From the Occupy Myself Movement, an absurd and sappy video warning us that women will not be denied anything because, lo and behold, they are women.
Here is yet another example of the gushing narcissism that is encouraged by BHO’s White House. (BTW: I’m surprised that Al Sharpton has not yet called the White House a racist building!)
BHO’s explicit message to Americans:
“America is all about equality and fairness, about getting what I want when I want it at any cost to someone else, about stealing from the rich and giving to the “poor.” America is all about creating a big intrusive government to make this happen for you, the Obama supporter.”
This is a twisted and perverse version of capitalism and the free market system and is eerily similar in motive to Wall St.’s “fat cats” “greedy” motives that BHO hubristically denounces. Why the hypocrisy, Mr. Obama?
I find it completely ironic that the proponents of Left (Progressives and Democrats) so want to help others with their pseudo-humanitarianism and talk of “fairness”, “fairness”, “blah, blah, blah”, that each of the Left’s namby-pamby “afflicted” groups starts by helping themselves, forgetting that someone else has to unfairly pay for their desired self-absorbed utopian lifestyle.
The best thing for this video would be to deny it the oxygen of publicity.
BTW: Who is denying you anything, ma’am? Who is telling you what to do, ma’am? If someone was telling you what to do would you even hear them?
BHO is so forward thinking (and narcissistic) that he chases his own tail right to his own straw man conclusion.
Below is a March 15th, 2012 You-Tube video showing BHO in true form: a professional politician pompously using straw man arguments to make a supposedly erudite point about his political agenda while poking fun at Republican candidates.
BHO portrays himself as the elite “green” technocrat. He postures himself as someone who can lead us boldly where no man has gone before – down the path of green energy to freedom from our slavery to fossil fuels. BHO wants you to follow the “green” brick road but this path leads directly to him, the Wizard behind the White House curtains. Don’t go there. You won’t get what you are looking for – you already have it.
Who is BHO talking about when he says “folks running for a certain office, who shall go unnamed. They’ve been talking down new sources of energy.”? Certainly he is not referring to any of the Republican candidates. None of them have said any such thing (see Gingrich video below). But of course BHO already knows that you only listen to BHO and his shills via the main stream media.
The Republican candidates have, in fact, denounced throwing good money (our tax-payer money) after bad to promote “green energy projects and companies who will in turn promote a BHO “green energy” presidency. These companies include most notably the bankrupt Solyndra.
And why is BHO talking about green energy and not about jobs? Because he knows that environmentalists and progressives will fill his campaign coffers and BHO doesn’t want to you think about his job’s record. He doesn’t want to go there. He’d rather chide Republicans for not being “green” minded like he is. The greenest part of BHO, though, is his envy of other’s power.
Wind power? Solar energy? Bio-fuels? Algae? Why not talk about nuclear power, the most effective source of clean power we can generate? Instead, what we have now is a Jane Fonda-esque president!
I work in the Power Industry. Because of my confidentiality agreement with the company I work for I am forbidden to talk about my work in detail. Suffice it to say, though, that wind power and solar power are miniscule generators of power and are mostly irrelevant to power generation. Nuclear power, on the other hand, is a tremendous generator of energy. And, fossil fuels, abundant in our own country, have been cleaned up. They can be transported safely and efficiently throughout our country. Fossil fuels will also provide many thousand of jobs and secure our nation. But, BHO will not go there.
BHO wants the “green” ticket to ride to the 2012 presidency. He doesn’t care that it will cost the taxpayer his own “green” money (e.g., Solyndra) to get him there.
BHO chides the Republicans when he says that unlike them he and the American people have “faith in the future”. Well, there certainly is enough dried bull shit in this line to fuel all the stoves of the former Russian gulags.
BHO goes on to make Rutherford B. Hayes a straw man. BHO lies, he cajoles, he plies you with his “green” is good BS. In the end, though, the only green wind power you’ll ever get out of a BHO presidency is what comes out of both ends of BHO.
The previous post showed a Wisconsin Democrat and union boss who has been cyber stalking a Wisconsin State Senator. He called her “a pig”, in fact.
This post reveals an African-American Tea Party member who ran away from the Democrat’s Party’s Plantation politics: C.L. Bryant.
Keep in mind that the main stream media (practically every TV/cable media outlet other than Fox news) will depict and propagandize Tea Party members as being racist.
