Obama cries Foul!

http://news.yahoo.com/obama-something-wrong-countrys-politics-194019280.html

Obama aired his frustration with the ways of Washington at an event in Michigan before pivoting to his re-election campaign and a pair of big-money fundraisers in New York City.

He delivered a condensed version of that message at a fundraiser at the lower Manhattan home of movie producer Harvey Weinstein, where celebrities Gwyneth Paltrow and Jimmy Fallon, were among the approximately 50 guests who paid $35,800 each to attend.

This is a key paragraph that it is OBAMA who is not cooperating, and constantly playing politics.  He says he is against the rich “Fat cats” with their jets and all of that.   HE is the one who uses USA owned Air Force One for yet another private party and political fundraiser, at a wealthy persons private residence and it is HE who charges 35 thousand dollars each to hear him speak!  I know that he does not come to my house, because I don’t have 35 thousand dollars to throw away on a dinner with him. 

Obama said he told his Michigan audience that it deserves better than what it’s been getting from Washington.

“They look at what’s happening in Washington and they think these folks are really from outer space because they don’t seem to understand how critical it is for us all to work together, Republicans, Democrats, independents, in order to move this country forward,” Obama said.

Obama pandered to what he considers our simple stupidity when he refuses to acknowledge that he too is the hated Washington.  More of his method of always pointing at the other guy as the problem.

“We’re going to have to get engaged and we’re going to have to speak out,” Obama said. “We’re going to have to register the fact that we expect more and we expect better.”

Here he goes again.  He has nothing but scorn for the Tea Party movement.  His administration called the Tea party movement activitists, “terrorists”.  He accuses the Tea party people of being the cause of all of our financial problems and then he says the above. 

Unfortunately what we’ve seen in Washington in the last few months has been the worst kind of partisanship, the worst kind of gridlock, and that gridlock has undermined public confidence and impeded our efforts to take the steps we need for our economy,” Obama said after touring a Michigan factory that makes advanced batteries for alternative-fuel vehicles.

Please stop insulting the collective intelligence of the USA citizens.  John Steward may have called the American people “stupid.”  and you may have said that those who do not agree with you “…love to cling to their guns and their religion…”  Yet, it was only a few days ago that you still, after all this time, did not produce a written budget proposal, asked for a blank check, and threatened to “veto” the results of the congressional debate that was not rancorous nor partisan but civil and patriotic.  It was you, Mr. President who failed and exacerbated your failure with your fellow democrat, Harry Reid, who constantly said, “Any bill coming to the Senate from the House is dead on arrival.”

This is like a terrible game of basketball, (a game the president plays a lot ).  The player cries foul, when he is the person doing the foul.  When this is discovered, he claims that the refs are blind and unfair.  Then when this is discovered, he says that we need better refs to enforce the rules.  All the time the player continues to foul the opposite team and to try endlessly to win by fouling.  Obama crying “foul” all the time is a very big part of the problem.

 

Solutions for Libya.

USA stops ALL support for the Illegal Criminal Oil war aggression against Libya.

USA restores full diplomatic recognition of the legal and current government of Libya.

USA withdraws support for the crony Hague Courts Declaration of Gaddafi as a “war criminal”

USA refuses to support arrest warrant issued by that politically motivated court.

USA tells Sarkozy and Cameron it will introduce UN resolution in Security Council to end all bombing of Libya.

USA tells UN that it support UN humanitarian aid to NATO destroyed Libya.

USA flushes all State department and Defense department and Cabinet members who have war gamed this illegal war.

USA stops money to rebels in Libya, money which is siphoned into personal bank accounts of rebel leaders in France.  Yes, that is where the rebel leaders have been, come from and to which they will flee when all of this is over.

