Want to score points with the Obama regime? Bomb schools, kill teachers, poison girls' schools, strap bombs on to children, oppress and torture women, harbor jihad leaders like Osama Bin Laden -- the more the better. Then you, too, will get on Obama's favored status list. This is monstrous.

If you’re a Republican and have been thinking about fleeing from the evil Republican party and joining with the America loving Democrat party the statistics below should help you with your decision.

Barack says we need to have a conversation about race in America. Fair enough. But this time, it has to be a two-way conversation. White America needs to be heard from, not just lectured to. This time, the Silent Majority needs to have its convictions, grievances and demands heard. And among them are these: 

First, America has been the best country on earth for black folks. It was here that 600,000 black people, brought from Africa in slave ships, grew into a community of 40 million, were introduced to Christian salvation, and reached the greatest levels of freedom and prosperity blacks have ever known. Jeremiah Wright ought to go down on his knees and thank God he is an American.

Second, no people anywhere have done more to lift up blacks than white Americans. Untold trillions have been spent since the '60s on welfare, food stamps, rent supplements, Section 8 housing, Pell grants, student loans, legal services, Medicaid, Earned Income Tax Credits and poverty programs designed to bring the African-American community into the mainstream. Governments, businesses and colleges have engaged in discrimination against white folks with affirmative action, contract set-asides and quotas to advance black applicants over white applicants. Churches, foundations, civic groups, schools and individuals all over America have donated their time and money to support soup kitchens, adult education, day care, retirement and nursing homes for blacks. We hear the grievances. Where is the gratitude?

Barack talks about new 'ladders of opportunity' for blacks. Let him go to Altoona? And Johnstown, and ask the white kids in Catholic schools how many were visited lately by Ivy League recruiters handing out scholarships for 'deserving' white kids? Is white America really responsible for the fact that the crime and incarceration rates for African-Americans are seven times those of white America? Is it really white America 's fault that illegitimacy in the African-American community has hit 70 percent and the black dropout rate from high schools in some cities has reached 50 percent?

Is that the fault of white America or, first and foremost, a failure of the black community itself?

As for racism, its ugliest manifestation is in interracial crime, and especially interracial crimes of violence. Is Barack Obama aware that while white criminals choose black victims 3 percent of the time, black criminals choose white victims 45 percent of the time?
Is Barack aware that black-on-white rapes are 100 times more common than the reverse, that black-on-white robberies were 139 times as common in the first three years of this decade as the reverse?

We have all heard ad nauseam from the Rev. Al about Tawana Brawley, the Duke rape case and Jena. And all turned out to be hoaxes. But about the epidemic of black assaults on whites that are real, we hear nothing.

Sorry, Barack, some of us have heard it all before, about 40 years and 40 trillion tax dollars ago.

The amnesty gang of 8, the president, Mr. Holder, and their bipartisan progressive soldiers owe citizens some real answers!

What part of income tax evasion, Social Security tax evasion, workman’s’ compensation evasion, unemployment compensation tax evasion, wage and hour laws, OSHA, EPA, identity theft, etc, is not a felony crime that is aggressively prosecuted to the fullest extent of law within the US, relative to both employees and employers?

What about border security and VISA laws?   We have an army designed to protect our borders, don’t say we can’t! 

Have any of you not taken the oath of office?   Surely you’re familiar with Article VI of the Constitution! Surely you understand the written covenants of the Constitution, including the Amendment and state ratification process required to change any word or corrupt the meaning of any word or passage!

Is there not a high covenant of character, integrity, and honesty required to possess such high offices of government?

If you will not call a criminal “a criminal”, how can you arrest a criminal?

If you don’t arrest a criminal how will you prosecute a criminal?

Failure to prosecute criminals clearly violates oath of office and predictably creates chaotic lawlessness!

Calling criminals “undocumented workers” adds collusion and complicity to the crime. Protecting criminals from the law and justice aids and abets the crime! Democrat and republican citizens better throw the corrupt trash out or both lose!

Are you saying you’re not going to enforce the Constitution and laws of the land??? Please explain

Breitbart Reports:

Washington has been abuzz for months over the fear and loathing that Congressional staffers have for Obamacare. Many staffers and employees on Capitol Hill have been saying they'll have to quit Washington if they are forced into Obamacare. Now the President is promising to fix it all for them.

