Obama Doctrine: Blame Bush

By Rukus | April 27, 2012 | 16:38

Obama has made a lot of excuses for his horribly failed policies, number 1 being, Blame Bush. Seems he has nothing else to go on so deflects with the "War on women", "The rich paying their 'fair share'" etc... but, he can always be trusted to do the one thing that helped him get elected: Blame Bush. I'll start with one recent example and y'all have at it.  Blame Bush.

No room for God in the Veteran's Administration

By frank_andrini | April 10, 2012 | 23:47

I was told Sunday- Easter Sunday mind you and by a staff counselor- that I COULD NOT USE THE NAME OF "GOD" in the context of the 'Serenity Prayer' because AND I QUOTE VERBATIM "Not everybody believes in God". NO ONE in the class could begin with 'God' but instead we had to start with 'Grant me the serenity' and when I asked who was doing the granting I was told to 'look within yourself'. Now these 'counselors' make BIG bucks (he had told us that himself) and it seems to me or am I just being cynical that he was setting up a little job security? This seems to me to be a dangerous precedent that is being set at taxpayer's expense.

Another rant: The truth behind the never-ending narrative from leftist propogandists

By Andrew H. | March 22, 2012 | 05:24

Voting for Freedom is Voting against Democrats and the media sycophants pushing this criminal party's bass-ackward agenda. 

The Democrat party is chock full of ‘em. The people whose passion is to be as unlikable as they can be—go vote in synchronized choreography, lining up as lemmings to give away their freedom to power junkies who occupy positions in the Democrat party—the line is solid with those angry liberals—hateful, vile, bad company—the angry unemployed by choice, the angry call themselves lesbians in boy haircuts who make nearly every workplace they happen into a miserable thing for those around them, the anti-life smoozies and their friends who bring benefits to their collectivist tables upon which every top is full of other people’s stuff taken by the force of the law and guns—those who stand in line for food stamps and always want more—much more, numbskulls who believe paying union dues is a good investment, proud to be grotesque feminists, druggies, modern day hippies who are in it for the trip—politicians on the take who work hard to invent or steal as many votes as they can—no voter ID required here!—their ranks are replete with every imaginable kind of psychopath, pervert, murderer, rapist, thief, dumb-ass, violent, anarchist, communist, socialist, environmental slave, anti-religion, full of crap—full of themselves loudmouths, anti-property ownership for everyone except them—those self-righteous knuckle-dragging, brainless, selfish idiots who demand something new every year from the rest of us.

They are the kind of people who are the worst company one can accidentally have at dinner—where you are expected to pay for that too. To be a democrat is to be a villain—whether purposeful or not. To be a democrat is to be the worst kind of person most often produced by a public “education” that teaches nothing of substance, of truth—but produce losers out of more and more wide eyed children by telling them that having high self-esteem is more important than God, more important than country, and far more important than learning anything of substance—such as reading, writing, and arithmetic—let alone economics, history, or shhh (ethics, morality—or even good manners).

To be a democrat is to be against freedom in a real sense, not illusionary—but very real—we watch these miscreants as they band together in their collectivists camps to write ever more tax bills, regulations and laws to artificially take control of everything—our lives, our very being, our money, our time, our faith, our freedoms. Erosion is no longer the word—they’re taking every bit of freedom away from us in chunks of Obama directly made or inspired orders from on high.

Oh—Hell—No! 

I will not comply.

There is a vote and surely more people will vote freedom rather than for demon inspired democrat power. God help this country if we do. God have mercy on this country if we don’t.

How hard is it to stay the lie that is the left?

