House Speaker John Boehner: ‘This House has Acted’!

Boehner from the House floor:

"I stuck my neck out a mile to try to get an agreement with the President of the United States…I stuck my neck out a mile. And I put revenues on the table in order to try to come to an agreement to avert us being where we are. Well a lot of people in this town can never say yes. A lot of people can never say yes. This house has acted. And it is time for the administration and time for our colleagues across the aisle, put something on the table! Tell us where you are!"

The question remains, do we really want President Obama do do anything....else? He needs to either lead, follow or get out of the way entirely! I pray he chooses the later.

Government Unions and the Bankrupting of America!

Check it out folks: Now available at Amazon.com: "Government Unions and the Bankrupting of America" by Daniel DiSalvo. This book arms you with everything you need to know about the ongoing debate over government employee unions and our states' budget battles.


Government-workers unions have been political juggernauts in the U.S. since the collective bargaining rights revolution of the 1960s and 70s. In this video, Daniel DiSalvo exposes how these unions have created cartels with their political allies, mostly in the Democratic Party, to the detriment of the taxpaying public.

Nancy Pelosi: Foolish, ignorant or just plain dumb!

Nancy Pelosi is either foolish, ignorant or just plain dumb. There is no other explanation for what she said to a crowd of union workers on Capitol Hill on Tuesday (video here) where she actually had the gall to say the following:

“This isn’t just about them saying we should reduce the deficit,” she said, “This is an excuse. The budget deficit is an excuse for the Republicans to undermine government plain and simple. They don’t just want to make cuts, they want to destroy. They want to destroy food safety, clean air, clean water, the department of education. They want to destroy your rights.”

Yet it is Nancy Pelosi and her ilk who continue to raise YOUR taxes! It is her liberal government which continues to take a increasingly larger and larger amount of your paycheck to distribute it as they see fit with little to no accountability. What do you call this? DESTRUCTION of freedom, that's what you call it! We are frogs who are slowly being boiled alive. The Obama administration wants to DESTROY your ability to purchase food for your family with more of your salary being siphoned off to pay taxes. They control the air you breath and the water you drink with regulation after regulation. It is your current government who want to destroy your rights, not Conservative Republicans. We stand for free enterprise, limited government, individual freedom, traditional American values, and a strong national defense.

“They do not like the government,” Pelosi continued. “They’re riding an engine of popular support for, ok we have to reduce the deficit. And they’re using that to destroy.”

“The Speaker has said that between him and the president they have a different vision of America and that’s how come their budget proposals are different,” she sad. “Quite different…We get the sacrifice, they get the wealth.”

We like government, Ms. Pelosi, just not yours. We love the government established by our Founding Father's and would appreciate your respect and esteem for it. When I read 2 Peter 2:17, I think of you Ms. Pelosi: These are springs without water and mists driven by a storm. I ask the following out of genuine concern: Are all those Botox treatments clouding your mind? Your ridiculous statements might be the result of chemical seepage. I'm just saying!

If you happen to agree with Ms Pelosi "The Destroyer", I encourage you to leave a comment with your explanation.....then seek professional help.

I close on a positive note. Nancy Pelosi says that the $2 trillion healthcare bill is really a jobs bill. Well, even Bill Clinton can't take her seriously:

Shame on YOUR debt, President Obama!

As I watched President Obama's Speech from the White House last night (7-25-11), I found myself shaking my head from side to side asking myself what ever happened to the promised hope and change of the Obama candidacy. How has our once prosperous country progressed to the very brick of bankruptcy?

One needs to first ask who's really to blame for the deficit. The answer is any President and/ or Congress which did not maintain a balanced budget by failing to pay their bills, that's who. The President was quick to remind us last night that "the deficit was on track to top $1 trillion the year I took office". You want to blame Bush for that, you go ahead. But any spending or increased debt after you took office, Mr. President, is on your watch and is your responsibility, baby! Instead of paying off our debt AT THAT TIME, which you had the opportunity to do, the money was instead spent elsewhere on an unprecedented spending binge, a massive health care bill that most Americans never asked for and a ‘stimulus’ bill that backfired miserably producing further unemployment instead of jobs.

Two and a half years later you are just NOW realizing that if we stay on the current path, our growing debt could cost us jobs and do serious damage to the economy?? You used the future tense here, Mr. President, as though serious damage to the economy has not yet occurred. How can the most powerful person in the world be so out of touch in regard to the state of the Union. I am afraid for the futures of my children as well as yours.

