  • What are your Obama predictions?

    IF Obama is re-elected I predict

    1. The internet will come under greater government control .. using some divisive ploy. Watch for this

    **** Internet will come under strict government control so that the government can more fully control dis-information .. The left leaning media will be the only place to gather news. At that point they'll force Fox off the air and there will be no reliable source of information again... ever. The only thing you will ever hear about is what the government approves that you know.

    2. Some time in the next 4 years our government will completely bankrupt and as a result we will be seen as sitting targets to our enemies.

    3. Because our military will be so severely reduced and our economy is crushed the U.S. will probably suffer nuclear attack on a massive scale. The 2 party system will end. It will be a one party system with a dictator but not called a dictator

    4. We will no longer be a super power but will become part of the EU. This will be sold to the American people as a great benefit.

    5. We'll become a socialist nation.. once for all. No going back

    6. We'll suffer widespread poverty and hunger. Lack of clean drinking water will become a major issue.

    7. Disease will be on the rise

    8. Liberals will blame Bush

    9. Obama has signed more executive orders than any other U.S. president in history. Obama will get to use all those executive orders he signed in the case of the emergency that he fully expected to cause and carry out in his second term.

  • Why are there ONLY democrat moderators for the debates?

    BTW... 4 years ago.. same thing

    Isn't that just a tad partisan?

    4 AnswersElections9 years ago
  • Does it matter that tonight's moderator is a personal friend of the Obama's?

    One piece of interesting information is that Barack Obama was a guest at the moderator's wedding. ABC News' Martha Raddatz will serve as moderator, and in 1991, Barack Obama was in attendance at her wedding to then-husband Julius Genachowski. Obama later appointed Genachowski, a Harvard law school buddy, to head the Federal Communications Commission.

    As reported by the Daily Caller, ABC has tried to downplay the connect, but is it relevant?

    Irrelevant information? Put it this way: If Raddatz were a judge, she'd likely have to recuse herself from cases pertaining to the Obamas.

    We're not arguing that Raddatz will slant tonight's debate in the Obama campaign's favor -- any more than a member of Congress would automatically vote for an appropriation simply because it helps a campaign contributor. We are arguing that the public has a right to know the facts about Raddatz's relationship to the president.

  • Do you suffer from Obama delusions?

    Delusion characteristics -

    1.The patient expresses an idea or belief with unusual persistence or force.

    2.That idea appears to exert an undue influence on the patient's life, and the way of life is often altered to an inexplicable extent.

    3.Despite his/her profound conviction, there is often a quality of secretiveness or suspicion when the patient is questioned about it.

    Please take a moment to look over a few of these videos and determine for yourself if these people or perhaps maybe yourself is suffering from Obama Delusion. This maybe a treatable illness.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfhHHCXxVe4&feature...

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7x-wpc2TpoM

    4.The individual tends to be humorless and oversensitive, especially about the belief.

    5.There is a quality of centrality: no matter how unlikely it is that these strange things are happening to him, the patient accepts them relatively unquestioningly.

    6.An attempt to contradict the belief is likely to arouse an inappropriately strong emotional reaction, often with irritability and hostility.

    7.The belief is, at the least, unlikely, and out of keeping with the patient's social, cultural and religious background.

    8.The patient is emotionally over-invested in the idea and it overwhelms other elements of their psyche.

    9.The delusion, if acted out, often leads to behaviors which are abnormal and/or out of character, although perhaps understandable in the light of the delusional beliefs.

    10.Individuals who know the patient observe that the belief and behavior are uncharacteristic and alien.

    Is this really true? I really want to know if this is true. This is the scariest thing I've read so far. Does anyone have details on this? This is a terribly dangerous precedent to set.

    Barack Obama recently signed an amendment to Executive Order 12425. Obama’s amendment to Executive Order 12425 gives Interpol authorization to operate in the United States and exempts them from all U.S. laws.

  • Remember when Obama declared war on Libya?

    Remember when Obama declared war on Libya?

    I saw a few people ignorantly say that Obama avoids war at all cost. I would like to set that record straight by reminding Americans about March 2011

    The United States declared yet another unconstitutional war in the Middle East today when it launched a bevy of deadly Tomahawk cruise missiles at the sovereign state of Libya.

