SECRET DEAL BETWEEN O AND BIG PHARMA COMPANIES UNRAVELING


In the most “transparent” administration in recent US history, yet another example of corruption has been uncovered. Apparently, Mr. Obama struck a deal with the big pharmaceutical companies in order to gain their support for passage of his abominable health care law. Cutting congress out of the process as much as possible, Mr. Obama promised them…what?

That is yet to be revealed. Further details of this corruption are promised. Whatever it is, it cannot have been good for the American people. It is ALWAYS good for Barack Obama. The stench from Washington DC gets worse. We must drain the swamp in November.

The non-news News

 

By Dr. Stephen Frueh

There is information delivered to us in bright red packages covered with glitter which, when opened, leaves us with a ‘is that all there is?’ response. I still can’t get over how much ‘news’ is not really news.

We have craftily combined a free enterprise strategy with the delivery of essential information and that strategy distorts and amplifies so that we have to be very careful how we take in what we take in. Two non-news items this week qualify – Mitt Romney’s high school bullying and Barack Obama’s view on gay marriage. [More...]

Politically Unacceptable (PU): More Observations from Captain Obvious

 

by Tucker Scofield

My wife has nicknamed me “Captain Obvious” because I often point out that which should be unmistakable to even the casual observer. But the origins of this annoying habit are rooted in the number of times the “obvious” has been completely overlooked by what seemed to be otherwise intelligent human beings. That being said, here are some political observations that should be obvious but may have escaped your attention somehow:

Spending. We are approaching $16 trillion in debt; $300 billion per year in waste, fraud, duplicity, and abuse has been identified and could be cut from our budget without reducing services at all, yet NEITHER political party will touch it!  Insanity, man. The lone voice in this wilderness is Senator Tom Coburn (R-OK) who has diligently kept this subject at the forefront of discussion every year since 2008.

Gas Prices. The price of gasoline has dropped some fifty cents/gallon recently, but don’t sigh in relief over the reduced cost of your summer vacation just yet. Prices will go up significantly over the next two months due to our idiotic policy of requiring “summer blends,” which vary wildly from state to state. [More...]

Paying off Wright is wrong!

 

By Michael Podwill  

Did the transparency king offer hush money?

Last Saturday, the New York Post reported extensively on charges that Obama made efforts to pay his old pal and erstwhile soul mate, Reverend Jeremiah Wright, some $150,000 to keep his big mouth shut during the 2008 campaign.

The details of this prospective payoff are offered in a book called “The Amateur,” penned by Arthur Edward Klein. In his book, Klein describes a purported Wright admission that Obama, through e-mails sent by “one of Barack’s closest friends,” did indeed offer that payment to ensure that Wright’s spigot of a foul and hateful mouth would stay firmly in “off position” so as not to harm Obama’s love affair with the gullible masses.  [More...]

The Rise of Black-on-White Violence

By Alan Caruba

The media and the usual race-mongers made sure that all of America knew about George Zimmerman’s killing of Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Florida on February 26. The local police initially did not arrest Zimmerman because it was an obvious case of self-defense.

There was no such outcry, however, when a month later on March 26 a 50-year-old white man was attacked and beaten with a hammer by two black teens, in Midway, Florida, just six miles from Sanford. The Orlando Sentinel published a description of the attackers, but neglected to mention their race. One of them had just finished a seventeen month prison sentence.

On May 9, the Star-Ledger of Newark, NJ published an article, “Group of 10 or 15 ‘thugs’ rob and beat 5 people following Prudential Center concert, cops say.” There was no reference to their race in the article and when I emailed the reporter for clarification, I received no response. [More...]

Obama’s fourth same sex change

 

By Michael Podwill  

I’ll say this for President Obama. He’ll throw anything he can, any kind of distraction, right in your face — all in his desperate, pathetic (and overwhelmingly transparent) effort to make us forget the real monstrosities that are his “programs,” that make for his damaging, dismal presidency.

The reality of Obama’s term is this: a moribund economy, a dispirited populace and an  increasingly tenuous position that America faces in this altogether perishable world. It’s a lot easier to ignore reality (ie: economic failure), and simply create one sideshow after another.  [More...]

The New Percent: Gays Are Here to Stay

By S. Devereaux Sanford

Follow: Facebook Twitter

It may have been politically risky for President Obama to come out supporting gay marriage; however the majority of Americans will side with him more and more as we get closer to the election.  In fact, according to a recent Gallup Poll fifty percent of Americans now believe same-sex marriages should be recognized by law giving gay couples the same legal rights as traditional marriages, and that number will continue to grow.

Counting Our Votes WHERE?

