Obama Scolder and Demander in Chief

After last week’s talks broke down, US congressional leaders got a scolding from
President Obama Saturday morning and have been working steadily since then. They
hoped to be able to show enough progress by Sunday afternoon EST to avoid
spooking Asian markets, which open Sunday evening EST.

 

This comment on the wire services deserves comment.

Firstly, I am amazed that an US citizen would say that the President of the USA has the right to scold the elected Representatives of the Congress.  What are we?  Is Obama the big daddy and we the little wayward children?  That is absurd.

Secondly, what makes the writer think that Obama has some kind of edge here.  He does not.  As I remember the process, it goes like this:  The President proposes and the Congress disposes.  Obama has turned this upside down.  He demands that the House of Representatives produce a budget to which he will agree.  That is ass backwards.

Thirdly, the writer does not care to mention that there are no researched, written proposals on the part of the President or of his administration concerning the actual makeup of the budget.  All that Obama does is crack the whip, make demands, scold, wag his finger, complain and whine that the other guys are not carrying his load for him.

The President needs to stop being the preacher, the parent, or the teacher.  He needs to stop demanding, criticizing, blaming and name calling.  He needs to stop whining and get to work proposing actual money figures.  He needs to propose legislation in a legislation format.  Up til now, he makes a speech about something and then tells the legislators to get to work and turn his speech into actual practical possible legislation.  Hey,Mr. President, as you maybe have not noticed, but if you are as brilliant as your media friends say you are, then you should have noticed that your way of thinking and doing is false, phony and completely not doable.

The Republicans have worked very hard for America.  The put forward the Plan named “the way forward” AKA also known as the Ryan plan after US house of Representatives member Mr. Paul Ryan.  But instead of engaging this viable plan, Democrat Senator Harry Reid called it “Dead on Arrival at the Senate.”  That was months ago and if the Democrats did not like it they could have done their jobs by examining it, debating it, amending it and passing their own form of it .  This amended form would have gone to a joint committee of both the house and the Senate a compromise reached for the passage of a bill which would have raised the debt ceiling, made appropriate cuts, hemmed in spending and guaranteed the viability of Medicare and Social Security.  Instead the Democrat controlled Senate nixed it without debate and refused to compromise.

Then the Republican leaders tried to meet with the Democrats of the Senate but were refused because the price of admission set by Democrat Harry Reid was that the Republicans do it his way or they could forget about even meeting.

Then we get this Gang of Six bi partisan proposal which raises the debt limit for Obama and then merely directs, suggests and proposals possibilities for cutting US Spending.  Senator Rand Paul said that the Gang of six proposal was a bunch of crudely formulated suggestions for a way to get things done; a suggestion that others get to work in the coming year and figure this thing out.  He said on Sean Hannity that the so-called “Gang of Six” proposal is not in any way formatted as legislation.  By the way, this Gang of Six proposal was refused by Obama in December.

Then we have the House of Representative pass the Cap and Balance bill which also raised the debt limit and seriously address the 14 trillion dollar deficit.  Again the Senate did not debate the bill, nor seek to amend it and go to compromise committee but Democrat Senator Harry Reid marshalled his Democrat majority in the Senate and defeated it instead of engaging it, modifying it and compromising.

 

Meanwhile back at the White House we have the President engaging in an illegal war of criminal aggression against the people of Libya.  He is also playing B ball and golf and having parties at the WH.  And when he constantly since January 2011 reminded of the looming budget crisis he shrugs it off and blames everything on Bush and Boehner.

The President needs to get to work tonight to research, develop and propose a budget for the USA.  He does not have one and it will take him months to make one.  So the question is, “What Has Obama been doing?”  The answer, sadly, is that he has been doing and continues to do nothing.

Obama and Sarkozy Hate Gaddafi

http://news.yahoo.com/defiant-gadhafi-threatens-attacks-europe-172253923.html

The USA should not be allied with French Liar Sarkozy.  The people of the USA should not be seen as untrustworthy.  We gave promises to Gaddafi and then we reneged.  We said we would rehabilitate him in peace with the West and then we tried to murder him and his family.  Is the USA a Mafia State?  Are we criminal aggressors?  Are we two-faced traitors who give promises one day and then change our mind the next?  Who in the world could trust such a country?  The war against Libya is not viewed by the world as an effort to protect civilians.  It is seen as Obama and Sarkozy and Cameron attacking an Arab country that never attacked them.  It is seen as further evidence that the Obama Administration is not to be trusted.  It is seen as a war for oil.  I ask my readers to lay aside the stereotypes of Libyan leader Gaddafi.  I ask you to read the article without the prejudice of the New York Times and TIME magazine.  I ask you to play a game.  Just let yourself assume that the Libyans are telling the truth and the Europeans and Americans are lying.  Then review the facts, including todays revelation that French leader Sarkozy has been supplying weapons and advisors to the so-called “rebels” from the beginning. Email your Senators and Congress people to stop funding for the criminal war of aggression against Libya.

