BARACK OBAMA WORSE THAN JIMMY CARTER

Former VP Dick Cheney sums up Obama and his Presidency in an interview with ABC News. Cheney absolutely hit this one out of the park as he describes the inept administration of Barack Obama. He states his disagreements with Obama, as he states it MORE than any other Democrat President and when asked if he thought Obama was worse than Jimmy Carter, ( imagine and ABC reporter actually calling suggesting Carter was a bad President), Cheney agreed that Obama is WORSE than Jimmy Carter and to this I heartily agree!

THE GREAT OBAMA TAX LIE

The American public has been systematically lied to almost from the beginning of the supposed, "transparent," regime of Barack Obama.  Obama and his cronies in the Congress and surrogates who support his policy and tell his tale have been lying to the American people about taxes and that lie not only continues but is being compounded now that the Supreme Court has ruled that Obamacare is actually a tax, still being denied as such in public by Obama and Democrats.

The state of Obamacare has been the longest running tax lie perpetrated by Obama and clan during his administration. Throughout the build for Obamacare before hastened passage by the Pelosi run House of Representatives and rammed through the Senate by Harry Reid virtually blocking out any Republican debate and not allowing anyone to even view the health care debacle before it was voted on the idea that it was a tax was denied at every turn. Remember Pelosi's comment during a press conference, " we have to pass the bill so you can find out what is in it."

Hidden within the bill were plans and enforcement procedures that could only be deemed as the bill being a massive tax increase on the American public with the IRS being the enforcement agency for the law.  Of course Obama and clan lied to the public denying it was any type of tax and kept that deception up even when going into the public debate before the Supreme Court.

In order to continue their tax lie about Obamacare during the public hearings before the court in which Obama's Solicitor General Donald Verrilli argued repeatedly that Obamacare WAS NOT a tax the truth was hidden to the point of Verrilli being laughed at during court proceedings as he continually contradicted himself when questioned about it being a tax. But when the brief was presented to the court for its consideration AFTER public hearings were completed not only did they admit it was a tax but used the tax argument as it main defense of the law in order to get it past the court.

The Obama administration knew from the beginning that Obamacare was a tax and that its claim it would meet Constitutional muster under the Commerce Clause would not stand so it lied to the public but told the truth to the Court in private briefings in order to bring about the eventual controversial ruling by the Court that Obamacare was unconstitutional under the Commerce Clause but could stand as a tax.  Then immediately after the court ruling Obama was the first to hit the airways once again denying the law was a tax.

Now Obama's tax lie is pushing what is being called a, "fiscal cliff," facing Americans in January 2013 when the Bush era tax rates are set to expire.  Yes, they are tax RATES, not tax cuts as being claimed again by Obama and his cronies. If allowed to expire the loss of the rates would INCREASE taxes by more than 30% for all Americans.  A situation that would take a bad economy with virtually no growth and send it spiraling downward dramatically, thus a, "fiscal cliff."

Last week the Harry Reid Senate passed a bill to end the Bush era rates, rates that have been in affect since 2001, for all Americans who make over $250,000 a year. Which of course raises taxes for nearly EVERY small business in America since small business owners in order to take advantage of tax breaks do not separate their personal income from their business income.  Reid then went before the cameras touting the, "fairness," of the bill and that it would, "cut taxes," to 98% of all Americans.

First the Senate cannot Constitutionally make a revenue bill since all revenue bills must start in the House so this debacle was a publicity stunt and will not pass the House.  But it continues to perpetrate the Obama lie about taxes as Obama used it to campaign around the country that Republicans were obstructing his tax cut plan for Americans.

Now I ask you, how can a tax rate that has been in affect for 11 years being renewed be a tax cut?  Extending the Bush era rates does not cut taxes but only continues rates that Americans have ALREADY been paying. But according to Obama and clan they are tax cuts for Middle Class America.  Additionally the lie that those making $250,000 or more are the, "rich," who must be forced by Obama and clan to pay their, "fair share," is nothing more than class warfare at its worst.  I guarantee the small business owner who works 18 hours a day to make ends meet and tries to make a small profit for his business would argue that he is NOT rich but according to Obama and clan he is.