 

Allan Sanford

A European based company, SCYTL, will be collecting and counting our votes for president in…get this, Barcelona, Spain. On November 6th, our votes will travel electronically, between 3,000 and 6,000 miles from where they are cast in America, to Barcelona, Spain. So, even if Obama can’t use his ChicagoLand tactics to intimidate voters (a la the Black Panthers), and even if he can’t get at all the voting machines that will be used across the country, and even if he hasn’t been able to buy all the votes from illegal immigrants, unions, environmentalists, welfare and food stamp recipients, even even even, it won’t matter because he has thousands of electronic miles to access and change your vote between your finger and Spain, and maybe even after it gets there.

Gay Marriage is Obama’s Poison Pill

By Alan Caruba

Let the chatteratti and political pundits say what they will, dancing around the issue of gay marriage on Obama’s chances of reelection, but I will tell you plainly that he has swallowed a poison pill.

Gay marriage is a deal-breaker for a vast swath of American voters that includes Catholics as well as the black and Hispanic communities. Urbanites and suburbanites may say that are okay with gay marriage, but what they tell pollsters and what they say privately among friends and family is far different. Americans may want to be tolerant, but their distaste for the gay lifestyle and incessant demands for acceptance is deeply offensive to most people. [More...]

Politically Unacceptable (PU): IRS Paying Illegals HUGE Refunds!

 by Tucker Scofield

I want to thank two readers – Shaun and Linda – for almost causing my head to explode. No, no, they weren’t trying to kill me, just keep me informed by forwarding me a story. But their generosity almost caused me to stroke out.

I don’t mind telling you that my wife and I owe the IRS a large chunk of money, money we certainly don’t have. That’s over and above the $55K we’ve already paid the bastards through payroll deductions, mind you. The reasons for this are manifold and certainly some of it is our own damned fault. But this is the third year in a row that we’ve owed them a substantial amount of money and I’m pretty sick of it. [More...]

Obama chokes the goose

 

By Michael Podwill  

Some of us remember the solemn promise made by our know-it-all president early in his term. If we would but endorse his magical near trillion dollar “stimulus,” he swore to the heavens that America’s unemployment rate would never rise above 8%.

So much for an Obama promise.

In truth, unemployment has not gone below 8% since Obama’s famous “just trust me” moment, noteworthy only in that it’s among the first of many times he has inveigled, insinuated, disappointed, blamed, lied, disparaged and then pulled the rug out from under us.   [More...]

Romney’s Wealth

It just occurred to me, with all the noise the media is making
about Romney’s wealth, I don’t recall such bluster and
hand-wringing over the Kennedy fortune. Or, for that matter,
John Kerry’s. Or the fact that John Kerry gave virtually nothing
 to charity while Romney gave something on the order of $4 million.

Oh, Wait. I just remembered; Romney is Republican.

Kerry and the Kennedys are Democrats.

Also, Romney worked for his money.

Kennedy inherited his.
And Kerry married it.

Never mind…

Nothing to see here folks.

Prez’s Kid Takes $2.5 Million Break in Mexico

Since when do 13 year old girls go to Mexico for Spring Break without their Parents along? Daughter of the President aside; that we the taxpayers are picking up the tab?  This has GOT TO BE the crown jewel in the Imperial Presidency of Barack and Michelle!  Some real classy PARENTS we have there folks; let’s send them back to Chicago where they can’t hurt the rest of us any more than they already have. Do we need a better reason that this one to make this a one term affair?  You were probably not aware because the news media has not and will not report this; but that’s another subject. Obama’s 8th grade, 13 year old daughter, took a few of her girl classmates on spring break to Mexico; and oh; almost forgot the best part; with 25 secret servicemen. Estimated cost of this spring break trip- $2.5 million!  Doesn’t that give you a warm and fuzzy feeling that your tax dollars are being spent so wisely ? Does this really surprise anyone?
AND YOU SAY, “SURELY THIS CAN’T BE TRUE.

It’s True. Check “Malia Obama to Mexico” on Snopes.

Obama’s Literary Agent in 1991 Booklet: “Born in Kenya and Raised in Indonesia and Hawaii

Note from Senior Management:

Andrew Breitbart was never a “Birther,” and Breitbart News is a site that has never advocated the narrative of “Birtherism.” In fact, Andrew believed, as we do, that President Barack Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, on August 4, 1961.

Yet Andrew also believed that the complicit mainstream media had refused to examine President Obama’s ideological past, or the carefully crafted persona he and his advisers had constructed for him.

It is for that reason that we launched “The Vetting,” an ongoing series in which we explore the ideological background of President Obama (and other presidential candidates)–not to re-litigate 2008, but because ideas and actions have consequences.

It is also in that spirit that we discovered, and now present, the booklet described below–one that includes a marketing pitch for a forthcoming book by a then-young, otherwise unknown former president of the Harvard Law Review. 

It is evidence–not of the President’s foreign origin, but that Barack Obama’s public persona has perhaps been presented differently at different times. [More...]