As the country goes down the tubes financially, know that Mr. Obama wants a government that lives within its means, but right now there are far more important things to pay for – things like new roads and bridges; weather satellites and food inspection; services to veterans and medical research. Vitally important things like that. As the President said: "Understand – raising the debt ceiling does not allow Congress to spend more money." Yet every time they raise it, THEY SPEND MORE MONEY!

The President is asking you all to make your voice heard regarding a balanced approach to reducing the deficit by letting your Member of Congress know. Have you no shame, Mr. President? Now you want the American people to bail you out of your spending addiction. Yes, make phone calls, but let those calls echo the statement of John Boehner who also spoke last night:

The solution to this crisis is not complicated: if you’re spending more money than you’re taking in, you need to spend less of it.

Simple stuff, that Economics 101. Contact your member of Congress and ask them:"If the debt ceiling is raised, do you promise to spend less?"

Obama was quite accurate when he said: History is scattered with the stories of those who held fast to rigid ideologies and refused to listen to those who disagreed. Yea, like in 2009 when by a 227-196 vote, the House affirmed Democrats' plans to move health care legislation under rules that block Republicans in the Senate from being able to slow — or even stop — it from proceeding. If you're gonna preach it, then live it!

So what have the Republicans done? Boehner summed it up this way: And over the last six months, we’ve done our best to convince the president to partner with us to do something dramatic to change the fiscal trajectory of our country. . .something that will boost confidence in our economy, renew a measure of faith in our government, and help small businesses get back on track.

Spending what remains of our life savings, 401k's and our children's future will not accomplish this, Mr. President. Your tax increases are destroying jobs. Simply put, the jobs and savings of too many Americans are at stake. STOP THE SPENDING and save a country!

Obama inauguration tunnel of doom with speeding motorcade!

A demonstration of how President Obama treated his voters even at the very beginning of his reign:

Obama inauguration 2009 3rd Street Tunnel in Washington DC purple ticket line as motorcade speeds through a crowd of people. Very dangerous. We waited in line for 5 hours to find out the gate was closed, perhaps long before we made it out of the tunnel. Thousands of purple ticket holders and line cutters disenfranchised. We didn't get in to the purple section or see the inauguration. We were very disappointed. Did I mention that there was no security or event personnel down in the tunnel?

Dick Armey takes sharp aim at Government spending!

Dick Armey is interviewed on CNBC where he totally nails the debt debate:

"I laugh at the liberals, they crack me up. These people are really funny. They got two kinds of spending in Washington: programs that are too big to cut and too little to cut. You can't find a left-winger in Washington (that will cut anything)".

Dick is great here as well as painfully honest. Remember, this is CNBC! He also goes on to say that tax code punishes the most productive Americans (not necessarily the richest) and is a proponent of the flat tax.

Sen. Marco Rubio on "Face the Nation": It's the debt, stupid!!

Concerning the debt limit debate, Rubio says: "The real problem here is not the debt limit, it's the debt.....and it's not just me saying this, it's the rating houses saying it"!

Senator Rubio refers to the following article S& P report which vindicates "House “Cut, Cap, and Balance” plan as mentioned at the Washington Examiner on 7/16/2011:

Standard & Poor’s issued a dire warning this week stating a 50 percent likelihood that the nation’s gold-plated Triple-A credit rating will be downgraded in the next 90 days. Not because of any failure to increase the debt ceiling, but because it appears there will be no longer-term plan that substantially reduces the deficit.  Source: http://washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/op-eds/2011/07/sp-report-vindicates-house-cut-cap-and-balance-plan#ixzz1SOKqxJUv

President Obama, are you listening to the fiscally responsible people in the room?

Tax Hikes Now for Promises to Cut Spending Later?

On Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace, Rep. Jim Jordan said the following:

"The spending cuts are in the out-years. The tax increases are going to come soon. This is the old cliché, this is Lucy and Charlie Brown and the football. And the American people say, 'We're not falling for that game anymore. We're not going to let you promise spending cuts later to raise taxes now.' If these tax things are so bad that Chris [Van Hollen] talks about, well the Democrats just controlled all of government eight months ago. Why in the world didn't they get rid of them?"

Senator Lee Explains why Social Security checks WILL go out After Aug 2!.

Senator Mike Lee explains that the U.S. government (the one financed by you) has enough revenue to pay social security recipients whether or not an agreement on the debt ceiling is made regardless of the recent scare tactics of President Obama.

Regarding the plan now presented by the republican leadership: "It's not just the best plan, it's the only plan....most notably a balanced budget amendment to the constitution, which by the way, Americans overwhelmingly support."