This tax lie has been going on for nearly four years with Obama taking the lead in pushing the lie and now he has made it a center piece of his reelection bid. A bid that is based on tax increases for small business, a health care law that if allowed to be completely implemented would be the largest tax increase in world history and a continual class warfare designed to anger his liberal base and demonize the very individuals who create jobs and pay most of the taxes in America. This is Obama's idea of fair and his idea of a plan for his dream of a socialistic America.

ODE TO BARACK OBAMA, "THE LAZY AMERICAN DREAM"

Country singer Troy Cook Jr. shares this tune written by Don Bradley that is an Ode to Barack Obama and the Presidency of government dependency that he has perpetrated over the last nearly four years. Welfare roles have skyrocketed, unemployment remains above 8%, almost half of the country receives some sort of government check every month. The poverty rate has digressed to the days of LBJ.

Yet with all of this Obama continues to lie to the American people by stating that his policies have worked and The American Dream is only possible though his socialistic policies. He does not nor ever has understood The American Dream. That dream is to be free of government and prosper according to ones abilities and working to make a better life for ourselves and our families. Obama's, "American Dream," is a welfare state where all Americans are slaves to the federal government.

Do you hear that noise? The noise is George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, the signers of The Declaration of Independence, James Madison and the others who worked to create our Constitution and yes, Ronald Reagan all rolling over in their graves at Obama's, "Lazy American Dream.

COLORADO SHOOTING VICTIMS TREATED TO A CLASS ACT

Without media fanfare or even advanced notice Christian Bale the star of the new Batman movie, "The Dark Knight Rises," arrived in Aurora, Colorado and visited with the victims, families and friends of the tragic shooting at a local theater during last weeks midnight premier of his movie.

 During a time when most see Hollywood as a group of elite actors who could care less about the public who make them famous, Bale has shown that not only is he a class act but there are some in Hollywood who still care about life outside of the glitz and pomp of Hollywood.

Bale arrived in Aurora unannounced and without any press following him to visit with those whose lives were affected by the tragedy last week. The press didn't get wind of his visit until they followed up on what they thought were just rumors that Bale was in town and discovered that the rumors were true. He gave no interviews and did not pose for any pictures with the press but only with those he came to visit for their personal remembrance of his visit.

Bale also visited a make shift memorial near the theater where the shooting took place last week and met with those who were visiting the sight as well a posed for pictures with family and friends of the victims. Bale has not been near the top of my list of favorite actors, in fact while watching all of the Batman movies and his Academy Award winning performance in, "The Fighter," Bale has been an actor I could take or leave. After his actions in Aurora he has now shot to the top of my list of respected actors and a truly class act.

OBAMA CAMPAIGN MONEY WOES

The campaign for the reelection of Barack Obama officially went into debt during the month of June as it spent more money than it took in. Obama has spent more than $53million dollars in negative ads trying to destroy the reputation of Mitt Romney in swing states like Ohio and North Carolina and has NOTHING to show for it.

His strategy to destroy Romney's reputation with negative ads that contain false information about Romney's dealings with Bain Capital and his overseas holdings have not succeeded and in fact Obama's approval numbers have gone down as this massive ad campaign has been slamming the airwaves with negative after negative and falsehood after falsehood.

National polls have moved toward Romney while the swing states that Obama has been targeting have made dramatic moves away from Obama and toward Romney. North Carolina has had a major shift from Obama leading by 10 points to Romney now leading by 9. Pennsylvania that had a 6 point lead for Obama now shows Romney up by 5.  Ohio had Obama with a 6 point lead now shows a dead heat between the two candidates.

While Obama has been going in the hole financially the Romney campaign is continuing to spend less and out raise the Obama campaign. Obama's spending has more than doubled Romney's while Romney is raising almost doubling Obama's campaign donations. Both of which are not good news for Obama and are a clear indication of a struggling campaign that has no momentum and losing support.

The lack of donations, falling poll numbers, major shifts in swing states and the bad economy along with continued high unemployment all lead to a conclusion that November is a major uphill struggle for Obama to win reelection. While nothing can be taken for granted the signs do point toward an Obama loss on November 6, 2012.

COLORADO SHOOTING, THE BLAME GAME

Almost from the moment the actions of the crazed maniac who planned and perpetrated the terrible events surrounding the cold blooded murder of at least 12 innocent people and wounding dozens more in Aurora, Colorado last week took place, there has been a continual barrage of commentary, news reports and just plain ridiculous, "speculation," as to who and/or what is to blame for this unthinkable and senseless tragedy.

