TOLD YA!

WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama's choice of expert budget-cutter Leon Panetta to lead the Defense Department is a clear signal that the White House perceives the nation's deficit crisis, not the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, as its toughest challenge.

No, that's not from The Onion, it's from AP.
Don't know what's funnier the "expert budget cutter" part, or that the White House now sees the deficit as a problem. Unfortunately, those boys at the pentagon better strap-on their jocks!

TOO GOOD TO NOT POST!

Sitting here in North Carolina getting hammered by storm-fronts and the occasional tornado, I figured that the GREENIES will be blaming all this on global warming and the burning of fossil fuel in............5, 4, 3, 2, 1................ Yep, here we go!

THE NEW YORK TIMES...................

has set the tone for the 2012 Presidential race.
It's actually quite simple! If you don't vote for Obama, you are racist. If you question Obama, you are racist.
"That’s because the birther question was never really about citizenship; it was simply a proxy for those who never accepted the president’s legitimacy, for a toxic mix of reasons involving ideology, deep political anger and, most insidious of all, race"
Here, read for yourself.
Let's also conveniently forget the fact that Hillary was the first to raise the BIRTH issue in 2008 with an anonymous email.

I have no doubt THE DONALD will not run for President, and is the biggest publicity whore this side of Bill Clinton, but he is getting under Obama's skin.
THE DONALD pestered him and got him to release his birth certificate, which he hadn't done in order to conveniently keep the birther issue on the table. When THE DONALD brought it up, it got legitimacy, and Obama had to respond. Now THE DONALD is asking more questions. This is great!


Trump To Obama: Now Release Your College Records

OH, HOW NICE!

Washington (CNN) -- President Barack Obama will name CIA Director Leon Panetta as his nominee to succeed Robert Gates as defense secretary, a U.S. official said Wednesday.



Forget the fact that Leon isn't qualified to run the US military, what this appointment tells me is one thing. Obama is dead-set on not cutting ANYTHING in the budget.......... except the military.


Can you think of a better hatchet-man than Leon to strip 400 billion from the Pentagon?

Does the GOP know who the enemy is?

Tea party lawmakers are being targeted for elimination by their own party, as old-guard Republicans use the Census-mandated redistricting process to erase seats won by last year’s upstarts, the National Journal reports.

House freshmen from several GOP-majority states are in danger of losing out in a political realignment that rewards more connected veteran representatives. It may be cold comfort to tea partyers that the hostile redistricting process proves their point: They really don’t belong to the political establishment.

“They did not have ties with incumbents and weren’t afforded a seat at the table,” said political journalist Ed Feigenbaum.

WHERE HAVE ALL THE ANTI-WAR PROTESTORS GONE?

The anti-war movement was all over the news before President Obama was elected. But apparently they weren’t really anti-war ... they were just anti-President Bush. Two college professors just released a study of national protests between 2007 and 2009. What did they find?

… After January 2007, the attendance at antiwar rallies [measured in] roughly the tens of thousands, or thousands, through the end of 2008.

… After the election of Barack Obama as president, the order of magnitude of antiwar protests dropped [...] Organizers were hard pressed to stage a rally with participation in the thousands, or even in the hundreds. For example, we counted exactly 107 participants at a Chicago rally on October 7, 2009.

Amazing. Especially because the war in Afghanistan ramped up after Obama was elected. American fatalities shot up in 2009 and 2010.

The protesters have remained silent over Libya.

And I’m struck by the hypocrisy of the supposedly “anti-war” politicians who voted against Iraq, like Nancy Pelosi. Since Obama was elected, she has voted to continue the war in Afghanistan … and supported the attack on Libya.

When is the last time you heard anything about Iraq and the 50,000 Americans that are still there?

EH! NO BIG DEAL!

Today Standard and Poors (S&P) warned of a "possible" downgrade in US credit rating. This is unprecedented in US history, and while most people took notice, including the major markets, the Obama Administration took it as politics as usual.

"I don't think that we should make too much out of that," top White House economist Austan Goolsbee, referring to the S&P downgrade.

"What the S&P is doing is making a political judgment and it is one that we don't agree with," Ah yes, the S&P is in the business of playing politics. Yeah right!

MOTHER EARTH TO HAVE SAME RIGHTS AS HUMANS.

In the never-ending attempt to crush Capitalism, Bolivia will propose a U.N. treaty this month for the protection of what it calls nature’s fundamental rights. A “Ministry of Mother Earth” would be created, with an ombudsman to hear nature’s cries and translate them for bureaucrats.
"If you want to have balance, and you think that the only (entities) who have rights are humans or companies, then how can you reach balance?" Said Pablo Salon, Bolivia's ambassador to the UN. "But if you recognize that nature too has rights, and (if you provide) legal forms to protect and preserve those rights, then you can achieve balance." READ MORE
AAAAAAAH! So what we are talking about here is a global EPA run by the United Nations. Makes sense to me!

Is he clueless, or does not give a $hit?

Tell me that this guy is focused on our energy problems. This clown could care less.

So increasing oil production is not a short term solution but electric cars are!
And how is electricity for these wonder-cars made? Oh yeah............wind.

Obama's answer to high gas prices: F*CK YOU!

At a "town hall" meeting yesterday, Obama was asked by a man in the audience about the high price of oil. Obama responded with: “If you’re complaining about the price of gas and you’re only getting 8 miles a gallon, you know,” Obama said laughingly. “You might want to think about a trade-in.”
So if you are a rancher, plumber, carpenter, caterer, delivery-man, landscaper, roofer, electrician, contractor or you need to use a truck or van for your business, the President just told you to go F*CK yourself.

Trade in the truck, van, or vehicle you depend on for your business and buy an electric car. What an arrogant piece of $hit!

I love it when Republicans show some wit and comedy.

DRILL BABY DRILL! Eh, wait a minute............

HAVANA — Cuba on Tuesday announced plans to drill five deepwater oil wells in the Gulf of Mexico beginning this summer, expressing confidence that its efforts will be rewarded with major new energy finds. "We're about to move to the drilling phase," said Manuel Marrero, an official with the government authority tasked with overseeing Cuba's oil sector. "We're all really hopeful that we will be able to discover large reserves of oil and gas," said Marrero, who added that the ventures would be undertaken with the help of unspecified foreign companies. MORE Of course this is with the help of Chinese technology and Cuban oversight. You folks in Florida and especially the Keys have nothing to worry about.

He's morphing!

2008 strategy: RUN AS NOT-BUSH! 2012 strategy: Run as Bush Incarnate?