By Andrew H. | March 09, 2012 | 06:19

From the ant that is one Mike Malloy to the highly paid professor Billy Ayers, I began to think what it must be to have to live in their shoes. Never would I allow myself to live in such a hateful, worthless place and guard lies, but I find it interesting to consider. How they must set their minds to the realm of the deep, dark pit that is leftist life today must be pretty hard on their psyche. I don’t know. Maybe many people like them have swallowed the mantra for so long, it’s become an easy residence where surrealism covers their heads and protects them from any disagreeable weather of truth. Detached from reality, leftists breathe it in while occupying a different dimension—not a parallel dimension as some might suggest but a different one—a skewed off-center one that requires much of the heart in payment, much of the mind to a kind of slavery. They will have what they think want! That comes from the rest of us by forced “charity.” Look for none to be satisfied, ever. It doesn’t happen. Isn’t it an exercise of investigative analysis given one phrase to ponder the life of many liberals—the life of all “prominent” liberals, wherein they must to go to bed every night stressed over how they will continue the lie? They seem to have little trouble keeping up with the meme and the non-geometric web they spin, although some make fools of themselves and show us all what hypocrisy looks like in its purest, naked form of attribution.

Maybe it is harder than we think. Sadly, the people who live in the swamp of mindless leftist elitism have infested our institutions. And little Johnny can’t hardly read while little Janie can’t hardly think. Billy is speaking and writing a little—and getting paid for it! He can wallow in words to describe an educational philosophy that is whatever he wants it to be—has been ineffective and off the ground while children suffer and do not learn. What profitable fun is there to rail against anything older than last year’s wine and get paid for proselytizing a leftist point of view! Nevertheless, he has to work to keep it going so that he receives a goodly portion of what he considers evil at its core—dollars that have been originated by capitalism. Every dollar in our economy began with someone buying and selling. Heh. Nevertheless, Baal must be served by the faithful!

He has recently said he was not a domestic terrorist—I buy that much regarding his present—but he was—oh yes. At one time, he was very much a little radical who played with rhetoric and bombs. He swarmed with other worthless college kids in his day—protesting a war and an “unfair” economic system, he says. Okay. The only evidence he has grown up is the fact that he managed to become a paid employee and stopped making bombs—a good first step. He is in his sixties now and still carries the message of collectivism, the most devastating and murderous economic philosophy man has ever been known to embrace. Heh. That doesn’t seem to be an intelligent place to be at all. He gets by because the left has made the claim that it is intelligent. That’s all they have—a claim. People know that when it comes to leaders of a collectivist movement, it is always the leaders who are enriched while the rest of us have less of an opportunity, don’t they? In more words, when socialism has been jockeyed, sold, or forced onto a people, fewer people have any sort of opportunity to succeed. Fewer still occupy a position where vacations to Spain, Hawaii, Aspen, and countless high dollar dinners, theaters, shopping trips, shows, concerts, or parties—to count a few advantages of being on top of the collectivist heap—become their entitlement as “leaders.” Trying to do any one of those things as a member of the fertilized recipient class is the same as trying to reach the moon on a bicycle.

I think about what it must be like to be in the place of a Randi Rhodes, Barack Obama, itty bitty Tom Harthman, every democratic member of the house and senate, and many others who contaminate our airwaves and public discourse—how about a Nancy Pelosi?—and I wonder how they’ve managed to live so many years yet learned so little about life. She is one who has never found fault with the latest way someone has found to legislatively or otherwise make certain any baby can be killed without consequence or conscience—at least the movers and shakers consciences. The lie is compounded by their telling us that it is we who are out of touch, evil, against women, etc. etc. One example is that if we believe that there is such a thing as personal responsibility in most cases of unwanted pregnancy and that babies in those cases should not be put to death for offenses they did not commit, we are accused of being Nazis not simply people who oppose killing innocence. She says she is Catholic.

