times, at last count — greater access than any other private citizen.

• Hosted at the White House many Islamist members of groups associated with Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood, etc.

• Sponsored performances by and attended fundraisers with radical rappers like Michael Franti and Common, both of whose lyrics have in some cases been anti-police, anti-white, and anti-America.

• Hired Timothy Geithner, who is documented as cheating on his own personal taxes, to be Secretary of the Treasury.

• Told Joe "the Plumber" Wurzelbacher that it was good to "spread the wealth around."

• Told small business owners nationwide in a 2012 speech that "you didn’t build that" — implying that they should not claim credit for their own success, since taxpayers (i.e. themselves and other business owners) had funded the national infrastructure.

• Insulted the British people by rudely returning to them a bust of Churchill which previously had been a ceremonial gift on display at the White House; when later confronted on this inexplicable action, he lied about it.

• Canceled plans to complete a missile defense shield in Poland, a move which was highly praised by Russia — the very nation whose missile threat would have been neutralized if the shield had been completed.

• By loudly publicizing (for personal political gain) the identity of exact SEAL teams who had killed Osama bin Laden, Obama made them a target for reprisals by Islamists; a short time later 22 SEALS were shot down and killed in Afghanistan, their worst loss of life ever.

• Established an extra-Constitutional top secret "kill list" of people (including Americans) Obama claims the right to kill on sight, and then bragged about it publicly.

• Set up a special email account, "Flag@Whitehouse.gov," to which Americans were supposed to inform the government of anyone they heard spreading "disinformation" about Obama’s health care overhaul. (This was the first of three different "spy on your friends and neighbors" programs.)

• "Attack Watch" was Obama’s second Big Brother attempt, a Web site on which you would report "attacks" on Obama’s proposals and ideology; it was quickly shut down due to outrage and mockery.

• Finally, Obama set up the "Truth Team" program which encouraged citizens to report to the government any friends or relatives they hear repeating "lies" about Obama. The Truth Team site still exists.

• Twisted the arms of defense contractors to not issue layoff notices in early November, so as to avoid causing bad news for Obama right before the election — even though federal law (the "WARN Act") requires such notices.

• After the attacks on American interests in North Africa on September 11, 2012, Obama gave a speech to the U.N. and declared "The future must not belong to those who slander The Prophet of Islam" — transferring the blame from the attackers onto the makers of a film trailer that supposedly "offended" the Islamists.

• Repeatedly snubbed and got into public tiffs with Benjamin Netanyahu, who as the leader of Israel is supposed to be Obama’s closest colleague in international affairs.

• On May 19, 2011, Obama told Israel they must return to the 1967 borders as a pre-condition for continuing talks with the Palestinians — even though the status of the borders was the main issue the talks were supposed to address.

• Encouraged politically biased hiring practices in the Justice Department.

• Soon after taking office, Obama rescinded the "Mexico City Policy," which previously had banned NGOs which are supported by American taxpayer funds from using those funds to perform abortions in foreign countries.

• Attempted to force returning veterans to pay huge increases for their health coverage…as a way to generate more funding for his Obamacare provisions.

• In June of 2011, he anointed his own underage daughters as "senior staff members" so that their vacation to Africa would be paid for with taxpayer money.

• Interviews with high school classmates revealed that Obama was a heavy and frequent user of marijuana in his teenage years (not to mention his self-admitted cocaine use in college).

• Played over 100 rounds of golf during his first three years in office, meaning that he was on the links close to 10% of the days he has been president.

• Voted to allow post-birth abortions (i.e. facilitating the deaths of babies who survive late-term abortions) not just once but three times in a row as an Illinois state senator.

• The pastor whom Obama selected to give the national benediction at his 2009 inauguration recently declared that "all white people are going to Hell."

• Sided with Hugo Chavez and the Castro regime regarding the Honduran Constitutional Crisis of 2009, the first time ever that the U.S. formed a political alliance with socialist governments in Latin America.

• Obama Administration OKed the nomination of Chas Freeman to chair the National Intelligence Council (which coordinates intelligence reports from all government agencies), despite the fact that he was openly hostile to Israel and strongly favored Arabist goals. (He later withdrew under pressure.)

• Chinese pianist Lang Lang played an offensively anti-American song at a 2011 White House dinner where Obama hosted Chinese president Hu Jintao, to the delight and amazement of the communist Chinese visitors, while Obama just sat there and smiled (the song’s Chinese lyrics describe Americans as "warmongering jackals").

• There was a great deal of (still unverified) suspicion that the company LightSquared received favorable treatment from the Obama administration for approval of its broadband technology which interfered with the GPS system; an Air Force general claimed he was pressured by the Obama administration to downplay his criticism of LightSquared’s technology in sworn testimony.

• Obama’s Department of Energy awarded $529 million to Fisker Automotive to build their Karma hybrid electric cars — even though they are manufactured in Finland, cost over $100,000 each, and tend to explode.

• When Inspector General Gerald Walpin discovered during a 2009 investigation that one of Obama’s political allies (the mayor of Sacramento) was misusing government funds for personal gain, Obama unceremoniously fired Walpin — even though rooting out fraud was the job description of the Inspector General.

• More than once Obama made so-called "recess appointments" when the Senate was not actually in recess, which directly violates Constitutional rules about how appointments must be made; in each case it was his way of getting his political allies into certain key positions without them being vetted or approved by the Senate, as required.

• After Nidal Malik Hasan massacred 13 people at Fort Hood while shouting "Allahu Akbar" so as to become a martyr for Islam, the Obama administration refused to classify his action as "terrorism" and instead deemed it merely "workplace violence."