    Libya was carpet bombed on direct orders from Obama after our congress voted NOT to use military action against Libya.

    He does not have the authority to call for military action against other countries. The executive branch of the United States government, however, has engaged in this sort of unlawful and flagrant violation of the Constitution since the end of the Second World War.

    Congress recognizes no claimed power of the president to wage war outside of the War Powers Resolution. Congress passed the the War Powers Resolution in 1973 after Nixon illegally invaded Cambodia.

    In taking the country into a war with Libya, Barack Obama's administration is breaking new ground in its construction of an imperial presidency -- an executive who increasingly acts independently of Congress at home and abroad. Obtaining a U.N. Security Council resolution has legitimated U.S. bombing raids under international law. But the U.N. Charter is not a substitute for the U.S. Constitution, which gives Congress, not the president, the power "to declare war."

  • Have you seen Obama tax hikes?

    Try to look at this information objectively .. these are the facts for the Full List of Obamacare Tax Hikes:

    I have provided a link to the tax hikes but I want to bring a few of them into closer examination.

    All of these taxes are burdensome and many are directed at seniors.

    Note extra taxes in #4 and #12 on companies that develop new medications and companies that make medical devices.

    4. Tax on Innovator Drug Companies ($22.2 bil/Jan 2010): $2.3 billion annual tax on the industry

    imposed relative to share of sales made that year. Bill: PPACA; Page: 1,971-1,980

    12. Tax on Medical Device Manufacturers ($20 bil/Jan 2013): Medical device manufacturers employ

    360,000 people in 6000 plants across the country. This law imposes a new 2.3% excise tax. Exempts

    items retailing for <$100. Bill: PPACA; Page: 1,980-1,986

    _____________________________________________________________________________

    #6 is a tax specifically to Caucasians. This is a very odd tax...

    6. Tax on Indoor Tanning Services ($2.7 billion/July 1, 2010): New 10 percent excise tax on Americans

    using indoor tanning salons. Bill: PPACA; Page: 2,397-2,399

    _______________________________________________________________________________

    #9 This tax is for actually USING health insurance .. not just having it.

    9. Employer Reporting of Insurance on W-2 (Min$/Jan 2012): Preamble to taxing health benefits on

    individual tax returns. Bill: PPACA; Page: 1,957

    _______________________________________________________________________________

    #14 limits spending on disabled children. Government shouldn't have ANY say on how much care is needed for YOUR children! ONLY doctors should have the right to determine that!

    14. Flexible Spending Account Cap – aka “Special Needs Kids Tax” ($13 bil/Jan 2013): Imposes cap on

    FSAs of $2500 (now unlimited). Indexed to inflation after 2013. There is one group of FSA owners for

    whom this new cap will be particularly cruel and onerous: parents of special needs children. There are

    thousands of families with special needs children in the United States, and many of them use FSAs to

    pay for special needs education. Tuition rates at one leading school that teaches special needs children

    in Washington, D.C. (National Child Research Center) can easily exceed $14,000 per year. Under tax

    rules, FSA dollars can be used to pay for this type of special needs education. Bill: PPACA; Page: 2,388-

    2,389

    ___________________________________________________________________________

    #15 affects drug coverage for retirees...... why should you pay more taxes for medication at the time in your life when you have less money to buy them in the first place?

    15. Elimination of tax deduction for employer-provided retirement Rx drug coverage in coordination

    with Medicare Part D ($4.5 bil/Jan 2013) Bill: PPACA; Page: 1,994

    __________________________________________________________________________

    America is in for many VERY big changes if Obama stays in and they will effect you and your children and all of our lives forever and NOT for the best

  • How is Obama complicit with Libya's embassy murders?

    Crossing party lines to deliver a stunning rebuke to the commander in chief, the vast majority of the House voted Friday for resolutions telling President Obama he has broken the constitutional chain of authority by committing U.S. troops to the international military mission in Libya.

    In two votes — on competing resolutions that amounted to legislative lectures of Mr. Obama — Congress escalated the brewing constitutional clash over whether he ignored the founding document’s grant of war powers by sending U.S. troops to aid in enforcing a no-fly zone and naval blockade of Libya.