This is not easy.  It was a few months ago, when the USA would not have needed to do any of the above.  But Obama has continued to dig the hole and widen the separation between Libya and the USA.  Just 90 days ago, Obama could have stopped all of this carnage by simply refusing to be a part of the UN resolution.  Even after his support for it, he could have stopped it by living the truth of his words instead of secretly continuing to do what he told the American people he was not doing.  Now that Obama has withdrawn diplomatic recognition from Tripoli and given it to the insurgent forces, the USA has to go through third-party diplomats to even have a conversation with the legal government of Libya!  Terrible fiasco by Hillary Clinton and Barrack Obama.  Maybe, “Joe the Plumber” would have done a better job?

 

 

Assad’s Syria Learned Not to Trust Obama and USA

Syria’s Assad may be a Dictator but he is not a fool.  He knows better than to trust the USA and especially a USA under Obama.  The USA had a deal with Libya and with Gaddafi and we reneged on the deal.  The USA proposed to bring Gaddafi back onto the international scene in return for his giving up terrorism.  He did.  But we did not honor our promise.  We told him we would sponsor his return to a recognized place in the world political order, if he would abandon any attempt at nuclear weapons.  He did.  But we reneged on the deal and branded him a criminal.  We promised to lift trade restrictions and to resume normal relationships with Libya and Gaddafi if he would invest more in his country and less in himself.  He did and instead, we betrayed him in the UN and attacked his new cities, his roads, building, TV stations, radio facilities, etc.  In every instance where the USA made promises to Libya and Gaddafi under President Bush, the Obama regime reversed course and played Judas betraying every single promise made.

Well Assad, has eyes to see and ears to hear.  He has a much stronger military and a much stronger hold on power.  He does not trust the West and has ample reason for refusing to cooperate.  He just looks to Egypt and sees the long time ally of USA, Hosni Mubarak, who was betrayed by USA and is now in a prison cage, like some sick monkey.  Then he looks to Libya, whose country is in ruins, not because of Gaddafi, but because of months of daily bombing by UN condoned and NATO supplied attack bombers, and missiles.

The Obama support for this illegal and criminal war of aggression is disgraceful.  The Congress must immediately stop all funding for this “oil war” which is severely hurting the Libyan people because they continue to support their legal government.  Further, the Senators, like Mc Cain and Kerry who support this terrible colonialist imperialist war, should look at their own record and retract their war mongering support for this war of aggression.  Lastly, the Departments of Defense and State should be warned by the whole Congress that the legally elected Representatives of the American people are not going to idly condone the misuse of America military assets, power, personnel and money in support of this egregious assault against the civilian population of Libya.  And then, when we have rebuilt what we have destroyed, maybe in ten years or so, then we can be trusted again.  After all, who can trust a liar?

Libyan Rebels do not Represent Libyan People

http://news.yahoo.com/libyan-rebels-try-impose-control-210918933.html

Take a look at the Photo. Who ARE these people? And instead of the legally recognized government of Libya which is recognized around the world, we want to hand over one of the largest Oil fields in North Afriia to these guys? Why? It is because we think that we can control them and that finally Sarkozy and his personal hatred for Gaddalfi will be appeased.
Lastly, why is the Libyan government still in power. If the Rebellion were really a “civil revolt” as the USA and France and Britain want us to believe, then why are not all of the cities of Libya in constant protest and mass civilian political rallies, etc. Could it be that the so call “rebels” are really mercenaries used by France, Britain and USA to get control of the people of Libya’s only real asset? Oil. It is their oil and they sell it to the world and are more than willing to do so, legally, cooperatively and at market prices, so what is the problem? And let’s face it, it is not because Sarkozy, Cameron and Obama love the Libyan people!

Who Pays for Air Force One?

How much does it cost the Federal Budget each time President Obama uses Air Force One to attend a political fundraiser? I do not want to be petty. I do understand that the President has every right to use Air Force One and Marine One for Government and even some personal business, like going on vacation. However, do we really need to pay for the President’s constant use of Air Force One as his personal private jet? This is especially an issue when the President criticizes all the Corporation heads who use Private Jets. At least with them such use creates jobs at American private airports, American Jet manufacturing plants like Gulfstream, and employs American mechanics, etc. But what does the President’s use of Air Force One produce when he uses it for a local metropolitan fundraiser? Gridlock and shutdown. And, of course, overtime pay for State uniformed employees, who are paid with our tax dollars!