The Tea Party was at least momentarily blamed by ABC News then retracted when the news agency actually investigated the facts surrounding the name they dug up from Colorado Tea Party memberships.  Blame was placed on a supposed association with the Occupy movement which also was debunked after someone actually spent the time to investigate.

Then there are the many gun control advocates who are still trying to blame the weapons for the shooting and calling for more gun control measures.  For those I have news for you, if there had been 10,000 more gun control laws on the books a sick twisted mind like that of this crazed lunatic would have still found a way to acquire what he needed to kill and nothing would have changed with more laws except law abiding citizens having even more of their Second Amendment right infringed upon.

Commentary after commentary has tried to blame movies as the source even to the point of claiming, "The Dark Night Rises," and the DC Batman franchise were to blame for this lunatics actions. Again I have news for those who seek to blame the movies. Literally MILLIONS of sane people watch movies daily and none of them have been influenced by ANY movie to kill people nor perform any other type of violence against their fellow man. Movies have been around since the beginning of the last Century and billions of people have enjoyed the entertainment and delight of a night at the movies and the actions of one crazed lunatic cannot be blamed on movies. Also the maniac could have just as easily chosen a shopping mall to attack, so would it have been the fault of J.C. Penney had he walked in and killed in that Department Store?

Next those great intellectuals who have tried to blame society for the actions of one lone lunatic. So in their supposedly, "learned," minds society was the blame for Jack the Ripper, Ted Bundy, Jim Jones and the mass murder that took place from his twisted mind in Guyana when he perpetrated the mass suicide of his followers.  Society is no more the blame for what happened in Colorado than it is for other killings that take place by the actions of twisted individuals who no longer have any moral conscience or sanity to control their actions in a civilized and sane manner.

Evil exists in this world and that is the only explanation that can be placed when something as senseless and unthinkable as the deaths of so many and the wounding of so many more in a movie theater takes place as it did last week.  The blame belongs directly to and ONLY to the sick twisted maniac who planned this massacre for months and then pulled the trigger killing innocent people who did nothing more that gather with friends and family for a time of relaxation and entertainment taking advantage of the very same freedom to do so that has existed in our country from our birth.  He and he alone is the blame for the tragedy and he and he alone deserves the punishment for the results of his crazed maniacal actions.

Ken Taylor

COLORADO SHOOTING TRAGEDY

Our hearts and prayers go out to the victims and the families of the tragic senseless shooting at the Aurora, Colorado movie theater during the midnight showing of, "The Dark Night Rises, " the latest Batman motion picture.  12 are dead and 59 wounded from a crazed sick individual who perpetrated this terrible tragedy.

This hits home to me in more ways than I can describe as I am part of the Management team at a local theater and heard of the shooting on my way home after our midnight showing of the movie. I literally stopped in the middle of the road in shock as I listened on the radio of the tragedy in Colorado.

Already the media and others are trying to politicize this nightmare with some claiming then retracting that the shooter was a member of the Tea Party and others already calling for gun control laws as is always the case after a tragic shooting. This is not a situation for anyone from either the right or the left to gain any political brownie points over the senseless deaths of innocent Americans who were doing nothing more than enjoying an evenings entertainment with family and friends.

There is no political motive or any other agenda but a crazed murderous lunatic who has taken the lives of innocents and wounded dozens more in an act of rampaging stupidity and a lack of moral conscience.  It is not a time to seek blame to any ideology or political agenda but to remember the victims their friends and families who must cope with the senseless killing of those they loved.

God bless the victims, God bless the survivors and may He comfort and keep them in this time of grief and coping with the unthinkable.

ROMNEY FINALLY FIGHTING BACK

Mitt Romney is finally starting to fight.  It took Obama making the completely asinine statement about how the millions of Americans who own businesses didn't actually  make the business but somebody else did it for them.

Maybe this one statement of stupidity by Obama was the catalyst that got under Romney's skin but he is finally coming out with the gloves off. While not yet having his Rocky Balboa moment at least he is no longer whining about apologies and calling Obama on his ideas and policy as well as telling Americans that Obama is anti business and is destructive to America.

The picture above is from Romney's official campaign website and the following is quoted from the caption for the picture. "This week, President Obama said: "If you've got a business, you didn't build that. Somebody else made that happen. Clearly, this President doesn’t understand how our economy works. Mitt Romney knows from experience that the government doesn’t create successful businesses -- hard working individuals do."