At the very beginning of his closed-door meeting with Senate Democrats, the President addressed staffers' worries that Obamacare will force them to quit working in Washington, promising "I'm on it."

Currently congressional staffers have 75 percent of their healthcare insurance paid by taxpayers, but if their Cadillac Congressional healthcare plan is ended and staffers are pushed into Obamacare, many Congressional employees fear that their insurance costs will increase by thousands of dollars a year. This cost, many say, will force them to quit working in Washington.

The Republican-sponsored amendment to Obamacare introduced by Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) would require that lawmakers and their staffers must be covered by the same insurance exchanges that the rest of America will be forced into as mandated by Obama's healthcare law. It is this amendment that staffers are protesting.

The Office of Personnel Management has not announced its decision on whether or not it will discontinue the comprehensive Congressional healthcare plan and this uncertainty is driving staffers' fears.

Some lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have been threatening to push through a legislative "fix" to the problem thereby exempting Congress and its employees from Obama's healthcare law. But such a fix could be characterized as a certain measure of hypocrisy as Congress exempts itself from the healthcare law it forced on the rest of us.

It is an axiom among many in Congress that if staffers are forced into Obamacare, a "brain drain" will result as key staffers with years of experience will quit and go home to find other work.

Sen. Barbara Mikulski (D-MD) is one who fears such a loss of staffers.

"Both sides of the aisle, both sides of the dome, we’re facing a significant brain drain of people who work with us both here in Washington and state staffs," Mikulski said. "Some of us have caseworkers that have been with us 18, 20 years. Our links to veterans’ communities and the elderly. My casework staff is a crack staff; it’s one of the ways we’re able to help our constituents. We could face a real brain drain."

Some Republicans have joined Democrats in efforts to exempt staffers from Obamacare, but not all. Senator Richard Burr of North Carolina recently said that Congress should have to live with the same law that everyone else does.

"I have no problems with Congress being under the same guidelines," Burr said. "I think if this is going to be a disaster--which I think it’s going to be--we ought to enjoy it together with our constituents."

A spokesperson for the House Ways and Means Committee chaired by Republican Dave Camp of Michigan echoed Sen. Burr's sentiment.

"If the ObamaCare exchanges are good enough for the hardworking Americans and small businesses the law claims to help," the spokesperson said, "then they should be good enough for the president, vice president, Congress and federal employees."

It's like rats escaping a sinking ship.

If Obamacare is so good, how come the author is giving out passes. If it is good enough for working America, it is good enough for everyone......Congress, President, Big Business, IRS, everyone.

Vote to defund Obamacare.  We can do it and not shut down government.

Jesse Jackson Refuses To Apologize for racist comments

              against Florida For Zimmerman Verdict

There a serious disconnect between Jesse Jackson and the American public when it comes to the 21st century and the turbulent times of the civil rights movement of the 1960s where he still lives. On Tuesday, while in Florida, Jackson decided to once again stir up Floridians and the nation by labeling the state as the “the Selma of our time,” according to Fox News.

What is indeed tragic about his statement is that the countless dozens of civil rights Selma marchers that fought and died during those horrific battles in 1965 to win civil rights have been cheapened by his mutterings. Jackson has once again proven why he has outlived his usefulness as well as his time on the national stage.

It should have been beneath Jesse Jackson to try and drum up old dated memories of a civil rights era that does not exist any longer. What is perplexing is how Jackson could work his lips to utter his old brand of racism based upon the jury’s diligent application of the law to the presented facts.

Instead Jackson wants the new-old standard to be one based on having a jury use their personal feelings about Trayvon Martin and how they should consider that he might have been their child.

Yet is that not the very standard that was used by many southern juries in the past to unjustly convict black defendants? Were not all white juries using that standard when prosecutors asked them to “let their conscience and their feelings be their guide” in determining the innocence or guilt of the black defendant? Well most students of history know well the outcome when application of the law was tossed out the window in those cases.

Now here come the race hustlers who still are trying to stretch their 15 or 20 years of civil rights celebrity into a lifetime hustle. Jackson somehow insists that the laws not be applied to the facts and throw all the progress of civil rights advocacy for colorblind justice right out the window.

The state of Florida and the American people are much smarter than that. Facts and the law do matter despite what Jackson thinks. In reality all of the rabble rousing and use of sheer race demagoguery by Jesse cheapens the meaning and accomplishments of the civil rights movement. He added insult to injury by comparing Florida to the racial segregationist practices that existed in South Africa which led to the rise of leaders like Nelson Mandela.