Obama not Helping

The President is constantly saying we need to work, but does he work? It seems he is playing golf, having parties, going on vacation and attending political fund-raisers. When does he study, hear briefings, attend update sessions of each cabinet member and just take the needed time to write down his actual agenda?
The President says we need to cooperate. But then he blames the opposition party for everything. What do you think of a person who says on Monday that it is all your fault, that he takes no blame and that you and your backers are the devil and then turns right around and says, “What we need is more cooperation.”? I think of the President as the Whiner and Divider in chief!  Then there is the issue of the so-called Tea Party.  What is the Tea Party?  According to the President and his administration, including the entire Democrat party, the Tea Party members are  the major, if not the sole, cause of all of our problems.  Sounds a lot like the Nazi’s who blamed the Gypsies, the Gays and the Jews for all of Germany’s problems.  Will the Czars of the Obama administration demand that all citizens affiliated with the Tea Party Movement register as “terrorists?”  or be required to wear a yellow tea bag sewn onto their clothing?  Will the children of Tea Party affiliated Americans be vilified and mocked in the public school system and be ostracized in the publicly supported colleges?  The Obama administration is a seething pot of anger that spews forth boiling condemnations of swaths of American citizens as though these American citizens are the enemy.  Maybe they are the enemy of the Obama Administration, but Hey, this is America, after all, and such political opposition is our inherent and constitutional right.  I remember that during the Presidential campaign Candidate Obama said that he would not visit West Virginia because they were not his people.  I think that avoiding a State you are slated to lose is standard practice, but to actually say that the people of that State are not your people betrays your values.  It says that you consider yourself to be President of “your” people, namely those who agree with you, and the others are the enemy!  Sad really!  A good thing and maybe the finest thing for President Obama to do would be not to run for a second term.  It would save a lot of trouble.

Tea Party is good for America

I am the leader of several voluntary organizations. There is one thing that is fearsome, it is apathy. The worst thing that can happen to an organization is for nobody to care. When no one “gives a damn” then the organization is doomed. It’s terminal date has been written by the lack of involvement of its (nominal) members.
America is in trouble. But often organizations do their very best when they are challenged. The pressures of a crisis can cause an apathetic membership to shake off the stupor and rally to the cause.
The Tea party is a grass roots effort at rally. The people involved are not “kooks” or as the Brits accuse, “right wing nutters”. Rather, they are good citizens, working and retired Americans who care about their nation, see it floundering, and want to do their best to help. And the venue they choose is Political organization.
Why? Because they realize that public rally and political pressure are their only means of making a difference. And all of that is very good for America. I really don’t know the actual quote but it goes something like this, All that is needed for a free people to become enslaved is for them to do nothing.

Is America a Criminal Aggressor?

The USA Administration is phony.  It declares an Arab Spring when Obama visited Cairo after his election.  Then it stalls at first and then fully condemns Mubarak, ignoring the Islamic fundamentalist threat.  At the same time it tells Israel to go back to pre Arab War borders.  It also is mild with Syria while joining in the vile and violent illegal and criminal aggression against Libya.  Then it ignores the Ivory coast dictator and continues with Sarkozy to bomb Libya.  Then it continues to refrain from any UN action against Syria while we watch hundred of civilians kills in the streets of Damascus and Hama and elsewhere in Syria.  But we continue to bomb Libya along with Cameron who is complicit with Sarkozy in illegal criminal aggression against the legal government of Libya.  Meanwhile we completely ignore the Jihadist attempts to take over Somalia while ten thousand people there die of hunger.  But we continue to bomb Libya.  And while Assad destroys the entire city of Hama, we threaten to isolate him but completely rule out any action, yet we continue to bomb Libya.  What is there inside of Libya that Sarkozy, Cameron and Obama want?  OIL…this is a terrible return to Western European Territorial aggression by former colonialist and imperialist France, Britain and Belgium . I speak of this on my BloG Talk Radio podcast
