I wrote in an earlier post that when word gets out about the amnesty program for Dreamers, all hell would break loose on the border and thousands would come across to claim amnesty as a Dreamer.
Well, here is the proof. Not my assumption….these are the head dudes that deal with this element everyday.
Seems like Hope and Change was meant for people other than American citizens. What a shame.

Kind of silly but worth the watch…wish all Obama nut huggers would watch it. A Nod to Kickin’ and Screamin’ for the clip.

What a joke. The chances of him running into someone unhappy with his policies is unacceptable.
Romney spoke at the NAACP Conference, Obama stacks a diner with friendlies……just sayin.
The three veterans were not regulars.
They just happened to be sitting in a booth at the diner when Obama popped in.
“No, they were not regulars.” The waitress who served President Obama, Mary, told me the veterans with whom the President discussed “health care” were not regulars. In fact, the Obama Campaign even had a copy of their bios on hand.
The roundtable participants bio’s were provided by the campaign…..that they conveniently had on hand….. even though he just popped in for a surprise visit and chat….with some good old boy’s ……who just happen to be supporters. I must admit, this stunt will give him some transparency points, you can see right through the fake luncheon.
The three veterans who had lunch with President Barack Obama Tuesday in outer Northeast Portland didn’t just happen to wander into the Gateway Breakfast House.
All have connections to the Obama reelection campaign and were presumably chosen for good political reasons.
After all, Obama had given a speech Monday at a convention of the Veterans of Foreign Wars in Reno, so the Portland lunch reinforced the message that president cares about vets. In addition, the local vets — Thomas Foeller of Oak Grove and Mark Peterson and Dean Dilley, both of Portland — are retired white males, a demographic the Obama campaign would certainly like to do better with.
Full Story Here and Here.
71 year old Samuel Williams did what a bunch of pussified adults could not or would not do. This happened July 13th I sure did not see it on the national news….did you?
So let’s take a look at the trancript line by line and you can decide what he meant. I will add my thoughts throughout. The video clip will be at the end.
“Look, if you’ve been successful, you didn’t get there on your own. You didn’t get there on your own.”
Really? I know may business owners who not only did it on their own, but needed government to get the hell out of the way.
“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.”
These are the comments that prelude the big “you didn’t build that” gaffe. And these are the ones that are the most offensive. He say’s he is struck by the arrogance of business men who thought that they were smarter or more hardworking than anyone else, well in most cases, they may not have been smarter but they definitely worked harder than the average 9 to 5 worker bee. His smug thumb to the nose of these business men in this comment alone is telling of what he thinks about capitalism in America. Without a doubt it shows a disdain for business and a prelude to his big government thoughts in the next paragraph.
“If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life.”
I worked for a company whose owner quit school in junior high, worked for a few years, bought a backhoe, and started his own business. He now employs over 50 people. The only thing that almost made him close his doors was the housing crisis in 2008. And guess who created that mess? It was not private business, it was government intervention forcing banks to quit redlining and give anybody a home loan. This was a directive of the Clinton administration. If that is the help he is speaking of, please don’t help anymore.
“Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive.”
Bingo! There it is. “the American system that WE have allowed”, that small two letter word “WE” is the most telling of all. In a nutshell, “we” the government “allowed” you to be successful. That’s it. That’s his thinking, “we” the government is all knowing and and can do whatever, whenever it decides, and apprently, they have decided to “allow” you to own a business.
“Somebody invested in roads and bridges.”
Your damned straight somebody invested in the roads and bridges. The American taxpayer and business around the country paid for ALL of it. What was Obama thinking? The money does not grow on the magic tree out back of the Fed. It has to come from US! How can he say this and think it would not come back to bite him in the arse. Is he really that naive? If so, that is a chilling reality that he is in charge.
“If you’ve got a business — you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen.”
Who is the somebody else? We, the American taxpayer, made that happen. With every gallon of gas that you purchase, you are “building that!” The arrogance is staggering.
“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.”
Once again, who paid the employees to do the research and come up with an early sampling of networks, that eventually became the internet? The American Taxpayer you smug son of a bitch! Government is only functioning if taxes are imposed on it’s people to pay the salaries of it’s goverment employees. Senators, Congressman, interns, staff, Mr. Obama and his DOJ, EPA, DOE, USDA, ATF, FBI, CIA, bla bla bla is all owned and paid for by Americans…..PERIOD!
Now watch the video clip and look at his actions and the way that he makes these comments. The man is out of touch with reality. And if he get’s re-elected God help us all.

