Let Them Eat Cake

While the residents of the gulf area go without jobs, clean water or any hope of an end to the continuing oil spill, Michelle Obama takes a luxurious vacation at taxpayer expense.

Even a day at the beach is done in presidential style for the First Family.

Currently enjoying a relaxing California vacation, Michelle Obama and daughter Sasha arrived at the extravagant beachside mansion of billionaire financial mogul, Howard Marks, on Wednesday afternoon…RadarOnline.com exclusively learned that mother and daughter pulled into the luxurious private estate in Malibu over looking the Pacific Ocean at 3 p.m. They were escorted by a police motorcade and spent a perfect summer day by the beach.

So far, the First Family has been experiencing the Hollywood highlife during their trip. They watched the Los Angeles Lakers blow out the Boston Celtics in Game 6 of the NBA Finals on Tuesday night. Before the game, they stopped in at the famous hot dog stand Pink’s for a ‘gourmet’ dinner.

I'll bet the people living in the Gulf would like to enjoy their beaches... And what happens when the people of Louisiana try to take matters into their own hands, because after two months the government has done nothing to stop the spill or clean up the mess? 

The coast guard stops 16 ships from going out to suck up oil to make sure there were enough life vests and fire extinguishers on board.

I. Shit. You. Not.

Bob:

Bob is appropriately angry, again:

President Hypocrisy.

That's right. Obama will speak to the Hitler of Iran, but not the head of BP.

Oh, except he reversed himself. King Obama has "summoned"  Carl-Henric Svanburg to the White House.

Didn't the left used to like to call Bush a "flip-flopper?"

Hello?

Biden Backs Israel?

Did I wake up today in an alternate reality this morning?

Despite proof that the Gaza 'aide' flotilla was little more than a flimsy cover for smuggling weapons to Jew-hating and murderous terrorists, leftists are inanely whining about those poor, poor souls on the gun boat.

Well, at least some leftists are. Amazingly, we have common sense coming from Joe Biden.

From this source:


And so I mean again, look, you can argue whether Israel should have dropped people onto that ship or not ... but the truth of the matter is, Israel has a right to know — they're at war with Hamas — has a right to know whether or not arms are being smuggled in. And up to now, Charlie, what's happened? They've said, "Here you go. You're in the Mediterranean. This ship — if you divert slightly north you can unload it and we'll get the stuff into Gaza." So what's the big deal here? What's the big deal of insisting it go straight to Gaza? Well, it's legitimate for Israel to say, "I don't know what's on that ship. These guys are dropping eight — 3,000 rockets on my people." Now, the one thing we have to do is not forget the plight of these Palestinians there, not Hamas, the — they're in bad shape. So we have put as much pressure and as much cajoling on Israel as we can to allow them to get building materials in, glass ...


I'll bet this is one of those times that Biden says something and then Obama calls him to tell him to shut the hell up. Pro-Israeli talk coming out of the White House? That's got to burn Barry's biscuits.

...And He Sucks At It

iOwnTheWorld has an excellent post regarding the hypocrisy and apathetic nature:

The Washington Times reports that since the volcanic ash prevented Obama from going to Poland for their President’s funeral  he saw an opportunity to play, yet, more golf. He still hasn’t visited the Polish Embassy in Washington, DC to sign the condolence book.

Graphic shamelessly stolen from the same source. Read the rest here. 

WHISKEY-TANGO-FOXTROT

"Whether we like it or not,"?!?

Obama is actually factually disclosing his intent to dismantle this country's military standing while insulting our allies. Israel knew better than to even bother to show up to this summit, and the President of Georgia is snubbed while Russia and her allies are catered to.

They're laughing up their sleeves in Moscow.

Bowing to China

Can't Obama just stop this? 

ObamaCare... In the Future:

I was watching some Star Trek last night and came across the Voyager episode Critical Care.

Why was I watching Voyager, you ask? Well, some Trek is better than no Trek and I do like Robert Picardo, and it's not so bad after Mulgrew looses the 'bun of steel.'

Anyhow, do take a bit and watch this episode. It'll send a chill down your spine.

I'm never ceased to be amazed by Trek's ability to predict the future.

More Insanity From Obama

The Federal government is a hot mess.

After what they've done to the banks, the auto industry and healthcare, they cannot do the one most important thing they were meant to do.

The Sinaloa Cartel is thought to have seized control of Ciudad Juarez by US intelligence, and is being used as the main artery to traffic drugs into the United States through the city of El Paso. With that comes kidnappings, murders, crime, ect.

Federal agents even refer to the cities as the "ground zero" of the ridiculously titled war on drugs.

Any peep from the Obama administration? Any pullout from the Middle East and "redeployment" to that area of the border?

Nah.

Instead, Obama is focusing on dismantling America's nuclear standing. A treaty with Russia to disarm in Prague? REALLY?!?

