The obscured cost of failed immigration policy.

This is what is really going on behind the scenes with the Obama no policy immigration policy. Leave them here, release them from jail and wait and watch what happens.

Illegals released by feds committed 19 murders, 142 sex crimes

The Obama administration declined to try to deport more than 36,000 illegal immigrants that were arrested on other charges between 2008 and 2011, including some who went on to commit 19 murders, 3 attempted murders and 142 sex crimes, the House Judiciary Committee said Tuesday.

All told, the administration was alerted to nearly 160,000 immigrants — most of them here legally — who were arrested during the three-year period. They went on to be charged in nearly 60,000 more crimes, according to the committee and the Congressional Research Service, which issued a report on the matter.

The findings stem from the Obama administration’s Secure Communities program, which was designed to identify immigrants who run afoul of the law and who the administration decides it wants to deport.

While hundreds of thousands have been sent back home under the program, 159,286 were not put in deportation proceedings during the period under review, CRS said.

About three quarters of those weren’t eligible for deportation because they were legal immigrants and their criminal records didn’t rise to the level of deportation, though nearly a quarter could have been deported, CRS said.

Those who could have been deported but were released later went on to commit the 19 murders, 3 attempted murders and 142 sex crimes, the Judiciary Committee said.

First there weren't going to be enough security guards to provide security for all of the anticipated crowds at the Olympics, so the British military was pressed into service to fill in the gaps.

Now that there are empty seats glaring back at the international cameras, once again the British military is pressed into service to fill in the gaps. Maybe someone should have told them not to wear their uniforms. Just  saying....

Ticket touts disgrace: Row upon row of empty seats... as tickets sent to foreign VIPs go on the black market

• Large areas of empty seats seen in stadia for the second day running
• London 2012 chairman Lord Coe reveals students and teachers are also being called in at the last minute
• Every tout arrested had tickets sent to foreign VIPS

Prized Olympic tickets entrusted to foreign delegations are being openly sold by touts on the streets of Britain, it emerged last night.
They are cashing in on the huge demand for seats by selling tickets sent overseas by Games organisers.
The revelation came as a row raged over embarrassing scenes of banks of empty seating at many Games venues – including last night’s swimming finals.

Plenty of room: The scene at the Aquatics Centre in the Olympic Park on Saturday, on the first day of swimming events

Lots of empty rows at the Aquatics Centre in Stratford yesterday, even as Rebecca Adlington swam in her 400m freestyle heat and final

Earls Court in west London was virtually empty yesterday for Great Britain's volleyball match yesterday

Last night Scotland Yard said every illegal seller arrested so far had held tickets despatched overseas to national committees and official re-sellers.
One of the touts held is from Germany, another from Slovakia.
The discovery raises further questions about the way in which precious tickets are allocated by the International Olympic Committee.
And it will fuel anger among millions of British sport fans who have been left watching events on TV because they failed to get a seat in last year’s ballot.

Last night, as an official probe was launched into the scandal:

• Shadow Olympics minister Tessa Jowell said those not using their seats should be stripped of them.
• Olympics boss Lord Coe claimed venues were ‘stuffed to the gunwales’ and dismissed pictures of the seats as ‘holiday snaps’.
• Organisers insisted the empty seats were not allocated to sponsors, claiming they were unused by athletes, officials and the media.
• Troops, students and teachers are being drafted in to sit in the empty seats to prevent a repeat of the embarrassing scenes.

Clinton to deliver convention speech and endorsement for Obama

Bill Clinton is set to play a central part in the Democratic convention, aides said, and will formally place President Obama’s name into nomination by delivering a prime-time speech designed to present a forceful economic argument for why Mr. Obama deserves to win a second term.

A one-stop destination for the latest political news — from The Times and other top sources. Plus opinion, polls, campaign data and video.

The prominent role of Mr. Clinton, which is scheduled to be announced on Monday, signals an effort by the Obama campaign to pull out all the stops to rally Democrats when they gather for their party’s national convention in Charlotte, N.C. An even more important audience will be the voters across the country who will see the address carried by television networks.

The Supreme court may be preparing to take away and void the Second Amendment

 

This is a bothersome development, not the least of reasons being where the conversation is originating. Antoine Scalia, one of the two traditionally most conservative justices is laying the ground work for dismantling the second amendment .  We have already lost Roberts to leftist ideologies, if Scalia folds then the nation and our future is completely lost in my opinion. There will be no survival of America as we know it. This nation will spiral into either civil war or dictatorship and it will happen quickly.

Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia said Sunday the Second Amendment leaves open the possibility of gun-control legislation.
Scalia, one of the high court’s most conservative justices, said on “Fox News Sunday” that the majority opinion in the landmark 2008 case of District of Columbia v. Heller stated the extent of gun ownership “will have to be decided in future cases.”
“We’ll see,” he said.
Scalia made the comments following the July 20 massacre at a movie theater in Aurora, Colo., which has brought the gun-control issue back into the national debate.

Another example of let them eat cake.

The problem of the left and their meme hustling media, is that they have never fully grasped the concept of  hypocrisy. They are more than willing to point fingers at others, but they seem to have conveniences of memory when the telescope of scrutiny is turned in their direction or the spotlight is placed on their favored ones.

What's good for the goose? Is well good for the gander as they say. So if you are going to hammer one and attempt to draw parallels and comparison of capricious spending and waste, then of course you must reciprocate when the obvious becomes rue about those that you support. right? Well not exactly.

Remember when winning was enough?

 Remember when winning was enough? I do. I remember the 1964 Olympics. I remember when it was about the 'thrill of victory and the agony of defeat.'  I also remember the black power raised fist Olympics of 1968 when suddenly the games were being transformed into some statement about civil rights and black power in America. I remember the Israeli massacre Olympics of 1972. I remember the doping scandals with the Soviets and eastern block countries during the 1976 Olympics and the US boycott of the 1980 games.