President Obama still has yet to offer any details of his plan. Remember this the next time you cast a vote for LEADERSHIP come the 2012 elections!

Limbaugh: Barack Obama Has Destroyed the Economy in Two-and-a-Half Years!

Rush on his July 14th, 2010 show:

But the real news in the labor report the published today -- we predicted this last week -- is last week's claims number was revised upward by 9,000. Last week on this very day the reported number for jobless claims was 418,000. We said, "But that number doesn't really mean anything because it's going to be revised upwards. They all are." Well, today it was to 427,000, so they actually missed on the low side by 9,000 last week. It makes a four-week moving average of 423,800 jobless claims. The economy has not turned any corners. There is no recovery. It's Obama's economy, and Obama needs the Republicans to save him from himself. Obama needs the Republicans to get reelected. Obama needs the Republicans to cave.

They have no specifics. They have no budget. Nor does Obama, other than this monstrosity from last February with a $3.7 trillion budget that not even one Democrat voted for. Other than that, they don't have one -- on purpose -- so that the only numbers out there are Republican numbers that they can demagogue. That's the strategy. So if Senate Democrats don't have to project spending and revenues -- if they can just choose not to in violation of the law -- then why should I have to pay quarterly taxes?


It's 806 days, ladies and gentlemen, since Senate Democrats -- and they run the place -- have passed a budget. There are 365 days in a year. So it's well over two years since the Democrats, who run the place, have passed a budget. The law requires them to pass a budget every year. Eight hundred six days and counting -- and this, by the way, is the strategy. There's no question. They devised two years ago a strategy: We're not gonna present a budget: We're not gonna tie ourselves down. This was part of the 2010 reelection strategy: Do put a budget out there because we don't want voters to have any specifics about what we intend.
 

Well said, Rush.

John Boehner holds America's future in his hands!

Americans need to pray that he holds fast to his commitment to NOT be a party to the DEMOCRAT's appeal to RAISE the debt ceiling by August 2nd! Have any well reasoned, thoughtful Americans asked why the democratically controlled government swept into office with the Obama administration in 2008 is just now "pretending" to get serious about our debt......but continues to incur more? Here's a solution to debt most Americans learned in grade school that works every time it's tried: CUT SPENDING!


You need to read Rush Limbaugh's salient comments made during his July 11, 2011 radio show:

When you boil it all down, it's the point: big cutting. It will occur automatically. The debt automatically gets serviced, unless Obama doesn't want it to, and then the rest of the government gets cut accordingly. If we don't do anything, that's what would happen.

This is supposed to be about cutting spending to stay under the ceiling. As Republicans and conservatives if you show up to a raise the debt ceiling meeting, you're lost. You have already lost if you show up to a raise the debt ceiling meeting. We're showing up at a meeting where the debt ceiling is about to be exceeded. We're talking about seeing to it that that doesn't happen. We are talking, or should be, about cutting spending to stay under the ceiling. That's what voters in 2010 voted, am I right?


Obama will save a few jobs now in favor of saving the future of America over the next few years....or less!

It may surprise you to learn that in August 2009, on a visit to Elkhart, Indiana to tout his stimulus plan, Obama sat down for an interview with NBC’s Chuck Todd and said the following:

“First of all, he’s right. Normally, you don’t raise taxes in a recession, which is why we haven’t and why we’ve instead cut taxes. So I guess what I’d say to Scott is – his economics are right. You don’t raise taxes in a recession. We haven’t raised taxes in a recession.”

Yet listen to the great deceiver just a few days ago:

Democrat Senator says boycott Georgia!

Vincent D. Fort was first elected to the Georgia State Senate from the 39th District in 1996. He represents part of Fulton County. He demagogues the recent immigration reform and ridiculously compares Georgia to South African Apartheid. The Democrats seem to care more about their pet social projects than jobs, economic recovery, or following the law. YouTuber secularstupidest

Unemployment Hits 9.2%; Obama Blames… Everyone Else!

H/T breitbart.tv:
Greece, natural disasters, high gas prices, state budget cuts, Wall Street and uncertainty about the debt ceiling were all cited by the president as reasons for the horrible employment situation. He then called for increased "investments".

FLASHBACK:
Use of a teleprompter when coupled with the human factor can bring forth unexpected, enjoyable results for the viewer. The next few minutes features President Obama experiencing an unfair share of difficulties with his grumpy, uncooperative teleprompter. He is followed by a few surprises from several other familiar media figures!