Because liberals, the Left, Progressives and Democrats have nothing constructive to offer they resort to name calling, ad hominems and distortion. The denigrating of people’s character, in fact, is used to get themselves elected – they get others to believe and respond to their inflammatory rhetoric. And this is exactly why Obama is in the White House (via the dirty politics of Rahm Emmanuel and David Axelrod). As everyone knows, Obama was not elected because of a political record or because of experience. He was elected because of intimidation politics played out Chicago Style.
This way of politics can also be found in the state of Wisconsin which borders Illinois.
One example of dirty politics used by the Democrats (and there are many such examples) from the Badger Pundit:
…Obamacare in the light of day: “…the bill is substantially more expensive– twice as much as the original $900 billion price tag.” (emphasis mine)
Move over Greece, Portugal and Europe. The US will join you soon with its own version of bankruptcy, a bankruptcy due to the ill-advised actions of Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Barack Hussein Obama and the Democrat Party.
What good is democracy when you use it to f— yourself and others!
Democrats like to think of themselves as touchy-feely people who care about things (“things” being the operative word). The “things” they care about are rights, animals, abortion (a fetus is a “thing” to them), licentiousness and the environment. They are so focused on how their world is affected by these “things” that the never look beyond their own stage one thinking to see the consequences of their voting actions. They shoot themselves and others in the foot when they elect politicians who pass bills which do so much more harm than good.
A vote for Obama and the Democrats in the 2012 elections will keep the continuum of STUPID in place.
***
That was the bad news. Here is the worse news, as reported by the CBO (emphasis mine):
“Obama’s budget would increase the size of the national debt held by the public from $10.1 trillion today to $18.8 trillion in 2022, according to CBO. “
You can decide for yourself the difference between a man like Rep. Allen West and the likes of Jesse Jackson Jr., Al Sharpton, Jeremiah Wright, Cornel West and their ilk.
I would like to think that the American voter is trying really hard to make a go of it in this oppressive economic climate created by Obama and the Democrats. I would like to think this is the case but I have also come across another kind of voter: the life’s victim-voter.
This victim-voter, because of their constantly reinforced victim status, is basically mush – a supine non-thinker who asks government to bail them out of life’s difficulties, out of life’s pain and losses. Instead of pursuing happiness though hard work this voter demands that government guarantee that their life will be easy and trouble-free. They say to themselves: “Life is hard. If God won’t take away our pain we’ll make government do it.” They may also argue, “Others are doing it why don’t I.”
It is this same victim–voter who continually seeks the balm of government hand-outs. The same victim–voter will instantly and freely give up their liberty for the license to be a perpetual needy victim. And, at the same time, this type of voter will seek to impose government restrictions on others thus fulfilling their need to keep others under control and/or paying the bill.
Now I wonder, do these same voters just want to go about their lives doing their art, taking self-photos to post on Facebook, watching crap TV and movies, surfing the internet, smoking, drinking, tattoo-ing and living a life apart from the having to deal with reality? (I would like to write about other things but our nation is being dismantled by Obama and the progressive movement.)
Now, why is Obama telling you and me what to do? Why is Obama, as announced recently, giving us a compromise regarding contraception? Why is he involved at all in this very personal conversation? He and the Dems need to get the hell out of our lives. They are absolutely intrusive, overreaching and becoming more totalitarian by the minute.
Ask yourself: “Why is Barack Obama involved in my personal stuff? ”
Why does the government need to be intimate with the details of my medical records? Of my earnings? Of my life?
Why is BHO telling me how much I can have?
Why did Barack Obama tell the world that we are not a Christian nation?
Why does Obama pick and choose who wins and who loses? (think car companies, unions and big banks)
Why is Barack Obama trying to create a climate of discontent? A climate of covetousness? Of envy?
Why does Barack Obama conflate Scripture (“to whom much is given, much is required”) with class warfare? (Why, brother Obama, sow discord and disharmony among the brethren? Perhaps you are a wolf in sheep’s clothing!)
Why is AG Eric Holder allowing the Black Panthers a pass on voter intimidation? Or, allowing guns to be sold to drug dealers which in turn kill our own officers?
Why is Michelle Obama telling me what I should eat?
Why did Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats pass a national health care bill and then say “we had to pass the bill to find out what was in the bill?”
Why are dictatorial judges (think 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, San Francisco) ignoring the Constitution in their legal decisions? Why are the rules changing for special interest groups?
Why did Ruth Bader Ginsburg (now in the SCOTUS) say that Egypt should have a different Constitution than the Constitution of the most free and Democratic republic in the world? Does RBG not like the Constitution under which she is to make her rulings? She should recuse herself and retire Jan 2nd, 2013.