1984 through 2000 seemed to give a rest to all the politics, but that all has been replaced with commercialism and the "me" generation of American athletes and other who are only there to get their endorsements and contracts.

The Olympic games has morphed into the same commercialized political games of so many other things in our life in my opinion and I am tired of it. This will be one of y least watch games as my interest level has been damaged by the antics and goings on outside the fields of competition.

 Ryan Lochte was barred from wearing his red, white and blue grill on the medal stand

You, Mary Pealor and 2 others read this

American swimmer Ryan Lochte wanted to wear a custom-made red, white and blue grill on the podium after winning the 400 IM -- presumably to honor the ancient Olympians who also used to ice out with teeth jewelry. His plan hit a snag when a humorless IOC official informed him that wearing the grill would result in a failure to receive the most precious bling of all.

[ Photos: Ryan Lochte's Grill of Victory ]

Wayne Drehs of ESPN tweeted that Lochte said "he tried to wear his grill on the podium only to have an Olympics official tell him if he did so he wouldn't get his gold."
They were going to hold back Lochte's medal because of a grill? Even for the IOC, that's egregious. We wouldn't want anyone to have any fun after winning a gold medal at an Olympics, would we? Athletes like Ryan Lochte are what make the Olympics into the worldwide spectacle it is. If Lochte wants to dress up like the queen to accept the medal, let him. Some nameless official shouldn't stand in his way.

Celebrating the Olympics.

Celebrate the Olympics? I think not. Starting with the opening ceremonies that had less than little to do with athletic competition and everything to do with leftist socialism agendas.   The Olympics has become just another stage for the presentation and staging of socio-political left world angst.

I am sorry, but I cannot accept what is being done. Once again the IOC issed the opportunity to put something to rest.

 In the worst decision of the Opening Ceremony, the International Olympic Committee allowed one moment of silence to be held - just not the one that it should have permitted for the past 40 years.

After saying there would be no moment of silence to honor the 11 Israeli athletes and coaches who were killed at the 1972 Munich Olympics, the IOC permitted a video tribute to the 52 people who were killed in the suicide bombings in the London transit system the day after the city won the Games in 2005.

That was kind, and fitting, but it only served to highlight the extraordinarily bad judgment the IOC has shown in the matter of the Israelis, who were killed simply because they were Olympians living in the Olympic village. As has been the case for 40 years, the IOC recently refused repeated requests from world leaders and families to honor the Israelis, including President Obama, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and leaders of Canada, Australia, Israel and Germany, among

Run! Hide! Fight! Survivie an Active Shooter.

In case you don't know what to do when a lunatic approaches   Here is a video produced by the Department of Homeland Security with some tips.

Run! Hide! Fight!

Nothing in the video about returning fire.  Nothing in the video about being armed and preparing yourself to not become a victim.

Not unlike what has happened in the aftermath of Columbine and a dozen other tragedies, the government's best advice always seems to be to run or cower and only as a last resort, to fight for your life.

In my opinion, fighting should always be the first option. If more people were armed and if more people took direct action, this lunacy would stop. These cowards only want to kill others, they don't want to die themselves.

As for me, I won't be running or hiding.

Politics and Morals revolve around a chicken sandwich

 
Suddenly egalitarian politics and the morals of leftist anti Christian rhetoric revolves around boycotting Chick fil a and the stated opposition of the company president to homosexual marriage. As usual, the realities of the conversation were immediately altered by the left to reflect alleged hate. This perception was purposely created and represented by homosexual activists who are opposed to the stated and known truth of the bible.

Mr. Cathy simply stated and later reaffirmed that he supports the biblical determinations of marriage. As such, he and his company are being targeted with a purposeful campaign of hate by homosexuals and the left. Those who's only interest is to attempt to attack and demonize Christian values that conflict with the promulgation of homosexual deviancy.

This is a battle they will not win. Too many people, particularly in the south, refuse to adhere to the secular humanist belief system of egalitarian socialism and anti Christian hate. Therefore, if anything, Christians will close ranks just as the homosexuals have and Christians will protect their faith and their affiliations with companies that reflect their Christian values.

If homosexuals feel threatened or dislike the business practices of Chick fil a, they are more than welcome to take their business elsewhere, as I and millions of others are welcome to withdraw our patronage from companies who support homosexual ideologies that we find reprehensible.

It's called America. Freedom, free enterprise, the right to conduct business based upon your morals and beliefs and not those of others who you may find abhorrent. As for me? I will be having a Chick fil a and waffle fries once again today. I support good food and Christian values.

Chick-fil-A sandwiches become a political symbol

All of a sudden, biting into a fried chicken sandwich has become a political statement.
Chick-fil-A, the fast-food chain known for putting faith ahead of profits by closing on Sundays, is standing firm in its opposition to gay marriage after touching off a furor earlier this month.
Gay rights groups have called for a boycott, the Jim Henson Co. pulled its Muppet toys from kids' meals, and politicians in Boston and Chicago told the chain it is not welcome there.
Across the Bible Belt, where most of the 1,600 restaurants are situated, Christian conservatives have thrown their support behind the Atlanta-based company, promising to buy chicken sandwiches and waffle fries next week on "Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day."
The latest skirmish in the nation's culture wars began when Chick-fil-A president Dan Cathy told the Baptist Press that the company was "guilty as charged" for backing "the biblical definition of a family." In a later radio interview, he ratcheted up the rhetoric: "I think we are inviting God's judgment on our nation when we shake our fist at him and say, `We know better than you as to what constitutes a marriage.'"
That fired up gay rights advocates, including a group that waged a campaign against the company in recent years by publicizing $3 million in contributions that the Cathy family foundation has made to conservative organizations such as the Family Research Council.
"This solidifies Chick-fil-A as being closely aligned with some of the most vicious anti-gay voices in the country," said Carlos Maza of Equality Matters.