The media mini-minds are trying to bombard us too—whether using the daily subtle methods of messaging or if you’re on MSNBC or something called Current TV, where they’re not skilled enough to make subtle delivery—we hear how ignorant we are. That is a good thing since they expose their outrageous, smarmy, pronouncements and we clearly see them for what they are—that’s why we don’t bother watching them. Media babies tell us what to think by laughing at anyone who does not think as they do—now don’t they have to work hard to continue the lie? Bless their hearts if you can find it through the hard shell. Some don’t laugh, some just hate. They “report” what is happening and how we should make sense of what is happening from mouths that move incessantly, guided by minds that have accepted a large ewww factor and stopped working when they sat in classes at a journalism school. Built on lies, they work hard to continue the would be over-arching trajectory of awful social and government “protections.” A few years ago, I wrote a piece on the psychology of the left. Nothing has changed. Leftists are still stuck in a place where misery and hatefulness fuel their daily ability to get up and go. It was a hideous place for me to visit and I got out of that study as quickly as I could. Leftists find it a place of comfort and ease I suppose. Sadly, many of the electorate don’t have the time or inclination to study the left much at all and so vote the way they do. We get stuck with Obama and pay more for gas and cigarettes. Farmers in California get stuck with bushels and bushels of no product because they are not allowed the water to irrigate. Families who used to have their young girls join the Girl Scouts have to re-think whether the indoctrination is sufficiently small enough to weigh and toss, for their precious to enjoy the good things the scouts do. We all remain contributors to Middle East countries because we’re not allowed to use our own resources. We’re all subject to not being allowed much and we take it. It kind of makes one wonder if the left hasn’t been very successful in their efforts to take us with them into that place of darkness. They have been successful because we let them. Heh… it ain’t funny at all. There’s no fun in the house. Is it not time for more of us to refuse to comply? I think so, from the depths of my heart and mind I think so! Take that Holder! Turn and wretch endlessly in your sleep until you become an honest man!

We need to fire them. Figuratively speaking, it would be good to release them from the burden of the lie. We could choose to not buy from sponsors that pay for their words—written or spoken—that sound that emits through pursed lips as they struggle to put together complete sentences to explain how much we are wrong about everything. If times were much better, we may even find them hilarious as a good source of comedy watching these retches twist and turn, jump as they go about defending the lie. Maybe, just maybe, some of them would stop lying. The left has been ruinous to our economy, our churches, our families, our work—our freedoms. Only in America, the most tolerant country in the world, have we let the most intolerant people run most things. The pull and push of left versus right has been with us for decades. For the present, an excellent bit of action is to go ahead and vote against Obama and his minions vying for congressional seats. It won’t hurt at all to pull the lever for people who aren’t socialists and doing that just might begin the healing process for our nation. Don’t we need to grasp and hold onto a little bit of freedom?

Ready to fight for Rush?

By Radical1979 | March 03, 2012 | 23:29

I'm not a huge fan of Rush's personality, but he does a great job bringing issues to light for conservatives. We cannot allow him to be silenced. He's the non GOP establishment. I don't like that he apologized, but the Left has been calling and emailing his sponsors. Their goal is to use this situation to silence him. I'd like people to list their emails and phone calls made in support of Rush. If we all work together maybe we can turn the tide. I emailed my local radio station that carries Rush. I also emailed Carbonite at affiliates@carbonite.com I'll add my voice to any other emails or phone numbers posted. Thanks

Chris Matthews calls for the Thought Police on Rush

By tombaker | March 02, 2012 | 18:19

Some things I guess you wait to see if it plays out from 1984. Today active DNC player, former speech writer for Jimmy Carter, and aid to Tip O'Neill, told anyone daring to watch his propaganda show, that Rush Limbaugh has "inappropriate thought" Beyond action, beyond words, Matthews wants to hang Rush, for "inappropriate thought" I hope the writers here capture this sewage out of the speechwriters mouth, and link up a clip.

Tactic for Republicans to deal with media?

By seen the light | February 26, 2012 | 23:36

Hello all, I'm new here and glad to be here. As I'm new here, I'm sure this has probably been offered already, but I wanted to get it off my chest and offer it anyway. I don't see why the Reublican candidates and their campaign managers and simply various lower level politicians don't simply ambush the liberal interviewers. They have laid so many traps for themselves with their many recorded double standards. Why don't they simply come out, in a huge public forum, and simply QOUTE THEM. I mean along the lines of "On March 14, 2008, you said about candidate Obama, etc etc", and then contrast that with their many double standards. I know they are afraid of looking confrontational, but they are getting beat up anyway. The only way out is by fighting back openly. How about openly confronting Matt Lauer, David Gregory, Diane Sawyer, etc? Thoughts?

