I have been enjoying the respite from the Obama Daily Outrages that had been jammed down our throats for the first 18 months of Obama's presidency. We now possess a legislature that would rather vacate than legislate. Would that they could have vacated their offices just before destroying the greatest health care system in the world. Obama has attempted a fundamental transformation of the United States, and with luck, we shall have it. Only not in the way Obama imagines. My hope is that the conservative resurgence will do Reagan one better. Maybe we can make progress back to the original intent of the constitution. Wouldn't it be great if we could end all declared states of emergency so that the president would stop legislating via executive orders? I hope we can defund and defang Obamacare before more hospitals go under.

I hope the dems don't damage their party any further by lame duck shenanigans. Jamming more hateful legislation down our throats will not win them elections. Not now, and not anytime soon. Maybe not until a new generation of youngsters is re-educated.

Best comment I have read all week:
“Let me put this bluntly: virtually no one in America gives a damn what Barack Obama says about anything at this point. What could be more predictable, and less interesting, than Obama’s opinion on any given subject? Who wants to contemplate the economic wisdom of a guy who looted the Treasury for a trillion dollars, with less benefit than we could have achieved by stuffing hundred dollar bills into random cereal boxes? Who’s excited to hear about the next plan to convert taxpayer dollars into Democrat campaign funds? Who’s hungry for another hour of tedious excuses about permanently broken markets and the titanic dead hand of George W. Bush? Who wants a lecture on ethical business practices from the titular head of the party that gave us Charlie Rangel and Maxine Waters? What use is another hollow foreign-policy speech from a man who sees no global adversary to rival the menace of Arizona? Even Obama’s supporters don’t hear anything he says any more. There’s nothing left to hear.”

Just goes to show. Even Obama's supporters are exhausted trying to defend him. Via RCP and Gateway Pundit.

Does everybody know about Fuzzy Slippers? She is one of the finest small blog writers on the internet, as far as I'm concerned. And she inspired me again this morning. I, like her, could not stomach watching Obama's speech last night. She caught it later on video, and I did not. She gave an excellent play-by-play. And one part touches on something that reminds me of a pet peeve of mine.

Impeachable offenses. That's right, I said it. Let's make a nice list, so the new congress elected in November will have an easier time getting started.

Seizure of private industry. Can somebody tell me where in the U.S. Constitution the government is authorized to seize private industry? The auto companies were not only taken lawlessly, but the company stocks were forcibly taken from preferred stockholders and given to Obama's cronies in the unions.  Is this America? How can this stand. Obama and his henchmen should be in jail for theft.

Add to that the takeover of the banks. How is it OK for Obama to force a bailout on healthy banks, then use this as an excuse to dictate business practices? Where in the Constitution is this activity authorized?

Do we even have a Constitution anymore? Or is it just a museum piece? Our forefathers and Oathkeepers fought and died for it. For our freedom.  Freedom from tyrannical government.

And now some Americans talk of taking over British Petroleum. Can anyone explain to me how an American president would go about taking over a British company? How is this even feasible? Or would it involve seizing American assets? How is this legal? Or even wise given the current situation? We need BP to help stop the gusher, clean up the mess and compensate damaged Americans. How would a government takeover help? It would put Americans on the hook for all of that. This can only make sense to a dedicated Marxist.

The Sestak affair may prove to be Obama's undoing. But impeaching Obama based on bribery will be like putting Al Capone in jail for tax evasion. Effective, but misses his more gross violations.

Either way, concrete regulations need to be put in place where any candidate for president needs to submit proof that he is a natural born citizen. Even incumbent candidates. Ha. That will fix Obama's little red wagon....

Two articles came out this week explaining what the scuttlebutt is in the Chicago gay district. This story at MindBodyPolitic explains how Obama is linked with a number of men, some of whom are employed at the White House. The article is from Wayne Madsen Report, a subscription service, put out on the blogosphere by the Jag Hunter. The blackmail vulnerability of Obama and Rahm Emmanuel is a vulnerability for our country.

I mean it. Who does he think he is to tell us we cannot handle our tech devices and that we cannot tell what ranks high on the "truth-meter" or not. And whose truth meter are we talking about. HIS? Because if it were up to him, Fox News would disappear off the cable networks. Rush, Hannity and Levin would disappear off of the air waves. Conservative bloggers would disappear off of the internet. Huffington Post would be required morning reading.

Obama said: "Meanwhile, you're coming of age in a 24/7 media environment that bombards us with all kinds of content and exposes us to all kinds of arguments, some of which don't rank all that high on the truth meter. With iPods and iPads; Xboxes and PlayStations; information becomes a distraction, a diversion, a form of entertainment, rather than a tool of empowerment. All of this is not only putting new pressures on you; it is putting new pressures on our country and on our democracy."

This guy is SO transparent. He hates us and he gets his digs in when he can. He was speaking in front of a group of new graduates and wanted to warn them about us purveyors of information. Be careful, Little Red Riding Hood, don't talk to strangers. They might not have your best interest at heart. They might be a...a....heaven forbid, a distraction!

The techies have this issue all wrong. Obama could care less who uses what tech device. I Pad, I Pod, x-boxes. He doesn't want them having access to "unfiltered" opinions on the internet. Some of which don't meet HIS idea of truth. That was his real message and I think Fidel Castro would be proud. Not to mention Chavez.

"Nothing too exciting but since this is as irritable as we’re likely to see President Spock get, it qualifies as fun enough for a late-night palate cleanser. Things start hopping around two minutes in and then again at five minutes in." Click HERE to see the video.

Actually, I had been curious about this fundraiser since I live in the So. Cal. area. I have to say it gives me a chuckle to see him heckled by his base. So sorry to see things not going smoothly (not).

A pretty little girl named Suzy was standing on the sidewalk in front of her home. Next to her was a basket containing a number tiny creatures; in her hand was a sign announcing FREE KITTENS.

Suddenly a line of big black cars pulled up beside her. Out of the lead car stepped a tall, grinning man.

"Hi there, little girl, I'm President Obama. What do you have in the basket?" he asked.

"Kittens," little Suzy said.

"How old are they?" asked Obama.

Suzy replied, "They're so young, their eyes aren't even open yet."

"And what kind of kittens are they?"

"Democrats," answered Suzy with a smile.

Obama was delighted. As soon as he returned to his car, he called his PR chief and told him about the little girl and the kittens.

Recognizing the perfect photo op, the two men agreed that the president should return the next day, and, in front of the assembled media, have the girl talk about her discerning kittens.

So the next day, Suzy was again standing on the sidewalk with her basket of "FREE KITTENS" when another motorcade pulled up, this time followed by vans from ABC, NBC, CBS and CNN.

Cameras and audio equipment were quickly set up, then Obama got out of his limo and walked over to little Suzy.

"Hello, again," he said, "I'd love it if you would tell all my friends out there what kind of kittens you're giving away."

"Yes sir," Suzy said. "They're Republicans."

Taken by surprise, the president stammered, "But... But... Yesterday, you told me they were DEMOCRATS."

Little Suzy smiled and said, "I know. But today, they have their eyes open."