The continued demonization of Chick Fil A

 What is being left out of these reports and demonizations of Chick fila and its CEO is the nuance that the anti gay (anti homosexual) agenda that Mr. Cathy is esposuing? Is nothing more than a belief and adherence to basic Christian values that have een common knowledge and accepted religious practice for two thousand years.

I wonder, will Mr. Emanuel and others go after Muslim owned businesses with the same angst and hatred?

Chicago Mayor goes after Chick-fil-A for  anti-gay views

The anti-gay views openly espoused by the president of a fast food chain specializing in chicken sandwiches have run afoul of Mayor Rahm Emanuel and a local alderman, who are determined to block Chick-fil-A from expanding in Chicago.

“Chick-fil-A’s values are not Chicago values. They’re not respectful of our residents, our neighbors and our family members. And if you’re gonna be part of the Chicago community, you should reflect Chicago values,” Emanuel said Wednesday.

“What the CEO has said as it relates to gay marriage and gay couples is not what I believe, but more importantly, it’s not what the people of Chicago believe. We just passed legislation as it relates to civil union and my goal and my hope … is that we now move on recognizing gay marriage. I do not believe that the CEO’s comments … reflects who we are as a city.”

Ald. Joe Moreno (1st) is using the same argument to block Chick-fil-A from opening its first free-standing restaurant in Chicago’s Logan Square neighborhood.

Chick-fil-A already has one Chicago store — at 30 E. Chicago near Loyola University’s downtown campus.

“Same sex marriage, same-sex couples — that’s the civil rights fight of our time. To have those discriminatory policies from the top down is just not something that we’re open to. …We want responsible businesses,” Moreno said.

There are heroes and there are cowards.

I am sorry, but this bastard is a coward. Four men (MEN) died protecting their girlfriends from this lunatic in Aurora, while this COWARD abandoned his girlfriend and children and ran! Ran like the yellow dog that he is. Then later at the hospital where she is being treated for shrapnel wounds, he has the brass to propose. Worse than that, she accepts.

The Notebook Never Delivered

The plot to kill never revealed. Amazing how this could have happened.

Our Heroes Are Many

There were three heroes who died in Aurora Colorado last week. Can you name any of them? These heroes died shielding their girlfriends from a mad man in that darkened theater. Over the past eleven years, thousands of our heroes have died in Iraq and Afghanistan, shielding us from other mad men. Can you name any of them? Have you attended any of their services or memorials? Have you been close enough to their families at grave side to feel their pain?


For the record, those heroes who died in Aurora Colorado last week were: Jon Blunk, Matt McQuinn and Alex Teves. They deserve to be honored and remembered too. For what they did and who they were, they were and are heroes. The lives they lived and the love they shared was demonstrated in the instant that they were called upon to make a choice to serve a greater need and a greater calling than their own lives. These are the same choices our men and women in military service make each day on our behalf. Just as these heroes in Aurora Colorado, They deserve our honor of awareness and our collective memory far more than their killers do.


The media loves covering domestic blood baths and calling for gun control on the heels of every lunatics actions, but they could care less about the sacrifices and loss of our men and women in uniform in service to this nation and serving in harms way. When will the American media call for an end to the violence and gun control in places like Afghanistan.

When will they tell the truth to the American people about the sickening and deranged teachings of fanatics who hide behind a religion, as the American media gives them an open ended pass each week to kill and murder more in the name of their god.

When will the media cease celebrating the tragedies here at home by presenting them as media circuses for weeks and years on end. You probably know the name of the James Holmes pretty well by now. The media is calling him the Joker, part of their odyssey of drama and their version of entertainment news.  It sickens me.

Compliments of an impotent and complicit media, I now know more about the life of a lunatic killer in Aurora Colorado, than I do about the current president of the United States. I know more about his college enrollment and his grades than I do those of the president of the United States. I know more about his student loans and the months that he spent planning his crimes than I do about the time the president spent at Harvard or as a US Senator. I know these things because the media decides what I should know and then provides only what they think I and millions of other Americans need to know.

Why so serious? Because I am not joking.....

Rest in peace Sally

 This is one of those gut check stories that just slips up on you. One of our pioneers is gone. Suddenly and without warning. this lady was a trail blazer, may her achievements long be remembered. Rest in Peace Sally and let it all ride now, for you have truly, finally slipped the surly bonds and touched the face of God.

Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth,

 And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;

 Sunwards I’ve climbed and joined the tumbling mirth

 Of sun-split clouds – and done a thousand things

 You have not dreamed of - wheeled and soared and swung 

 High in the sunlit silence. Hovering there,

 I’ve chased the shouting wind along and flung

 My eager craft through footless halls of air,

 Up, up the long delirious burning blue

 I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace,

 Where never lark, or even eagle, flew;

 And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod

 The high untrespassed sanctity of space,

 Put out my hand, and touched the face of god.

Three True Heroes

Three heroes who did what they could to protect their girlfriends. I would like to see the media spend some time dwelling on these young men and their sacrifice. I hope they do. I hope that this clown maniac doesn't become the entire focus of the media, along with the gun control fanatics. I hope.

Three hero guys died in Aurora taking bullets for their girlfriends

Jon Blunk and his girlfriend Jansen Young, whose life was saved when Blunk threw himself on top of her in the hail of gunfire at the Century 16 movie theater in Aurora, Colo.

Three survivors of the Colorado movie-theater massacre escaped with minor wounds, but were left with broken hearts because their heroic boyfriends died saving them.

In final acts of valor, Jon Blunk, Matt McQuinn and Alex Teves used their bodies to shield their girlfriends as accused madman James Holmes turned the Aurora cineplex into a shooting gallery.