…….the liar in chief said whaaaaa?
“Let’s keep taking care of our extraordinary military families. For the first time ever, we’ve made military families and veterans a top priority not just at DOD, not just at the VA, but across the government. As Richard mentioned, this has been a mission for my wife, Michelle, and Vice President Joe Biden’s wife, Dr. Jill Biden. Today, more people across America in every segment of society are Joining Forces to give our military families the respect and the support that they deserve.”
Ok. What have they done. Mooch and Ms. Biden, where? When? Opened a check book from the taxpayers wallet? They certainly did not open their own wallets.
I can’t confirm these wonderful gifts given by the first ladies. Could you guys help me. It must have come from their own generosity.
Well done. Obama can claim he meant something else, I just don’t hear it. A Nod to The Other McCain for the clip.
I can’t believe that Obama has the gall to use federal resources to attack GOP campaign donors. 
It goes beyond executive privilege. This is flat-out dirty politics and is an abuse of the office he holds. The Obama administration has turned loose his ankle biters on a Romney campaign donor businessman Frank VanderSloot. Obama’s website called out seven other donors in April with claims of less-than-reputable dealings. Which of course is bullshit and an outright lie. A Nod to Weasel Zippers for the story
This column has already told the story of Frank VanderSloot, an Idaho businessman who last year contributed to a group supporting Mitt Romney. An Obama campaign website in April sent a message to those who’d donate to the president’s opponent. It called out Mr. VanderSloot and seven other private donors by name and occupation and slurred them as having “less-than-reputable” records.
Mr. VanderSloot has since been learning what it means to be on a presidential enemies list. Just 12 days after the attack, the Idahoan found an investigator digging to unearth his divorce records. This bloodhound—a recent employee of Senate Democrats—worked for a for-hire opposition research firm.
Now Mr. VanderSloot has been targeted by the federal government. In a letter dated June 21, he was informed that his tax records had been “selected for examination” by the Internal Revenue Service. The audit also encompasses Mr. VanderSloot’s wife, and not one, but two years of past filings (2008 and 2009).
Mr. VanderSloot, who is 63 and has been working since his teens, says neither he nor his accountants recall his being subject to a federal tax audit before. He was once required to send documents on a line item inquiry into his charitable donations, which resulted in no changes to his taxes. But nothing more—that is until now, shortly after he wrote a big check to a Romney-supporting Super PAC.
Two weeks after receiving the IRS letter, Mr. VanderSloot received another—this one from the Department of Labor. He was informed it would be doing an audit of workers he employs on his Idaho-based cattle ranch under the federal visa program for temporary agriculture workers.
This reminds me of the Gibson Guitar investigation and raid. Just because they backed the GOP and their business competitor was a democratic donor, they were hounded by the DOJ for some bullshit vague law that the DOJ deemed the guitar company had violated.
It has come out that Juszkiewicz is a Republican donor, while the CEO of one of his principal competitors, C.F. Martin & Company, is a Democratic donor. Martin reportedly uses the same wood, but DOJ hasn’t raided them, leading to speculation that the Obama administration is sending a warning to Republican businessmen that they had better not oppose his re-election, lest they face criminal investigations. Normally such speculation would not be credible, but Eric Holder has politicized the Department of Justice to a point where such questions must be taken seriously. A Nod to Powerline for the archived article.
What kind of shady backroom politics is this? How can Obama think that this kind of abuse of power is not an impeachable offense? There has to be a paper trail for these decisions to attack Americans who have done nothing but….well…being Americans and donating according to their beliefs.
The information is rushing in about the man who went on the worst mass shooting in US history. The shooting was planned out and executed to perfection by the killer with the thought that the body count would be large.
One wonders what he was thinking as he planned the attack. Was he considering what the consequences of his actions would be? With the willingness to give up without a fight to police, it is noted that he was not interested in going out in a hail of gunfire. Suicide by police it seems was not an option. If he wanted to do himself in he had the time. Given the fact that he was fully body armored it seems as though he would want a showdown with police, but he waited in his parked car and surrendered without struggle.
Why? What is the ultimate goal? What would possess him to try and kill dozens?
I think the real question should be, what would have stopped him? What punishment could carry enough weight to change the man’s mind?
I suggest a death penalty that is carried out in days, not years. What civil rights does a person have when he violates the rights of others to live. He has been arrested and proven to be the shooter. I am sure he has confessed or gone silent. But without a doubt he is guilty. So why go through the process of the court system? He had rights…before the shooting.
I say he has waived those rights and has decided to be judged by the only being that can dole out true justice, and that is his maker. Let God decide what to do with him, which means put the man down immediately.
Lets look at another twisted mind. Tuscon shooter Jared Lee Loughner. Witnesses have named him as the killer and he has confessed.
Jared Loughner has not even seen his day in court yet. His lawyers are running through the various pleas and legal bullshit to keep the man alive. He killed a judge, a six-year-old girl, and four other souls, he damn near killed a congresswoman and wounded thirteen others. So how does this legal haranguing deter the next killer?
If James Holmes decides that he can have his media moment to make whatever point he was trying to make, and knows that he will live for years in jail awaiting his judgment then what could have possibly stopped him. Jared Loughner still awaits his sentencing and in the meantime taxpayers pay to feed, clothe, house, and pay for attorneys and for what? He has killed and taken others civil rights, he has none left, he gave up his rights to due process or any other legal action. So why wait?
Killers must consider the punishment if and when caught. And if the punishment is no media, no attorney, no insane plea, nothing but the punishment that fits the crime….and is swift…within two days. That will deter the next James Holmes and Jared Loughner. Put them to death within days of their attacks, without fanfare or media circus. They do not get the opportunity to have a day in court and rant about whatever injustices they believe have been inflicted on them. That would be a deterent.
Many scream for gun laws, that would be the ticket, yeah, tougher gun laws. Problem is, if someone wants to get a gun, they can get a gun, period. All the laws we have against illegal drugs does not seem to stop the….ya know…illegal drugs.
Would the potential for swift death stop the likes of these individuals? I don’t know. What I do think is that arming yourself to the teeth and shooting into a defensless position is about a cowardly as it gets, and cowards are usually afraid to die. So in my mind, yes, if they thought that they would be put to death within days of arrest they would definitely reconsider the act. Maybe enough to change their minds completely. That is all we could really ask for is it not?