There was no racism in the Zimmerman decision, and even Trayvon’s mother stated that race was not the point of the trial. So where is the fire Jesse!

This copied from WND post and is just one of the attacks by a radical group in denial!

• S.B. 543, signed by then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger in 2010, “allows school staff to remove children ages 12 and up from government schools and taken off-campus for counseling sessions, without parental permission or involvement.”

• A.C.R. 82, approved by the California Legislature in 2010, “creates de facto ‘morality-free zones’ at participating schools (pre-kindergarten through public universities). Schools that become official ‘Discrimination-Free Zones’ will ‘enact procedures’ (including mandatory counseling) against students from pre-kindergarten on up who are accused of ‘hate,’ ‘intolerance,’ or ‘discrimination.’” The definition of “hate” includes peacefully speaking or writing against the unnatural lifestyles choices of homosexuality and bisexuality.

• S.B. 572, signed by Schwarzenegger in 2009, establishes “Harvey Milk Day” in K-12 California public schools and community colleges. In classrooms, schools and school districts that participate, children are taught to admire the life and values of late homosexual activist and teen predator Harvey Milk of San Francisco in the month of May.

• S.B. 777, signed by Schwarzenegger in 2007, prohibits all public school instruction and every school activity from “promoting a discriminatory bias” against (effectively requiring positive depictions of) transsexuality, bisexuality and homosexuality to schoolchildren as young as five years old.

• A.B. 394, signed by Schwarzenegger in 2007, effectively promotes transsexual, bisexual and homosexual indoctrination of students, parents and teachers via “anti-harassment” and “anti-discrimination” materials, to be publicized in classrooms and assemblies, posted on walls, incorporated into curricula on school websites, and distributed in handouts to take home.

• S.B. 71, signed by Gov. Gray Davis in 2003 and implemented in 2008 through the new “sexual health” standards approved by appointees of Schwarzenegger and State Superintendent of Public Instruction Jack O’Connell, teaches children as young as fifth grade that any consensual sexual behavior is “safe” as long as you “protect” yourself with a condom, and teaches children that homosexuality, bisexuality and transsexuality is “normal.”

• A.B. 1785, signed by Davis in 2000, required the California State Board of Education to alter the state curriculum frameworks to include and require “human relations education” for children in K-12 public schools, with the aim of “fostering an appreciation of the diversity of California’s population and discouraging the development of discriminatory attitudes and practices,” according to the state legislative counsel’s digest.

• A.B. 537, signed by Davis in 1999, permits teachers and students to openly proclaim and display their homosexuality, bisexuality or transsexuality, even permitting cross-dressing teachers, school employees and student on campus, in classrooms, and in restrooms.

This is just California! What about your State?

To the Chair, HJC : House Judicial Committee letter dated July 31, 2013 to President Obama

Chairman, House Judicial Committee The Honorable Bob Goodlatte

Congressman,

I have read your letter to President Obama and while I agree with the content and findings of your Investigation - I do not agree with the method of this letter.

Sir, Americans in their millions are watching Congress and what we see is a Congress who appears to be deathly afraid of doing anything against this administration - regardless of their crimes.

This is not only puzzling - it is ominous........

Americans do not understand how crimes can be committed, Contempt can be committed - yet Congress sits idly by and writes letters... When every American Citizen knows that if they themselves committed any such crime, they would quickly find themselves behind bars.

Apparently, any member of President Obama's administration knows they can lie cheat and steal from this Nation without damaging their career or risking incarceration.

This is apparent with administration officials "pleading" the Fifth Amendment in testimony - when they are publicly accountable officials and subject to Federal Law. Administration officials (like Mr. Holder) who deceive in testimony - or outright lie in testimony - yet are not held accountable in the historical response to such lies and deception to Congress.... Impeachment.

Americans question just what Congress is up to and why Congress has such apparent fear for this administration.

You have to understand Sir; this is a very valid question.

I have told you in previous letters to the HJC that until such a time as the Rule of Law is reinstated by Congress - this will continue and our Nation will continue to decline without Congressional action.

If this Nation has to endure another three years of this I do not expect our Nation to survive and I expect our Constitution to be destroyed, citizens in slavery.

Congress must act and you are faced with a perfect opportunity to begin - Impeach Eric Holder. You certainly do not need President Obama's opinion nor do you need his permission!