Blunk’s girlfriend, Jansen Young; McQuinn’s girlfriend, Samantha Yowler; and Teves’ gal pal Amanda Lindgren made it out of the bloodbath — but they would have been killed had it not been for the loves of their lives.

“He’s a hero, and he’ll never be forgotten,” a tearful Jansen Young told the Daily News of Blunk. “Jon took a bullet for me.”

She was too distraught to speak more, but her mother called Blunk, 25, who had two young children from a previous relationship, “a gentleman.”

“He was loving, the kind of guy you want your daughter to be with, and ultimately, she’s alive because of this, because he protected her,” Shellie Young said.

She said Blunk, a security guard, had served in the Navy and had recently filled out papers to reenlist with a goal of becoming a Navy SEAL. “To her, he was a hero anyway because he wanted to serve his country,” she said of her daughter, who was left with shrapnel wounds to her side. “He said that all the time: ‘I was born to serve my country.’”

Jansen Young, 21, said Blunk took her to see Friday’s midnight premiere of “The Dark Knight Rises” to celebrate her graduation from veterinarian school. As the black-clad killer burst into the theater and unleashed tear gas and a torrent of indiscriminate gunfire, Blunk selflessly protected his girlfriend.

He pushed Jansen on the ground and under her seat, then threw his body on top of her, the mother said. “He was 6-feet-2, in incredible shape, which is why he was able to push her down under the seats of the theater,” the mother said. “He pushed her down on the floor and laid down on top of her and he died there.”

Alex Teves pushed his girlfriend, Amanda Lindgren, to the floor to shield her when bullets began flying in the movie theater and was struck himself.

SSDD, More calls for gun control

As expected, the wailing of  the banshees crying out for gun control came crashing forth like an anticipated tidal wave in the aftermath of the Colorado shootings. Will there be a similar call for the banning of capricious media violence? Don't look for it. Hollywood's pandering to the obscene and the tragic are what are the motivators behind such tragedies. Combined with the fact that our society has abandoned every level of common decency and respect for human life and replaced it with debauchery and the desire to defame and debase all moral values that have existed for generations.

Yes, there is truth to the leftist adage that this is the price we must now pay to live in a free society. As long as we allow dehumanizing secularism to govern our society and assert that deviancy is to be relished and decency is to be abhorred, these massacres of innocent people will continue.

I will not waste my time attempting to counter the idiocy of leftist knee jerks and their never ending mantra of gun control. Those who buy into such leftist propaganda are already a lost cause. The bottom line, had there of been armed citizens in that theater the other night. Capable of responding to the threats of this maniac, as opposed of cowering and waiting for the government to come do something, many of these victims would be alive today. Many more would not have been wounded.

The call for federal lawmakers to tighten gun laws has intensified following the mass shooting  in Colorado, with New Jersey Democratic Sen. Frank R. Lautenberg urging Congress on Saturday to swiftly address a ban on certain weapons.
“Let's stop wasting time and start saving lives,” Lautenberg, D-N.J. said on his Twitter account. “Congress must prioritize a ban on high-capacity gun magazines.”
At least one other lawmaker has already called on President Obama and GOP challenger Mitt Romney to address the issue.
"Soothing words are nice," New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg said in a radio interview, "but maybe it's time that the two people who want to be president of the United States stand up and tell us what they are going to do about it, because this is obviously a problem across the country."

The Btter End of an Era (UPDATE)

For the victims of the monster Sandusky, their story and their nightmare never ends, but for the fans and others associated with Penn State football, it is time to retire the image that has come to be known as the protector of the monster.

No other individual better symbolizes the utter failure of those responsible for what was allowed to continue for over ten years. I can imagine that even for the most die hard Joe Pa supporters, seeing that statues is an open and raw source of embarrassment to say the least.

They can put it in storage where it will remain. I seriously doubt that it will ever see the light of day ever again. The visage of their icon is forevermore tainted with the reality that he allowed children to be violated and victimized, for no other reason than to supposedly shield the university from bad publicity. Now look at the publicity.

The echo of "say it ain't so Joe" will echo through the halls of Penn State for a generation and when it finally subsides with the death of the last of those who remember, no one will care to resurrect the visage of glory tainted and a university shamed.

 

Paterno statue to be removed

The statue of the late Penn State football coach Joe Paterno outside the campus' football stadium will be removed, the university's president said Sunday.

The tribute to Paterno had become an object of contention after the child rape scandal involving former assistant coach Jerry Sandusky.

Paterno's statue and legacy came under fire after the release of the Freeh Report, the scathing investigation led by former FBI Director Louis Freeh.

UPDATE

Unprecedented Penalties in the offing

It looks like the troubles are just beginning for Penn State, shich may have been their reasoning for taking down the statue today. The NCAA 'other shoe' is supposed to drop tomorrow.

 CBS News has learned that the NCAA will announce what a high-ranking association source called "unprecedented" penalties against both the Penn State University football team and the school.
"I've never seen anything like it," the source told correspondent Armen Keteyian.
NCAA President Mark Emmert will make the announcement Monday morning at 9 a.m. at the organization's headquarters in Indianapolis.
The penalties come in the wake of the independent report by former FBI Director Louis Freeh that chronicled repeated efforts by four top Penn State officials, including former football coach Joe Paterno, to conceal allegations of serial child sex abuse by Jerry Sandusky over a 14-year period.
The NCAA had been awaiting the school's response to four key questions pertaining to the sex abuse scandal, including issues involving institutional control and ethics.

US Military completely caves to homosexual agenda

For those who have seen the coverage of "Gay rights" parades adn the signage including "We're Queer! And We're Here!" Perhaps now they will understand the full force and effect of Obama's eliminating the don't ask don't tell policy.