His campaign ads and his speeches are finally hitting hard at the failure of Obama and his use of payola politics with tax payer dollars and out sourcing American jobs over seas to fulfill his leftist agenda as evidenced in the campaign ad below.




While a good start Romney needs to completely take the gloves off and use hard hitting truths about Obama including his past and his questionable activities. Democrats are whining about Romney's tax returns. Why then shouldn't Republicans demand Obama to release ALL of his hidden information about that gives him such a questionable past since everything seems to have either disappeared or is treated as top secret national security items.

Obama knows that he has no record to stand on and in the Fall the economy will be worse than it is now as predicted by even his own Fed Chief.  He is trying to use the Summer months to destroy Romney's reputation with false accusations and complete lies about his business practices. The ONLY way Romney can combat this it by NOT falling into the defensive trap but continue with hard hitting facts about Obama and his absolute failure as President.

As James Carville said during the Clinton years and recently in an appearance on CNN, "it's the economy stupid." All of Obama's rhetoric is nothing more than smoke and mirrors to redirect the campaign from his miserable record and his miserable economy to petty lies and accusation that can dominate the news. Romney cannot fall into Obama's trap and MUST continue to hammer home the economy and the destruction of Barack Obama. That will over come the lies and accusations and keep the message of restoring America all the way to November.

BARACK OBAMA INSULTS BUSINESS OWNERS

Barack Obama has revealed his true beliefs and shown his ass....ahh I mean his idiocy by the statement found to the left, (appropriate that it is found , "left," in the posting), which wreaks of his idea that government is the answer, means and solution to his socialistic, "utopia," where everyone is a mind numb zombie that bows to government and owes their very existence to government. 

The very idea that every business owner who sacrifices their time, money, personal initiative and drive, risking everything to make and run a successful business owes its existence to government and what they sacrificed had NOTHING to do with the success and building of that business is not just ridiculous but a disgusting display of an idiot who has never had a job other than political nor worked a business a day in his life

The gall in stating that anyone who has developed a business through hard work and sacrifice, "didn't build that, somebody else made it happen," shows his absolute ignorance and is an insult to every entrepreneur that has ever made a business work from the infancy of our Republic. This raving lunatic went on to say that it is because of those who built, "roads and bridges," that a business exists and of course that to him means government.

Well Mr. Obama let me tell you the facts. Private business has existed in America long before government built roads and bridges. Additionally where does the money come from to build those roads and bridges? The private business owners who have busted their behinds 18 hours a day to make a success of their business and pay the taxes that built those roads and bridges.

I owned a small business in the eighties and it was my hard work, my initiative and the loyalty and work of my employees that made the business a success. I negotiated with other businesses to trade my services for goods that I used as benefits for my employees. I negotiated the contracts that paid for the services my business provided. The only thing government had to do with my business was to collect taxes which went down during the eighties thanks to the policies of Ronald Reagan.

The reality of the association of government and business is that burdensome regulation actually hurts business not make them possible as Obama believes. This one statement by the idiot in chief expresses in a nutshell why this plague must be voted out of office and sent into historical oblivion where he belongs. He does not understand the American dream. He is anti business and rejects the idea that Americans are exceptional because of our individualism and the freedom protected by our Constitution.

November cannot come soon enough to rid America of the Obama virus and come January to remove it forever from Washington DC and the political arena where maniacal ideas like this will no longer work to destroy our beloved country and force our free people into slavery to an overbearing government.

MITT ROMNEY WAKE UP AND FIGHT

During the primaries I had one concern, (actually many concerns), about Mitt Romney that unfortunately seems to be taking place and it is NOT a good sign. I feared that if Romney got the nod he would pull a McCain and play the, "gentleman's," game when going head to head with Obama attempting to show respect for the Presidency and forgetting he was running against a ruthless political animal who has no scruples and will play any card or trick, tell any lie and cut any throat to keep power and stay in office.

I did not support Romney through the primaries for a number of reasons and this weakness for a head to head fight was one of them. As he went after Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum in an almost relentless fashion my question was, "would he do the same against Obama?"  Thus far he has not and especially in the last week when Obama has come out with false charges, accusations and out and out lies about Romney all Romney can do is go on the defensive during the Sunday talking head shows and repeatedly whine for Obama to apologize.