Terrorism & the Exceptional Individual

By Scott Stewart

Reprinted from www.Stratfor.com

There has been a lot of chatter in intelligence and academic circles about al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) bombmaker Ibrahim al-Asiri and his value to AQAP. The disclosure last week of a thwarted AQAP plot to attack U.S. airliners using an improved version of an “underwear bomb” used in the December 2009 attempted attack aboard a commercial airplane and the disclosure of the U.S. government’s easing of the rules of engagement for unmanned aerial vehicle strikes in Yemen played into these discussions. People are debating how al-Asiri’s death would affect the organization. A similar debate undoubtedly will erupt if AQAP leader Nasir al-Wahayshi is captured or killed. [More...]

Screwed in 2013, AFTER the Election

The National Association of REALTORS is all over this and working to get it repealed, before it takes effect.  But, I am very pleased we aren’t the only ones who know about this ploy to steal billions from unsuspecting homeowners.  How many REALTORS do you think will vote Democratic in 2012?

Did you know that if you sell your house after 2012 you will pay a 3.8% sales tax on  it?  That’s $3,800 on a $100,000 home.  When did this happen?  It’s in the health care bill and goes into effect in 2013.

Why 2013?  Could it be to come to light AFTER the 2012 elections?  So, this is “change you can believe in”?  Under the new health care bill all real estate transactions will be subject to a 3.8% Sales Tax. [More...]

Report: Obama Campaign Offered Hush Money to Silence Rev. Wright

Sunday, 13 May 2012

From Newsmax.com

A new, unauthorized biography of President Obama by Edward Klein claims supporters close to then-candidate Barack Obama attempted to pay off firebrand minister Jeremiah Wright during the 2008 campaign.

At the time, Wright’s angry, often anti-American sermons were threatening to do serious damage to Obama’s candidacy. Obama was ultimately forced to confront it by formally leaving Wright’s church and talking about race in a major speech. [More...]

What Else You Don’t Know About Obama Boyhood

President tied to Bill Ayers’ radical leftist organization from age 11

WND EXCLUSIVE

by Aaron Klein

Editor’s note: In 2008, WND thoroughly vetted Barack Obama’s radical background. Many of those original exclusive reports, almost entirely ignored by the establishment news media, currently are being utilized four years later by some media outlets in the lead up to this year’s presidential election. From now until Election Day, WND will present original investigations into Obama and his radical ties with bonus updates.

Although the Washington Post this past week featured an extensive profile of Mitt Romney’s high school days, which alleged the presidential hopeful engaged in bullying, the news media has yet to probe important aspects of Obama’s early education that may evidence later radical ties. [More...]

Franklin Graham: Obama Has ‘Shaken His Fist’ at God

Reprinted from www.Newsmax.com

Thursday, 10 May 2012 01:00 PM

By Andra Varin

Evangelist Franklin Graham said President Barack Obama has “shaken his fist at God” by voicing support for gay marriage. In an interview Wednesday with ABC News, Obama said his opinions had evolved and he now believes same-sex couples should have the right to wed.
“At a certain point, I’ve just concluded that for me personally it is important for me to go ahead and affirm that I think same-sex couples should be able to get married,” Obama said.

Graham, son of the Rev. Billy Graham, said the president was defying God’s will by changing his opinion on the issue. [More...]

Our Liberal vs. Our Conservative

The DC Post loves a good discussion. We always invite our readers to wade in and express themselves on any issue, from any political point of view. Here’s a great Email exchange which just took place between our Liberal writer, Shannon Sanford, and one of our rambunctious Conservatives, Tucker Scofield. 
Let’s eavesdrop. Tucker is in black type, Shannon red:
Hi Tucker – below are some answers:
hi Shannon,
I have a couple of questions that I’m looking to you for answers:
  •  I put  “Romney’s stance on gay marriage” into my search bar. I thought Romney’s stance was to support gay unions with the same rights as a married couple but to maintain the definition of marriage as between a man and a woman.  Do you know something I don’t on this??  (I’m not asking a loaded question, I really don’t know).

Obama signs new Executive Order for U.S. to follow global economic regulations

(From The DC Post: there is a Bill of Impeachment of Barack Obama which is currently moving through congress. A short while ago Obama signed an Imperial Order that bound the US to have to go to an international body for permission to defend itself militarily or to go to any war with anyone anywhere. This is a job given to our Congress by the Constitution. It has been taken away from us by a president intent on destroying American sovereignty in every aspect of our lives).

Vice President Biden’s gay-marriage gaffe is mess for White House

If Vice President Biden continues to make public appearances during this campaign, White House press secretary Jay Carney should be offered a membership in the janitors’ union.

As things stand, the spokesman does not have the supplies necessary to clean up the mess Biden made in his appearance Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” Biden gave his full support to same-sex marriage — a position conspicuously at odds with the public stance of his boss, President Obama, who is widely assumed to share Biden’s views but who says that his own thinking is “evolving.” [More...]