Obama was being a “dick” today

http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/cutline/msnbc-suspends-mark-halperin-obama-remark-145819640.html

I guess we need to call MSNBC the OBAMA channel!

Shame on us.  Where is political honesty?  Where is freedom of the Press?  Where is that “Stand up and Speak out” spirit of the America of our fathers and our founders?

Let’s face it. President Obama is a finger wagging nag who acts like the Church Lady on Saturday  Night live.

He fully understands our situation.  He is an intelligent man who achieved the Presidency of the USA no mean feat!

Yet, he does not have a plan!!!

President Obama is used to the idea that all he needs to do pronounce the WHAT of the situation and the minions who obsequiously surround him will produce the HOW.  He reminds me of GRU in the cartoon as he tells the “minions” that he is the greatest villain in the world.   Hey, President Obama makes a great cartoon character.  Maybe, after we release him from office, he will patent himself to Cartoon Network!

And NO…I absolutely do not apologize to the President or the White House.  They are,, after all, the SERVANTS of the people who elected them.  The concept that when we elected them to office we gave them all power and all wisdom and all strength, is absurd.  They are still subject to the WILL and the CONSENT of the people.

Frankly, this writer sees a very alarming trend coming from the White House.  They try to get Congress to do the bidding of the Obama Administration.  Then, when they fail, they blame the Congress for being lazy or “whatever” accusation they can make. Then when this fails, they turn everything topsy-turvy and try to assert that the President is all-powerful and does not need the consent of the Congress or the consent of the people.

What is the VERY MOST troubling aspect of this?  It is the assertion that the President has all power and that the other elected and /or appointed branchs within our Constitutional Republic do not have any power. I reject that concept as dangerous to my own freedom and the freedom of my children, grandchildren and neighbors.  We have a system of checks and balances. And we have a system of the Separation of Powers.  I am very troubled that our nation is frightened.  It is frightened by the Big Federal Government.  It is frightened by the IRS.  It is afraid of the FBI and the CIA.    It is afraid to call the President a “dick” when, in political terms, the commentator believes that he has been a “dick”.

Hey, friends, are there no men in our government?  Are we willing to say that the only “dick” worthy of the title is the President?  And if we use the term in a negative sense all of the other men must grab up their skirts, cower together and say “I am  sorry” to the “dick”.

Maybe America as we have known it actually is in decline?

Why Europe Loves Obama?

http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/cifamerica/2011/may/22/obamaphilia-more-europes-weakness-than-president

President Obama is in real trouble at home.  He seems like a nice guy, we have all seen that.  But gone are the days when starry-eyed supporters of Obama called him a Genius, or Brilliant, or a great Orator, or a World Leader.  Really, he IS just a man who happens to be President of the USA.  He will always be known as the first Black man to be President and for that he has great historical significance.  But he could also be known as the first Socialist President, or the first President to give away USA sovereignty to International organizations like the UN or NATO or the European Court in Brussels.  For this writer, it is time to let him go.  His first term establishes him for history.  He will get a great pension, make a boat load of money on the Speaker’s circuit, build his Presidential Library and he will do no further harm to the USA or his own reputation.

11 More Americans Dead in Iraq

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2011/06/26/501364/main20074517.shtml?tag=re1.channel

Let there be a brand new chant in the streets of USA.  It should be ” Get out of Iraq.”  The second chant should be “Get out of Afghanistan.”  And the third should be, ” Get out of Libya.”  This is not a call for isolationism.  It is a call for the survival of the USA.   Why should thousands have died to overthrown Saddam?  They should not have.  Why should we continue to bleed America of her fine young men and women?  We should not.  Let’s tell Obama and whoever we choose for the new President that we are finished with WAR.  We want the wars to stop. And that we require any future President to get a declaration of war BEFORE he commits our military to conflict.  That includes that the President should be hindered from the kind of wars we are engaged in and have been engaged in for nine years.  There is no way that any of these wars is for the betterment of humanity.  They are for killing.  I know that our very fine military have done their very best to bring democracy, better living conditions, better health and education to the areas in which they are fighting.  It is definitely not their fault.  They are the ones who have honor, dignity and who hate war the most. Afterall, protestors in USA and elsewhere do not die for their beliefs!  Soldiers bleed, are maimed and die.  So let’s not blame the messengers.  Let’s put it where it belongs on the politicians, including the Congress.  Let’s use the ballot box, which we say we are fighting to give to other nations like Libya and the like.  Let’s have a new President who refuses wars, calls home ALL of our military and focuses solely on repairing and healing a hurting America.