The only thing Obama is ever willing to apologize for is America and our exceptionalism, in every other aspect of his life and his Presidency he is willing to stoop to any means available to deceive the American people and destroy this country. Romney rather than hitting the liar right between the eyes with his failed record and calling him on not only the lies about his policy and his record only whines about an apology for accusations made against him and says it's, "beneath the Presidency."

While it may be beneath the Presidency it is NOT beneath Obama and Romney needs to wake up, quit whining and fight like there is no tomorrow. This game that both he and four years ago McCain play to show, "respect," for Obama and now since he is President unwilling to get down and dirty with a dirty politician because he happens to be President spells doom for November.

Obama is ruthless and he has absolutely no scruples whatsoever and will lie, cheat, accuse falsely make up and /or twist any story or idea in order to stay where he is. He has done exactly that while in office so why does Romney not understand he is doing it now and will continue to do it in order to stay in office? Romney can't be, "Mr. nice guy," just because Obama is President. Forget what office he holds and go after this habitual liar who is destroying our country with everything available including his past, his policy, his absolute failing and stop this whining asking for apologies because he lied about you.

Whining about an apology has only succeeded in doing exactly what Obama wanted this lie about Romney and Bain Capital to do which is take the focus off of the issues and Obama's failure and focus it on Romney's weakness as a candidate and his past whether true or not. This is all that has been in the news on the campaign stump for the last week and Romney has lost his message, any momentum and if he keeps it up the Presidency.

He has several former McCain staffers on his campaign payroll. My advice is to FIRE their weak miserable behinds and get some people on his staff who have a pair and are willing to fight Obama in the pits that Obama is so savvy at being in. If Romney doesn't get his act together soon and quit with this pity pat, nice guy, whining for apologies image we are going to be stuck with another four years of Obama and the compete destruction of our country.

Obama's failure his constant lying and his complete deception of the American people along with the economy that belongs to Obama and every struggling American who struggles as a result of Obama is more than enough to defeat this plague in The White House and Mitt Romney better get off his gentleman's tail NOW and fight or we will not survive as a country with another four Obama years.

UPDATE, UPDATE - BARACK OBAMA STOOPS TO A NEW LOW, THE CREMATION REGISTRY

UPDATE, UPDATE, UPDATE - I posted this as a test, yes a set up. I did my research and know that this is NOT on the Obama website, although I am sure it would be had he thought of it. I wanted to see just how liberals would respond and they did not disappoint me. Take a moment and look in the comment section linked at the bottom of this post. Each liberal comment was expressed with typical anger and vitriol. The same vitriol they are using against Mitt Romney in vilifying him for his hard earned wealth and using off shore accounts.

Yet they do NOT mention the off shore accounts of Nancy Pelosi and other wealthy Democrats just like they did not mention the wealth of John Kerry during the 2004 campaign, whose net worth triples that of Romney's. A Democrat can be wealthy and liberals have no problem with it but a wealthy Republican are the evil rich who hurt poor Americans.  Thank you libs for not disappointing me and proving once again the anger and accusations are all that you can place in force during an election campaign.


This Cremation Registry is as false as your ridiculous charges against Mitt Romney. Will you understand the comparison? I doubt it because with liberals the seriousness of the charge is more important than the evidence of truth.  


Just when one thinks that Barack Obama, the idiot in chief, cannot stoop any lower he does. Remember a few weeks ago when he suggested to donors to not purchase wedding, birthday or anniversary gifts and rather donate to his campaign, then set up as registry to do so on his website?

Now he is calling for donors to forgo an expensive funeral and cremate loved ones which is much less costly and donate the difference to his reelection campaign. Yes, skip the casket, the grave sight, the burial vault and cremate your loved one to show how much you want Obama reelected. This is not a joke it is on his site and the above picture is from the official Obama reelection site.

This disgusting infection on America has to go and this new low for the idiot in chief is just one more of a list of tens of thousands of reasons to get Obama out of office!

BARACK OBAMA PROVIDES MY BIRTHDAY WISH

Today is my 56th birthday and I have but one birthday wish for me, my children and this country that I love. Fellow patriots, join me in doing all that is within our power to fulfill our Constitutional responsibility as citizens who loan authority to government and eliminate the plague of Barack Obama from the Office of President and send him to oblivion and an after thought in our history as the failed joke that he is.

