Quote of the Moment: Who has killed more innocents?

"Here is an uncomfortable pop quiz: Who has killed more children, Adam Lanza or Barack Obama?" - Judge Andrew Napolitano

Obama on Trayvon Martin - Rampant Hypocrisy!

I have been watching the media circus concerning the very disturbing incident that occurred in Sanford, Florida recently. It has been impossible to stay away from, because the shooting of the young man, Trayvon Martin, has become the headline story on virtually every single media outlet. I have hesitated to write about this subject, and will not comment on the case itself, but it has been sensationalized almost beyond imagination. This could not have happened without the mainstream media, and its drive to build a national story at any cost.

My questions would not concentrate on any racial implications because that should be irrelevant, and because the untimely death of anyone, regardless of color, is always a tragedy. So why is almost all the coverage based on white versus black or black versus white?

I would ask, why should the color of one’s skin matter, and why should any greater importance be placed on such a shallow and obvious race-related conclusion? Aren’t we all the same in that we are all human beings? Aren’t we all born with the same natural rights? Don’t we all live on this earth together? Do any of us have any say as to where we are born, or what color we are? Do any of us deserve more favorable consideration simply due the consequences of our birth and heritage? Would race be such a big issue without the agitators, the politicians, and the media’s continuous stirring of the pot of hatred of one group over another? In the scheme of things, is one man’s life worth more than another man’s life, simply due to the color of his skin? Only the truth should matter, except for those with an agenda, and something to gain from the pain of others.

What is really happening here? Is this story real or is it staged? What happened is real, but those who wish to gain something from the death of this young man have staged most of the rest. Those I speak of are not interested in finding out the truth, and they are not interested in the deceased or his family, they are only interested in themselves and in gaining an audience.

Who are these parasites? They are all different colors, and they are from the left and from the right, but they are all the same. They are users, and they are users with an agenda. Regardless whether they are in the media, in politics, or just agitators looking to cause a racial divide among us, they all come out for the cameras, and for the notoriety they seek. They are much like scavengers who seem to gravitate to any place where they are assured they can gain attention and cause trouble.

And of course, the president himself, Barrak Obama, the king of all politicians, also came forward to speak to the nation about this particular incident. His words and gestures were the epitome of agenda driven politics. As usual, his phrases were carefully chosen, and delivered in such a manner as to invoke false pity. He even made the comment: "My main message is to the parents of Trayvon Martin. You know, if I had a son, he’d look like Trayvon." With this statement, he placed himself, metaphorically speaking, into the Martin family, while at the same time using the death of this young man as a political ploy to raise his poll numbers. What a narcissistic display by this pathetic political performer!

There are on average about 61,000 murders in the U.S. each year, with about half of those due to gunshot wounds. Many more deaths occur for other reasons every day, but Obama chose this single case to take on personally, and spoke about it to the entire nation. Why just this one incident? Why did he not feign sympathy for any of the many other deaths that occur in this country? Why does he not feign sympathy for the deaths of those innocents murdered overseas by American forces, forces that he commands?

Obama’s hypocrisy here is beyond the pale, and is beyond the imagination of any moral thinking person. This president has taken the aggressive wars started during the Bush administration, and dramatically expanded the carnage. He has presided over more aggressive interference and war in Egypt, Pakistan, Libya, Yemen, and Syria, while threatening Iran and other countries. His regime and its military have murdered thousands upon thousands of innocent civilians in the Middle East. The recent attack in southern Afghanistan by a U.S. soldier was a literal slaughter of families, including little children while they slept. All this, but not a whisper of real sympathy was ever forthcoming from Obama about any of those deaths, except in the form of ‘blood money’ to pay off those relatives of slain family members in Afghanistan.

In October of last year, Obama boasted of the assassination of an American citizen, Anwar al-Awlaki in Yemen. Two weeks later, the assassination of al-Awlaki’s 16-year-old son, an American citizen, took place, and his 17-year-old cousin, and nine other young innocent people died in that deliberate attack. Al-Awlaki’s son was the third American purposely murdered by the U.S. government in this two-week period. None were given any benefit of trial or due process, and no sympathy was forthcoming.

Does Obama really care about the deaths of innocent people, including children? Apparently, he wants the masses of apathetic state worshipers (voters) in this country to think so, or why would he specifically choose the Martin boy’s death as his personal cause? There have been many thousands of deaths of civilians overseas, and there are over 60,000 murders that occur in this country every single year, but he chose only one to speak about. Why?

The answer of course is obvious. This is pure hypocrisy! But it is not just hypocrisy, but also political grandstanding used for Obama’s personal gain, this at the expense of the truth. What in the world has become of humility, real sympathy, sensitivity, morality, and honesty? What has become of love for one another? What has become of sanity? I can tell you that none of these things exist in the White House, and none exist in most of the mainstream media.