A 30% reduction in our nuclear arsenal and a reduction in submarines and strategic bombers coupled with the defense budget cuts Obama has already made is insanity! Do we really expect that Russia will live up to their word to disarm as well just because they say they will?

Even worse is the idea that we take the nuclear option off the table for countries that promise not to develop nukes. Sure. Does he really think that any such country wouldn't just attempt to gain nuclear capability under the radar? And what of terrorist sponsoring states? I suppose they can pack as many nail bomb vests as they wish, safe in the knowledge that we will never get to the point of exhaustion with their bullshit and just hit the button, solving the problem once and for all.

And Obama expects that Republicans will just get in line behind this? 

He's probably not far off the mark. Considering the utter spinelessness in the GOP, it wouldn't surprise me one bit.

Speaking of surprise, is anyone surprised that Netanyahu cancelled his trip to the Washington nuclear arms conference? I wouldn't attend such a farce either, were I he. Considering the treatment of Israel by the Obama administration, why come to a table and be listen to my state, the ONLY stable one in the Middle East, be berated for my nuclear weapons program while the Hitler of Iran is given a pass?

Meanwhile, Sarah Palin is calling Obama out on his idiocy. (I know, not a difficult thing.) She has astutely pointed out that no previous president has ever considered such an foolish move.

Obama childishly responded that he would not respond to Palin, saying, "Because last I checked, Sarah Palin's not much of an expert on nuclear issues."


Yeah, sure. And you are, Mr. one-half-of-a-Senate-term-before-running-for-president. Yeah, lots and lots of experience and expertise there. 


Perhaps it isn't Palin's comments that have Obama so rattled. Perhaps it is the thought of this: 

This Just In:

President Obama is to compete on Jeopardy tonight. Here is a preview:

It's About Redistribution

Funny how we're starting to hear the truth about the health care bill from the socialist left now that they've passed the thing.


First, we have Howard "Yeeeeeaaaaaaaw" Dean saying it plainly:




Next, Baucus sounds off.

From this source: 

As Democrats tout the moral underpinnings of the federal health care system overhaul -- ensuring health care coverage for nearly all Americans -- one senator appeared to go off message when he said the legislation would address the "mal-distribution of income in America."

After the Senate passed a "fix-it" bill Thursday to make changes to the new health care law, Sen. Max Baucus, D-Mont., chairman of the influential Finance Committee, said the overhaul was an "income shift" to help the poor.

"Too often, much of late, the last couple three years, the mal-distribution of income in American is gone up way too much, the wealthy are getting way, way too wealthy and the middle income class is left behind," he said. "Wages have not kept up with increased income of the highest income in America. This legislation will have the effect of addressing that mal-distribution of income in America."

How about that, comrades?

Stupid Little People

Be prepared to pick your jaw up off of the ground.

You'll be outraged but not surprised, I suspect, at the unbridled arrogance and lies of Robert Gibbs:

The shit is hitting the fan the day after Obama signed deathcare into law.

We have Al Sharp-tongue  telling the media that Obama's election was a mandate, a direct vote, for socialism. 

We have John Dingell too "tired" to censor himself and admitting on air that Obamacare will "control the people."

Hey, ladies! The administration of misogyny will be taxing your most basic needs... Go here and search tampon. You will find the FDA classifies them as a Class II medical device, and will therefore be taxed by deathcare. Nice, huh?

We are now up to twelve states who will challenge Obamacare as a blow to state's sovereignty... Which is good, considering the IRS will be enforcing the new tyranny.

And looking forward to the elections of 2012, we have Acorn not disbanding, but simply rebranding. Obama will still be able to organize those communities, dead people, football teams and pet cats to vote for his re-election.

Meanwhile, Republicans hang the Gadsen flag from the House chamber balconies.

Way to catch on, guys. I've been flying one from my flag pole for months now.

With all the above ugliness going on, we must also have a bit of beauty.

Check these out. You'll love them.

First, Nature by Numbers... And speaking of numbers, a recluse Russian has solved the Poincare Conjecture, which has been unsolved for over a century. He has even rejected the million dollar prize.

 

Next we have 185 singers across 12 countries perfoming "Lux Aurumque" as a virtual choir made up of YouTube submissions:



Ah, isn't that nice?

They Will Rue This Day

With a stroke of the pen, Obama has created another day which shall live in infamy:

Obamacare Passes.

Under the cover of darkness on a Sunday night, freedom dies to thunderous applause and by seven votes.

Comrades, we all now have government health care!




Won't it be wonderful when amnesty passes? It is coming, mark my words.

How else will the Democrats stay in office after this?

Obamaisms and Outright Lies:

Can you imagine if Pres. Bush had said something like the following? The midstream media would never stop calling him an idiot, stupid, moron, retard, ect, ect...