Sue Myerscough Rules : NO Right To Bear Arms Outside Home

By Ashrak | February 06, 2012 | 22:47

Yes, you read that correctly. Justice Sue Myerscough ruled that there does not exist a right to carry a firearm outside the home.

That can only mean, then, that homeless people have no right to bear arms. None whatsoever.  They have no home, right? 1+1=2

I suppose that can only mean that a homeless person has no right to speak, or pray, or assemble or publish writings either. After all the Supreme Court said flatly and directly that "The Second Amendment is no different." in a crystal clear context of the First Amendment.  Again - 1+1=2

 

I thought it long ago established that owning rights did not hinge upon property ownership. But then, The Second Amendment is clear all by itself.  With this "decision", everyone in the country ought to be very worried. A federal court judge has just declared that regardless of the Second Amendment,  regardless of Heller, regardless of McDonald, a court can simply say "No, you cannot exercise the right to bear arms outside your home - and there ain't jack squat you can do about it!" Or as Potsi would have said "Sit On It!".

 

Barack Obama should be asked, directly, how it can be that a judge he appointed can rule that a total prohibition of bearing arms can possibly pass Constitutional muster. The supreme Court itself ruled on that point already.  Entire classes of weapon bans doesn't stand and neither does prohibition posing as regulation.  Here we have the total destruction of a right and its exercise.....and NO REMEDY whatsoever.  Another Illinois court already said that nobody can sue for money damages - so Title 42 Section 1983 protections has been dispensed with already as well.

All you journalists out there, how about your freedom of the press being limited to only "within the home"? Who in their right mind would do anything but laugh at that stupidity?

Now, some will argue that this is not really a big deal. Well, in the post Incorporation world it is a very big deal. Who among us thinks that other states, like say a Romney Massachusetts, won't look to this federal court decision in its attempt to crush the Second Amendment recognitions? Or how about a certain New York City Mayor? What applies in Illinois has to apply everywhere - such is the nature of "incorporation".

Brent? Sean? Rush? Mark?

I fail to understand how this foolishness cannot be lead off for all of tomorrow's shows.  FFS, a federal judge just claimed that the right to bear arms does not exist past your doorsill (and even then only by permission)- in spite of it being right there in the Constitution itself, in spite of the foolishness that it is to say that a right can ONLY exist INSIDE your home!   Really, can it get any more ridiculous than this?  I suppose it can, when the conservative leaders watch it pass by without saying a word........Maybe this time that won't happen. However, I cannot hold much confidence in anything but that happening. It is what has always happened before....

I call for the Impeachment of Justice Sue Myerscough. There is no way to sanely read Heller to read that the right defined exists ONLY within the home. Two words, "such as" does not an ONLY example produce. That amounts to holding on to a pipe dream excuse in order to willfully and intentionally deny literally millions upon millions of people their Creator Endowed RIGHT to bear arms. Willful denial of individual rights amounts to the highest of crimes and borders on treasonous activity. It most certainly constitutes dereliction of duty and violation of her oath of office.  She should be removed from the bench, immediately. This idiocy has gone on too long and went too far.

Hey Mr. Silent Speaker, John Boehner, will you have the courage to say anything about THIS Scandalous behavior, much less do anything about it? Noting your GunWalker silence and your passage of reciprocity for only 49 states AFTER the Supreme Court already held that the Second Amendment applies to ALL states, I doubt you have the courage to face this debacle either.

I guess we shall also see if the TEA party supporters, especially those with high exposure media positions, have the guts to stand up for the Individual Liberty they claim to stand for - or if they will just see yet another Liberty placed in the dustbin of history by an activist judge.  This has to go VIRAL or it will be proven to me that Liberty itself is as dead as journalism the ay Sean Hannity described. It will mean that government can literally say and do anything it wants and there is literally nothing any of us can do about it.

obama uses the word, faith...