• Despite the fact that the Falkland Islands have been part of Great Britain since 1833 and that Great Britain is supposed to be our strongest ally, Obama essentially sided with Argentina in its new claim on the Falklands, not only by adopting the Argentine position that their status is open to negotiation, but even by (attempting to) refer to the islands by their Spanish name (Malvinas).

• Convened the National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform (a.k.a. the Simpson-Bowles commission) in order to address a major economic crisis…and then summarily dismissed and ignored their recommendations.

• Criticized the Supreme Court’s legal reasoning (about the Citizen’s United decision) during a State of the Union address, which many considered a dangerous precedent as it appeared to place political pressure on the court, violating the Constitution’s separation of powers; but his bullying seems to have later paid off, when the Supreme Court apparently altered its Obamacare decision so as to not ruffle any political feathers.

• On April 27, 2009, Obama’s staff (possibly at his direction) ordered Air Force One to make an unnecessary very low flight over part of Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty, which many residents mistakenly assumed must be a second 9/11 attack in progress; turned out that it was just a stunt to get a photo op of Obama’s plane next to the Statue of Liberty.

• Obama somehow managed to insert mentions of himself into the official biographies of earlier presidents on the White House Web site — even presidents from the 19th century. After public outcry, the narcissistic Obama mentions were quietly removed without comment.

• Intentionally misquotes the Declaration of Independence in speeches, often leaving out the words "by their Creator" in the famous passage "…are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights," which Obama instead has recited as "…are endowed with certain unalienable rights."

• In June of 2009, Obama’s Solicitor General (and now Supreme Court Justice) Elena Kagan filed a legal brief to prevent the families of 9/11 victims from appealing their lawsuits against the Saudi royal family for financing the 9/11 attacks.

• The 2009 National Christmas Tree in the White House was decorated with ornaments depicting Chairman Mao, a drag queen, and a picture of Mount Rushmore that included Obama’s own head next to George Washington’s.

• Compelled Catholic and other religious organizations to provide health plans with free contraception, even though such requirements violate their rights of religious freedom and conscience.

• It was revealed only after Obama became president that during the 1990s he was a leading member of the "New Party," a socialist-aligned far-left radical group in Chicago.

• Lied about his close associations with former Weather Underground terrorist Bill Ayers; pretended the two barely knew each other, when multiple sources document they were friends and close colleagues for years.

• When Obama was inaugurated as President on January 20, 2009, he at first flubbed the oath of office, so he had to re-take it behind closed doors for his inauguration to be valid. He did so, but during this second, true inauguration in private, he purposely failed to place his hand on a Bible, as is traditional — the first president ever to not swear the oath of office on the Bible.

• Obama’s own author bio in his literary agent’s catalog and on their Web site stated for 17 consecutive years that he was born in Kenya; this claim remained intact despite other portions of the bio being altered and updated repeatedly. It was only in 2007 after he decided to run for the presidency that the "born in Kenya" claim was taken down. The original info must necessarily have come from Obama himself; some theorize he likely falsely claimed foreign birth in order to gain admission or scholarships in college, and never bothered to fix his lie.

• After winning the 2008 election but before being sworn in, Obama bombastically concocted the official-seeming "Office of the President-Elect" as if it was some kind of real government department; in fact, it was just a self-congratulatory title he made up to look important before he actually became president.

• Obama administration came up with the bizarre euphemism "man-caused disasters" to describe acts of terrorism — because he wants to downplay terrorism as a significant political issue.

• For three years in a row his official budget proposals to Congress received exactly zero votes — not even a single vote from Democrats.

• Relied on an Islamic fundamentalist militia group called "The Martyrs of the February the 17th Revolution Brigade" to provide security at the American mission in Benghazi — and they not only failed to prevent the attack but perhaps even joined in on it.

• During the debate over Obamacare in 2009, Obama bluntly stated that doctors like to perform amputations rather than practice preventive medicine for no other reason than that they make a greater profit from amputations. The American College of Surgeons demanded an apology, which never arrived.

• Since 2008 the Los Angeles Times has been in possession of a videotape showing Obama honoring and praising anti-Western anti-Israel academic Edward Said, but they have steadfastly refused to release it to this day, for no discernible reason other than their belief it would damage Obama’s reputation.

• When the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe recently held a conference on human rights, Obama sent an American representative — Salam al-Marayati, a Truther who blamed Israel for the 9/11 attacks and who also praises Hezbollah and Hamas. To the nations of Europe, al-Marayati spoke for all Americans on the topic of human rights.

• Obama’s Department of Homeland Security specifically warned that Americans who are "dedicated to a single issue, such as opposition to abortion or immigration" are potential terrorists, as are libertarian-minded voters who "favor of state or local authority" over centralized power. These "rightwing extremists" (who hold political beliefs shared by a majority of Americans) are deemed a greater threat to the nation than actual revolutionaries or jihadists.

• While campaigning in 2008 Obama declared that it was "unpatriotic" that Bush had increased the national debt at a rate of half a trillion dollars per year; but under Obama the rate of national debt increase has accelerated to almost three times the Bush rate ($6 trillion in new debt in under four years) — yet Obama has never apologized nor declared himself unpatriotic.

• For decades, every president has attended a "daily intelligence briefing" which updates him on critical world events each morning. Obama has skipped 60% of his daily intelligence briefings, including the ones leading up to the attack in Benghazi.

So, my friends, I leave it up to you. But does it seem right that just because Barry happens to be 50 percent black, he should be permitted to continue with what has been, from the very beginning, an all out offensive not only against our Constitution, but also his accrueing of a staggering amount of public debt, his attack on our military and national security and his reckless disregard for the will of the American people, except those who belong to his most-favored constituencies. Barry represents what is a clear and present danger to this country, and as such, we have no other option but impeachment.