November 6, 2012 vote to remove Obama from office taking his leftist cohorts in Congress with him as we put a conservative majority in both the House and the Senate to begin the restoration of our beloved Republic to the Founding principles that have made us the greatest Nation on Earth and in the history of the world. God bless America and our march to victory in 2012.

BARACK, "TAX," OBAMA WHINES AGAIN

The child in The White House is whining about how unfair taxes are again. He has again proposed a, "new," tax plan which only rehashes the old tax plan that he has been whining about for three years.  Obama has this obsession about $250,000 dollars and considers anyone who makes more than this as, "rich," and as such it is his childish responsibility to steal their hard earned money, most of which are the small business owners who provide more than 25% of ALL American jobs.  But what does this whining baby care about jobs or hard working Americans because it's, "unfair," that they keep what they earn according to baby Obama.

The, "new," old plan is to once again eliminate the Bush era tax rates that have been in effect since 2001 for anyone making more than $250,000 dollars and extent the rates for those who make less. For the, "rich," this means a 30% tax hike for the rest he considers keeping rates that have been in place for eleven years as a, "tax cut."  HOW STUPID DOES HE THINK WE ARE. When a tax rate is already in effect and only extended it is NOT a tax cut but a continued rate which Americans are already paying.

Along with baby Obama's whining about how unfair the tax rates are he is claiming that with deficits and debt as high as they are we can no longer afford to give the, "rich," tax cuts. Of course there is NO MENTION whatsoever of cutting spending but a child who spends our money like a drunken sailor could care less about cutting spending only increasing it. Additionally eliminating the Bush era rates for everyone who makes over $250,000 dollars only raises $85 billion in additional revenue which is a pittance which would pay for ONLY eight days of current government spending.

Call it what he wants and and deny it as he does baby Obama is the class warfare king and he plays this disgusting card at every opportunity in order to anger his base at the, "evil," rich making claims that Americans who work hard everyday, fulfill their responsibilities to their families and whose strong work ethic, personal abilities and achievement are the true fulfillment of the American dream and the Constitutional principle defined by our Founders as freedom from government interfering with a citizens ability to prosper and evil a deserved to be financially punished.

This Founding principle of course disagrees with baby Obama's goal of forcing Americans into complete government dependency, the distribution of wealth and his plan that government dictate how we live as Americans.  This is why he plays class warfare. This is why he considers hard working Americans and especially small business owners enemies of the state because they work for themselves and their family providing jobs and refuse to bow to his overbearing government.

If Obama were to have his childish way and if he is reelected his vision of America would rewrite the Preamble of the Constitution to read as follow, "We the government of The United States in order to form a socialist Union, rob justice, insure domestic slavery, provide for the common dependency, promote a welfare state and eliminate the blessings of liberty for all posterity, do rewrite and destroy this Constitution of The United States of America." This is baby Obama's America.

BARACK OBAMA NOT POPULAR REGARDLESS OF POLLING

First there is only one poll that counts during any election cycle and that is the one that takes place on election day when the final results are in and a winner is declared whether it's a Presidential election or any other office. Polls are regularly skewed and the numbers are a result of a lack of ideological balance in the polling sample. Most of the polling leans left with the polling balance having more proclaimed Democrats than Republicans or Independents. Also much of the polling consists of either an across the board sample of people who may or may not vote or registered voters rather than what are considered likely voters who will actually take the time and effort to head to the polls on election day and cast a vote.

With all that said recent polling shows Obama with a slight lead in battleground states and on most national polling. DON'T BELIEVE IT or let it cause discouragement in thinking that he is a shoe in on November 6th when Americans vote for President. There are several indications of Obama's complete lack of popularity that speak volumes and are much more revealing then skewed polling.

Mitt Romney has out raised Obama for the last two months, May and June and not by just a small amount but a significant amount of campaign cash. In fact Obama has been forced to seek donations over seas from European support in order to find money to support his struggling campaign because Americans are not financially supporting him. This in itself is very revealing about Obama's lack of popularity and his failing as President which equates to a loss in November. It also reveals a disgusting move by Obama to use foreign money to help decide an American election in which ONLY Americans should have a voice and Europeans have no business participating in.