Once again, the issue is not about homosexual rights, the issue is about in your face rub America's nose in it. Homosexuals aren't just interested in obtaining rights, they are after pursuing all vestiges of heterosexuality until those who are not homosexuals are the ones looked at as deviant.

one hundred years of military code and conduct be damned! If  homosexuals want to march in their US military uniforms? Then forget about the standard that use to apply.

New in 'gay' parade: U.S. troops in uniform

In what appears to be an extraordinary reversal of military policy, members of the U.S. armed forces say they have been given permission by their commanding officers to march in a “gay pride” parade Saturday – while wearing their service-issued uniforms.
Meanwhile, WND has learned, one of the top officers who approved the decision has since entered retirement.

The top echelons of the U.S. Air Force approved a request by a senior recruiter based in Arizona to join “a uniformed, active-duty military contingent” in a San Diego homosexual pride event, the San Diego Union Tribune reported.
The decision breaks down generations of tight limits on when and where a service member is allowed to appear in uniform, and appears to stray from the Department of Defense regulations on the use of uniforms, dated 2005 and signed by Defense Undersecretary David S.C. Chu, which says using the U.S. military uniform is prohibited in a number of scenarios.
Those include “in connection with furthering political activities, private employment or commercial interests, when an inference of official sponsorship of the activity or interest may be drawn.”
Using the uniform also is banned “When wearing the uniform may tend to bring discredit upon the armed forces,” and while former members are allowed to wear them for funerals, memorial services, weddings, and “other parades … in which any active or reserve United States military unit is taking part,” the regulations state, “wearing of the uniform or any part thereof at any other time or for any other purpose is prohibited.”
Current Air Force rules say members may appear in uniform “at local community-wide civic-sponsored events only when the approving commander believes participating is appropriate and in good taste; the individuals volunteer for the assignment; there is no interference with military duties or operations; participation involves no additional cost to the government; and the event meets the basic participation criteria below.”

Obama's idea of hope and change realized

This revelation should speak volumes to the reality of what this an has wrought with his presidency. So heaven forbid, if he is re-elected, who is he going to blame for the last four years? I say he isn't concerned about that. All he wants to do is get past the point where the voters have no more say so and then he will reveal his true nature in a second term.

It is critical America, this man must not be allowed a second term in office. Americans had better report to the polls and send him packing or the damage he will do in another four years will be irreconcilable. 

More Americans went on disability than found jobs in last 3 months

More Americans went on disability than found jobs over the last three months, according to fresh figures crunched by the Senate Budget Committee.
Underscoring the extent of the recent slowdown in the economy, the startling numbers show that between April and June, a total of 246,000 people enrolled in the Social Security Disability Insurance program. In the same period, just 225,000 found jobs.
Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., ranking Republican on the budget panel, said the figures raise concern about the health of the economy as well as the disability insurance program itself. He said that since 2008, a total of 3.6 million Americans have gone on disability -- while 1.3 million lost jobs.
"The growing number of people on disability and other federal benefits, combined with weak economic growth, raises serious concerns about the sustainability of the American economy," he said in a statement.
The stat speaks more to the weakening economy -- a reality Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke confirmed in testimony to Congress Tuesday -- than any sudden growth in disability enrollment, which has remained fairly steady.
A total of 247,000 people went on disability in the first three months of President Obama's term -- at a time when millions were losing jobs at the height of the recession. Fast forward to the first three months of 2012, and 249,000 people went on disability.
While that number was roughly the same in the second quarter, the number of new jobs plummeted -- from nearly 680,000 in the first quarter to 225,000 in the second quarter.
Still, the disability rolls have continued to swell and threaten the program's fiscal future.
A new Congressional Budget Office underscored the troubled finances of the growing Social Security Disability Insurance program. The report showed $119 billion in benefits were paid last year to 8.3 million disabled workers. That represents almost 18 percent of all Social Security spending.

The entire presidency is a fraud

 It looks like the sheriff's investigators found what has been hiding in plain sight all along. The evidence that the media has ignored for over four years and will continue to ignore regardless of what evidence is brought forth to demonstrate the truth and their own complicit denials of the truth . 

In the media's modern day Matrix?
Obama is the one. Obama is the one to lead us and save us from the capitalist machines and our dreary existence of feeding our life blood into the system.

Picture The white house and Obama looking into the eyes of the majority of evil America and exclaiming: "My name is Neo!"  Get the picture?

Arpaio's Obama probe finds 'national security threat'

After determining earlier this year there is probable cause to suspect the document released by the White House as Barack Obama’s birth certificate is a forgery, Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio said today he believes his Cold Case Posse’s investigation should be advanced to the federal government, based on further information released today at a press conference under way now in Phoenix that is being live-streamed by WND.
Cold Case Posse lead investigator Mike Zullo said the new information confirms the document presented to the American public in April 2011 is undoubtedly fraudulent.

Trying to save America

an interesting perspective on budget cuts. I'll buy it, what about you. and I'll bet if we were to look closer? We could triple our savings in thirty minutes time.

America is not the greatest country anymore

Watch it.....then you decide. WARNING The language is strong. If that concerns you, don't watch it. If strong language concerns you more than losing your country, you are already a member of the walking dead in my opinion.




Now...provided you watched the entire thing and suddenly felt inspired, know this. This is the opening segment of Aaron Sorkin's new series "The Newsroom." Or maybe as it should be titled, "As the news should have been and should be from the Hollywood leftist perspective."

I have no idea what transpired in the segment after this little piece of inspirational drama by Jeff Daniels in the opening sequence, as I do not subscribe to HBO, but I do know that aside from Jeff Daniels spirited opening oratory, there has to have been further dramatic editorial follow up by Sorkin. It's what he does and as a rule, there is an egalitarian leftist morality to everything that he does.