By Andrew H. | February 06, 2012 | 06:18

Obama says his faith guides his policies. That to me is an interesting tidbit—a profound claim, a stark reminder to us what we have in the office. So what’s new? Not a damn thing is new in this for a leftist democrat in the act of concealing truth. Media jokes in the form of so-called anchors and hosts… blast away to their shrinking audiences slanted editorials, disguised and claimed to be news—and we are expected to never call them out—instead be compliant little people who follow them as surely as Jim Jones’ congregation followed him. Andrea, Chris, Martin, (there’s even an Al in there), Rachel, and a host of others earning a living being silly and dishonest—who must posses the same level of hate as a Malloy—but without being honest about that too—feed the people pond scum and are confident we buy it because to them, we are the uneducated, the stupid, the easily led, easily fed masses of dependence, of faith in government. I know that is a horribly long sentence. I don’t care. Faith is a word some people use so freely and frequently that the word has little meaning. Big word now a little word with no more substance than a “good morning,” which liberals don’t bother much with either. It is substance versus hollowness, shallowness, and who sees the difference? Who cares anymore? “Faith” to Obama, present and accounted for but not voting unless a pure leftist bill is in the offing, means abortion, socialism, energy dependence, income dependence, union power, union enslavement, trial lawyer superiority, environmental fraud, commerce control, judiciary veer—no, a hard turn—away from the Constitution, government growth on the backs of every taxpayer, higher taxes for everyone! (So much fun!), and we are to be fooled again by the democratic slight of hand (bought cigarettes lately?) who will tell us it is only the “rich,” should pay more—but we all will—and the lie is that they know it but won’t say it. And crony “capitalism”? Nah—deny it all, Obama Hogwarts while Solyndra remains a mere tip of the proverbial iceberg. Pipeline jobs? (See above) or section %*^(*% of US code *$#&*^^$%--not enough digits but there are and shall be thousands of government union members to enforce whatever the subsections of a subsection in a section is. Punish us with your faith, Obama—lama. Enjoy your golf and vacation schedule—it’s been a few weeks, aren’t you all about ready for another? Your term has been a disaster but too few sounded the alarm—or heeded the obvious. You are still unqualified and can’t do the job. Everything you touch has been a mess. You can’t manage much but here you are—we’re stuck with you for another eleven months. Our suffering is long and your “faith” would have it longer. Go back to Chicago and earn a living somehow but not as the President or anything near the government—there are no openings for you. Maybe one day you will find faith—I do hope that you will—a true faith would deliver you. Then you can find love and peace, and understand the difference between a lie and the truth. God loves you, man.

My dream---what the next Republican President should do to the media

By sms5217 | February 05, 2012 | 23:40

Given that this is an election year, like most of you, I avoid the MSM if at all possible to avoid their gratuitous and vile propaganda in service of our messiah in chief. I had a dream about what I would do if I were the next Republican President's chief of staff with regards to how the MSM should be treated in that administration: 1). Stop the stupid and unnecessary press "gaggle" every day.. Completely unnecessary and just an opportunity for the MSM to grandstand and showboat their liberal bias. 2). Avoid any sitdowns in the White House with Brian Williams, et al and the rest of the DC/NY liberal establishment. When the Republican President wants to grant an interview, pick some unknown, earnest guy in Kansas or Oklahoma who might still be liberal, but not canine in his/her allegiance to the left that the typical MSM from NYC. Give them little notice, so some national guy in NY can't get to him. 3). Avoid and shut down this stupid Press Club dinners or White House Correspondent dinners...where the MSM has some comedian do some stupid liberal act like Wanda Sykes and "I hope he gets kidney failure" line. Why have it....? 4). Any time, any time at all that some liberal idiot asks some question that is laced with preconceptions on liberal fantasies (which is to say any question asked to a Republican), START BY SAYING "I DISAGREE WITH YOUR WHOLE CONCEPT OF THIS QUESTION" and then blast them for their lies and liberal tilt. This should start with the lowest staffer and end with the President. 5). Throw in frequently with ANY interaction with the media that they are biased and "would you ask this question or treat a Democrat this way". Say it with a laugh or as an aside, but never angry or by shouting. Remember, repetition is the best way to force this into the minds of the people, who are hopelessly still in love with people like Matt Lauer. It just amazes me that Republicans, especially people like George W or Cheney either actually PREFERRED to sit down with the MSM or just play nice with them. I would not let the likes of Andrea Mitchell within 10 miles of the White House, and if your press secretary has to deal with them, inject the bias thing at every turn, not answering their biased questions, and the like. It amazes me even more that the Republicans even allow NBC to broadcast their debates....but that is another issues for another time.

