This article is full of win. It nails every issue solidly. GOP, please focus on the economy and Obama’s track record with it.
Obama’s Great Recession
Our Chief-Story-Teller is claiming the US economy has improved since his inauguration. I wonder from which fortune cookie he pulled that nonsense. Then in June, he said: “the private sector is doing fine.” Sooner or later, OBama needs to hone in on the truth or get better at lying. Zen is not easy. It takes effort to attain nothingness.
Regardless of what Obama says, you will always have to unravel his fictional narrative. While he claims to have a “laser focus” on jobs, he also admits he sometimes forgets the impact of the recession. Todays walkaway: Regardless of his swag, the record show that the programs Obama has put in place have failed. Keynesianism doesn’t work, never has worked, and never will work.
For all of his talk about jobs and the economy, most of Obama’s economic and job ‘recovery’ speeches…

Richard Feynman on Government Pronouncements of Scientific Fact
I can think of way more than three reasons, but most voters who are currently inclined to vote for Obama won’t read that much. Best to stick with the most obvious three.
By Kevin Probst via Western Journalism
1. This administration’s sense of entitlement:
Obama has played over 100 rounds of golf since becoming president. He has taken or sent his family on more vacations than we can count. He has no concern about the fact that he does this on the taxpayer’s tab.
The General Services Administration threw a $823,000 party in Las Vegas. It is as if the ‘gods of the marketplace’ believe they deserve these extravagant parties, as if they are perks that go along with the job.
Defense Secretary Leon Panetta charges the American tax payer $32,000 weekly as he jets to California for the weekend.
This administration approved a ½ billion dollar gift to Solyndra before it went bankrupt. When Solyndra went bankrupt the cost was passed on to the American taxpayer.
2. This administration’s belief that they are above the law:
The U.S. Justice Department approved the…

At some point we have to wake up and realize that the men and women we have put in office have only one plan to handle any scandal or crisis…lie until you are caught, then delay your resignation as long as possible. Next on the sacking list should be none other than Eric Holder.
Matthew Boyle of the Daily Caller reports that the scandal plagued U.S. Assistant Attorney General Ronald Weich plans to resign his position soon. Weich, you may remember, is the author of the February 2011 now “withdrawn” letter to Senator Grassley falsely denying that the DOJ was aware of gunwalking.
Weich, who has served as Attorney General Eric Holder’s emissary in congressional communications, will become the next dean of the University of Baltimore School of Law in July, according to the National Law Journal.
The DOJ official is the same Holder deputy who falsely told Congress that neither the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives nor any part of the Department of Justice ever allowed illicit firearms to “walk” across the U.S.-Mexico border — even as contrary facts emerged from the investigation into Operation Fast and Furious.
On Feb. 4, 2011, Weich wrote to Congress that the idea that “ATF…

