Just The Facts




  • The national debt hit $16 trillion on Sept 4. It is now at $16.287. We are on track to have spent $300 billion dollars in as many months. How long can we keep up spending like this?
  • Despite claiming to be a champion for small business the Obama Administration has passed 1,773 new regulations in the last 30 days. (Find them here)
  • Obama's new buddy Morsi, the president of Egypt has just granted himself dictatorial powers that make Mubarak look like a boy scout. The Egyptian people are rioting over this and this really can't be good for Israel. (Find his new powers here)
  • As of November 2012, over 2,256 rockets had been launched at Israel from Gaza since January 2012. You can probably add another 15 or so since the "Cease Fire".
  • Hamas uses women and children as human shields, and they are proud of it. (See that here)

More Free Crap

Mitt Romney was no ones first choice to take on Obama, but he was on top at the end of the primary season and for the most part ran a solid campaign, he ran on the American classic theme of "Hard Work". But Obama ran on the much more fun "More Free Crap". It's hard for people to pass up free crap, now we know how hard. In the long run Romney was right in his 47% comment. Obama was right as well, in his '98 speech. This election was proof that the smooth talking, faux compassion, and free crap will sway the masses. More free crap is ultimately socialism and we know "The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money"- Margaret Thatcher. Obama has been on a spending spree, he's run the national debt up over $16 trillion and now looks for the largest tax increases in American history to keep his spree going.

One of the biggest flubs (or so the media says) in Romney's campaign was his 47% comment. What he said was; "There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what," He went on. "There are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe that government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you name it." Now the term "victims" insulted people. But it wasn't wrong, these people are victims of Obama's agenda, but I'll get to that in a minute. These people aren't feeling the effects of being on the bottom. Back in the day when you were poor, you felt it. You ate cheap food, if you ate. You felt the burn of having to pull out those food stamps (they were once actually like stamps) and rip at them while everyone else looked at you. You watched a small broken tv, if had one. Your clothes had holes and your shoes were worn thin. But today at the bottom you eat whatever you want, from steak to shrimp, you buy soda and cookies. Your food stamps are pre-loaded on a slick credit card that you swipe and go without the stigma. There's a flat screen tv in the living room, and a couple others throughout the house. Your clothes look like everyone else's, they don't know you got them at Marshall's. Now we even have Obamaphones. The hard times just aren't hard anymore. So why give up more free crap. Romney's great America though commitment, sacrifice and hard work sounds so... hard.


If you don't like the thought of using the poor as political pawns, Obama was the wrong choice. In 1998 at Loyola  Obama said he viewed welfare recipients and “the working poor” as “a majority coalition” that could be mobilized to help advance progressive policies and elect their champions. So by his thought, he would need a "majority" of people in the welfare rolls to manipulate them into voting the way he wants. That is exactly what he did. He pummeled the middles class, shrinking it, sending more and more into his "majority coalition".  Don't forget the number of people applying for welfare every month is equal to or more than the number of jobs created. Mitt was right, but that won't change the need for more free crap.

I used the Thatcher quote above about OPM (other people's money), and that will be the failing of this experiment in socialism over the long run. It's what caused the Soviet Union to fall and what shifted China into this quasi-capitalist/socialist mash up. You can only rely on OPM for so long, the wealthy in this country will only give so much before they leave. The countries lending us money will only continue to do so for a few more credit downgrades before we are not worth investing in. More free crap is the sham, cause as we all know nothing is free! Someone is paying. Obamacare in not free healthcare, foodstamps are not free food, mandated birth control and abortions are not free. We can't keep inflating the stock market with printed money. Want proof? Click that link and watch how fast those dollars tick away, that has to be paid. Maybe not in the next 4 year when it is likely to jump up to $22trillion, but by our kids, grand kids and many generations after them. We are piling them down decades before they are born.

With the fiscal cliff fast approaching with unprecedented tax increases along with massive cuts to defense and medicare spending, we are responsible for keeping Obama in office. Now we will have to pay the price, and I promise when the free is gone all we'll have left is more crap.

He Had One Job

And FAILED!

So the primary job of the POTUS is to protect it's citizens. He is not our boss, he works for us. Obama had one job to do and failed. Protecting the lives of Americans is first and foremost, time and time again Obama has proved he is not capable of doing his job. Be it in Libya or right here in the CONUS (continental United States). 