Boston Bruins goalie under siege for refusal to meet Obama, stance on government...

By AggieSpirit | January 24, 2012 | 17:33

Thought the Newsbusters community would like to see some of the derisive comments being directed at Boston Bruins goalie Tim Thomas from the ESPN community/comments here: http://espn.go.com/boston/nhl/story/_/id/7497873/boston-bruins-trying-pu... And then of course, a member of the liberal elite (Boston based reporter) media goes on the attack here: http://espn.go.com/boston/nhl/story/_/id/7495441/tim-thomas-picked-wrong... Tim Thomas is a noted conservative, and is being blasted by everyone left of center for his stance. The same media and most of the critics of his decision would have loved anyone snubbing a similar invite to visit the White House during Bush's administration. But I digress.....

Racial Violence Covered Up By MSM

By John T. Bennett | January 23, 2012 | 12:12

A white middle school girl, beaten unconscious by a group of black teens on the school bus, and not a single news outlet is mentioning the race. This horrible attack happened in Ocala, FA, a week ago. What are the odds that the race of victims and attackers would have been mentioned if a pack of whites violently beat a black girl? http://www.americanthinker.com/2012/01/white-middle_schooler_beaten_unco... ABC national news, England's Daily Mail, and The Huffington Post are all reporting on the Ocala beating now, but none are reporting on the simple racial facts. http://abcnews.go.com/US/florida-school-bus-bullies-house-arrest/story?i... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2083618/Her-day-school-bus-girl-... http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/01/07/13-year-old-girl-left-unconscio...

are we going to war?

By shawn. | January 14, 2012 | 22:04

Even though folks know we have the best military in the world, people still try to test our patience North Korea builds their own nukes. Iran builds Nuclear reactors, they are arming militants in Iraq and Afghanistan and will not give us back our drone. I believe even Obama knows closing the straight is a line we cannot let them cross. Is there a way war can be avoided?

Get the media to stop saying same-sex marriage is "banned"!

By redfish | January 06, 2012 | 13:13

I'm a moderate on social issues, but what annoys the hell out of me is whenever any news broadcast talks about a "ban on gay marriage." Even Fox News anchors casually talk about "gay marriage bans", because the phrasing has entered our common vernacular. Straight from the idea of a "ban" on gays marrying, you get people complaining about how conservatives want to regulate people's private lives and what they do in their bedrooms. However, nothing is banned! People are free to do whatever they want in their own lives. A ban is a restriction on behavior, and there is no restriction on behavior. Conservatives aren't "controlling people's private lives." The government recognizes a certain relationship as constituting marriage, as it always has. This is formulated around a man and a woman because marriage is primarily designed around the idea that the couple may bear children and so needs some legal protections primarily for the sake of the children. Some people want to expand the definition of marriage to include same-sex relationships because they think its necessary for equality. That's fine, if they wan't to argue that. But referring to a "ban" where a "ban" doesn't exist just inflames the issue and serves partisans on the liberal side. Here's a recent example, from TIME Magazine, discussing a meeting with Rick Santorum: "He suggested those who wanted to change laws prohibiting same-sex marriage faced the burden of showing why that was necessary." http://swampland.time.com/2012/01/06/heated-exchange-exposes-santorums-h... Arrghh. What laws prohibit same-sex marriage? If Newsbusters doesn't address this issue, who will?

Rick Santorum falls into Media (& CNN) duping on interview. Santorum now Ron Paul expert?

