Cleaver: If Obama wasn't president, we would be ‘marching on the White House’ By Alicia M. Cohn - 09/18/11 03:48 PM ET
Unhappy members of the Congressional Black Caucus “probably would be marching on the White House” if Obama were not president, according to CBC Chairman Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-Mo.).
"If [former President] Bill Clinton had been in the White House and had failed to address this problem, we probably would be marching on the White House," Cleaver told “The Miami Herald” in comments published Sunday.
"There is a less-volatile reaction in the CBC because nobody wants to do anything that would empower the people who hate the president."

Elite team of 5 assigned to seek truth on Obama (Arpaio "Cold Case" posse):
Arizona's Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio told WND he has assigned a five-member "Cold Case Posse" to investigate the authenticity of Barack Obama's birth certificate.
Arpaio explained to WND that there are over 3,000 people who participate in his office's volunteer posse program.
Arpaio explained to WND that in the final analysis, all decisions stop with him.
"I will have the ultimate authority to decide," he emphasized. "I gave the Cold Case Posse the authority to investigate, but the results of their investigation ultimately come to me and I will then decide how best to proceed from there."
Those wishing to contribute to the 501(c)3 supporting the Cold Case Posse investigation of the Obama birth certificate are asked to send contributions addressed to the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office at: MCSO Cold Case Posse, P.O. Box 74374, Phoenix, Ariz., 85087.

Gunny G's Marines History and Traditions: Book Review:
O'Hara's Choice, by Leon Uris...:
Addendum...
Reviewers have noted that Uris has taken liberty in his last book with certain historic facts; one liberty taken, but not as yet noted--that I have seen--is his use of the rank of MGySgt, which did not yet exist during the time frame of the book.
The Rank of Gunnery Sergeant came into existence in the Marine Corps in 1898, (officially in 1900), and it was not until 1934-37 that the grade of MGySgt was added.
The MGySgt disappeared from the Marine Corps rank structure, as did the rank of GySgt, (and many other enlisted ranks) in 1946, not to reappear again until another rank structure change in 1959.

The shreding of the Constitution
The shreding of the Constitution:
KNIGHT: Obama tears up the Constitution The scope of his lawless disregard expands by the day The Constitution of the United States, whose adoption we celebrate every Sept. 17, clearly lists the powers of each branch of the national government. Let’s take a look at what Barack Obama, like any president, is empowered to do and see if it squares with his actions. In Article II, Section 1, he is sworn to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”
Section 2 names the president as commander in chief of the armed forces, grants him the power to make treaties with the advice and consent of the Senate and to appoint ambassadors, federal judges, Cabinet officials and other federal officers. Section 3 says the president “shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed.”
In his two years and nine months in office, President Obama has compiled a spectacular record of noncompliance with the Constitution. Here are just some of the ways his administration has failed to execute the laws while using raw, unauthorized power.... http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2011/sep/16/obama-tears-up-the-constitution/

Jose v. Joe
Jose v. Joe:
Interesting when you work the numbers.
You have two families: "Joe Legal" and "Jose Illegal". Both families have
two parents, two children, and live in California .
Joe Legal works in construction, has a Social Security Number and makes $25.00 per hour with taxes deducted.
Jose Illegal also works in construction, has NO Social Security Number, and gets paid $15.00 cash "under the table".
Ready? Now pay attention...
Joe Legal: $25.00 per hour x 40 hours = $1000.00 per week, or $52,000.00 per year.
Now take 30% away for state and federal tax; Joe Legal now has $31,231.00.
Jose Illegal: $15.00 per hour x 40 hours = $600.00 per week, or $31,200.0 0 per year. Jose Illegal pays no taxes. Jose Illegal now has $31,200.00.....................

Karl Marx never counted on the Internet:
Though many sides use the openness of the Internet; it is becoming more effective for the conservative view, because the Internet circumvents the main stream media.
Now a single blogger can take a major politician down.
Now one stupid comment that would have never see the light of day is on Youtube 5 minutes after it was uttered.
The conservative message is being read, watched and listen to by millions more every year, people seek their news, it is no longer spoon fed to them......................