Sorkin's last endeavor The West Wing was wildly successful with the throngs of dispossessed democrats and leftist who were widely disappointed with Bill Clinton's philandering and the fact that he didn't do a better job of dismantling America while he was president.

For those interested in following this new series, be my guest. I am sure there be other choreographed feel good moments where Jeff lectures the left once again on what they have to do to recapture America once and for all. But in the mean time I am not buying into Sorkin's vision of how the news ought to be reported. It's bad enough as it is. 

There are those who have already panned the series and said that Sorkin's view is to go back and take past events and re-portray them with a liberal view of how the media should have portrayed them and reported them. Apparently beginning with the BP Gulf oil spill and why the media didn't completely vilify BP and hound them into oblivion.

Truthfully, I am glad I don't have HBO. I have better things to do than watch the glitzy tripe and pipe dreams of the left. Which is why I watch very little mainstream media offerings period.

Is he serious?

If you ever had any doubts about where the man's head is at and how he views wealth and success, then have a read at this. 

President Obama, in a speech to supporters, suggested business owners owe their success to government investment in infrastructure and other projects -- saying “if you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that.”
Obama’s comment Friday during a campaign stop in Roanoke, Va., came just days after he urged Congress to extend tax cuts enacted during the Bush administration only to families earning less than $250,000 annually -- part of his argument that top earners have an obligation to pay more to trim the deficit.
“There are a lot of wealthy, successful Americans who agree with me because they want to give something back,” the president said. “If you’ve been successful, you didn’t get there on your own. You didn’t get there on your own. I’m always struck by people who think, well, it must be because I was just so smart. There are a lot of smart people out there.  It must be because I worked harder than everybody else. Let me tell you something -- there are a whole bunch of hardworking people out there.
“If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen,” he said. “The Internet didn’t get invented on its own. Government research created the Internet so that all the companies could make money off the Internet.”
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nevada, has pledged a vote on the Obama plan before Congress’ August recess, but whether he has the votes remains unclear. A handful of Democrats – include several facing a tough re-election bid – don’t want to vote on a proposal that would result in a tax increase for some Americans.
Senate Democrats and Republicans wrangled Wednesday over the tax cut extensions, which have emerged as a major campaign issue as GOP candidate Mitt Romney attempts to upend Obama’s re-election bid.

A bipartisan bungle for Obama

Even democrats Reid and Shumer are howling over this FUBAR.  This is something the American people have been complaining about for several years now. It is practically impossible to find anything not made in China are the primary offerings of merchandise in today's America.

And yes, this is a slap in the face and  and indication of how wrong this entire level of mediocrity has risen when it comes to corporations and other entities bowing to the dollar and abandoning American manufacturing and American workers.

Uniforms for U.S. Olympic athletes are American red, white and blue — but made in China. That has members of Congress fuming.

Republicans and Democrats railed Thursday about the U.S. Olympic Committee's decision to dress the U.S. team in Chinese manufactured berets, blazers and pants while the American textile industry struggles economically with many U.S. workers desperate for jobs.
"I am so upset. I think the Olympic committee should be ashamed of themselves. I think they should be embarrassed. I think they should take all the uniforms, put them in a big pile and burn them and start all over again," Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., told reporters at a Capitol Hill news conference on taxes.
"If they have to wear nothing but a singlet that says USA on it, painted by hand, then that's what they should wear," he said, referring to an athletic jersey.
House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi told reporters at her weekly news conference that she's proud of the nation's Olympic athletes, but "they should be wearing uniforms that are made in America."
House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said simply of the USOC, "You'd think they'd know better."
In a statement, the U.S. Olympic Committee defended the choice of designer Ralph Lauren for the clothing at the London Games, which begin later this month.
"Unlike most Olympic teams around the world, the U.S. Olympic Team is privately funded and we're grateful for the support of our sponsors," USOC spokesman Patrick Sandusky said in a statement. "We're proud of our partnership with Ralph Lauren, an iconic American company, and excited to watch America's finest athletes compete at the upcoming Games in London."
Ralph Lauren also is dressing the Olympic and Paralympic teams for the closing ceremony and providing casual clothes to be worn around the Olympic Village. Nike has made many of the competition uniforms for the U.S. and outfits for the medal stand.

 And I find it just a bit ironic that the spokesman for the US Olympic Committee is named Sandusky. 

So this is what it comes down to. Once again, egalitarian socialism and the fear of liability are the foundations for attacking this nation, it's flag and it's heroes. The time has come for those American truly concerned about these travesties, to stand up and defend this nation, it's heritage and it's flag.

If that means erecting thousands of flagpoles across America on private property, then daring these misfits and secular elitist to do something about it. Unless and until we as a people stand as the title implies "united" we will never be a prosperous nation again.

One nation, under God and under one flag. a nation that has become divisible singly because the majority refuses to stand up for what is right.