By tombaker | December 28, 2011 | 18:33

I am watching this interview with Rick Santorum and CNN Wolf Blitzer right now. Instead of simply saying. I am running for President, obviously I believe that my ideas and policies are a better solution and believe that voters should vote from me. then on the obvious follow-up, "Wolf, lets talk about my policies, I am sure that you will have Ron Paul on and he will be able to explain his positions to you, I am offering voters a much better solution. Easy, an just move on, this is Santorum's responsibility. Instead, the first 8 minutes Rick speaks entirely on Ron Paul. The 2nd segment, is all about what Rick thinks of Romney and Perry. 3rd segment he again speaks to other candidate positions. Santorum COULD have controlled as an executive should the direction of the interview, instead he just gets lead along. Reminds me of when Ron Paul was on meet the press and all he did was answer question on Newt and others. Pathetic that Santorum can not handle biased MSM, as if he has not figured out they have an agenda....Breaking News Rick.....you got played.

Gingrich thinktank

By Bhaal | November 18, 2011 | 09:19

Does the wording of the report on Gingrich's think tank seem odd? "A think tank founded by GOP presidential candidate Newt Gingrich collected at least $37 million over the past eight years from major health-care companies and industry groups..." Why would it not be reported as "Think tank was paid at least 37 mill by health-care companies"? Collected has a negative sound to it. Perhaps a calculated attempt to make it appear negative. Like the tactic magzines use with darkening a picture to make it look ominous.

Christians are Murdered in America too

By alaphiah | October 14, 2011 | 08:57

Anita Perry, campaigning for husband Rick Perry in South Carolina, suggests he's been "brutalized" by the media and the GOP because of his faith. Perry is the most religiously expressive candidate in the Republican field. He hosted a seven-hour Christian prayer rally in August in advance of entering the presidential race. And at last week's Values Voters Summit, he was introduced by a Dallas Baptist pastor --Wayne Slater President Barry Hussein Soetoro had it right when he said, “This is no longer a Christian nation.” Appallingly at a time when Christians are being murdered all around the world but particularly in the Middle East and Africa we are now witnessing what amounts to the spilling of Christian blood in America. I would even go as far to say America is now an anti-Christian nation. Read more ... Creating Orwellian Worldview

The Tribesman-in- Chief

By alaphiah | October 13, 2011 | 09:36

In president, Barry Hussein Soetoro’s book “Dreams from my Father” the president establishes that like his father he is an anti-colonialist. That’s important because president Soetoro views Europe and America as Colonial powers that must be divested of the wealth that they acquired from exploiting third world countries.

Do the Math on Obama’s Failed Jobs bill vote.

By Rukus | October 12, 2011 | 13:01

Let's do the math on alaphiah's failed attempt to co-opt NB's forum know as "Latest News" as his own blog. We have managed to bring his page one blog advertising (aka-spamming) percentage down from 68% to 44% as of this post. But he's still spamming away.

Anyone reading this, duplicate one of his topic headings and make your own post about, well, whatever tickles your funny bone. After you save your post go to his and post something, anything, say for instance 'Spam' on the subject line then a '.' in the body and save. You will now have his spam post with your anti-spam dupe right below it.

This could be lot's of fun. Say NO to spammers!  ; )