Cloward-Piven: The Ultimate Goal of Gunwalker?:
It's hard to think of a more logical reason for Gunwalker to exist.
PJMedia reader “eon” posted an insightful comment in response to my September 15 article on the Gunwalker scandal:
To the best of my knowledge, no previous U.S. administration has ever destabilized the government of a putatively friendly foreign power purely for domestic political gain.
The closest you can get would be the revolutionary movement in what is now Panama, that the U.S. nurtured to gain that area’s independence (from Nicaragua) — to facilitate building the Panama Canal. But that was a pre-existing revolutionary movement with pre-existing complaints against the Nicaraguan government that did not include stopping them from selling illegal drugs.

Newsmax was early in identifying Soros as a political force, featuring him on the cover of our May 2004 magazine with the headline “George Soros’ Coup.” Our cover story detailed Soros’ influence in Eastern Europe, supporting emerging democracies after the fall of the Iron Curtain through his Open Society Foundations.

The Cloward-Piven Strategy of Manufactured Crisis [Obama's strategy for destroying the economy]: Liberals self-righteously wrap themselves in the mantle of public spirit. They ardently promote policies promising to deliver the poor and oppressed from their latest misery — policies which can only find solution in the halls of government. But no matter what issue one examines, over the last fifty plus years, the liberal prescription has almost always been a failure.
Why is this so? Why does virtually every liberal scheme result in ever-increasing public spending while conditions seem to get continually worse? There are a number of reasons:.............

Former Senator Rick Santorum does not deserve to be President and should immediately withdraw from the Republican primary race.
He is either too dumb to serve or too dishonest.
In response to a question about Barack Obama’s eligibility to be President, Santorum said:
“My understanding is that issue was solved. If there’s evidence to the contrary [showing Obama is not eligible], they should bring it forth.”
Perhaps Santorum should indeed look at the mountain of evidence implicating Obama as a usurper and felon.

Is America Hopelessly Self-Absorbed?| The Post & Email:
FROM THE PARALLAX PROPHECIES
by Ron Ewart, �2011
(Sep. 18, 2011) — Summer is essentially over and the barbeques, beer and block parties are winding down, as people get back in the groove for school and prepare themselves mentally for the eventual cooling of fall and the bitterness of a harsh winter.
The informality of the warmer weather falls away and is replaced with pressed suits, starched shirts, conservative ties, high heels and business dresses. A self-absorbed America is humming along as it usually does, somewhat oblivious to the man-made hurricane that is hovering just over the horizon and threatening to come ashore.
Meanwhile, the poor put on warmer clothes to head for the welfare office where Obama’s stash is sitting there in vaults to be doled out to those who have lost their personal pride, self-reliance and claim no responsibility for their actions or consider themselves victims of discrimination or some societal-inflicted injustice of one kind or another..............

Gunny G's Marines History and Traditions: Who Coined The Phrase "Bug Out"?
Gunny G's Marines History and Traditions: Who Coined The Phrase "Bug Out"?:
From the book, A Fellowship Of Valor, by Col Joseph H. Alexander, USMC Ret, 1997, Harper Collins, we learn the following regarding the flag raising in Seoul, Korea on 27 Spetember, 1950...
"An envious Army officer from Almond's staff chided Chesty Puller:
'Ever since that flag-raising picture on Iwo Jima got published, I'm convinced you Marines would rather carry a flag into battle than a weapon.' Puller regarded the man icily, 'Not a bad idea,' he growled, 'a man with a flag in his pack and the desire to run it up on an enemy position isn't likely to bug out!'"

Since scandal has outrun incompetence in the Obama administration the last two weeks, even fewer liberals are anxious to defend their man in the White House. There’s been talk of a super committee, so called, of elder Democrats trying to talk Obama out of running for a second-term.
The question is: Are the Democrats trying to oust Obama? And if so, will Obama find a fall guy to take his place on the chopping block?
Liberal strategist James Carville has suggested that Obama find someone to indict. Never mind whether the person is actually guilty of a crime.
So the Mighty One has fallen a bit, but hasn’t fallen enough yet to take his place with the rest of us mere mortals bound by laws...............

It's just that people are just now realizing it because the changes are far more dramatic and more in your face now then ever before, like with the frog in the pot analogy, the water is beginning to boil and all the frogs are gettin jumppy!!!!!................