The economy is another revelation as to whether Obama faces defeat. The economy is in the pits and all indicators show it will not improve and in fact continue to tank between now and November. The jobs market is non existent regardless of Obama's claim that Junes numbers showing 80,000 new jobs is a, "start."  Unemployment is holding above 8% with no improvement in sight and more Americans dropping out of the jobs market every month who understand that this is Obama's economy and most Americans are also tired of hearing the lie that it is all Bush's fault. Obama owns this mess and Americans know it.

No President has ever been reelected with unemployment above 7% and it will not drop below that number before November. If it won't fall during the Summer when temporary Summer jobs abound it certainly will not fall after the Summer when those jobs no longer exist. Obama's approval ratings continue to hold in the mid 40's and lower which also indicates his failure. No President has ever been reelected with approval ratings under 50% and even the skewed to the left polling can't get those ratings to rise.

Regardless of how anyone feels about the Supreme Court decision on Obamacare, the Court has placed the massive chain of the largest tax increase in world history around Obama's neck and Americans hate tax increases. This will be a problem for Obama all the way to November and it is now one he cannot run away from nor deny anymore because of the SCOTUS decision.

I am not one to take for granted anything in politics but all the indicators are against Obama. Until the winner is declared on the evening of November 6th we as Americans who believe in freedom and our Constitution and know that Obama is a plague to both as well as the most destructive force to our country in our history, we understand that our fight will not be over until Obama is out of office. The battle is not over and his defeat is necessary to save our country. Don't let skewed numbers discourage you and cause you to give up or believe Obama is untouchable and cannot be defeated. He can an he will and we the people will end this plague to America.

HOMELAND SECURITY WOULD CALL GEORGE WASHINGTON A TERRORIST

A new study by The Department of Homeland Security would have called George Washington and all of our Founding Fathers terrorists. In fact the definition that has been put forth by this ridiculous study that Napolitano and crowd are now using to base their search for possible terrorist threats would consider most Americans terrorist including yours truly.

According to the study the, "goal of this program is to sponsor research that will aid the intelligence and law enforcement communities in identifying potential terrorist threat.”  The study is designed to define for the purpose of seeking out those who pose a threat to our national security as a terrorist and the traits that would define who a, "right wing," terrorist might be.

According to the study if a person prefers, "individual liberty," or, "reverent to individual liberty," they are considered now by Homeland Security as a possible terrorist threat. If an individual is, "anti global," and, "fiercely nationalistic," according to Homeland Security they pose a terrorist threat.  Being, "suspicious of centralized federal authority, " is another definition that Homeland Security now considers a person who poses a terrorist threat. Any person who also believes in, "conspiracy theories," that, "involve a grave threat to national sovereignty and/or personal liberty," are now considered a terrorist threat.

This definition of a terrorist would have applied to all of our Founding Fathers. It applies to any American including myself who loves their country, believes in individual liberty and disagrees with our government and expresses that disagreement which according to our Constitution is a right and even a responsibility in which we as citizens have if we see that our government is not acting as we believe it should. 

This definition would consider the statement in the Declaration of Independence which states if a government attacks our freedom as Great Britain did which prompted our Revolution and, "That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government," according to Homeland security this would now be considered a terrorist act. So our own Revolution which gave birth to our Nation now would be a terrorist act performed by terrorists who are a threat to national security.

This disgusting move by Homeland Security and yes, the Obama Administration is another in a long line of descriptions by our current occupants of power in Washington which considers patriots who love our country and believe that government is over reaching its authority robbing our God given liberties and seeking to enslave free Americans to government in a forced dependency as a terrorism threat. That being the case than this patriot who loves individual liberty and knows that our government is threatening those liberties by it's overbearing power grab against freedom is proud to be considered a terrorist and in company with our Founding Fathers.

INDEPENDENCE, LIBERTY AND FREEDOM HAS A HIGH COST

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

With these words Thomas Jefferson embodied the heart of freedom and liberty. As the signers of the Declaration Of Independence placed their very lives on the line for these principles of freedom to gain independence on that summers day in 1776 they gave birth to a new idea. An idea that had never before found its equal or better in a government by man. An idea that encompassed the most basic of human rights but had never before been allowed to flourish in any country.

An idea which allowed all people regardless of where they came from, who their parents were, what their financial status was or how they worshipped the unalienable right to think do and live as they pleased. To prosper in accordance with their will and willingness to achieve. To worship in accordance to their personal beliefs. To raise their family on their own land without being subservient to another.