Obama Apologizes to Slain Terrorist’s Family

By Archie1234 | October 12, 2011 | 00:39

Obama Apologizes to Slain Terrorist’s Family Obama’s State Department (run by Hillary Clinton) has contacted the family of al-Qaeda propagandist and recruiter Samir Khan to "express its condolences" to his family. Samir Khan a right hand man to Anwar al-Awlaki, was killed along with his jihadist buddy in an air strike in Yemen that took place on September 30. I am a bit curious..... Did the President (FDR) apologize to the families of John Dillinger or Bonnie Parker & Clyde Barrow? They were killed by agents of the US government because they were criminals...... no difference with Anwar al-Awalaki. right? The difference here is the hypocrisy of it all. John Dillinger, Bonnie Parker & Clyde Barrow had outstanding arrest warrants signed by a Court of Law. John Dillinger was shot and killed July 22 1934 by Law Enforcement attempting to enforce a legal arrest warrant by arresting him. He pulled a weapon and attempted to flee but was shot three times and killed according to the official report. We all know he was most likely ambushed. Like John Dillinger, Bonnie Parker & Clyde Barrow also had legal arrest warrants signed by a Court of Law. Like John Dillinger Bonnie and Clyde died in an ambush on May 23 1934. In the years after the ambush, Prentiss Oakley, who all six possemen agree fired the first shots that killed Bonnie and Clyde was reported to have been troubled by his actions. He often admitted to his friends that he had fired prematurely and he was the only posse member to express regret publicly. Samir Khan was killed during the assassination of Anwar al-Awalaki (a US Citizen). Samir khan was not directly targeted during this assassination. An assassination ordered by Barrack Obama. I ask, is this the same Barrack Obama that accused President George W. Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, members of their staff of inhumane treatment of terrorists by using enhanced interrogation techniques, unlawful detention of terrorists at Club Gitmo without trial? Obama has been in charge for three years and there still have been no trials! I ask, is this the same Barack Obama that ordered his thug attorney general Eric Holder to prosecute the very CIA Agents that interrogated three terrorists using enhanced interrogation techniques. Interrogations that led to further development of information resulting in the assassination of Osama Bin Laden also assassinated by order of Barrack Obama. I ask, is this the same Barrack Obama that wanted to close Club Gitmo and have civilian trials for these bastards in the same city that suffered the loss of 3000 innocent people? Unlike Prentiss Oakley, this Barrack Obama assassin has no remorse. He likes it. He is taking the easy road. The Chicago Way. Given Obama's past of Blaming Bush, surely he can't attempt to capture terrorists and send them to Gitmo. He would look like a Fool therefore he assassinates. Can anyone tell me when was the last time an American President ordered the assassination of an American Citizen with or without due process of law? Can anyone tell me what other President used a Death Commission to vet it's citizens for assassination? Given that Anwar al-Awlaki deserved his final outcome. What sickens me............ is the hypocrisy of it all! (Hope this is not the same Death Commission planned for Obamacare) Obama Apologizes to Slain Terrorist’s Family and that outrages people as it should. I ask, Have you heard Obama apologize for the false accusations and punitive actions he orchestrated or ordered others to take against our brave CIA agents, civil service staff and members of the military while in performance of their official duties? False accusations made solely for political purposes! NO! So, I submit Is the difference here is the hypocrisy of it all? I ask, What are YOU doing right now to ensure this is a ONE TERM MISTAKE? The difference here is the hypocrisy of it all. Almost 50 % of Americans still support this guy! Archie Nalbandian

Scandals Rock the Obama White house Media remains silent

By alaphiah | October 11, 2011 | 09:05

You remember Abu Ghraib where pictures supposedly showed prisoner abuse. You remember Guantanamo Bay prison where prisoners of war were being held during the active war (the war is still ongoing) they were engaged in before capture. You recall the Patriot Act where certain ones among us went nuts because they claimed Bush was violating Constitutional guarantees of privacy. Well the Baghdad Central Prison formerly known as Abu Ghraib is still open, Guantanamo Bay Prison is still open and the Patriot Act is still functioning. These were all supposedly scandals under the Bush administration so what has changed. Read more... Creating Orwellian Worldview

Occupy Insanity

By alaphiah | October 10, 2011 | 08:53

In some of the most extraordinary video taken at the Occupy movement that is being orchestrated across the nation last week, at the Occupy Atlanta event the protestors attempt to reach consensus to have Civil Rights legend Congressman John Lewis address the crowd. In some of the funniest video that you will ever see and in what Occupy Atlanta believes to be true democratic process Representative Lewis is actually denied the opportunity to address the crowd.

Obama removes all Doubt

By Rukus | October 10, 2011 | 01:57

"removes all Doubt"?  Isn't that the same as No Doubt? Why, yes it is!  

I remember them!  They were 1-hit "wonders"!  Kinda like Barry and, well, y'all know.

So how about those 1-hit wonders from yesteryear like this guy.  And does anybody remember these guys?  I thought these guys would go somewhere. And who could forget this? And good Lord! It's a good thing this didn't go much further! Probably one of the best one-hits ever!.

Ok, y'all get the hint. Have at it!