SAY GOODBYE TO MARTIN BASHIR…


Well it would seem that we’re not going to have old Marty Bashir to kick around anymore. Bashir, one of the many turds who regularly appear on what has become recognized as being the ratings toilet of cable news, MSNBC, has now been, officially flushed. Some of you may have heard how it was, just over a couple of weeks ago, that Marty, here, delivered a rather harsh piece of commentary that culminated with his recommendation that someone should "s-h-i-t" in former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin‘s mouth.

Now while Marty did his best to calm the storm by offering what was referred to as an apology on his next broadcast, there remained a chorus of critics who continued to demand that some sort of action be taken against the foulmouthed host. So after what was reported as being a "vacation" for the host earlier this week, Marty announced on Wednesday afternoon, that he and MSNBC were officially parting ways. Not that he’ll be missed all that much. Now if we could only get rid of Schultz and Matthews. Oh well, I can dream.

Anyway, here’s the statement from Martin Bashir, via email:

"After making an on-air apology, I asked for permission to take some additional time out around the Thanksgiving holiday. Upon further reflection, and after meeting with the President of MSNBC, I have tendered my resignation. It is my sincere hope that all of my colleagues, at this special network, will be allowed to focus on the issues that matter without the distraction of myself or my ill-judged comments.

I deeply regret what was said, will endeavor to work hard at making constructive contributions in the future and will always have a deep appreciation for our viewers – who are the smartest, most compassionate and discerning of all television audiences. I would also wish to express deepest gratitude to my immediate colleagues, and our contributors, all of whom have given so much of themselves to our broadcast."

Actually, I’m sure the only thing this turd regrets is finally being held to account for the stupid shit that he said, no pun intended. And I’m sure he was more than a little surprised by the level of outrage that was directed his way. But let’s face it, Marty is just one in a crowd of many who all happen to think the very same way that he does. They feel they have the right to say anything they want about anyone who has the commonsense to disagree with their rather twisted view of the world. So, to Marty, I gladly say good riddance.

WE DON’T HEAR “OBAMACARE” MUCH ANYMORE…


I have made it abundantly clear, and on a number of previous occasions, that I have a rather low opinion of Democrats and ‘Old Gasbag" Steny Hoyer in particular. He is essentially nothing more than a rabid socialist, which, I suppose, should come as no surprise since he hails from the People’s Republic of Maryland. And it was recently that old Steny made a bit of an admission regarding his zealousness to apply credit to Barry for that which now seems to have many people, and more every day, or so it would seem, extremely pissed off at both Barry and the Democrats because they feel they were lied to. But then, that would only be because they were lied to. REPEATEDLY!

You see, old Steny now says he regrets that he has used the moniker "Obamacare" in making reference to Barry "Almighty’s" signature healthcare program. He recently said, "Yeah, I wish I hadn't called it 'Obamacare' before, because that has politicized it and has been used by Republicans as a pejorative term," Hoyer said. But then I seem to recall, and not all that long ago, that even Barry was more than happy to run around referring to this debacle in the very same manner. These days though, you rarely hear it being referred to as "Obamacare", unless, of course, it’s the Republicans doing the talking. Democrats now stick to the official title, "The Affordable Care Act."

The White House decided to embrace 'Obamacare' rather than fight it, even encouraging supporters to use the Twitter hashtag "#ilikeobamacare." In fact, it was back in 2012 while at a fundraiser in Atlanta, that Barry very proudly declared, "You want to call it 'Obamacare' — that's okay, because I do care." He also told a University of Denver audience that same year, "I actually like the name. Because I do care — that's why we fought so hard to make it happen." Well, as I mentioned earlier, these days it’s a pretty rare event when you hear any Democrat, anywhere, refer to this blatant attempt to nationalize our healthcare system as anything other than the "Affordable Care Act."

And according to the Washington Times, old Steny told reporters just this past Tuesday, "The Affordable Care Act is the Affordable Care Act" and a fundamentally positive development for Americans. "You know what Obama says, though, which I think is correct?" Hoyer remarked. "He says it's going to be called by the Republicans — Obamacare — right up until the time it works." Actually, it will be called Obamacare right up until that time when we’re finally able, and I’m quite sure with help from some Democrats, to get rid of it. Many Democrats remain quite convinced that it will actually be an issue that they will be able to run on for the midterms next November.

So I guess we’ll see if that comes to pass. Right now I wouldn’t be willing to bet the farm on it. And I’m sure that both Barry and those Democrats who are up for re-election will be pulling out all the stops in their efforts to blame Republicans for the fact that Obamacare is the failure that it is. But we knew it was going to be, people were warned about how this thing was going to be a fiasco three years ago. And for the life of me I can’t see how they hope to pin blame on the very ones who were ask to provide no input, were not asked to participate in drafting the legislation, and none of who, in the end, chose to vote in favor of it. But they’re Democrats, and so will try because it’s all they have.

And so now, Barry "Almighty" has vowed, and very forcefully so, that this thing called Obamacare will not be repealed "as long as I am president." Which is, I guess" the political equivalent of "over my dead body." And I must admit, that there is nothing that would give me greater pleasure than to have this arrogant son-of-a-bitch be made to choke on those very words! But how best to do that, that is the question. Barry seems to be under the impression that we the people simply have no choice but to comply with what are, essentially, ‘his’ demands. We must obey, or face the consequences that will surely come our way should we choose to resist. But resist we must.