To live without the fear of oppression or threat of a tyrant, monarch or government that imposed their will upon the individual. To some all of these freedoms were not evident from the beginning but the ground work was laid to make those freedoms possible for any and everyone.

To this cause and the birth of this new nation in which these freedoms could find root in the heart and life of every person who set foot upon her shores, the signers of The Declaration dedicated themselves in, "support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor. "

It would be another six years before full independence was gained and yet another seven more before the government which embodied theses principles of freedom was established. In those long hard fought years many would sacrifice their, lives , fortunes and sacred honor, to gain the freedom that was promised in The Declaration.

Most who made this sacrifice never signed the document that gave birth to this Nation. Most who sacrificed never made the pledge of the signers publicly but all who sacrificed realized that with freedom comes a price and each were willing to pay that price regardless of the cost, for in their hearts they knew that their sacrifice would not be in vain. With that sacrifice would come a new nation forged in blood and dedicated to the premise that all people should and can be free.

Those who made this sacrifice were not making an idle stand nor one that just followed the crowd but willingly stood for what they believed and sought within their very heart, the chance to be free. The chance to wake every morning to know that they held within their own hands the ability to lead the life of their choosing. This is why they fought. This is why many died and this is why throughout our history we have continued to fight and sacrifice to pay the price of freedom.

As we celebrate this 236th birthday of our freedom, as a nation let us not forget the sacrifice that has been made through all of those years to continually insure that each generation of Americans can enjoy the same freedoms as the generations who have gone before. Let us not forget the reason that we as a nation exist that, " life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, " may always be our national creed and our national calling.

May we never take for granted those freedoms and realize each freedom we possess as individuals and as a Nation has come with great sacrifice from the very inception of our country and that sacrifice still continues today to insure those freedoms and this Nation continue to live. We have a heritage of freedom and it is a heritage that we owe to continue at any cost to insure that future generations of Americans can celebrate and live in that same freedom.

God bless America and may He continue to bless our freedom and each of us who live in this land of the free.

THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE

On a rain soaked Tuesday 56 Americans gathered in the state house of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania voting on a Resolution of Independence proposed by Henry Lee of Virginia in June. Two days later, the fourth of July the immortal document, The Declaration of Independence was adopted to officially notify all why we must be a free and independent Nation severing all ties with Great Britain.

For this sacred cause these brave men were willing to sacrifice their, lives, fortunes and sacred honor to be free! Fellow Americans and patriots why we are who we are as a Nation and the reasons that we became a Nation must be reinforced and a constant reminder of what has been sacrificed for our liberty and the willingness to give all for freedom.

So in celebration of this day in which our Nation was born and the Resolution of Independence was adopted by the Continental Congress I share with you our Declaration Of Independence. God bless America on our 236th birthday.

IN CONGRESS, July 4, 1776.

The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen United States of America,

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--

That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--

Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.

He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only. He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures. He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.

He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the Legislative powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within.He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers.

He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.

He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:

For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:

For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:

For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:

For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences:

For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies"

For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:

For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.

He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us. He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people. He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.

He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands. He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions.

In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.

Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our Brittish brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.

We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.

Happy Birthday to the greatest country in world history our beloved United States of America!

INDEPENDENCE DECLARED JULY 2, 1776

July 2, 1776 the Second Continental Congress voted in Philadelphia to declare Independence breaking from Great Britain and giving birth to The United States of America. This scene from the brilliant mini series John Adams brings to life in true form the vote for Independence. Twelve States voted in favor with one State, New York abstaining.

As these men representing the people voted the magnitude of their decision weighed heavily as they understood that in doing so they placed their lives, their honor and their fortunes on the line to bring forth a free country founded upon the principle that all men are created equal and, "endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights."

On July 4, 1776 the Declaration of Independence was adopted by the Congress and revealed to the public for the first time and sent out to each of the new American States allowing every man woman and child to read or hear the declaration made which brought for as John Adams stated in a speech before the Congress in the days before the vote on the second, "as long as I live, let me live in a country, a free country."

Our Republic was born on this day 236 years ago. A Nation of laws where liberty reigns. May God bless this Nation we love. May freedom always abound and may we as citizens of this great land follow the example of our Founders and stand for freedom willing to fight for it with all that we are so that future generations may know the liberties that have made The United States of America the greatest Nation to ever exist in the history of the world.