Lets start right here at home. After the Obama admin took over in 2009, new AG Eric Holder revived a failed gunwalking program from the Bush admin. Operation Fast and Furious was "supposed" to help track guns going from the US to Mexico. Though the Obama admin had none of the tracking tools used by previous admin and the operation quickly turned into thousands of US guns disappearing into Mexico and subsequently used to kill HUNDREDS of Mexican Citizens. On December 14, 2010 US Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry was killed on US soil by what was found out to be one of the guns lost by FF. The Obama admin brushed the whole story away, the MSM ignored the story as much as possible and ridiculed anyone who brought it up. TO THIS DAY, AG Eric Holder has NOT answered for the death of Agent Terry and the Obama admin pretends not to even know Terry's name. This failure of the administration to protect American life should have been the last, but no.


On 9/11/2012 in Benghazi Libya an attack by an Al Qaeda associated group on a US Consulate with NO formal security took the lives of four Americans. US Ambassador Chris Stevens, Embassy worker Sean Smith, CIA operatives and former Navy SEALs Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods. This well planned and coordinated attack took place over seven hours. Mr.Smith was the first to die, then Ambassador Stevens was sexually assaulted and asphyxiated to death. While that was taking place CIA assets Doherty and Woods were a few blocks away, seeing the smoke coming form the burning consulate they radioed for authority to engage the terrorist, rescue the consulate workers and asked for back up. THREE times they were told to "Stand Down" and do nothing. When they couldn't take doing nothing any longer both men engaged the mob and killed 60 terrorist before losing their lives heroically. Woods died while "painting" a group of terrorist firing a mortar as a target with a laser meant to give air support a target to shoot at. But nothing happened, within minutes the terrorist spotted Woods and turned the mortar on his position and killed him. The Obama admin first lied and said the mob was a "spontaneous" outbreak of violence due to a "video" on youtube insulting the prophet (child rapist and all around scumbag) muhammad. This LIE went on for almost 3 weeks before it became very clear what had happened and very slowly the admin started changing it's story. TO THIS DAY the Obama admin has not answered why Woods and Doherty's request were denied and why during the seven hours of hell on 9/11/12 in Benghazi that was streaming LIVE into the White House NO EFFORT was made to save the 4 men who died that day. A seasoned veteran Woods would have only "painted" a target with a laser if he knew there was an aircraft nearby to lay down fire. Those men were left behind to be slaughtered like pigs. WE DON'T DO THAT! At least we didn't before Obama.

This creepy Obama flag kind of looks like the bloody handprint  left  behind in  Libya.

Barack Obama has demonstrated time after time that he does not care about what happens in this country. Be it by running up the National Debt over $16,000,000,000,000, residing over 2 downgrade of our national credit rating, sitting by while 23million Americans sit unemployed or worst of all ignoring the deaths of Americans serving their Country. We cannot afford four more years of this insanity. IT HAS TO STOP! DO YOUR PART ON NOV. 6. VOTE FOR REAL CHANGE! VOTE ROMNEY/RYAN '12!

The Crumbling Obama

After watching the three presidential debates I have figured out why Obama's campaign is failing. Obama's persona is a big issue, along with the people he's surrounded himself with. Then there is also the media's complicity in the whole thing, which despite being in the tank for Obama I think turned out to be his worst enemy. The last four years have been very telling, having a record to run on (or run from) is a definite factor as well.

In 2008 Obama was a virtual unknown in the world of politics. A jr senator from Illinois he came out of nowhere and exploded on the scene with a cult of personality that just overpowered the well known Hillary Clinton in the primary and made John McCain the stereotypical picture of the Republican party, stuffy, old, white, male. Obama saw this explosion and took advantage of being an unknown, He could be whatever people wanted him to be. He was young, mixed race, had a strong voice and a name that rebellious young liberals knew would piss off their fathers. We had people saying Obama was going to pay off their homes, cars, college loans, Obama himself said that he would end racial tensions in America and would make us loved all over the world on day one. No one cared he had never held a real job, no one read the books on who his father was and where he came from. People were caught up in the cult and never stopped to ask if Obama was qualified to be President of the United States. You couldn't oppose him, if anyone asked questions you were shouted down as a racist and dismissed. When he hid his college records or distanced himself from the church he sat in for 20 years it made no difference. Nothing could penetrate the cult. But this developed into a weakness no one would see for four years. Obama like the late Michael Jackson had surrounded himself by yes-men, every word he said, no matter how absurd, was praised. When he put on a funny southern accent it was charming, when he made fun of how old McCain was, he was witty.  I'm sure someone even snatched a tissue he sneezed in as a keepsake.