MORE ON THE RACIST HISTORY OF THE DEMOCRAT PARTY...


The Democrat Party continues to work very hard at keeping its rather sinister past hidden away and well out of sight from those with prying eyes. While it’s a fact that the party has never been one that has supported freedom or the rights of the individual, you wouldn’t know that to hear any of its members speak. But make no mistake, the Democrat Party of today remains unchanged, it remains as the same collection of shady characters that it always has been. Their primary focus has always been, and it remains still today, one that seeks out opportunities to create new and improved ways of placing limits on freedom while, at the same time, increasing the size and scope of government. And sadly, I think it can be said that they are winning, and the result is that freedom in America is slowly being made to die. And strangely enough, the American people just don’t seem to care all that much. Apparently, they can’t be bothered by such a trivial thing.

THE RATHER DARK HISTORY OF THE DEMOCRAT PARTY...


Democrats have been very successful, over the years, in their attempt to rewrite history, especially when it comes to their approach to race relations in this country. This political party which brought into being the Ku Klux Klan, and is the party of Jim Crow and segregation, has long portrayed itself as being the party that has always supported equal rights. And, sadly, blacks have essentially been sold out by the likes of Al 'Bull Horn' Sharpton and Jesse 'The Extortionist' Jackson in the effort to keep blacks very firmly on the Democrat Plantation. 

PROGRESSIVISM...AMERICA'S CANCER...


Those who describe themselves as 'progressives' have been steadily advancing their cause since the early 1900s. And their goal has always been to move this country to essentially the spot in our history where we now find ourselves with Barry "Almighty". And while it may prove to be very difficult, if not impossible, to reverse that which has been underway for decades, that doesn't mean that we should not put forth our best efforts in at least making the attempt.

LIBERALS FEEL COMPELLED TO LIE ABOUT AMERICA...


Liberals have been telling lies about this country for decades.  It's all part of their concerted effort to turn 'We the People' against our own country. Because if we do that, it then creates an opportunity for these self-descibed defenders of the little people to take what it was that the Founders handed to us for safe-keeping and to twist it into something completely unrecognizable. They continue in their efforts to create a utopia here on Earth, but all they succeed in bringing about is abject misery for all.

THE OBAMACARE NIGHTMARE CONTINUES…


There is very little disagreement these days that the launch of healthcare.gov was, to put it politely, "unsuccessful." But according to White House Spokesmoron, Jay "The Lying Sack Of Shit" Carney, that’s really beside the point. Because according to this imbecile, "I think the heart of the matter is, was the launch of the website unsuccessful? The answer is yes. Was it absolutely our responsibility to take every measure necessary to make the fixes we could make so that that website functioned more effectively for the Americans who want -- they don't want an effective website. They want health insurance. They want affordable, quality coverage. And that's what we're working to achieve." That’s not what we’ve seen so far.

Most of the questions directed at Carney on Monday involved the problem-plagued website, which was quickly overwhelmed with visitors, 375,000 by Monday noontime, according to Carney’s count. The "improved" website, instead of shutting down, now simply sends excess visitors off to a waiting queue, where they can leave an email address requesting notification when the website isn't so busy. It was over the weekend, that folks on ‘Team Barry "Almighty"’ said the technical team is now "operating with private sector velocity and effectiveness" as it continues to improve the website. Ok folks, so what’s that tell ya? I mean isn’t that like sort of admitting that just maybe the government just isn’t up to this task? Just sayin’.

Anyway, one enterprising young journalist asked Carney if the government could keep up that pace in the days ahead? Carney responded, "Well, I'd say a couple of things about that. The answer is yes, we can, in the days ahead, continue to work around the clock, as we have in recent days and weeks, to make the necessary improvements." And the song and dance routine continued, "What is absolutely the case is that the private sector does some things very well and better than the government can, and running effective websites may be one of them, is one of them. What the Affordable Care Act demonstrates is that it is important for government to take action in order to, for example, do something the private sector has failed to do, which is reduce the inflation rate in health care costs." Oh really?

And on he went, saying, "What we saw prior to the passage of the Affordable Care Act was enormous increases annually in the amount of money that this country spends on health care. And what we have seen since the passage of the Affordable Care Act, contradicting every prediction made by Republicans who opposed it, is that the cost of health care and the growth in those costs have been declining. And that is a significant goal set by the Affordable Care Act and a significant achievement over these three years. These three years have seen the lowest growth in health care costs of any time in the past half-century." You know, I just don’t understand how someone can so blatantly lie like this and still expect us to believe what’s being said.

Let’s just say that there has been a slowing down in the cost of healthcare that has occurred, as Carney says. But isn’t it far more likely that it has been caused more by our extremely sluggish economy than by anything having to do with the Affordable Care Act, aka Obamacare? And another thing, while Obamacare will subsidize premiums for some Americans, millions more are going to get screwed as they will be forced to pay much more than they did previously for an insurance policy that, by law, will now cover services that many don’t want or need. But, you see, that doesn’t seem to matter all that much to the Democrat control-freaks who created this never-ending nightmare that the American people are now being forced to live through.

FOOD STAMPS BOOST THE ECONOMY? WHO KNEW?


When looking over how it is that liberals come to determine economic policy, it’s always important to keep in mind that they tend to view such things as food stamps and unemployment ‘benefits’ as being those things that stimulate the economy much better than do such things as lower taxes and creating an environment that’s actually conducive for job creation. And nothing proves this point better than to look back over the last 5 years where we see that only a tad bit more than 400,000 ‘new’ full-time jobs were actually created, while at the same time 11 Million folks were chased from the nation’s workforce. Meanwhile, the number of folks who now depend on the government to feed them, courtesy of food stamps, has now ballooned to over 47 Million people.