Obama and the Dem’s progressive overreach: Health care, contraception, faith, marriage, the family, earnings, investments, inheritance money, what you eat, omnipresent and oppressive regulations and…
“Hope and Change.” These words, verbal promissory notes to the militant Left during the 2008 presidential campaign, are code words replacing “Progressivism and radicalism.” The 2008 election of BHO, as I see it, became the beginning of the end for America, an America once of the people, by the people and for the people. Our country is now being radicalized, being rewired into a dystopian matrix of parallel connections all wired and channeled to a small political ruling class of elites. (Think Obama’s czars. Think the EU – the European Union.)
Why would BHO trash America? Because he and those like him believe they have a better way for you to go – a hopey and changey pablum kind of way – a way we are told that transcends God, the church, race, gender and economics. We are told that this “better way” transcends everyone and everything and for your own good. The inference being here that we the people are too stupid, too inept and out of control (read free) to live our lives without the better “Way.”
The Hope and Change Lie has been told and re-told. Those who voted for Obama in 2008 believed that the world would be a better place (?) if BHO was in the White House. Without a denial of the facts, the effect of his presidency and the Democrat majority Senate has been the destruction of our nation’s economy, an encouragement to blatantly disregard the American Constitution, the torching of American exceptionalism (read flag) and the implementation of a scorched earth ideology that replaces everything in its path with the word “Fair” – fairness as defined by an elite group of people.
You, the voter, get a say for now but soon your say will be silenced by this political ruling class and the increasing murmur of illegal immigrants entering our country. The value of your own interests or concerns, once your own business, will soon be decided by the Obama government. Remember, you are thought to be too stupid to act for your own good. Sadly, I think there are, as I have mentioned above, victim-voters who quickly acquiesce because they don’t want to think about what it takes to live this life. They, instead, want Obama and the Democrats make their life decisions for them.
We are repeatedly told by the Obama-led progressives that we need this change so that we as a nation of diverse people and needs can get along fairly, equally. BHO sees himself as the champion of the little guy. He will, in fact, promote himself as such for the 2012 presidential campaign. But, you should know that he is walking up the ladder of ascendant power on the backs of the little guys.
What I have also seen is that Barack Obama seeks to create strife among the races (race “carding” any dissent; think Al Sharpton, MSNBC and the media); strife among economic groups (class warfare), strife among workers (union and non-union); strife among church and state; strife among people of every stripe and color. He does so in order to promote himself as the gentle, wise old black man (a Morgan Freeman-like narcissistic typecasting) to help the poor embattled nation (now at odds in its Barack Obama-incited civil war). Obama creates the problem and then reveals himself (the “level-headed” One) as the solution to the problem. And, it is this One who wants to bring “peace and harmony” to the nation ala Abe Lincoln (more narcissistic typecasting). Barack Obama is politically motivated to play you and this nation at every level in order to build his tower of Babel overlooking his constructed world. Many let him do it. But why?
What is now truly transcendent is the totalitarianism of Barack Obama and the federal government. And, the over-reach continues: Obama will feign moral high ground when he opines professorially “we (the political elite) know best, we are above the bickering.” This is the Hope and Change Lie re-packaged to encourage supine surrender to the elitist tyranny.
The voter must be ever vigilant against the totalitarianism of sincere motives in the hands of a few. Some of you bought the lie in 2008. It is almost too late. The Lie, with its ring of totalitarian power, must be thrown into the fires of Mount Doom and be forever destroyed.
(I have flavored this post with plenty of metaphors in hopes of giving the reader a bitter taste of what is happening to our liberty under Obama.)
“The Tea party Movement is nourished by a very American creed, namely that governments don’t have the answers, that reform comes from below, that people are wiser than their leaders.” British MEP Daniel Hannan in The New Road to Serfdom: A letter of Warning to America
I have noticed a definite pattern emerging ever since before the 2008 election of BHO: many voters have given up thinking and have decided to vote for the popular shills of humanism, otherwise known as the educated elite.
BHO, the POTUS, is surrounded by Harvard grads, each of whom has been steeped in liberal mores taught by educators who have risen to the level of their incompetence (the Peter Principle). I like what Tomas Sowell, economist, said about these professors:
“Too often what are called “educated” people are simply people who have been sheltered from reality for years in ivy-covered buildings. Those whose whole careers have been spent in ivy-covered buildings, insulated by tenure, can remain adolescents on into their golden retirement years.”[1]
“People who denounce the free market and voluntary exchange, and are for control and coercion, believe they have more intelligence and superior wisdom to the masses. What’s more, they believe they’ve been ordained to forcibly impose that wisdom on the rest of us. Of course, they have what they consider good reasons for doing so, but every tyrant that has ever existedhas had what he believed were good reasons for restricting the liberty of others.”
