Hypocrisy in the press. Improving economy under Bush=Disaster, Economic collapse under Obama=Great news

And the presidential approval nosedive continues: Daily Presidential Tracking Poll – Rasmussen Reports™

The more people learn, they more they dislike Obama.  As he shows his true colors and the lies are proven to be lies, Obama pisses off more and more people. 

I know a lot of people who ignored everything I said and voted for Obama.  Ask them now about it and you get “well, I didn’t know he was like this” or “I would rather not talk about it”

Overall, 46% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the President’s performance. That’s the lowest level of total approval yet measured for Obama. Fifty-three percent (53%) now disapprove. Eighty-one percent (81%) of Democrats approve while 83% of Republicans disapprove. As for those not affiliated with either major party, 66% disapprove. See other recent demographic highlights from the tracking polls.

Scarborough: Obama Admin Must Have Signed Off On Lockerbie Terrorist Release | NewsBusters.org

Hmmm.  Do I see a leaked memo in the near future?

If Joe Scarborough is right, this could be a game-changing blow to Barack Obama . . .
On today’s Morning Joe, Scarborough left no doubt that he believes the Obama administration acquiesced to the release by the British government of Abdelbaset Al Megrahi, the convicted Lockerbie murderer and terrorist.

Scarborough was reacting to reports suggesting that, contrary to initial claims, the release was done at the behest of Gordon Brown’s British government, and was not an independent move by Scotland.

Jim DeMint Fires Up The Base, And Annoys NY Times Liberals

Image via Wikipedia

I really like it when a politician has the guts to stand up and say what I say every day.  ObamaCare is not about health care… It’s about control.

The funny part of all this is that when DeMint made his famous comment about health care being Obama’s Waterloo, some conservatives slammed him on it.  I’m glad he didn’t listen to their calls to shut up.

Click through to the original story.  Its got a lot of good quotes and insight.

When one man said the major House bill would give the government electronic access to bank accounts, Mr. DeMint told him the bill was never about health care. "This is about more government control," he declared. "If it was about health care, we could get it done in a couple of weeks."

Jim DeMint Fires Up The Base, And Annoys NY Times Liberals – Right Wing News (Conservative News and Views)

Funny video. Dog refuses “Obama” treats.

I wonder how long it took to train the dog to do that.  I wonder if the training can be applied to Liberals.

I don’t think that Liberals can read. That’s the problem.

In the USA Today interview Tom Ridge admits he was never pressured to raise the alert level.  This guy is so bogus.  What is wrong with the people who used to work with Bush that think that the way to get a book popular is smear the Bush administration?  All it does in make the liberals happy and guarantee that the book will flop.

Michelle Malkin’s book, “Culture of Corruption” is doing OUTSTANDING.  Why?  It has conservative values and truthful information in it.

Mark Levin’s “Liberty and Tyranny: A Conservative Manifesto” has stayed in the top 5 for a long time.

Number 2 right now is “In the President’s Secret Service” by conservative author, Ronald Kessler.

O’Reily books do exceedingly well every time.  Most of the books on the NYTs bestsellers list are usually conservative.

So, why is this?  Its easy to understand once you realize the problem.  Liberals can’t read.

Obama has been reading the same book for over a year now.

Gibbs wouldn’t even answer the question when asked if he would read the health care bill.

The Washington Times had this to say:

Let Freedom Ring, a nonprofit public-policy organization, has provided a handy diagnostic tool to test for this disease. Repeatedly, via fax, e-mail, regular mail and personal visits, Let Freedom Ring has asked members of Congress to sign a simple pledge. Its text states, “I pledge to my constituents and to the American people that I will not vote to enact any healthcare reform package that: 1) I have not read, personally, in its entirety; and, 2) Has not been available, in its entirety, to the American people on the Internet for at least 72 hours, so they can read it too.”

Nothing could be simpler. Nothing could be more basic. On a bill that would fundamentally reshape one-sixth of the economy and involve something as personal and important as individual health care, the American public has a right to expect that the final version would be open and available for all to see before Congress votes on it. That’s Representative Democracy 101.

Yet of 100 senators, just eight have signed the pledge, while another, Sen. Jon Kyl, Arizona Republican, sent a separate letter of support. Of 435 House members, just 106 have signed. It’s an insult to the public that elected public servants so brazenly refuse to commit themselves to reading laws they will impose on the rest of us.