All those who would use a "convenient" death to benefit themselves at the expense of others, who would attempt to advance an agenda of hate, and who would use their position to do these things, are calculating and without principle. I concentrate on Obama here, not because he is alone, but because of his powerful position. His behavior, behavior that is also shared by those who support him, and those who would act as he acts, is beyond contempt, and should serve as evidence of the continuing decline of this society!

Sheriff Joe vs. B.O.

Old Joe "pink underpants" Arpaio says he's got him some good stuff on Obama, tons of good stuff, in fact.

“I’m not going after the president to keep him off a ballot or anything else, but that could happen,” Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio said. “I’m going at it strictly as a law-enforcement guy investigating a possible forgery and fraud. I’m sticking with that, but I’ll tell you one thing. We got tons of other information that could be very shocking, too, but I’m sticking now with just the [forgery] investigation and possible criminal violations.”-Sheriff Joe: 'Tons' more shocking Obama info


It's getting personal! Sheriff Joe has had enough!

The Republican sheriff now claims that Obama’s Selective Service registration form from 1980 was likely a forgery as well. Arpaio has asked Selective Service System Director Lawrence Romo to produce the original form so he can determine if it is authentic.-Arpaio asks Selective Service System for assistance in ‘birther’ investigation




Glenn Beck (a nutter himself) doesn't like this whole development, saying Sheriff Joe had handed Obama a "gift": “Okay. Look, I am a fan of Sheriff Joe Arpaio. I am a guy who has supported him in the past. I like him, I… I think he’s great on illegal immigration. But Joe, have you gone nuts?”-Huh? Sheriff Joe Arpaio gives Obama 2012 a gift, goes after birth certificate

Now, some on the right don't take kindly to Beck's "betrayal" of birtherism or as it may now be known, "documentism", as witness this:

BECK IS AN UNENTERTAINING MORON!...Arpaio's press conference went far beyond the birth certificate to include Obama's fraudulent Selective Service registration, missing INS records for international airline travel in the 8/1-10/1961 time frame, as well as the Connecticut Social Security number that Obama claims as his (the one that failed E-Verify!). Beck brings up the canard about the newspaper birth announcements. They were triggered by the registration of baby Obama's 'Hawaiian' birth at the Department of Health which generated the Certification of Live Birth (not birth certificate), the only document proffered by Obama and his henchmen until the April 2011 bombshell. -Free Republic

The Right Way, The Wrong Way, and Obama’s Way

It has been a while since I have criticized President Obama, mostly because its too easy, but it is good to remember why the guy is such a big walking waste of human space and air.

Let’s start out with Jack Tapper’s confrontation with Press Secretary:

So basically, President Obama, who promised open government, has decided to prosecute whistleblowers in his own ranks.  This is a very dangerous precedent that is unheard of before as not even President Bush pulled this stunt against his own.  It is no wonder that the establishment wants Mitt Romney and wants Obama out: he’s hunting down their own.

Another broken promise that Obama has made is his promise to close down the Guantanamo Bay prisons.  Now, I know you can make excuses all you want, but the truth is he is the president and he could have made any state take those men and could have the freed the others.  Hell, he could have even killed them all with bullets drenched in pigs blood if he wanted, as he has already demonstrated his willingness to kill US citizens overseas for supposed subversive activity.

On that topic, President Obama has basically become judge, jury, and executioner when he had Anwar al-Awlaki killed by a Predator drone.  He then had the man’s sixteen year old son killed, who was just looking for his father and was eating barbeque at the time of his death.  The justification for the son’s death was that he was afraid he would join forces with a terror cell in response to his father’s death.  In other words, President Obama has acted just as a brutal tyrant would.  Meanwhile, nobody cares that a mother is crying over the loss of her sixteen year old boy and her husband due to some flimsy, half-assed justification.

On the domestic front, President Obama has become good buddies with the CEO of GE, Jeffrey Immelt.  Suddenly, incandescent light bulbs are illegal while GE owns the patent on the compact fluorescent lamp, but there is nothing wrong with that, right?  I mean, if the president wants us all to be more environmentally friendly and enrich himself and Jeffrey Immelt at our expense.

Jeffrey Immelt became the jobs czar (the mere fact that we have czars who are unaccountable to the people and Congress makes me sick) and subsequently moved a lot of his manufacturing to China.  Talk about a scumbag.  I suppose there was nothing shady in that deal either.

Gas prices are going now too, more than likely as a result of several factors:

  1. The various quantitative easings that have been taking place.  I have my doubts, though, as to the purported impact of expansion of the money supply only because there is much less consumer and business debt right now.
  2. The closing of off-shore oil drilling due to the regulators blunder with British Petroleum and the inevitable oil spill that resulted.  Basically, BP was allowed leeway on their safety inspections, probably in exchange for bribes, and this resulted in the oil spill and explosion.
  3. The coming war with Iran.  President Obama has insisted on going to war with yet another Muslim nation and has ordered naval forces into harms way as a means to provoke them into attacking in order to justify the war.  And we’re supposed to think that this warmongering has nothing to do with the rise in the cost of oil?

