HOW MANY MORE LIES DO YOU NEED???

hello america!!! yeah, i know, 'why don't you rub it in my face knowitall?'---you were warned by many that this   http://azdailysun.com/news/state-and-regional/college-workers-hours-to-be-cut-over-health-care/article_b589756b-05cd-5561-b991-b4840fa995a3.html   was going to happen &, obama & company said it wouldn't---in fact, they actually told you that obamacare would create millions of jobs.

well, since you believed obama & company were telling you the truth, perhaps you can explain the following...http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/01/10/a-growing-trend-more-restaurants-cutting-employee-hours-in-preparation-of-obamacare/

& this comes from the wall street journal...http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887324616604578304072420873666.html

i wonder what those 1,300 college workers (whose hours will be cut) & others are saying about obamacare creating jobs &, about the repubs that warned them it wouldn't??????????????

WE NEED BETTER TRAINING!!!

hello america!!! the following link shows the fbi should have had the boston bombers on their radar screen but, they didn't...http://news.yahoo.com/russia-asked-fbi-investigate-boston-bomb-suspect-2011-182116158.html

& then, there's this...http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-04-21/boston-bomb-suspect-s-citizenship-bid-is-part-of-probe.html?cmpid=yhoo

which brings us to this...http://news.yahoo.com/boston-marathon-bombing-blame-game-begins-210800101.html

there's plenty of blame to go around on why this was allowed to happen at an event that had a large, visable police & security presence &, this video will prove just that...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xiXroQp8t4     &, before i make my point, please take the time to study this picture & perhaps you'll make my point for me..........there are at least 11 cops in this picture.............

the following youtube link is 9:17 long however, i want to draw your attention to the 1:18 mark & the 1:26 mark. just look at the police (in yellow vests) & staffers/security (in yellow jackets)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdgGj7wON10

here's the breakdown::::in the beginning, police & security are actually facing the crowd but a short time later, they turned their backs to the crowd to watch the race. now, i'm not saying they would have been able to actually spot the bombers planting the bombs &, i'm not blaming them. however, king kong could have planted a bomb to their turned backs.

we need to tighten up the training of those we place in positions to keep us safe. perhaps nobody would have spotted a backpack placed on the wrong side of the barrier & then again, it's hard to see what's coming from the east when you're facing west.

so, while many are happy with the boson police & our fbi, hindsight has proven that they (collectively) turned their backs &, before you call me an asshole, can you tell me how many secret service people would still be employed today if they turned their backs to the crowd to watch obama give a speech & somebody took a shot at him? 

no, i'm not calling for anybody's job however, i am calling for "better" training. we dropped the ball with the 9/11 airplane hijackers; we dropped the ball in benghazi; &, we dropped the ball in boston...what's next???

DOUBLE STANDARDS AT THEIR VERY BEST!!!

hello america!!! i don't wish to seem callous however, when i see how the authorities respond to the boston bombings, it makes me wonder if one persons life is more valuable than another's? the authorities locked down several communities in & around boston & launched a massive door-to-door search for the boston bombing suspect & the major media outlets have given the search continuous coverage. look, i really don't care how you feel about what's going on but hey, if they treated all homicides like this, there would be a lot less of them....

while i feel for 8 year old martin richard's family & friends & yes, i am very sympathetic, i have problems grasping what has been done for some but not for others.......this is the 8 year old's story & it deserves telling...http://www.cnn.com/2013/04/16/us/boston-boy-killed/index.html    & then, you have this & you all don't say shit & the media doesn't cover it like they should...http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/03/19/17373987-funeral-held-for-six-month-old-shot-in-chicago?lite   &, we damn well know the authorities don't treat it the same.

good people, call me what you wish to but, let's just look at the facts:::::shooting in that aurora theater---all over the news; virginia tech shootings---all over the news; sandy hook shootings---all over the news......no problem. 500 plus homicides (230 plus of them children) in 2012 in chicago---extremely little coverage...WHY??? is it because 392 of the homicides were black (77.01%)????-------so yeah, america, you got me wondering & hey, i don't like what i'm seeing because it points directly to racism.

how can a 6 month old being shot to death not be plastered all over the news? is it because she's black??? is it because she's not living in an affluent neighborhood???

so yeah, i have a problem when i see the death of the white 8 year old daily & none of the same reporting news agencies saying shit about a little black, 6 month old girl.........