Scenes from a Beautiful Life: Heaven is Here
As I sat waiting to get a haircut today, I picked up a copy of the April 2nd issue of People Magazine. Normally I can’t read this rag. The stories it carries are about as substantive, uplifting, and palatable as watching back-to-back reruns of “The View” or “Judge Judy”. It’s the literary equivalent of daytime TV, full of tawdry, shallow, narcissistic navel gazing by celebrities, and photos of other also-ran celebs doing nothing of significance in the larger scheme of life, the Universe, and everything.
Then I turned to page 82 (it was a long wait) where a story entitled “Scenes from a Beautiful Life” caught my attention immediately. The couple featured in the piece, Christian and Stephanie Nielson, had been the subject of a video posted on Mormon.org by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The video had gone viral but had staying power judging by the number of times I kept seeing it pop up on mainstream social media sites I frequent.
And, for good reason. The story they tell of their freak plane crash (Christian is, or was, a private aviation enthusiast) and their being horribly burned and disfigured is a touching and heartbreaking example of the incredible adversity the most ordinary of people can find themselves enduring. The expectation of today’s popular culture environment would be that the formerly comely couple would lose interest in one another after losing their physical attractiveness. They smashed such low expectations by rekindling their marriage through a whole new courtship. They reconnected with their children, even though it wasn’t easy for the children or their parents, and became an even stronger family today than before.
As a fellow Mormon, everything about their story I could relate to. I could put myself in their shoes and wonder of I would react as valiantly as they did to their trials.
I hadn’t known that Stephanie was writing a book on her comeback. The book’s title is Heaven is Here. You can order it on Amazon.com.
Police still “stumped” by obvious Government Goon hit job on John P. Wheeler
Who is even mildly surprised that police still don’t have a clue as to who killed John P. Wheeler? They should either look harder and gear up to play in the big leagues of government-ordered assassination, or go home. Anyone persisting in the delusion that this was a random act of crime should disabuse themselves of the notion entirely.
Regardless of motive, opportunity, and method, the main thing every citizen should take from this, as well as anyone who works at the level of government in which Wheeler was involved, is to keep your head on a swivel.
But don’t think hiding your identity or working and speaking out in the shadows is going to be to your advantage. No. make yourself as public and, therefore, untouchable as possible. Make any sudden disappearance on your part an opportunity to erect an unmistakable signpost that your vanishing wasn’t coincidental, self-inflicted, or caused by a random act of violence. Set a deadman’s trigger that irrevocably and undeniably signals your government’s nefarious deeds to the world.
Prayers for Wheeler’s family as they wait for the cowards, who murdered one of our military’s own in cold blood, to confess their dirty deeds.
#OccupyWallStreet Loons Shut Down “Transparent” Document
UPDATE: As I was recently taken to task by a respected friend and OWS supporter over this post, I will admit that my dig below was below the belt and not helpful towards establishing a more United States of America. Apparently, Van Jones, former Green Czar and agitator for change, agrees. It is uncharacteristic of the Tea Party to be mean or unkind.
“If we can just be as warm and sharing and kind as the Tea Party, which one might suspect is a relatively low bar, we might be able to do something for our country,” Jones said Monday.
Can I get that on a t-shirt and a bumper sticker?
Further, he seems to have criticized the OWS movement:
“We went from hopey to mopey and forgot to build a movement in the middle,” Jones said.
He credited the Tea Party with building a “network” that operates without any individual leader. “There is no Tea Party. You can’t land at the airport here in D.C., and get in the cab and say ‘take me to Tea Party headquarters’,” he said.
Jones described the movement as an “upgrade” over what progressives had done.
“They use their charismatic leaders to build something bigger than any leader,” he said. “They talk rugged individualism, but they act collectively.”
By contrast, he said, “we talk collectively … but we have enacted the most individualistic strategy in the republic.”
Comedy gold like this doesn’t come along very often, so I am compelled to distribute it far and wide. The Occupy Wall Street nutters are pulling out all the stops. They are unmasking themselves for the naked Communists they are, taking off the gloves, pulling no punches, [insert your own idiom here]…
This time, they mean it. They’re going to have their collective cake and eat it, too. And there will always be more cake…coming from…somewhere…we think…
Behold, transparent Communism at work with this Google Doc (note the text in bold red at the top presently in conflict with Rule #4) that the Occupiers set forth as their founding document…a replacement for our Constitution, as it were. Thomas Jefferson had nothing on these geniuses.
Some examples of Things We Know Can’t Possibly Fail:
Have anti-discrimination laws (already in place). Get media to scrutinize companies that discriminate (many large firms actually tout their diversity and GLBT acceptance). Simplicity. This, of course, implies that the government would be in charge of all media, which should help with distributing such propaganda.
Disallow names on job applications ( http://www.workers.org/2005/us/racist-hiring-0630/ ).
Socialize undergraduate level college. Make failing impossible to assure that everyone has the same chance in the work place post-college.
Teach character building classes from grade one, measure success based on drive/cooperation/interactions with others, not only final outcome. Impose universal morality for parents who do not participate in raising their children. Remove children from households with parents who refuse to educate them properly. Provide for re-education of parents in how to properly raise their children for the happiness of the Party.
Impose import taxes and tariffs to reflect the externalized costs of cheap foreign labor. Smoot-Hawley then, Smoot-Hawley now, Smoot-Hawley forever.
Increase taxes on corporations that outsource American jobs.
“Public good” shall be defined by the current administration.
and on and on.
I admit, there are actually some things in this document that make sense. I’m very much against GMO-tainted foods because of the shortsightedness of such products and farming practices. Nature has a way of backhanding those who try to mess with food supply too much (famine, anyone?).
I agree, to a certain extent, with massive reform being needed in our public school system–making it work more like a free market than like a government monopoly, and turning the power of educating children back over to whom it belongs: the parents.
Also, it’s hard to tell which parts of the document are authentically “OWS” and which parts are sabotage, but having known several of the OWS types throughout my life, I’m erring on the side of truth being stranger than fiction.
