This is just amazing to me. Not surprised by how defensive the lame media CNN gals react to a view that radically departs from the insipid pap they peddle to an increasingly gullible and ignorant public all day long.

Inauguration Day 2013

Black Unemployment is Evidence of 0bama's Racism

A recent post of mine on Blogger brought on the following enlightened comment from a "progressive" 0bama worshiper:

"Oh shut the hell up, you racist idiot! You are a disrespectful disgrace to the American experiment in democracy." 

Apparently even Blacks who question 0bama's competence as president and commitment to American principles are not safe from the "racist" label.

I propose adding a couple of categories of people to the definition of "racist": (1) any president whose failed economic policies result in Black unemployment at 14% or above; also, (2) anyone who either supports or enables said president and policies.

Uh. Wait a minute. That would make Barack Hussein 0bama and his worshipers "racists," right?  That can't be.

Intel Officials "Unable" To Say Who Changed CIA Talking Points On Libya, Lawmaker Says

Former CIA Director David Petraeus stoked the controversy over the Obama administration's handling of the Libya terror attack, testifying Friday that references to "Al Qaeda involvement" were stripped from his agency's original talking points -- while other intelligence officials were unable to say who changed the memo, according to a top lawmaker who was briefed.

Ron Paul's Farewell Speech

How Much Did I Accomplish?

"I have come to one firm conviction after these many years of trying to figure out 'the plain truth of things.' The best chance for achieving peace and prosperity, for the maximum number of people world-wide, is to pursue the cause of LIBERTY."

"I have thought a lot about why those of us who believe in liberty, as a solution, have done so poorly in convincing others of its benefits.  If liberty is what we claim it is- the principle that protects all personal, social and economic decisions necessary for maximum prosperity and the best chance for peace- it should be an easy sell.  Yet, history has shown that the masses have been quite receptive to the promises of authoritarians which are rarely if ever fulfilled."

Authoritarianism vs. Liberty

"Freedom, private property, and enforceable voluntary contracts, generate wealth.  In our early history we were very much aware of this.  But in the early part of the 20^th century our politicians promoted the notion that the tax and monetary systems had to change if we were to involve ourselves in excessive domestic and military spending. That is why Congress gave us the Federal Reserve and the income tax.  The majority of Americans and many government officials agreed that sacrificing some liberty was necessary to carry out what some claimed to be “progressive” ideas. Pure democracy became acceptable."

"The wealth that we enjoyed and seemed to be endless, allowed concern for the principle of a free society to be neglected.  As long as most people believed the material abundance would last forever, worrying about protecting a competitive productive economy and individual liberty seemed unnecessary."

The Age of Redistribution

"The crisis arrived because the illusion that wealth and prosperity would last forever has ended. Since it was based on debt and a pretense that debt can be papered over by an out-of-control fiat monetary system, it was doomed to fail.  We have ended up with a system that doesn’t produce enough even to finance the debt and no fundamental understanding of why a free society is crucial to reversing these trends."

We Need an Intellectual Awakening

"If it’s not accepted that big government, fiat money, ignoring liberty, central economic planning, welfarism, and warfarism caused our crisis we can expect a continuous and dangerous march toward corporatism and even fascism with even more loss of our liberties.  Prosperity for a large middle class though will become an abstract dream."

"Everyone claims support for freedom.  But too often it’s for one’s own freedom and not for others.  Too many believe that there must be limits on freedom. They argue that freedom must be directed and managed to achieve fairness and equality thus making it acceptable to curtail, through force, certain liberties."

Titillation vs. Justice

0bama: Coward and Liar (Not Necessarily in That Order)

Obama: Attacks on Susan Rice "outrageous"

"Let me say specifically about Susan Rice: She has done exemplary work. She has represented the U.S. and our interests in the U.N. with skill and professionalism and toughness and grace," said Mr. Obama. "If Senator McCain and Senator Graham and others want to go after somebody, they should go after me. And I'm happy to have that discussion with them. But for them to go after the U.N. ambassador? Who had nothing to do with Benghazi? And was simply making a presentation based on intelligence that she had received? To besmirch her reputation is outrageous."

Lay off the phony "war on women" nonsense, Barack. You are the one who sent U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice to be the public face of your Benghazi lies instead of doing it yourself. Rice lied on your behalf and under your direction, you coward. Four Americans died because of your cowardice, a fact you now try to hide behind your continued lies and fake outrage.

Pelosi Will Remain Democratic Leader in House; Few Changes in Leadership

As her staff tried repeatedly to prevent reporters from asking more than a few questions, an animated Ms. Pelosi seemed to enjoy her moment, saying she would use the next two years to help elect more women and to fight the role of money in politics. She became visibly exercised when a reporter suggested that the age of the slate of Democratic leaders — all are over 70 — was preventing younger leaders from advancing in the party.

“You’ve always asked that question except to Mitch McConnell,” Ms. Pelosi said, referring to the Senate Republican leader, who is 70, as a group of women behind her booed and yelled, “Age discrimination!” “Let’s for a moment honor it as a legitimate question, although it’s quite offensive, though you don’t realize it, I guess,” she added before answering: “No.”

0bama's "Math": Multiplying Deficits and Debt; Subtracting Opportunity and Economic Freedom

Budget deficit rises to $120 billion in October

Growth in expenditures outpaced rising receipts, deepening the deficit. Outlays grew to $304 billion from around $262 billion in the same month last year while receipts rose to $184 billion from $163 billion.

"The Emperor's New Clothes" (Danish: Kejserens nye Klæder) is a short tale by Hans Christian Andersen about two weavers who promise an Emperor a new suit of clothes that is invisible to those unfit for their positions, stupid, or incompetent. When the Emperor parades before his subjects in his new clothes, a child cries out, "But he isn't wearing anything at all!"

0bama has been parading for four years and will parade for another four but the truth remains: "... he isn't wearing anything at all!"