And in what was described as being a Thanksgiving Day message which was posted on the White House website, it was noted how the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), aka food stamps, now ‘helps’ millions of Americans put food on their table and has actually been quite successful in keeping millions of Americans out of poverty. And in what I would think is something that would normally be viewed as being sort of an indictment of the last five years, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the number of Americans now on food stamps has gone up by a staggering 67.7 percent. In other words since Barry first became president, he has been far more successful in his efforts to get people hooked on the government, than he has been in encouraging job creation.

Anyway, and as hysterically stupid as this may sound, this idiotic little propaganda website also went on to make the rather ludicrous claim, "What's more, SNAP is boosting the economy right now," the infographic says. "SNAP's effect extends beyond the food on a family's table--to the grocery stores, truck drivers, warehouses, processing plants and farmers that helped get it there." According to the White House says every $5 in new SNAP benefits generates as much as $9 in economic activity for participating grocery stores and farmer's markets. "It's estimated that an additional $1 billion in SNAP benefits supports an additional 8,900 to 17,900 full-time-equivalent jobs -- including 3,000 farm jobs," so claimed the White House. So I guess those on food stamps are seen as doing their part to strengthen the economy?

Then this cockamamie bullshit message turned into what was essentially nothing more than a political ad as it went on tell those who wasted the amount of time that it took to visit the site, that as they prepared for their Thanksgiving feasts, a bill being put forward by those evil Republicans would cause nearly 4 million Americans to lose their taxpayer-funded food money next year. Now the Republican legislation being referenced here, that was sponsored by Eric Cantor (R-Va.), would cut around $4 billion annually from the $80 billion-a-year food stamp program and allow states to set new work requirements for recipients. The truth is that at some point there will simply be no more money, and then instead of it being cut by such a trivial amount, it will simply come to an end.

People who need food stamps will continue to get them, Cantor said after the House passed the bill this past September. But, he said, "if you're able-bodied, you should be willing to work." And if no jobs are available, "you could go and participate in community service activities or a workfare program." And while that may, in fact, sound reasonable to many, old ‘Dingy Harry’ Reid, of course, said the Senate would never pass what he described as being "such hateful, punitive legislation." In fiscal 2013, a record 47,666,124 people were getting SNAP benefits, compared with 28,409,880 in fiscal 2008, which ended on Sept. 30, 2008--and was the last full fiscal year before Obama took office in January 2009. That is an increase of 19,256,244--or 67.7 percent--in five years.

So I ask you, if forcing more and more people onto the government dole is such a boon to our economy, then why not take things a step further and force every man, woman and child in the country onto some form of government assistance. If we were to do that wouldn’t that tend to stimulate our economy even more? Such is the bizarre logic that Barry and the Democrats are trying to get us to actually accept. And the sad thing is, is that there are plenty of morons who seem to be more than willing to do just that. I know, I work with some of them. And it would seem that those same folks are able to find some level of humor in the current mess that our country is currently in, which has only been made worse by the guy they voted for. And that I just don’t quite get.

RED CHINESE TROOPS ON AMERICAN SOIL...


Word now comes to us that troops from Red China have already set foot on American soil, thanks to Barry "Almighty" and his socialist administration.  These are very dangerous times in which we now live, my friends.

‘BAGHDAD JIM’ MCDERMOTT, DUMB AS DIRT…


Are there very many of you out there who, like me, tend to get more than just a bit nauseated whenever you hear some idiotic liberal making references to Jesus. Those would be, of course, one of those very same liberals who think it somehow inappropriate for there to be a manger scene to be put up down in the town square this time of year, or to have Holiday Break instead of Christmas Break or other anti-Christmas, anti-religion nonsense that we’re constantly subjected on what is nearly a constant basis.

Anyway, what brings me to even talk about this is the fact that we, very recently, had one of those liberal loons, ‘Baghdad Jim’ McDermott, make an appearance on Al Sharpton’s program on MSNBC. It was then, and in what I guess was an effort to somehow justify the ridiculous level to which the food stamp program has now ballooned, that Jim tried to make the point by saying that Jesus fed five thousand people with five loaves of bread and two fish and "he didn’t charge food stamps."

The way he put it was to say, "When Jesus had those five loaves and two fishes, he didn't charge food stamps. He didn't ask anybody how much money they had. He fed them because they were hungry, and that's really where we ought to be," McDermott said in response to Republican critics of the SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program). Look, this moron can make all the religious analogies that he wants, but that does nothing to address what we all know is the real problem here.

I suppose what has old ‘Baghdad Jim’s’ panties in such a bunch, is the fact that it was this past September, that the House approved a plan by Republicans to cut $39 billion in food stamps over the next 10 years. In 2009, there were 33,489,975 people on food stamps. As of Nov. 8, 2013, a total of 47,666,124 people participated in the SNAP program. Wouldn’t you think that Jim’s bigger concern would be how it is that here in America we now have nearly 50 Million people who require food stamps?

Then, of course, we had the host of the show, everyone’s favorite faux preacher, ask ‘Baghdad Jim", "Congressman, what do your Republican congressman say to you when you tell them how much their policies are really hurting real people, real poor people?" To which Jim responded, "They really don't believe it, Rev. They're not listening to the pope. You and the pope run the same wavelength. The income equality is just going by most of these people." Income equality? Not sure what he means there.

Anyway, old Jimbo went on to say, and I’m assuming here that he was talking about the Republicans, that they should, perhaps, go to a food bank at a church or something and stand there and talk to the people. He said, "You would find out these are not people who are not trying. They're not people who want to be there. They're people who are ashamed in many instances to be doing something they never thought they’d be brought to, and they're having difficulty, and we're the richest nation in the world."