Let us not forget that President Obama is prosecuting legalized marijuana now as well, something he said he would not do.  Of course, I am sure he has good reason for it.

The list could gone on and on about President Obama’s hypocrisy and downright tyranny, which is much, much worse than President Bush’s was.  I am not a fan of President Bush (I used to be) as he did everything the wrong way.  It made no sense and his primary solutions to problems was more government.  None of these solutions worked, by the way, as the Muslim world hates us even more, our economy is still in shambles, and the police state has gotten worse.

Yet for the bad things that President Bush has done, President Obama has gone the extra mile.  It is the Obama Way: the wrong way but much faster.

Obama Smiling Over Low U.S. Wages

Well, the bankster puppet in the White House may as well be smiling (he's probably ecstatic as all hell) as these statistics are just what his pro-corporate, neoliberal policies ordered.


Since 2000, real wages (adjusted for inflation) have declined. The White House even touts this horrid statistic in its just released paper, Investing in America: Building an Economy That Lasts. Clearly, the paper is not intended for the rank and file. It outlines how current policies are making America competitive with low-wage countries like China. And one of the principal strategies is ... lowering wages.-White House Touts Falling Wages

Obama Ready to Sign Indefinite Detention Without Trial of Americans Act

Legislation that will let President Obama and future leaders of America detain and torture Americans indefinitely has made it to the White House, where it is expected to be soon signed into law by the commander-in-chief.

-Indefinite detention and torture act arrives at White House


Of course, some bloggers are more riled up about old newsletters than they are about basic civil liberties disappearing NOW. How can you tell? Why, it's easy (just check for the number of posts they've made on each).

Cenk Uygar Prefers Ron Paul over Warmonger-in-Chief O-bomb-a

In the video below, Uygar is seriously considering that he would prefer Ron Paul as Peacemaker-in-Chief over the current "liberal" Warmonger-in-Chief O-bomb-a. Uygar also gives strong arguments as to why a left-wing person who may not agree with all of Ron Paul's views should still like him for what Uygar believes are the most important positions that Ron Paul holds for left-wingers: ending the foreign wars, protecting civil liberties, and ending the war on drugs.-LRC Blog: Obama Apostate Cenk Uygar Is Starting To Prefer Ron Paul Over Obamanable





Left-wing TV political commentator Cenk Uygar rips into the current Warmonger-in-Chief about the Fascist National Defense Authorization Act that was passed by the Congress. He says all of the things that we classical liberals have been saying for the past three years about George W. Obama's fascistic increases in the dictatorial powers of the presidency. Uygar also rightly points out that had this bill passed under the former Warmonger-in-Chief, George Dumbya Bush, the left would have been screaming about it.-Left-Winger Cenk Uygar Becomes an Obama Apostate


"Al Franken voted for this[NDAA]! What the hell did we send him to the Senate for?"

Anti-Obama Jokes of the Day

With Obama in the White House, what does the beggar's hand-written sign say?

"I'm like Obama, I want change"




I'm the fourth best president in American history ~ Barack Obama



George Washington was the father of our country.

Eh! No big deal. Barack Obama is better...at least in his own mind. Such was the laughably absurd claim of President Obama on 60 Minutes last Sunday. What? You didn't see it? That was because 60 Minutes conveniently left it out of its broadcast.-60 Minutes Broadcast Edits Out Laughable Obama Claim as 4th Best President


Obama selects FDR, Lyndon Johnson, and Lincoln as the top three US Presidents, and all three were total disasters with policies completely destructive of liberty and the Constitution...Good comparison to your disastrous and destructive, liberty destroying administration, Mr. president!

Proof Obama will sign NDAA 1031 Citizen Imprisonment Law

We have only a few days to speak up before the President signs NDAA Section 1031, permitting citizen imprisonment without evidence or trial. The bill absolutely DOES NOT exempt citizens. The text of Section 1031 reads, "A covered person under this section" includes "any person who has committed a belligerent act". This means we only have to be SUSPECTED, because we DON'T GET A TRIAL.




The ACLU, however, seems to believe otherwise, stating the "...White House has repeatedly threatened to veto the NDAA if these dangerous provisions stay in the bill."


Earlier this week we told you about Congress trying to rush a bill to the President’s desk that would authorize the military to go literally anywhere in the world to imprison civilians — even American citizens in the United States itself — without charge or trial. Prison based on suspicion alone.

But you certainly don’t need to take our word for it. In this new video, we’ve compiled some of the most disturbing statements made by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), in support of the sweeping bill.-ACLU: Help Us Stop Congress From Passing Indefinite Detention Bill!





Sen. Lindsey Graham on the fate of those Americans accused of being "enemy combatants" by the fascist regime in Washington, D.C.: "Death, detention, prosecution...and when they say 'I want my lawyer', you tell them 'Shut up!, you don't get a lawyer!'"

Sen. Graham, where is your Nazi armband with the Swastika? You forget to put it on before making your speech?