In my estimation the American voter, though often degreed, has become less educated and intellectually apathetic. This voter has become a stage-one thinker – someone who finds some humanist value in a policy, votes for the person promoting it and doesn’t want to think any further about it, believing that they have done their good deed for the day. Yet, the policy does not operate in isolation and, typically, havoc and damage control ensues when the policy is implemented. Our nation is left ever more crippled. The Minimum Wage Law (MWL) is one prime example of this stage one thinking implemented and voted for by people who let others do their thinking.
Thomas Sowell in his excellent book the Thomas Sowell Reader, a compendium of his many newspaper articles and essays, wrote an article titled Minimum Wage Laws. Here are some of his thoughts from that article to ponder deeply before the next election:
“By the simplest and most basic economics, a price artificially raised tends to cause more to be supplied and less to be demanded than when process are left to be determined by supply and demand in a free market.”[2]
“The unemployed are made idle by wage rates artificially set above the level of their productivity. Those who are idled in their youth are of course delayed in acquiring the job skills and experience which could make them more productive – therefore higher earner – later on.”[3]
“Although most industrial societies have minimum wage laws, not all do. Switzerland and Hong Kong have been among the exceptions – and both have had very low unemployment rates.”[4]
“Higher costs for a given quantity and quality of labor tend to produce less employment, just as higher prices for other things tend to produce fewer sales. Moreover, higher costs in the form of mandated benefits have the same economic effect as higher costs in the form of minimum wage laws. The explicit minimum wage rate understates the labor costs imposed by European governments, which also mandates various employer contributions to pension plans and health benefits, among other things. Europe’s unemployment rates shot up when such government-mandated benefits to be for by employers grew sharply during the 1980 and 1990s.”[5]
Average hourly compensation in Europe of manufacturing employees in the European Union countries in general is higher than in the United States or Japan. So is unemployment.”[6]
“Labor unions also benefit from minimum wage laws, are among the strongest proponents of such laws, even though their members typically make much more than minimum wage rate.”[7]
“Just as businesses seek to have government impose tariffs on imported goods that compete with their products, so labor unions use minimum wage laws as tariffs to force up the price of non-union labor that competes with their members for jobs.”[8]
“…when all is said and done, most empirical studies indicate that minimum wage laws reduce employment in general, and especially the employment of younger less skilled, and minority workers.”[9] (emphasis mine)
Thomas Sowell’s article is chock full of empirical information and common sense economics. I could continue to quote many of his insightful words. I’ll provide one more series of quotes about minorities and the implementation of MWLs the past century:
“Again, it is necessary to note how price is a factor even in racial discrimination…It was only after a series of minimum wage escalations began that black male teenage unemployment not only skyrocketed but became more than double the unemployment rates among white male teenagers.”[10] (emphasis mine)
Stage-one voting creates unemployment. Obama, the educated One, Jesse Jackson and the Congressional Black Caucus should know the facts. But in ignoring the economic data they choose “navel-gazing, hand-wringing or self-dramatization” to preach a Liberal Utopia that will never arrive on this earth. MWLs produce the opposite effect, in fact!
Don’t ignore the data. Read. Understand. Think beyond stage-one. Uncle Sam needs You more than ever.
Again, Thomas Sowell:
“People who cannot be bothered to learn both sides of the issues should not bother to vote.”[11]
[1] Thomas Sowell, The Thomas Sowell Reader, p. 401
Note: Mitt Romney has come out in favor of auto-increasing the MWL. I am voting Newt Gingrich in the Illinois GOP primary.
Update: In a 02/07/2012 RCP article regarding Mitt Romney’s faux conservatism, Thomas Sowell said:
“Nor are such consequences of minimum wage laws peculiar to blacks or to the United States. In Western European countries whose social policies liberals consider more “advanced” than our own, including more generous minimum wage laws and other employer-mandated benefits, it has been common in even prosperous years for unemployment rates among young people to be 20 percent or higher.
The economic reason is not complicated. When you set minimum wage levels higher than many inexperienced young people are worth, they don’t get hired. It is not rocket science.