Pres. Obama in Ohio two days ago:

How many people are getting insurance through their jobs right now? Raise your hands. All right, well, your employer, it's estimated, would see premiums fall by as much as 3000%, which means they could give you a raise!

-President Obama in Ohio Monday afternoon.

Really? Let's just say that it costs your employer $4000 per year to insure you. A 100% decrease would see the premium at $0. So, a 3,000% decrease would mean that the insurance company would be paying the employer (if my math is correct) $116,000 to insure you.

More leftist logic?

All things considered over the last year, I believe I have found the new Democratic Party theme song:

Who's the Insulting One?

In an utterly insane assertion, Biden and Clinton have decided that Israel's decision to build housing for Israelis on Israeli soil is an insult to America.

Huh?

Each time Israel cedes land to the psuedo-stinians, they are repaid with rocket fire, homicide bombers, and other such terrorist attacks.

Can you imagine another country telling America where it may and may not build?

From this source: 

"It was insulting," Clinton told MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell in an interview airing today. "And it was insulting not just to the vice president, who certainly didn't deserve that. He was there with a very clear message of commitment to the peace process solidarity with the Israeli people. But it was an insult to the United States."

On Tuesday, Israel approved 1600 new homes in East Jerusalem, where Palestinians feels their land is being encroached on. The U.S. has urged Israel to stop expanding settlements in order to improve the climate for peace talks.

"I condemn the decision by the government of Israel to advance planning for new housing units in East Jerusalem," Biden said in a statement. "We must build an atmosphere to support negotiations, not complicate them."

In a stunning display of arrogance, Clinton proceeded to call Netanyahu to berate him.

Even more insane, frightening, and egotistical is the rumor that the Obama administration may withhold military aid from Israel in case of an Iranian attack:

DEBKAfile's military and Washington sources report: The Obama administration is considering withholding from Israel military items urgently needed in case of a flare-up of hostilities with Iran. This would further ratchet up the mounting row over Israel's decision to build another 1,600 homes in E. Jerusalem. The requests were filed by defense minister Ehud Barak as recently as Feb. 26, when he visited Washington and met defense secretary Robert Gates and secretary of state Hillary Clinton.
In an exceptionally harsh phone call to Netanyahu Friday, March, Clinton herself hinted at this possibility while administering a dressing-down on the East Jerusalem housing decision and its announcement during Vice president Joe Biden's visit.




Read the rest here. 

Will the hubris of the Obama administration embolden Iran into starting the next world war over housing for Jews?

We shall see...

A Good One:

More Insult and Injury From Obama:

Haven't we conservatives been speculating about whether Obama, having said he'd be content to be a one-term president if it meant pushing through his agenda, would try to do just that if the ship started listing?

Well, here goes... Obama has assigned a couple of his lap dogs, Chucky Schumer and Lindsey Graham-nesty to craft another amnesty bill:

Reporting from Washington - Despite steep odds, the White House has discussed prospects for reviving a major overhaul of the nation's immigration laws, a commitment that President Obama has postponed once already.

Obama took up the issue privately with his staff Monday in a bid to advance a bill through Congress before lawmakers become too distracted by approaching midterm elections.

In the session, Obama and members of his Domestic Policy Council outlined ways to resuscitate the effort in a White House meeting with two senators -- Democrat Charles E. Schumer of New York and Republican Lindsey Graham of South Carolina -- who have spent months trying to craft a bill.

According to a person familiar with the meeting, the White House may ask Schumer and Graham to at least produce a blueprint that could be turned into legislative language.

The basis of a bill would include a path toward citizenship for the 10.8 million people living in the U.S. illegally. Citizenship would not be granted lightly, the White House said. Undocumented workers would need to register, pay taxes and pay a penalty for violating the law. Failure to comply might result in deportation.


This is exactly the same bullshit that the American people RESOUNDINGLY rejected not long ago, and yet Obama, knowing that the Congress is going to flip shortly, will ram this though and sit back for a couple of years, enjoying the White House parties and press adoration.

Oh, but that's not all.

Let's see who Obama wants to appoint to the most leftist, most overturned appellate court in the country:

"Liu believes that judges have the authority to impose their views ... using clever verbal camouflage to disguise what they're doing."

Liu opponents point to a number of his writings, including a book he co-authored in 2009 called "Keeping Faith with the Constitution," in which the authors opine about their concept of judicial interpretation.

"Applications of constitutional text and principles must be open to adaptation and change ... as the conditions and norms of our society become ever more distant from those of the Founding generation." 

Great. Liu should fit in nicely in the 9th Circuit.

Buh-Bye!

WASHINGTON - New York Rep. Charles Rangel temporarily stepped aside as chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee Wednesday as he struggled with mounting ethics woes that left his political future uncertain at best.

Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out!

Sadly, though, I'll bet any of you that this former member of the "most ethical Congress in history" not only will not spend a day in prison, he won't even have charges brought against him.