Obama's halo was part of the media's cult image.

Hillary got different treatment.


The mainstream media was complicit in the cult of Obama. They ran with Obama's "Hope and Change" slogan. They swooned, they tingled, they fainted, they slobbered all over themselves to make Obama the sure thing. They even went so far as to bash Clinton, who early on was their golden girl. Remember the halo pictures? The MSM did everything they could to make him untouchable, again using the race card to push down detractors. Obama was their messiah and just like the public, did no vetting of who Obama was. This inflated Obama's ego. Nothing he did caused any strife and he loved every second. But this may be part of his downfall. Now when the media questions him he looks shocked. He seems insulted that anyone would dare question his previously unchallenged intelligence. It's just like raising kids. You can't let them win all the time, you can't tell them they're smart when they answer 2+2 wrong. If you do the child acts petulant and spoiled. Just like Obama at the debates. By never challenging him they turned him into what we see today. The problem is you can't fool all the people all the time.

After four years of Obama's policies the Country is in the slowest recovery in American history, if you believe the recession ended in June 2009 like the administration told us. Obama promised so much in 2008 it should be no surprise that he couldn't get much of it done. But what he didn't do is the least of our problems.  We have big problems and as much as Obama wants you to believe it's Bush's fault, the blame lies squarely on Obama's shoulders. The most stand out of Obama's responsibilities is the national debt. In 2008 when Obama took office the ND was $10 trillion, but a mere 4 years later is $16 trillion. Ignoring Obama's promise to halve the debt by the end of his first term, he has run wild with spending. He once said that the $4 trillion Bush added to the debt in 8 years was unpatriotic. Now he tells us that we have to spend our way out of debt, which if anyone else tried would end up on the street if not jail. Obama took Bush's bail-outs to the next level, not just banks, he bailed out the auto industry, he bailed out "green" energy companies, states, and even some companies that aren't even in America. There's Obamacare, a bill no one wanted but congress pushed through. Then there is the jobs, Obama told us that without his bail-outs the unemployment would shoot up to 8%, he told us by now we'd be somewhere around 5%. Problem is the bail-out was a complete failure, unemployment shot up over 10% and now heavily adjusted we sit at 7.8%. There are over 22.6 million unemployed today, but the number the admin uses is 11 million. They don't count people who have been unemployed so long they have given up looking all together. Obama  has started a line of quantitative easing that led to 2 downgrades of our national credit rating. While these QE's have been holding up the stock market, its a bubble that will burst when the money stops flowing from the government. Economic growth has been stagnant and this is making us look weak across the globe. Iran's dictator has questioned how much longer we can be a superpower with the debt we have. But that is the tip of the iceberg in his foreign policy failures. He let Egypt and Libya fall under the rule of radical islamist, he looked the other way during the iranian green revolution. He sits by while Syria slaughters its own and puts "daylight between the US and Israel". He betrayed our allies Great Britain  Japan, and Poland while bowing to dictators and communist and telling Russian President Medvedev to transmit to Putin that he will be more flexible after the election.

We cannot afford 4 more years of Barack Obama, not in our economy, and not in our national security. We should have been told who he was before he took the most powerful position on the Earth. We needed the MSM to do its job not foist on us an unqualified jr Senator. But now we know, we know who he is, we know what his plans are and we know what he cares about, HIMSELF. We have the ability to stop this train wreck halfway through, we can save ourselves from the rest of Obama's policies and ideas. Ultimately it will be easy, just vote. Vote for Mitt Romey, vote for real change. Change we can believe in.

