Gun Control? I Know Two Robbers That Wish There Were
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?
Obama Furiously Defending His Gaffe “You Did Not Build That”
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.

Prove It…..
…….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.
Simple And To The Point
Well done. Obama can claim he meant something else, I just don’t hear it. A Nod to The Other McCain for the clip.
Chicago Politics Implemented By The Obama Administration……Again
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.
…And The Horse You Rode In On…
How many countries have given a dime to the U.S.? They should not get anything from us. What level have we sunk to that we give VERIFIED terrorists anything? Get the hell out and let them self implode. I could give a shit less. And so should you. They get what they deserve!
The House agreed to a $650 million cut from Pakistan military aid Wednesday night as Republicans sought to tamp down demands for still deeper reductions because of conservative anger at the Islamabad government.
Rep. Ted Poe (R-Texas) first came to the floor demanding a $1.3 billion cut and initially won the endorsement of Rep. Bill Young (R-Fla.), who was managing the defense bill on the floor. But ultimately a cut of $650 million was settled upon with the intention of reducing Pakistan’s funds by half.
Rep. Norman Dicks (D-Wash.), the ranking Democrat on the House Appropriations Committee, appeared to agree to the compromise, since it was approved by a voice vote. And the end result is to conform with prior cuts agreed to this spring as part of a defense authorization bill.
Nonetheless, the fresh cut follows on Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s recent efforts to bridge the gap with Pakistan. And the combination of Poe’s inflammatory rhetoric and Young’s cheerful endorsement was not a reassuring for the Obama administration as it tries to rebuild relations.
“It is time for a new strategy with Pakistan,” said Poe, who described Pakistan as a “Benedict Arnold” nation. “More money is not going to solve the problem. … Pakistan is playing America.”
Mooch Knows What “Perks of the job” Means
Once again it’s the Chicago way. You win an office, you own the world. No wonder she is campaigning so hard. She would have to use her own money on vacations if BamBam doesn’t get re-elected.
(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates and fights government corruption, announced today that it has obtained records from the United States Air Force and the United States Secret Service detailing Michelle Obama’s February 2012 President’s Day weekend ski vacation to Aspen, Colorado, with her two daughters.
Key details, including flight records for the Secret Service detail and the names of individuals who accompanied Mrs. Obama on the vacation, were redacted from the documents with the exception of two staffers. One was Meredith Koop, her personal assistant and style advisor, the other was her scheduler Kristen Jarvis.
As reported by the Aspen Daily News on February 18, 2012:
First Lady Michelle Obama arrived in Aspen on Friday afternoon and is here with her daughters for a ski vacation. Few details about her trip were available. Sources said she is staying at the home of Jim and Paula Crown, owners of the Aspen Skiing Co. She is reportedly skiing at Buttermilk today, where the Crowns, of Chicago, own a home on the Tiehack side.
FoxNews.com noted that the trip was the 16th vacation in three years taken by the Obama family. Judicial Watch first asked for the travel documents on February 21, 2012.
“No wonder we had to file a lawsuit in federal court and wait six months to get basic information on Michelle Obama’s luxury Aspen vacation,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “The costs of the Obama family ski weekend are staggering. These high-priced luxury vacations, and the lack of transparency about
them, are beginning to seem like an abuse of office.”
Judicial Watch previously obtained documents from the United States Air Force and the United States Secret Service detailing costs associated with Michelle Obama’s controversial August 2010 vacation to Spain. According to a Judicial Watch analysis, the records indicate a total combined cost of at least $467,585.
Judicial Watch also obtained documents detailing costs a June 21-27, 2011, trip taken by Michelle Obama, her family and her staff to South Africa and Botswana. Judicial Watch received mission expense records and passenger manifests for the Africa trip that described costs of $424,142 for the flight and crew alone. Other expenses, such as off-flight food, transportation, security, etc. were not included.
Former Navy Seal Starts PAC Against Obama
OUTSTANDING ! A Nod to Drudge for the report.
“Navy SEAL’s, Special Operations Personnel and Veteran’s across America have been outraged since Barack Obama conveniently took credit for killing Osama Bin Laden for political gain,” a statement announcing the loss of SOFA said. “The active duty military has no voice as they are forbidden to publicly engage in the political campaign process and it is career suicide for senior military leaders to speak out against the President.”
Damn straight, and Obama and his hit men have no problem doling out punishments for those who go rogue against his regime.
“The President has failed and he is jeopardizing the safety of our troops, their families and our National security for political gain. Obama has exposed the identity of special operations units, leaked classified information, and limited the rules of engagement of forces on the ground,” said Mr. Zinke. “For those who have taken an oath to defend the Constitution against all enemies, both foreign and domestic, it is a call of duty to take back America from a Commander-in-Chief that is incapable of understanding the sacrifices that have been made for the values that have made America great.”
Mr. Zinke has served in the Montana State Senate since 2009. According to Afghanistan and Iraq Veterans for Congress, a political action committee dedicated to electing Republican vets, Mr. Zinke was a member of SEAL Team Six, the elite unit that killed Bin Laden, from 1990 until 1993 and from 1996 until 1999. He held several titles including Task Force Commander. In 2004, In 2004, was named “Deputy and acting Commander, Combined Joint Special Operations Task Force-Arabian Peninsula in support of Operation IRAQI FREEDOM” in that capacity he “led a force of over 3500 Special Operations personnel in Iraq in the conduct of 360 combat patrols, 48 Direct Action missions, and hundreds of sensitive operations” and “was responsible for killing or capturing 72 known enemy insurgents and terrorists.”
Obama: Successful Business Is A Product Of Government
Whaaa? This is at the base of what Obama believes.
Of course he believes this, it’s all he knows. He fashions himself as the ultimate businessman, and the product he sales is being paid for by a captive audience, the collective that is not asked to buy his product, but who is by law, forced to buy under the American tax code. It would be easier to stomach if that was all we had to pay was salaries. The problem is, he want’s us all to pay more for those who pay nothing. If he was really running a business, he would go broke. You can’t pay wages to half for working, and half for doing nothing and still keep a business going, the math just doesn’t work.
So, according to 
Obama, the American businessman has been succesful due to the influence of the federal government.
Really? I would argue it is the other way around. Successful business pays the highest amount in taxes, and half of their employees taxes as mandated by government just for the luxury of being their own boss. And they make their profits in spite of government and the intrusive policies that they impose.
What is sad is that business pays taxes to keep government running, and if Obama or anybody else in government knew how to run a business, you would think that our government would be the strongest and most fiscally responsible entity in the world. So how is it that we are 16 trillion in debt? How is it that we are imposing MORE taxes. How is it that the companies that have paid in the most, and the individuals who started them are being asked to pay more? If the Federal Government is the reason companies are successful, then government must be the best run business of all time right? Isn’t that what is being said here?
Well that is what Obama is saying, he is saying that massive government makes America a better place, and that his political acumen is smarter than say, Bill Gates.
Well I call bullshit. Obama has NO IDEA of what he is doing. He has squandered billions if not trillions on what? What product has he sold, (with our own money), has been successful? The stimulus? Cash for Clunkers? Investments in green energy? If any of these were a stand alone private sector business they would have failed, and failed dramatically. But since Obama runs his business with someone elses money, he can blame the economy or George Bush for his failures. Besides, it’s not his money he is investing, it’s not his kids welfare on the line, he is not going to lose his home if his business decisions don’t work. That is for the sheeple, the millions who pay into his business of government.
I wouldn’t let him run a lemonade stand, let alone give him the keys to White House again, which I am surprised is not in foreclosure.
The Awkward Day After A One Nighter….