War Veterans Told To Remove U.S. Flags

Jul 13, 2012

Since 2004 the Palmer Lake VFW Post in Brooklyn Park, Minn. has flown Old Glory to show their support for American troops. The flags were posted on five area bridges. But now, the Minnesota Dept. of Transportation has ordered the veterans to remove the flags.
FOLLOW TODD ON FACEBOOK FOR MORE CULTURE WAR NEWS!! CLICK HERE!!
“This has nothing to do with the American flag,” MnDOT spokesman Kent Barnard told television station KAAL. “It has to do with any objects placed on a bridge. We have to look out for the motorists’ safety. That is our number one concern.”
The flags are attached to the bridges with brackets and transportation officials were concerned the brackets might fall and hit a motorist.
“Something somebody else puts on the bridge could conceivable break loose and fall, and injure somebody,” Barnard told the television station.
Lee Ulferts, a former commander of the VFW Post said it’s unfortunate – and suggested the American flag should have special consideration.
“This is the United States of America, and this is how we show our pride in our country, by flying our flag,” he told KAAL. “We kept that flag in a closet for way too many years, we need to see it, and we need to see it every day.”
Minnesota is not the only state to crack down on flags or roadside memorials.
In January, transportation workers in Maryland sparked controversy when they removed an American flag from a traffic circle. The flag and flag pole were torn down and thrown into the back of a dump truck.
The state highway workers said it was against the law to erect a flag on the circle.
In 2002 the California Dept. of Transportation ordered all U.S. flags removed from freeway overpasses. The decision was made after a federal judge ruled that if U.S. flags were allowed to fly, then other banners and signs must be allowed.
The case involved anti-war protesters who wanted to put up signs alongside American flags.
Caltrans spokesman Dennis Trujillo told the SFGate.com at the time that the state was disappointed.
“We thought the state statutes allowed for the flag to be displayed, but the judge has ruled otherwise.”
In New Jersey a memorial to victims and heroes of the Sept.11, 2001 terrorist attacks was removed because it violated rules governing public rights-of-way.
And in 2006 state transportation workers in Massachusetts enforced a ban on banners and flags — citing safety concerns.

Damning findings at Penn State

 

Penn State just had the door slammed on them civilly. Penn State is about to eat tens of millions if not hundreds of millions in liability settlements and jury awards over this case. I said all along, when the coaching assistant first reported his encounter and observations of Sandusky in the shower with a boy engaged in  sodomy, Why wasn't something done then. Why was this coaching assistant allowed to escape criminal responsibility for failure to take action adn report what he sat to police authorities.

Damn that he reported it Paterno and the university, that obviously wasn't good enough and he and everyone else who is aware of what happened knows it. I hope they end up paying hundreds of millions to these young men.

Report by former FBI director is Damning

Hall of Fame coach Joe Paterno and other senior Penn State officials "concealed critical facts" about Jerry Sandusky's child abuse because they were worried about bad publicity, according to an internal investigation into the scandal.
The 267-page report released Thursday is the result of an eight-month inquiry by former FBI director Louis Freeh, hired by university trustees weeks after Sandusky was arrested in November to look into what has become one of sports' biggest scandals.
The report concluded that Paterno, president Graham Spanier, athletic director Tim Curley and vice president Gary Schultz "failed to protect against a child sexual predator harming children for over a decade."
"In order to avoid the consequences of bad publicity, the most powerful leaders at the university -- Spanier, Schultz, Paterno and Curley -- repeatedly concealed critical facts relating to Sandusky's child abuse," the report said.
Sexual abuse might have been prevented if university officials had banned Sandusky from bringing children onto campus after a 1998 inquiry, the report said. Despite their knowledge of the police probe into Sandusky showering with a boy in a football locker room, Spanier, Paterno, Curley and Schultz took no action to limit his access to campus, the report said.
The May 1998 complaint by a woman whose son came home with wet hair after showering with Sandusky didn't result in charges at the time. The report says Schultz was worried the matter could be opening "Pandora's box."
Officials later did bar him from bringing children to campus.
Freeh called the officials' disregard for child victims "callous and shocking."
"Our most saddening and sobering finding is the total disregard for the safety and welfare of Sandusky's child victims by the most senior leaders at Penn State," Freeh said. "The most powerful men at Penn State failed to take any steps for 14 years to protect the children who Sandusky victimized."

They may all cease to exist.

As San Bernadino joins the ranks of other California cities that have gone bankrupt or are about to, no one is looking at the long term reality. That reality is, once these cities go under, who takes up the slack? Who provides police and fire? Certainly not the state of California. California is already bankrupt, they just refuse to admit it while they continue to cook the books to try and stay afloat.

Stay tuned. California is about to return to the days of the old west. Lawless territories patrolled by bandits and renegade Mexicans and others on the prowl for what can be pillaged.

Rising costs push California cities to fiscal brink

Throughout the state, local governments are slashing services to avoid bankruptcy. For some, it's too late.

 Facing the same financial stressors that pushed San Bernardino toward bankruptcy, cities across California are slashing day-to-day services and taking other drastic actions to skirt a similar fiscal collapse.

For some, it may not be enough.

San Bernardino on Tuesday became the third California city to seek bankruptcy protection in the last month and, while no one expects the state to be consumed by municipal insolvencies, other cities teeter on the abyss.

PHOTOS: California cities in bankruptcy

"There are likely to be more in the future, but it's hard to know, since a lot of struggling cities may manage to work things out,'' said Michael Coleman, a fiscal policy advisor for the California League of Cities. "Some cities may not go into a bankruptcy, but they may dissolve. They may cease to exist.''

Lennox Murdered: Damn the bloody Irish!

The Belfast Council finally prevailed and got their long sought and hard fought result this morning. Lennox the "looks like a pit bull" dog was destroyed. After a two year legal battle the Belfast Counsel waited out the last of the legal appeals, then did what they have wanted to do from the beginning of this odyssey of shame.

They wanted to destroy an animal because it looked like something frightening to them. It looked like the dreaded and demonized  pit bull who as a breed, has been demonized globally by ignorance and bigotry. Lennox had no voice in his fate, he had to rely on others to speak for him and speak they did, but their voices fell on deaf ears.

Lennox was seized, imprisoned, tortured and ultimately killed, not because he had done anything wrong. He had not attacked anyone or acted in any manner threatening to those he came in contact with prior to his imprisonment. No....Lennox was subjected to his last tortuous two years of life simply because he looked like something that narrow minded and bigoted people are afraid of.

No one cared to do DNA testing to disprove the allegations of his alleged breed and no one ever came forward to substantiate any act of viciousness on Lennox's part, aside from those who were in charge of his daily torture in his cell after he was incarcerated. A dog left alone in a small windowless enclosure, absent any compassion or human contact or nurturing. Treated like a beast. Is there any wonder he responded to that environment and lashed out at his tormentors? I dare say, if I were to imprison them in a similar fashion with similar treatment, they would react at least similarly and probably worse.