Just Stating

The facts;


  • This day in 2008 the national debt was $10.3 trillion, today it's $16.05 trillion
  • This day in 2008 actual unemployment numbers were 13 million, today 23 million.
  • This day in 2008 there were 32 million on food stamps, today 47 million.
  • This day in 2008 gas was $3.61 in California, today it's $4.21.
  • This time in 2008 there were 1.1 million federal employees, today there are more than 2.5 million.
  • We haven't passed a budget in the U.S. for the last 1,240 (+or - a few) days.
  • This time in 2008 Bush's operation "Wide Receiver" with the help of the Mexican govt. had zero fatalities, electronically tagged guns were recovered and was ceased. Today Obama's operation "Fast and Furious" without informing the Mexican govt. has funneled thousands of guns to Cartels, killed hundreds of Mexican citizens and at least 1 U.S. Border Patrol agent and is ceased.
  • This time in 2008 the Middle East was a mess, but we had Egypt as an ally and though Gaddafi was a pest he had stopped pursuing nuclear weapons. Today Egypt is an islamic republic that Obama says is not an ally and Libya is in chaos, having stormed the U.S. Embassy and murdered the Ambassador.
  • The US GDP growth rate was 3.6 at this time in 2007, it is 1.7 now.
Obama said himself, 



His "One term proposition" is in effect, his administration has been a disaster, the lack of leadership is astonishing and it is time for a new direction. It's time to fill the chair and the suit...

One Day Later

Yesterday on the anniversary of 9/11, I warned you about the constant hate in the muslim world. Mere minutes after I submitted that post I started getting tweets about Egyptians storming our embassy in Cairo. Muslims burned our flag and shouted "There are a billion of us Obama, we are all Osama". This is a clue that the stupid muhammad movie has nothing to do with this. This was a coordinated attack on the anniversary of the biggest victory any enemy has ever had against the United States. An attack that started in a country Obama handed to the muslim brotherhood after an "arab spring" that was a peaceful uprising for the first 20 minutes. Twenty minutes after that I knew it was just a matter of time before Egypt was a islamic republic. 

A few hours after the embassy attack in Egypt, it happened again in Benghazi Libya. Except the embassy in Egypt had a heads up on the attack and was cleared out before the violence started. The embassy in Benghazi was not so lucky. The also recently "freed from the tyranny of Qaddafi" Libyans stormed our embassy, burned it down and murdered Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three of his staff. I opted yesterday not to show you graphic photos, but its a new day and maybe you didn't get everything I was trying to tell you yesterday. 

That is the body of US Ambassador Christopher Stevens, being desecrated by islamist who murdered him and dragged his body through the streets for 12 hours. Yes it took 12 hours to recover his body. Now my heart goes out to his family and I am sure they don't want to see their husband, father, son, uncle or brother like this. But you need to. You need to see what we are up against. This is not some council of Christian parents writing letters to Nickelodeon because Jason Biggs is an animal who doesn't belong on children's television. This is a group if islamist who are working right out of their holy text to "smite infidels at their necks." While Stevens was suffocated to death, many others have been beheaded by dull knives while they are still alive. I watched Daniel Pearl die, no one should ever have to go like that. 

We have to wise up and stop this. The apology issued by the embassy in Egypt that was released before any violence had taken place is just another notch in the belt of the islamist that are out to see us destroyed. This muhammad movie was screened one time in Los Angeles months ago, the "Israeli Jew" that made it Sam Bacile doesn't exist. Looks like now the movie was funded by "evangelics and copts". The real question is who gave it to the Egyptians and why?  The more of this whole situation that comes into the light the worse it looks. Well planned, coordinated and probably funded by the muslim brotherhood. We have to show them we are not a "paper tiger" and we will fight. Since we know Obama has no interest if this fight he needs to go. Do I know exactly what Mitt Romney will do? No, but I do know what Obama will do, nothing. He will let Iran have nuclear weapons, he will let the muslim brotherhood take over nations that were once considered allies, he will leave our border porous and open to any kind of illegal activity you can dream of. Former Admiral Mike Mullen has said that "our national debt is the biggest threat to national security", and that was trillions of dollars ago.

This election is shaping up to be one of the most important of our time, but don't take my word on it. Look at the facts, unemployment, the national debt, the US credit rating, the border, taxes, foreign policy! We can't afford continue absorbing this kind of damage to our country. In 53 days we either take back our nation or we give it away. You Decide!