Milton Friedman explained all this, half a century ago, in his popular little book for non-economists, “Capitalism and Freedom.” So have many other people. If a presidential candidate who calls himself “conservative” has still not heard of these facts, that simply shows that you can call yourself anything you want to. “
We must de-centralize government and return the power to the states and more importantly to the individual. Obama, his czars and the entrenched government bureaucracies do NOT know what is best for you and me or for our “huddled masses yearning to breathe free.”
The video below is Herman Cain endorsing Newt Gingrich to be the Republican nominee for President.
Newt, after noting the differences between himself other nominee candidates and Barack Hussein Obama and after speaking about his first week’s agenda in the White House, speaks about “the spirit of Pioneering…the New Age of Exploration…big people and dreams…our problems are not the people, they are…
Obama and the Dems want to bring everyone down to the same “bottom-feeder” level called “fair”. In lieu of a good record to extol, Obama’s campaign plea is take more money from the so-called 1% and then to redistribute the money according to some vague notion of fairness to the 99%. Obama is not about wealth creation. Obama is about wealth redistribution. Obama doesn’t want to make the pie bigger. Obama wants to slice the pie into smaller slices. Obama and the Dems don’t create wealth, they syphon off wealth by all manner of taxation. The Dems also build casinos or as I call them, shell games, to gain revenue money from the fools who happily play their life away hoping to “Win the Future” (a Obama campaign mantra). And with no money yet in hand Obama, the snake-oil salesman he is, makes financial promises to his base (e.g., college kids, unions, banks, etc.) and does so without regard for the taxpayer who would foot the bill.
After destroying America’s financial future his first term with bailouts to his cronies and the passing of Obamacare, Obama now seeks a second term to continue the pillaging process. Obama is hell-bent on wiping the American slate clean with a rag he calls “Hope” and then spray painting his own perverse ideological graffiti, “Change”, on the walls of history. For Obama and his posse the U.S. Constitution is just another authority to hold in contempt. This is Obama as Ludicrous, a political class gangsta member from Chicago with the same old denigrating street rap – “I’m for me and my crew. The rest can go to f___ themselves.
Think about this. Do you really want someone defining fairness? Do you really want someone to pick and chose who wins and who loses? Do you really think that government will stop private property encroachment (taxes) with the 1%? Once you give government the rights to your pocketbook (healthcare included) you lose complete control of it regardless of your democratic representation.
Now for social gospel junkies, this type of ideology is nowhere near Christianity – robbing Peter to pay Paul. For the voter, this socialist ideology is nothing other than giving him a false hope of security wrapped in yesterday’s newspaper. It certainly smells like day-old fish.
True conservatives like myself want everyone to have an opportunity to succeed, to rise up to a new level called “personal success.” Think about this: if your money is being taxed away to feed a socialist’s irrational vision than you have less money to provide for your family, less money to build a successful business, less money for charity. Government becomes the focus of your life – not God, family, friends or the needy.
A vote for Obama will bring you and your family down to a new low and will suck the life out of our nation. His re-election would move our country from constitutionalism to despotism. If you vote for that you deserve it.
This next presidential election we must not put our votes out to the “hope and change” pasture. We must think and choose wisely. Just say “No” to the stupor inducing drug called socialism and its street-corner salesman Obama.

I Will Not Be Denied Showing You This Nonsense
March 21, 2012 Leave a comment
From the Occupy Myself Movement, an absurd and sappy video warning us that women will not be denied anything because, lo and behold, they are women.
Here is yet another example of the gushing narcissism that is encouraged by BHO’s White House. (BTW: I’m surprised that Al Sharpton has not yet called the White House a racist building!)
BHO’s explicit message to Americans:
“America is all about equality and fairness, about getting what I want when I want it at any cost to someone else, about stealing from the rich and giving to the “poor.” America is all about creating a big intrusive government to make this happen for you, the Obama supporter.”
This is a twisted and perverse version of capitalism and the free market system and is eerily similar in motive to Wall St.’s “fat cats” “greedy” motives that BHO hubristically denounces. Why the hypocrisy, Mr. Obama?
I find it completely ironic that the proponents of Left (Progressives and Democrats) so want to help others with their pseudo-humanitarianism and talk of “fairness”, “fairness”, “blah, blah, blah”, that each of the Left’s namby-pamby “afflicted” groups starts by helping themselves, forgetting that someone else has to unfairly pay for their desired self-absorbed utopian lifestyle.
The best thing for this video would be to deny it the oxygen of publicity.
BTW: Who is denying you anything, ma’am? Who is telling you what to do, ma’am? If someone was telling you what to do would you even hear them?