You know, the bottom line here, at least to my way of thinking, is that if there was more being done to actually get people back to work, instead of encouraging them to become addicted to the government, the need for food stamps would most likely be dramatically reduced. But then that would run counter to continuing Democrat efforts to get as many people as possible very firmly attached to the government teat. Because, you see, it’s with that increased dependence on government, that comes a very reliable means of control.

And I guess I found it as being very telling that ‘Baghdad Jim’ still felt quite comfortable in referring to our country as being the richest nation in the world. Because I would argue that that’s really no longer the case. Actually, with Barry as our president, we now owe more people more money than any other country on the entire planet. And because of the reckless fiscal policies that have been put forth, America’s credit rating was downgraded for the first time in our history. Someone should tell Jimbo that we are now officially, BROKE!

DEMOCRAT PARTY DRIFTING EVEN FURTHER TO THE LEFT…


There seems to be, if you can believe it, an even more liberal movement now emerging within the Democrat Party, and it’s one that views Barry, as well as the party's presumptive presidential front-runner Hitlery Clinton, as being, if you can believe this, excessively centrist. Ya know, somehow on those rare occasions when I can bring myself to even think about either of these two slimy characters, the word ‘centrist’ never enters my mind. What does come to mind are usually words like progressive, or socialist, or even communist. But never, centrist.

Now also, if you can believe this, there is now a far-left faction within the party that is, apparently, seriously looking into the possibility of making that leftwing loon, Elizabeth Warren, Democrat and senior senator from Massachusetts, its 2016 presidential standard-bearer. And the truly scary thing here is the fact that in a 2016 America, a president Warren really isn’t that far outside the realm of becoming a possibility. Because by then we may very well have passed that much talked about tipping point where the moochers outnumber the providers.

I’m assuming that such a cockamamie idea has now been floated, so to speak, because in contrast to Barry, Warren is in favor or increasing Social Security payments. In a recent Senate floor speech she said, "The absolute last thing we should do in 2013 – at the very moment that Social Security has become the principal lifeline for millions of our seniors, is to allow the program to begin to be dismantled inch by inch." Ms. Warren, obviously a leftwing dingbat, is very much of the opinion that we can simply continue to spend money that we just don’t have.

And in addition to opposing any, and all, budget deals that would involve in any way the cutting of Social Security ‘benefits’, this more liberal faction who would be quite happy with a president Warren, also favors stronger regulation of Wall Street; a $10.10-an-hour minimum wage, higher than the $9 favored by Barry; student loan debt relief; steps aimed at reducing economic inequality, and measures to protect workers from the aftershocks of globalization. There’s just no other way to describe these ludicrous positions than to call them what they are, total insanity.

Apparently those favoring a Warren candidacy, view Hitlery as being just a tad bit too close to Wall Street and to the devotees of Robert Rubin, who was ‘Slick Willie’s’ Treasury secretary. Some also complain that it has been Rubin's people who have been running economic policy under Barry. ‘Old Kooky’ Warren, a former Harvard law professor, has also called for big banks to be broken up. "Wall Street will fight us, but the American people are on our side," she told a union audience. Well, maybe those Americans who prefer living off the government.

While there are those who say that Democrats need to be cautious not to pull too far to the left, lest they be charged with being irresponsible over the national debt and not caring about economic growth, there may be no better time for them to make such a move. Because if Obamacare actually does collapse, as many are saying that it will, such an implosion might be enough to cause enough people to open there eyes when it comes to the leftist vision that brought it into reality. Also, policies that would further redistribute income would make many Americans uneasy.

I don’t know, I just don’t think many Americans get that concerned when politicians start talking about income redistribution. Unless of course, they’re one those whose income is being redistributed. Those on the receiving end certainly won’t be doing any complaining. But I’ll tell you what, Americans, and that would be all Americans, had better wake up, because whether it’s a ‘centrist’ like Hitlery or a ‘leftist’ like Warren who would end up getting elected, the outcome will be virtually the same. The death of what has been the most prosperous nation in the history of our planet.

CHRIS CHRISTIE, AKA “MR. TEAM PLAYER”…


Oh what a fool I was, because for the life of me I can’t quite figure out how it was that I could ever have been fooled into thinking that this guy was anything other than an ego on steroids. And one, I dare say, rivals that of Barry "Almighty." And it would seem that Chris Christie, by refusing to say he’ll support a possible GOP challenger to Gov. Andy Cuomo next year, has demonstrated, yet again, why he’s perceived by so many as being not much of a "team player." And by so doing he may have done some potential damage to his chances of becoming president, or so state and national GOP insiders have now implied.

"Christie already has a problem with many Republicans refusing to forgive him because of his embrace of [President] Obama and his socially liberal policies,’’ said someone described as being a nationally prominent GOP operative. And this nameless, faceless operative went on to say, "But this bizarre behavior in suggesting he won’t help a Republican defeat a Democratic governor, and a Cuomo no less, could finish off his chances of becoming his party’s nominee for president in 2016.’’ Personally, I would like nothing better than to see Christie perhaps be made to suffer from some additional self-inflicted wounds.

You see, apparently it was just last week that old Andy Cuomo claimed that Christie, who is now, strangely enough, the new head of the Republican Governors Association, an organization whose purpose is to elect GOP governors, had quickly called him to say The Post was wrong in reporting that the New Jersey governor was ready to back Westchester County Executive Rob Astorino, should he become the Republican nominee for governor next year. "I spoke to Gov. Christie this morning, who told me the exact opposite,’’ Andy contended in reference to last week’s "Inside Albany" column. Imagine that?