Barack Obama, Flim-Flam Man
Barack Obama, Flim-Flam Man:
Former federal prosecutor Andrew McCarthy has an important column in which he argues that the Solyndra fiasco is not just a garden-variety scandal, but a criminal fraud that should land someone, inside and/or outside of the Obama administration, in the slammer.
The facts are very bad. Solyndra was a money-loser from beginning to end. Its business model was untenable. The Bush administration turned it down for funding. Its owners wanted to do a public offering; for that purpose, they had to have their books audited and a report written by PriceWaterhouseCoopers. The report was more or less an obituary for the company:
[O]utside auditors from PricewaterhouseCoopers (PWC) found that condition to be dire. “The company has suffered recurring losses from operations, negative cash flows since inception, and has a net stockholders’ deficit,” the PWC accountants concluded. Even with the gigantic Obama loan, Solyndra was such a basket case that PWC found “substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.”

Obama to propose "Buffett Tax" on millionaires (on Mon)
Obama to propose "Buffett Tax" on millionaires (on Mon):
Populist gesture designed to appeal to his base
President Barack Obama, in a populist step designed to appeal to voters, will propose a "Buffett Tax" on people making more than $1 million a year as part of his deficit recommendations to Congress on Monday.
Such a proposal, among suggestions to a congressional supercommittee expected to seek up to $3 trillion in deficit savings over 10 years, would appeal to his Democratic base ahead of the 2012 election but likely not raise much in revenues............

Did Obama’s former investment play role in pressuring 4-star general to change testimony?
Did Obama’s former investment play role in pressuring 4-star general to change testimony?:
Presidents put their investments into blind trusts when they take office in order to avoid the appearance of conflicts of interest. Well, most modern Presidents do, anyway. It seems that Obama considers himself an exception to this rule, or at the very least he did until April 2010. The Washington Post’s Michael Shear reported at that time that Obama had refused to establish a blind trust . . . snip
. . . The records are not on line, but the White House website does have a request page, which promises to send a PDF of the financial disclosure forms quickly. I’ve requested a copy and will check to see whether Obama still holds any position with LightSquared. I’m going to guess no, only because it appears from Shear’s article that Obama converted most of his holdings into bonds in order to avoid the blind trust.
However, as the HuffPo report notes, that’s not the only problem in this scenario. It’s clear that even if Obama divested himself of LightSquared at some point, he has remained close to the other investors. If the White House pressured Shelton in order to benefit these investors, then we need to find out whether Obama gave that order himself on behalf of his cronies.

Why Obama should withdraw
Why Obama should withdraw: When Ronald Reagan ran for re-election in 1984, his slogan was "Morning in America." For Barack Obama, it's more like midnight in a coal mine.
The sputtering economy is about to stall out, unemployment is high, his jobs program may not pass, foreclosures are rampant and the poor guy can't even sneak a cigarette................

His approval rating is at its lowest level ever. His party just lost two House elections — one in a district it had held for 88 consecutive years. He's staked his future on the jobs bill, which most Americans don't think would work.
The vultures are starting to circle. Former White House spokesman Bill Burton said that unless Obama can rally the Democratic base, which is disillusioned with him, "it's going to be impossible for the president to win." Democratic consultant James Carville had one word of advice for Obama: "Panic."

It's Another "Us" Crisis
It's Another "Us" Crisis: “We can’t just leave it up to the parents," Michelle Obama
We live in a golden age. A wondrous era where the government compels us to buy health insurance, whether we need it or not. And whether we want to or not. Where the First Lady is no longer in charge of the White House's meals, but of our meals. Where wise and generous czars in the nation's capital ponder day and night how to stop the flow of free information that's rotting our minds and filling our heads with critical thoughts about the government.
Previous generations had to do it the hard way. They had to buy a home, find a job, marry and have children-- without anyone from the government coming to their doorstep to tell them how to do it all. Few of our nation's youth born in this golden time can believe what savages we once were. How can they comprehend an America in which anyone could walk into a store and leave with a package of lawn darts a few minutes later? An America where people had to decide for themselves what to order in a restaurant that could sell any type of food at all regardless of its salt and calorie content. A maddening chaotic society in which ordinary citizens could place items on the ballot and they would become state laws. And all the states had different laws. Think of it.....................