McCain and Obama Warmongers

http://beta.news.yahoo.com/mccain-rips-republican-candidates-isolationism-165050541.html

I thought I would never be writing this about John Mc Cain, but it is time for him to retire.  He is a war hero, Yes.  He suffered terribly under the Viet Cong.  Yes.  He has served in the Senate honorably for many terms. Yes.  But this victim of war and its terror and its horror now promotes war.  He is a loud shouting voice in favor of bombing Libya.  He advocates the continued illegal aggression against the Libyan people by the United nations and North Atlantic treaty Alliance, NATO.  He is a Republican who is the mouth piece in the US Senate for the terrorist methods of the Obama Administration as it uses drones, bombs, missiles, and secret CIA agents against the legal government of Libya.   Now Mc Cain has totally turned irrational as he attacks his own Republican party as being isolationist.  Please note that Senator Mc Cain has ample opportunity to daily use the private meetings and the closed-door meetings of the Senate in order to express personally, officially and forcefully to his colleague his views, but instead, he uses the public broadcast system, the leftist media outlets and the public Senate floor in order to castigate those of his party who do not agree with him.  Like so many these days, he is a “John Mc Cain” Republican in the same ilk as a “Scott Brown” and “Olympia Snow” Republican, which means that they stand for what they themselves believe and that the electorate has no idea how they will vote because once elected these kind of “John Mc Cain” Republicans do exactly as they please and the citizens who elected them be damned.  At least Michelle Bachmann  is openly a “Tea Party” Republican and Paul Ryan is a “on the table for all to see” fiscally conservative Republican. President Obama campaigned and was elected as a “new” Democrat but he is increasingly an “old” Democrat who tells the citizens a vague message of “Hope and Change” and when elected he does what ever he pleases including an ill thought out “surge” in Afghanistan and an illegal war of aggression against Libya.  Sadly, McCain has six years, but if he does not turn back to his basic conservative base, he should be primaried and replaced by a more peace-loving Republican.  As for Obama, his term is up and he should be a one term President.  We have done the “historic” bit for him and now he needs to be retired before he does any more damage to the US Economy and world standing.

Is the Arab Spring Actually an Obama Idea for World Revolution?

http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/17/world/africa/17diplomacy.html?_r=2&hp

Not too much here to say that was not covered in other posts.  However, one absolutely must ask the question of the connection betweeen the NATO led and Obama backed Aggression to topple the Libyan government and Obama’s speech that Irael must return to 1967 borders.  Was the “1967 Borders” speech an overt threat to Israel?  Was Obama warning them to stay out of his “Middle East Spring” plan? Did he force the Isreal leader to speak supportively here in order for Obama to continue to give them the money?  I believe that the Master Mind of the New World Order is Barrack Hussein Obama, President of the United States, Commander in Chief of all USA military forces, leader of the NATO alliance, and Executive Director of the Democrat Party.  Add to these New World Order achievements the increased legality for INTERPOL to arrest US citizens within the USA, the recent arrest of the Serbian General on a warrant issued by a International Court, and the pursuit of other so called “enemies” by the United Nations.  Is the New World Order being put into practice right in front of us based on an agenda that such an international police power is only to be used against crimnals and other bad guys?  However, who elected these leaders and Judges, and Police departments?  And who trained and deputized and empowered the international police force?  Does anyone really believe that such international power, once given, can be stopped?

Repub. Make Right Decision on Budget Limit.

It was a hard call but the newly elected House Republicans made the right call and so did many good willed Democrats as they rejected the concept of raising the debt limit without requiring massive cuts in spending.  The newly elected House Republicans were sent to Congress by the Electorate and the message from the American people to the Obama Administration and to the entire Federal government was Stop the spending increases and cut the budgets of current and projected programs.  Congratulations.  You are true American Patriots.  No more compromises on the part of the House of Representatives with a Democrat administration that does not deal fairly, does not keep it pledges, does not take the House seriously.  The Constitution gives the House of Representatives the power of the purse and this writer believes that the majority of Americans are supportive.  It has been a tough week for the people as we wondered if the newly elected Republicans would collapse under Democrat and Presidential pressure? They did not and by voting as they did they have begun to establish again a Constitutional Republic as our founders and all generations until now have intended.  And as for Senator Harry Reid, Please stop being such a phony and lying on the floor of the Senate about how bad those terrible Republicans Reps are and how they will not compromise and how they will not cooperate.  Harry, remember your own words concerning the House proposed Ryan Plan.  You said it was “dead on arrival”.  I do not call THAT a spirit of compromise and cooperation.  Until the Senate Democrat party  starts working FOR America and not stupidly against Republicans, or until we replace the Dogmatic Democrats like Lautenberg and Menendez of New Jersey with genuinely patriotic Senators, nothing will get done to improve the everyday life of the citizens.