But, and was to be expected I dare say, Christie spokesmoron Colin Reed refused to confirm or deny Cuomo’s claim, referring questions to Christie political consultant and longtime GOP operative Mike DuHaime, who likewise refused to make any sort of comment, one way or the other. Meanwhile, some of those who are close to Astorino said they would be dumbfounded by Cuomo’s claim, since not only has Christie become responsible for trying to elect more GOP governors, he’s also, they say, had longstanding friendly relations with Astorino. But let’s keep in mind here that Christie, cares only about Christie.

Other Republicans, meanwhile, said they were somewhat surprised that Cuomo would disclose what presumably was a private personal phone call from Christie. "Cuomo has put Christie in a really difficult position,’’ said a prominent GOP operative. The Post’s report on Christie’s plan to back Astorino was based on sources close to Astorino who were familiar with an hourlong private meeting between Astorino and Christie held last month at the RGA’s annual meeting in Arizona. After it was published, the report was described as accurate by state GOP Chairman Ed Cox, who attended the RGA gathering.

Democratic insiders say that Andy and his little team of sleazy political aides are doing nothing more than what Democrats always do. They are now engaged in what has been described as being an all-out offensive in an attempt to pressure Astorino not to run for governor next year. "They’re trying to head off contributors to Astorino, spreading the word that he’s not going to run, trying to convince Republican money people that he doesn’t have a chance, and letting it be known that the governor won’t be happy with those who go with him,’’ said a source close to the state Democratic Committee.

According to recent polls, Andy would easily defeat Astorino if the election were held today, but of course it isn’t. But apparently Andy fears the popular county executive, who won a landslide re-election last month despite being a conservative in a county where Democrats outnumber Republicans 2-1, would be a strong enough vote-getter who, even in defeat, could damage Cuomo’s chances of being able to run for president. Not isn’t that a scary thought, a president Andy. Be hard to determine who would be worse, Andy or Christie. Either way it would be a disaster that would only compound the disaster of what will be then the last 8 years.

Frankly, it doesn’t take a genius to see that there is very little difference in many of the positions held by either of these two left-of-center guys. As we all know, Christie seems to have absolutely no problem with gay marriage, he favors some level of gun control and is a big supporter of the bogus theory of climate change. And while he seems to fancy himself a conservative, and loudly refers to himself as such at every opportunity, he’s really nothing more than someone who is of the RINO political persuasion. And haven’t we learned anything from having run a RINO in the last two presidential elections? Come on people, we can do better.

NOTHING IS 'EVER' OBAMA'S FAULT...


Have you ever noticed how it is with this pathetic liar, that he can never quite bring himself to take responsibility for anything?  It's ALWAYS someone else's fault.  And apparently it's the same when it comes to Obamacare.  It's the guys who were asked to provide no input, took no part in its drafting, and none of whom chose to vote for it, who are somehow the ones now to be blamed for its failure. Does that make sense?

MUST 2016 BE YET ANOTHER EXERCISE IN STUPIDITY?


Please, PLEASE, don’t tell me that we’re actually going to be stupid enough to actually make this bonehead, Chris Christie, our nominee. Haven’t we learned anything from the last two elections? Apparently not, if we can have a recent national poll that would seem to indicate that Christie is, at least at this point in time, deemed to be our early frontrunner. This is, if he were to decide to jump into the race, for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination. Am I the only here who sees this as being nothing short of completely insane?

And ya know, we Republican are not the only ones who seem to have lost out minds. Democrats are proving themselves to be as f*cked up as we Republicans, because these morons would actually favor ‘Slow Joe’ Biden, if that old battle-axe, Hitlery Clinton, decides against making yet another run for the White House. Man I gotta tell ya, our country could not be more screwed up if the best that the American people can do is to consider any of these misfits as being acceptable candidates, worthy of being our president.

So it is then that, according to a recent poll, twenty-four percent of Republicans and independents who took part in this poll said they would support Christie, and that’s up seven percentage points from a CNN poll taken in September. Back then, it was Christie and Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, the House Budget chairman and the 2012 Republican vice presidential nominee, who were virtually tied, with Christie at 17 percent and Ryan at 16 percent. But both of these dweebs are RINOs, and a RINOs can’t win!

But since then our buddy Ryan has since dropped to 11 percent and now comes in behind Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, at 13 percent. Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas garnered 10 percent in the survey, followed by Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida at 9 percent, Texas Gov. Rick Perry at 7 percent, and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and former Sen. Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania, each at 6 percent. Personally, I could very easily support just about anyone in this group, except maybe Bush, over Christie. Haven’t we really had enough Bushes?

And what I’m quite sure is something that comes as no surprise in the fact that the poll indicates that Hitlery would easily be the overwhelming frontrunner in the race for the Democratic nomination, with 63 percent of Democrats and independents who lean towards the Democratic Party saying she would be their choice. ‘Slow Joe’ was a distant second at 12 percent, followed by Sen. Elizabeth Warren (7 percent), Gov. Andrew Cuomo (5 percent), and two-term Gov. Martin O'Malley (2 percent). Now ain’t that a stellar little group?

Come on people, can’t we please do better than this? Can’t we at least, just this one time, bring ourselves to think about our country first? It would seem that, at least in recent years, the election of a president has been reduced to being nothing more than some weird kind of popularity contest. And where, exactly, has ‘that’ gotten us? Nowhere, but right in the crapper, that’s where. If clowns like these are really the best we can up with, then why even bother? Maybe we should just put America out of her misery.