  • Did Obama's mid-east chickens come home to roost?

    The world has looked to the United States in vain for leadership on Iran's nuclear program. It has found a feckless and incompetent leader, whose delayed sanctions have had zero impact on the regime's pursuit of nuclear weapons. Obama's claims to have "isolated" the Tehran regime are belied by the non-aligned summit held there last month. The Obama Administration couldn't even persuade the U.N. Secretary General to skip the conclave. That's not soft power -- it's just soft.

  • Have you seen this interesting letter to Pelosi?

    I agree with everything he says. DO YOU?

    Dear Ms. Pelosi:

    I write to you out of utter disdain! You are as despicable and un-American as the traitor Jane Fonda.

    I am a soon to be 65 year-old who has voted in every state and local election since 1966. I have voted for both Republicans and Democrats alike. I have worked on campaigns for both Republicans and Democrats, white and black. I served the country that I love in Vietnam , as my son did in the Middle East . I was awarded two bronze stars. I have been involved in politics since age 6 when my father was campaign manager for a truly great American Congressman, Charles Raper Jonas, who worked for his constituents and his country, and was to be admired, unlike you.

    You obviously haven't read the Constitution recently, if ever, the Federalist Papers, or even David McCulloughs book on John Adams. You ought to take the time while riding around in your government provided luxury executive jet to do just that. You represent Socialistic and even Marxist principals that our founding fathers tried to avoid when setting out the capitalistic republican form of government represented by our Constitution.

    I find it interesting that you and your husband are multi-millionaires with much of your fortune being made as a result of your public service. You have controlled legislation that has enhanced your husband’s investments both on and off shore. At the same time you redistributed the wealth of others. Our system of a free market economy is being destroyed by the likes of you, Harry Reid, and now our President. You ride around in a Gulfstream airplane at the tax payers expense while criticizing the presidents of companies who produced something for the economy. You add nothing to the economy of the United States ; you only subtract therefrom.

    I would like to suggest that you return to the city of fruitcakes and nuts and eat your husband's canned tuna and pineapple produced by illegal immigrants and by workers who have been excluded from the protection that 90% of the legal workers in the United States have.

    I await your defeat in the next election with glee...

    Don't ever use the term un-American again for protesters who love this country and are exercising their rights upon which this country was founded. By the way, while I served in the Army, I was spit on by the same type of lunatics who support you and who you probably supported in the 60s and 70s. You are an embarrassment to all of us who served so that you would have the protected right of free speech to call us un-American. But at the same time, I have the right to write you to notify you that I consider you to be un-American, as do the majority of the people of this formerly great country. You are a true disgrace to most of the people who served this country by offering themselves for public service in the United States Congress.

    I feel certain your aides will not share this letter with you, but I intend to share it with many...

  • Is this for real? Barack Obama as Jesus Christ?

    Checking out the vendors that popped up in and around the Democratic National Convention (DNC), delegates and visitors were treated to a host of left-wing paraphernalia. One vendor, in particular, sold "posters and artwork depicting President Obama as Jesus Christ." Have these people completely lost their minds?

    One poster features an image of the president in prayer with the headline, "Prophecy Fulfilled."

    "Barak is of Hebrew origin and its meaning is 'flash of lightning," the poster notes, referencing a passage in in the Old Testament book of Judges.

    Hussein, they allege, is a Biblical word meaning "good and handsome."

    "So you see, Barak was destined to be a good and handsome man that would rise like a flash of lightning to win victory in a battle against overwhelming odds," the poster read.

    Todd Starnes of Fox News goes on to report that "an Obama calendar, obtained by Fox News, features two religious images of the Commander-in-Chief." Is this some kind of joke?

    The month of August includes a photograph of Obama's birth certificate with the words "Heaven sent."

    The president was born on Aug. 4th.

    The entry also includes a photograph of Obama along with a passage of Scripture from the New Testament.

    "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life," the entry read -- referencing John 3:16.

    The month of November includes an image of individuals with their hands on Obama's back -- with the words "The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want."

    There is even a video which promotes the calendar. Watch it... if you are brave enough.

    It's time for Barack Obama to get over himself and for his followers to get a life.
