It is increasingly diificult to ascertain the true goals of the Occupy Wall Street (OWS) movement. Comparisons have been made to the Tea Party. As best I can now tell, the whole thing was basically instigated by a renegade Canadian advertising company that extols and anti-consumerism agenda who previous claim to fame was a campaign called “Turn Your TV Off” Day. Regardless, the protests are | Read More »
So according to Barack Obama, the Republican jobs plan seeks to create dirty air, dirty water, and no health care for the population. Yes, and it also encourages those evil railroad companies to put Grandma out of her house, the oil companies to rape the land and God knows what else evil it shall wrought. His plan, on the other hand, is designed to save | Read More »
On September 8th and September 15th, my favorite liberal, Democratic moonbat, Florida Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, had two “Go Obama” press releases that basically said the same thing about his American Jobs Act, otherwise known as Stimulus II, or Special Interest Payoff (insert number here). Without getting into the “soak the rich” rhetoric and double counting of savings from the wind down of wars in Iraq | Read More »
So let me see if I can get this Barack Obama arithmetic down. If someone makes between $34,000 and $50,000, they pay an effective Federal tax of 14.3%, but if one is in the top 5% of earners in household income, the effective Federal tax rate is 27.9% And for those “millionaires and billionaires,” the effective rate is 32%. But according to the Obamatrons, when | Read More »
So tonight, Barack Obama will deliver a major speech to Congress and the American people about jobs. From what the media says, we can expect a $300 billion stimulus-like program. Among the ideas are an extension of the employee payroll tax cuts and a new one for employers. I am all for cutting taxes, hence so far so good. But even still, the proposed employer | Read More »
Looking back on some old articles regarding Obama and his labot agenda, or more appropriately organized labor’s agenda, it is clear that thus far the Republicans have held fairly firm against these rather radical set of proposals. Perhaps, the only two “achievements” are the Ledbetter Act and the increasing and alarming influence of the NLRB. Regarding the former, the Ledbetter Act was passed during | Read More »
Back in early 2008 when Barack Obama, an innocuous Senator from Illinois, began to make rumblings in the Democratic primaries against the Clinton machine, I began to investigate this fellow. Of course, I remembered his 2004 Democratic convention speech and the fact that he was an alleged rising star within the Democratic Party. From 2004 until his election as President, in fact, Obama’s Senatorial | Read More »
Much has been written recently about Obama’s speech at the State Department regarding Middle East policy. When I was in college, I had a professor wrote “psycho-biographies” of philosophers based on knowledge of their lives, their writings, and their philosophies. When that book is finally written on Barack Obama, I am quite sure the phrases “narcissist” and “delusions of grandeur” will somehow be involved. | Read More »
Recently, Barack Obama gave a speech on immigration to an adoring audience in El Paso, Texas. That speech was generally panned by those on the right, the left, the middle, the upside downs, the sideways, and most importantly the Hispanic community. Instead of offering up a coherent Administration policy and strategy, he delivered a highly partisan speech dripping in sarcasm that attracted guffaws from the | Read More »
First and foremost, it needs to be acknowledged that in the real world of politics, Republicans will never win the African-American vote in national elections. Polls have shown that 47% of the black electorate stated they would never vote for a Republican while 81% stated they would seldom or never vote for a Republican. By any measure, those are very huge odds to overcome. | Read More »