GUN CONTROL!!!

hello america!!! i have reached the point (concerning gun control) where being nice & polite doesn't pay. so, before i get into it, let me say this::::
#1.....any gun control proposal has to have a workable plan to take (& keep) illegal guns off our streets & out of the hands of gangs, criminals &, the mentally challenged.
#2.....a minimum of 15 years prison time needs to be added to anybody convicted of a crime with a gun & must run consecutive to any other sentences.
#3.....a minimum of 10 years prison time needs to be given to those caught with illegal or stolen guns.
#4.....a minimum of 15 years prison time needs to be given to those caught selling guns illegally.
#5.....assault-type weapons must be banned from the general public.
#6.....a minimum of 15 years prison time needs to be given to anybody convicted of altering a gun to convert it to an automatic.

i'm sure congress can add more mandatory prison time to other gun related crimes, i.e; having a legal gun in the home & having it found in your vehicle when you're just driving around. yes, we're going to over-pack our jails however we can build new ones as needed. it sure beats creating more burial space.....we have to get serious &, by adding more mandatory jail time, the thugs would get the message in short time.

now, i am against 'background checks' so, i'll use obamas own argument against them: those applying for a gun would need to prove who they are & this would create an undue hardship on those that don't have & can't afford gov't issued id cards.......obama, surely you can remember how dead-set you are against people being able to prove who they are...........

NEW JOBLESS CLAIMS!!!

hello america!!! while a lot of you are caught up in the tragedies that occurred in boston & texas, let's not forget that another national tragedy is constantly happening (week-after-week-after week)---JOBS---or lack thereof. the new jobless claims came out at 352,000 &, although obama talks about jobs, his inaction belie his words.

obama promised you jobs back in 2009 & you elected him twice to deliver on that promise. he shot down gov romney's plans for putting america back to work; he refused the advice of his own appointed 'jobs council' & eventually fired them; he's refused to pressure the dem controled senate to act on the house-passed (jobs related) bills just sitting there; &, he still blames everything & everyone else for the lack of jobs.

& just think, we have 3 more years of this to look forward to---you have to be thrilled to know that obama will give you food stamps long before he will give you a job.

SENATE GUN BILL FAILURE WAS A JOKE FROM THE BEGINNING!!!

hello america!!! just like he did when his 'dream act' failed to pass the senate, obama will do the same for the  senate 'gun vote'---he will blame the repubs. 5 dems voted against the dream act then & 4 dems voted against the 'gun bill' today. both bills needed 60 votes to pass &, in reality, both bills failed because of the dems that voted 'nay', not the repubs...didn't know that did you?????????

before the blame game starts, the dems control 55 out 100 seats in the senate. had senate majority leader harry reid been able to keep his own party together &, had he voted 'yea', the dems would have only needed 1 vote from the repubs for the bills passage---instead, they got 4 repubs to vote 'yea' & 4 dems voted 'nay'. the bill failed 54-46.

the gun control issue was a joke from the beginning. yes, even i can see banning 'assault type' weapons however, they can be purchased illegally so, banning them & requiring background checks won't have any effect on those using them to do harm.

instead of obama running his mouth about the vote, he should be spending his time trying to come up with a workable plan to get guns out of the hands of the criminals & gangs.

&, you should laugh at that 7 bullets per magazine crap. can't you imagine the bad guys only loading 7 bullets in a 30 round magazine just to be playing by the rules?  &, if they did comply with that BS, what's to prevent them from having several 7 round magazines on hand? hell, a 6 shot revolver kills & maims people too.

it's a sad day when our senate can spend all this time on 'gun control' & not be able to offer anything to us that will actually help keep us safer &, for that, i blame obama. afterall, he's supposed to be the 'so-called leader'...where's his 'gun control' blueprint?

by the way, does anybody know how many deaths could be prevented by requiring back ground checks???

FOOD FOR THOUGHT IN BOSTON!!!

hello america!!! in regards to the boston bombings, we can argue about who did it & why however, for me, the essential question still remains: how did they do it? in this day & age of technology & heavy police presence, how could this be allowed to happen? wasn't anybody scanning the crowds & barriers near the finish line? didn't anybody see the 'suspected' backpack on the wrong side of the barrier? where were the 'bomb sniffing' dogs at?

i know it's early in the investigation however, immediately following the first blast, the area was flooded with police (wearing yellow vests with guns drawn) & responders---&, i mean immediately. the response time was fantastic!!! so yes, there were plenty of police at the finish line but, what were they doing to keep them from noticing a backpack on the wrong side of the barrier? hell, there are pictures of it---the before & after right next to what looks like a green, metal mailbox. on the other hand, why didn't the person taking the photos tell the authorities?

as i've previously written, the bombings cause more questions than answers............