They are not too keen on anyone else reading either.

Why focus your books for a Liberal market?  Stop trying to pander to liberals and tell the truth.  These people should focus on the market that actually does read and pay attention to details and consequences.

Now, maybe I am wrong.  Maybe they can read.  Obama sure seems to base his administration on the writings of Marx and Stalin.  Oh, never mind.  I figured it out.  He has this book.

UPDATE:  Michelle Malkin just put this up.

Is the Kindle more Eco-friendly than actual books? If you read more than 5 books a year, the answer is yes.

I know this is not political, but with all the eco-crap out there, lets find something that is good for the environment and awesome as hell.  I am a BIG fan of e-books and own both a Kindle and a Sony PRS-700.  I read every day and love these things.  If you have never tried using an E-ink based devices, go down to a Staples or Microcenter and check them out.

To fill you in if you don’t know.  E-ink is a special type of display that is as easy to read as paper, does not have a backlight like a laptop, and only needs power when the display is actually changed.  This means that instead of hours of reading time, you get days, even weeks.  Its just as easy to read as a regular book and I have even caught myself trying to flip the page.  The Kindle is unique because currently it is the only one that uses a wireless connection to download your books, blogs, magazines, newspapers, etc.  (The connection is cellular based and is free with the device).  These e-book readers can hold hundreds to thousands of books at a time.

Amazon is trying to get college textbooks available for the Kindle as well.  Imagine one small e-book instead of all those school books.

If you are one of those people who reads more than 5 books per year then a Kindle is definitely for you. According to a report by the Cleantech Group, the Kindle is more environmentally friendly than paper books.
The publishing industry is one of the most polluting sectors in the world. In 2008, The U.S. Book and newspaper industries combined resulted in the harvesting of 125 million trees.
The report by the Cleantech Group, titled "The Environmental Impact of Amazon’s Kindle" looks at the emissions that devices could produce and prevent. According to the report, a single Kindle displaces the purchase of 22.5 books each year which results in an estimated carbon savings of 168 kg of CO2. It also says that if the full storage of the Kindle is used then the device prevents almost 11,185 kg of CO2 from being released. That is a significant amount and could help the environment drastically especially with sales of the Kindle expecting to touch 14.4 million in 2012.

Well, this actually explains a lot.  It explains why Obama wanted him to mediate.  It explains why Obama likes the guy.

How long before Obama calls for “a new constitution that would expand executive powers and get rid of “unnecessary checks” on the president’s authority”?  So far, he is doing it by creating “czars” with expanding power, no oversight, and no electoral or Congressional approval.

The Organization of American States (OAS) and the US put its hopes for a settlement of the Honduran crisis in Oscar Arias, president of Costa Rica, who agreed to arbitrate between deposed president Manuel Zelaya and the current government in Tegulcigapa, headed by Roberto Micheletti.  Those negotiations have proved fruitless, but perhaps that’s because Arias may not exactly be an honest broker in the dispute.  Juan Carlos Hidalgo at Cato reports that Arias wants to do exactly the same thing in Costa Rica that got Zelaya the boot in Honduras:

President Oscar Arias of Costa Rica has joined the trend in Latin America of calling for a new constitution that would expand executive powers and get rid of “unnecessary checks” on the president’s authority. Although Arias has less than 9 months left in office and can’t run for reelection, his brother and current minister of the presidency — a primer minister of sorts — has openly said he’s interested in running for president in 2014. A new constitution with expanded executive powers would fit him just fine.

Gateway Pundit: Figures. Obama Cuts Off Aid to Honduras Over His Misreading of the Law

I have spoken about Honduras before.

Obama didn’t “misread” anything.  He planned it this way.  He will NOT ever support anything that holds a President accountable to the law, nor will he support anything that is against socialism, totalitarianism, or any despot.

That would be like turning on himself.

One more ally that Obama throws away.  We will have SO much work repairing the devastation this President is causing.

The news that President Obama will cut off aid to our ally Honduras did not make many headlines this week but it should have. Barack Obama is openly siding with Marxists Raul Castro, Hugo Chavez and Daniel Ortega in punishing the government of Honduras.
Not only that but Obama misread the laws to come to his conclusion.