If Congress acts with Impeachment in this issue, President Obama is placed on notice Congress will no longer tolerate violations of the Rule of Law and there is hope our Nation will survive his term.

Respectfully,

Aubrey Mason San Antonio, Texas

Did anyone else read the statement from a Saudi Prince a couple 3 days ago that demanded that America refrain from fracting???    I think the article said He is a significant owner of FOX news..

Tnx.

Listening to Good Morning American this morning they announced that the government can legally track your cell phone. They said that the information stored in your cell phone was the property of your service provider and not yours therefore they could legally track your cell phone without violating your constitutional rights, BS. This is just another way to spy and try to control the American people. What's next are they going to tell you the signal to your TV is owned by your cable provider and be able to watch what your doing at home through a small camera implanted in your TV? They say it's in the name of National Security yeah right every American is a treat to the country. This is the same crap the FBI pulled back in the 60s during the protests to keep a file on everyone they wanted to by saying they were communist or a treat or an agitator.

How the Tea Party Will Lose The 2014 Election

Yes, I do believe that conservatives will wake up in November 2014 to find that they have lost the senate and maybe the house; though I will admit we just might retain the house.  Maybe.

All because there really is no Tea Party.  There are the Tea Parties, plural and they don’t talk to each other.  They each have their own agenda.  They don’t even agree on their basic tenets.  There is the “Tea Party Patriots” with a web site here that states their mission as being simply …to restore America's founding principles of Fiscal Responsibility, Constitutionally Limited Government and Free Markets.

Then there is the Tea Party Command Center with a web site here with 15 ‘basic tenets’.

And of course the Tea Party express with six points in their mission statement.  Their web site is here.

On each page if you want to see their mission statements for yourself just click on the ‘about’ link at the top of their home pages.

There are others but I think you get the point.  Each of these has their own agenda and each goes after their own political ogres.  And I am sure each will have their own favorite candidates to endorse.  There is no focus within this hodgepodge of political theologies.  They can’t even focus enough to get very detrimental Presidential appointees disapproved!  Thomas Perez as Secretary of Labor???  WOW.  If he has his way, forced unionism will be a federal law that will supposedly override any and all state laws, the tenth amendment not-with-standing.  How about Obama’s socialist bed mate Kathleen Sebelius as Secretary of Health and Human Services overseeing the dreaded Obamacare. 

Ok.  OK.  I’ll get back to the point.

With this much diversity among the so called Tea Parties, they accomplish nothing.  The speaker of the house, a republican in name only (RINO) is touting the immigration reform acts as they come down from his new bosses in the senate.  Who would have thought that a Speaker would go on national TV and call himself a “facilitator”.  Gee I thought he was supposed to be the Leader of the majority party.  I guess with the mind set of our esteemed politicians that just ain’t true anymore.  He has other leadership issues and broken promises, but I said I would try to get back to the point of this blog.

The next point about the fractious Tea Parties is the local organizations.  They, for the most part, are far from local in their focus.  They want to be on the main stage so they go after national issues.  The Tea Party in my own county even refuses to endorse candidates for public offices claiming that they are ‘educational and therefore can’t do that.  I have some news for them.  There are basically only two entities that can’t endorse political candidates.  Any registered religious group due to the separation of church and state and any organization that receives the bulk of their funding from the tax payers such as PUBLIC schools.  Private non religious educational organizations that don’t receive funding from the tax payers are completely free to do so.  The local groups really need to focus on getting local issues made into laws.  Want to take back the senate?  Get behind a good conservative candidate and PUSH!  Want to stop the amnesty?  Deluge your own states senators and representatives with faxes, phone calls and letters telling them to represent their constituents.  Now there’s a revolutionary idea.  An elected representative representing.   I would like to start a new Tea Party in my county.  One dedicated to the two items of interest to our population.  Political education of the issues of local interest and the backing of conservative candidates.  We might call it the Local Tea Party, or some such.

It is up to us, the people that provide the Tea Party leaders with their incomes to make our individual voices heard and demand and accounting.  Why can’t they sit down with the leaders of all of the national Tea Parties and work out a concerted effort on one or two issues and a bunch of national conservative candidates then FOCUS or lose yet another election and perhaps an entire nation.  Let’s face it folks, WE THE PEOPLE pay these people too and they should reflect our needs not their own.