Because when 2016 finally rolls around, and it’ll be here before you know it, does anyone seriously think that a Christie or a Hitlery or, God forbid, a Biden will actually be up to the challenge of governing whatever’s it is that will be left of our once proud and prosperous nation after eight years of Barry "Almighty"? Think about it, is a country that’s broke, not only financially, but spiritually and morally, as well as economically, really the legacy that we want to leave to our kids? I pray to God that we will come to our senses.

AS TO BE EXPECTED, AMERICANS BECOMING MORE PESSIMISTIC…


Look, in looking at our own lives, I really don’t think that we needed yet another poll to tell what I think most of us already knew, that a majority of Americans are becoming much more pessimistic about the state of our nation. But apparently someone did because it’s according to a recent poll we find that over half of the American people are now of the opinion that conditions in our country are only getting worse. And that would be, like I said, according to a yet another poll, with this one being conducted by CNN/ORC International poll and with results being released just today, of all days, the day after Thanksgiving.

This recent survey consisted of 843, we assume to be, adults, and it revealed that only 41 percent of Americans actually believe that things are going well. Meanwhile, there are 59 percent of us who now think that things are going rather badly, and are likely to get even worse before they improve, if they ever improve. Opinions, of course, vary with political affiliation, as well as between younger and older people. Because according to this poll it was 46 percent of those under age 50 who said things are going pretty well, while only 36 percent for those 50 and older seemed to think that the country is headed in the right direction.

And it would also seem that a majority of Americans also continue to be rather pessimistic about the economy. Thirty-nine percent believe the economy is still declining, and just 24 percent who believe that a recovery is actually occurring. Meanwhile, 36 percent said they do not believe there is a recovery going on, but still think conditions are becoming stable. No offense to any of those who can somehow come to the conclusion that there is an actual recovery going on, but just how stupid, or blind, can people be. Of course, now, the only thing that could be of any importance to many of them is the fact that Barry is black.

I’ve always tried to think of myself as being one of those ‘the glass-is-half-full’ kind of guys, but in this era of Barry "Almighty" it is become exceedingly more difficult to do so. I mean, let’s face it. We now have 11 Million fewer people in the nation’s workforce than we did when Barry first took office, nearly 50 Million Americans now on food stamps, Millions more on disability and at least 100 Million of our fellow citizens now receiving some form of government assistance. It’s a little difficult to remains optimistic in the face of all that Barry and his fellow Democrats have committed against this this country.

Add to that the wholesale destruction of the best healthcare system on the planet, again an act committed by Democrats, and it would seem that Americans don’t really have all that much to look forward to anymore. You know, parents used to be able feel comfortable in the knowledge that they would be leaving to their children a nation that was better than the one that they grew up in. But for most of us that’s simply no longer the case. The America I will leave behind for my daughter is a far cry from the same America I enjoyed when I was her age. If the last 5 years have shown us anything, it’s that ‘change’ is not always good.

I think it fair to say that "Hope and Change" ranks right up there with such things as "new and improved." How many of you have purchased a product, one that you have been purchasing for years, that now proudly proclaims itself to be new and improved, only to find out that while the packaging may be new, the product itself most certainly has not been improved. And along with that pronouncement, of course, also comes a much higher price. That is essentially what we got from Barry. His promise to "fundamentally transform" this country and only resulted in things being made very much worse, while coming at a much higher price. One that he demands be paid by we the American taxpayer.

UNITED SOCIALIST STATES OF AMERICAN...

As you can very plainly see, Barry "Almighty" is but the most recent Democrat president, on what is a long list of many, who has been quite determined in his efforts to work very diligently on the destruction of America as it was created by our Founding Fathers.

OBAMACARE HURTS FAR MORE THAN IT HELPS…


As we all remember, much was, and continues to be, talked about how Obamacare was going to be helping millions of Americans when it came to being able to spend less and to have far more options when seeking healthcare coverage. And that, which most of us were able to recognize at the time as being nothing but pure political bullshit, has turned out to be pretty much just what we thought it was back then.

And so now, at least according to a new poll released by Gallup, the percentage of Americans who now say that Obamacare has either hurt them and their family or has had no effect on them, outnumbers those who say it has helped them, by a margin of approximately 10 to 1. And I am quite confident that those numbers will continue to become even worse as this thing is allowed to continue on into the new year.

On Nov. 23-24, Gallup asked 1,034 adults the following question: "As you may know, a few of the provisions of the healthcare law have already gone into effect. So far, has the new law helped you and your family, not had an effect, or has it hurt you and your family? Only 9 percent said that Obamacare had actually helped them and their family. So what, if anything, has really been accomplished here? Ah, not much!

Because at the same time we also have 19 percent who have said that it has hurt them and their family while another 69 percent said that it had had no effect, yet, on them and their family. That combined 88 percent who said it either hurt them and their family or had no effect on them and their family represented 9.7 times as many people as the 9 percent who said it had, in any way, helped them and their family.

The truth is, that we, the American people have been royally screwed, because there is absolutely nothing about Obamacare that was actually designed to help anybody. Anybody, that is, but the Democrat Party. The sole purpose behind the creation of this bureaucratic nightmare was to come up with a way that would deliver to the government sole propriety over the ability of the American to gain access to adequate healthcare .

I mean, think about it. When whom you vote for may very well end up having an impact on the type of healthcare that you will be able to obtain for, say, a sick child. Wouldn’t that have a tendency to influence you when walking into a voting booth? And it’s that that’s behind what the Democrats are trying to do here. They want to be able to manipulate you, they want to be able to nudge you in what they see as being, the ‘proper’ direction.