Most sadly to me is the fact that even when there were those who came forward and agreed to adopt Lennox, agreed to pay his expenses and have him transported to America where he could live his life absent the fear of ignorance and bigotry, the Belfast Counsel still refused to listen to any reason or any pleas of intervention. They wanted this dog dead and that is what they got this morning.

There isn't much left to be said or done about it now. Lennox is dead and that cannot be changed. What can be changed though is people's mindset toward animals and others who may be victimized by this type of narrow minded bigotry in the future.. Perhaps there are those in Ireland who's minds will be changed concerning dogs like Lennox in time, perhaps not. I tend to think that there will be little change or difference as a result of Lennox's death in Ireland.

Therefore, I must come to my own conclusions about people like these who would stand in defiance of reason and humanity, to simply make their point that they would have the final word on their own purposeful ignorance and bigotry.

I tend to think that I do not like these people (the Irish). I tend to think that they frighten me. I tend to think that they are dangerous and a threat to both animals and human beings. I tend to think that Belfast sits in the midst of some of the most entrenched hatred and bigotry on this planet. What else should be thought of those who historically kill and murder children and innocent bystanders over their bigotry and prejudice of religion.

I think these people should be feared. I think they are dangerous. Not just the ones who represent and administer terrorism and death with their IRA brethren, but the entire lot of them! The entire lot of them are murdering bastards in my opinion. Why not paint them all with the same broad brush? These are the same ones who painted their victims in that fashion. So there you have it. If these bloody bastards are entitled to their hatred and bigotry of pit bull dogs, then I feel comfortable in my feelings of bigotry and disgust toward them.

The Irish? They abandoned Britain and the rest of the world during two world wars and they have been murdering each other for a hundred years or more. I say we leave them to their misery. Part and parcel, close off all relations with an island of people that has the history of conduct that these bloody ignorant and beastly people do.

Lennox could not  speak for himself then or now, but I can speak for him. And I will speak to the barbarity of ignorance that is spawned and perpetuated by the narrow minded bigotry of a few. If this minority of hate can steer and control the opinions and actions of a nation to allow such heresy as to brand any creature a menace to society simply because of its looks, then I believe it is the least that we can do to assert the same qualities to the Irish as a nationality. They are all bad! They are all vicious! They should all be treated as such and descent people shouldn't have anything to do with them ever. Shame on you Belfast Council! Shame on you Ireland! I am disgusted to think of ever being in your presence as a group or as a nationality. "go hifreann leat!"


Lennox's last two years were spent in this windowless cell with a sawdust and filth covered. floor

Belfast dog Lennox put to sleep after 2-year fight

Read more:

A pug-nosed black Belfast dog named Lennox, who inspired a two-year legal fight and animal-rights protests on both sides of the Atlantic, was put to sleep Wednesday amid claims that city council staff had been threatened with death.
Belfast City Council confirmed the 7-year-old dog was put down after a deadline for legal appeals expired.
Dog wardens deemed the pit bull-type dog to be a public danger and seized him from his owners in April 2010. Lennox spent two years in a municipal dog pound while his owners and city authorities battled in the courts. Northern Ireland's senior appeals judges last month upheld two 2011 rulings that the dog should be put down.
His owner, Caroline Barnes, argued that Lennox was a bull dog mix, not a pit bull terrier, never attacked anyone and could be resettled outside Northern Ireland in a jurisdiction that permits ownership of pit bulls, specifically the United States.
An online "Save Lennox" petition and social media campaigns with tens of thousands of followers, many of them using the Twitter hashtag LennoxArmy, spurred protests in Belfast and New York seeking his freedom. Among its supporters was First Minister Peter Robinson, leader of Northern Ireland's regional government, who has no role in enforcing animal welfare laws.
Barnes said the council had rejected her request to be present when the dog was put to sleep and instead would send her the ashes by mail.

This is what Lennox looked like before he was seized and imprisoned for two years in a small desolate enclosure absent any human contact aside from the daily actions of his tormentors.

 

Rest in Peace Lennox

No Disinfranchisement under Holder.

 According to Eric holder, he isn't going to allow anyone to use 'pretext' to 'disinfranchise' American citizens.

That must be why he wholly supports allowing illegal Mexicans and others, not to mention the dead being able to vote for those in his party. Voter ID laws are very specifically aimed at preventing illegal voting. but Holder doesn't want that because he knows what that means. The same way four years ago when armed Black Panthers accosted voters in the north east during the general election wasn't anything for Holder and his justice department to concern themselves with.

A little quid pro quo there mr. attorney general?

America must vote the regime out in November or this nation will be destroyed.



The NAACP loves Holder

In a rousing speech at the NAACP convention in Houston, Attorney General Eric Holder on Tuesday strongly defended his efforts to block controversial voter ID laws in some states - including Texas - saying the Justice Department “will not allow political pretexts to disenfranchise American citizens of their most precious right.”
“The arc of American history has always moved toward expanding the electorate. It is what has made this nation exceptional. We will simply not allow this era to be the beginning of the reversal of that historic progress,” Holder told the assembled delegates.

Holder further suggested that the Texas voter ID laws were passed for political reasons rather than a genuine desire to prevent voting fraud.

“In our efforts to protect voting rights and to prevent voting fraud, we will be vigilant and strong. But let me be clear, let me be very, very clear: we will not allow political pretexts to disenfranchise American citizens of their most precious right,” the attorney general said to uproarious applause.
It was an appropriate venue: Monday was the first day of trial in a case that Texas has filed against the Justice Department over approval of its voter ID law, and the NAACP convention was set in Houston.
