i am not heartless so, please don't take this the wrong way. facebook & twitter have been on fire because of the senseless killings of those young, innocent &, unprotected children in connecticut &, i applaud your voices however, i very seldom see the same uproar when lives are stolen from us right in our own backyards because of violence. we're plagued by the gangs & drugs: our community's & schools are infested with & by them. &, the drive-by's still occur. other then a few RIP's on facebook & a little story on the news, that's it.
if i told you that on wednesday, 12 dec, a 15 year old female allen high school student was shot in the leg on 16th & turner (one block from the school) around 2:45pm & is expected to be okay, would you believe me?
http://articles.mcall.com/2012-12-12/news/mc-allentown-shooting-16th-turner-streets-
if i told you that just hours before what happened at Sandy Hook, an 18 year old was arrested in oklahoma for plotting to attack his high school, would you believe me? http://news.yahoo.com/okla-teen-arrested-school-shooting-plot-184243533.html
if i told you that on saturday, 15 dec, a 42 year old man was arrested after firing 50 shots in the parking lot of a busy california mall &, fortunately, no one was hurt, would you believe me? http://news.yahoo.com/man-fires-50-shots-calif-mall-parking-lot-042034513.html
if i told you that on tuesday, 11 dec, a 22 year old man killed 2 people & wounded another before his rifle jammed in a busy oregon mall, would you believe me? http://abcnews.go.com/US/oregon-mall-gunman-identified-jacob-tyler-roberts/story?id=17941415#.UM3ZceTBGYU
would you believe me if i told you that school & mall violence is not just restricted to our country alone?
http://worldnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2012/12/14/15901085-villager-slashes-22-kids-with-knife-at-elementary-school-gates-in-china?lite
this is a time-line of senseless violence since 1996...http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0777958.html
& this is another time-line...http://news.yahoo.com/tiimeline-major-shooting-incidents-united-states-185007308.html
while i join those in prayers for the stolen lives & their family & friends, i ask myself, just how in the hell did we get to this point where one person can inflict so much damage at will? nobody can convince me that the shooter in Sandy Hook just woke up friday morning & decided he was going to kill innocent children. he killed his mother first, according to the reports. somewhere along the lines, we either missed the signals, ignored them or, we just didn't care enough to do anything about them.
while we may never know the absolute reasons for what pushed this shooter over the edge, you cannot tell me that in his 20 short years of life that he has always been 'normal'.
&, kill that, 'well, the shooters are all white' thing. remember the dc snipers? a killing is a killing &, in the inner city's, it's black's killing black's, latino's killing latino's, white's killing white's. hell, take a look at chicago youth violence in 2011...http://www.npr.org/2011/03/21/132678405/chicagos-schools-police-work-to-stem-violence
&, this was printed june 2012...http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/06/26/chicago-public-school-stu_n_1627258.html
&, don't forget all the work-place violence...
good people, the answer isn't stricter gun laws because that only leaves you without one. we need to be able to identify these troubled people sooner & get them the mental help they so desperately need...

ESPN, FIRST TAKE/ROB PARKER!!!
first of all, i'm an american---pure & simple! i was born in america & i am black. i resent the term 'african american' &, here's why. we are the only people that allow a continent (very few of us know much about) to precede our being fully recognized as american. the term also harkens back to that once popular white saying, 'go back to where you came from'. since espn (first take) wants to delve into these 'non-sports' issues, i can only hope they will pursue all sides of the topic.
rob parker is entitled to his opinion however, had that of been a white man saying what he said, there would have been an immediate uproar from the non-white communities & calls for his firing.
are black americans to remain being defined by their skin color first & accomplishments second? when & where will it stop? all of you are guilty of perpetrating this color injustice. i,e; you recently had that debate about african american coaches verses white coaches & there is the rub...you lumped all the black coaches in one category, african americans. where as, the white coaches were simply white. i didn't miss your point about the coaching employment situation &, i hope you're not naive enough to miss mine.
when you talk about other successful american athletes, you never define them like you do blacks. i've never heard you or any other sports reporters or talk show hosts refer to tom brady or john elway as 'white american' &, you judge them by their accomplishments. enter michael vick or rglll &, their instantly 'african americans' & judged against african american donovan mcnabb.
before you all get bent out of shape trying to cover your butts, when have you ever described other successful athletes by using their country of origin first? such as; steve nash---have you ever said, south african american; ernie els, south african american; hector camacho, puerto rican american; shawn bradley, west german american???????do you get my point?
i want my life's achievements defined by my individualism, not my skin color.

PA STANDS UP!!!
hello america!!! pennsylvania, you wanted obama, you got obama...you wanted obamacare, you got obamacare. &, thanks to gov corbett, the fed gov't will be setting up the 'exchange' for you, since he rejected it. hope you like it...
in keeping with my usual cynical self:::there are several questions that should be asked by those wishing to rely on obama, such as: when will it be in place? how much will it cost you as an individual? what will be covered? where are the feds getting the money to get it up & running? what must you do to qualify? will i be able to keep the doctor i now have? how come all the rules, regulations & paperwork are not in place yet? where can i go to get more information? (THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION SHOULD BE), what 'say' do i have in the matter or do i just have to accept obamacare as it is/supposed to be?
pa, i didn't want you to think i made this stuff up so, here are 2 articles on it...http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2968134/posts

WILLIAM ALLEN HIGH SCHOOL!!!
hello america!!! i live 2 1/2 blocks from the school &, just about every other day, there's a fight, of some sort, right outside my house. while a lot of the fights only involve the couple that's fighting (whether it be males or females), the audience is worth noting because at times, it has numbered in the hundreds. yes, the police are called & have a pretty good response time but, how pro-active can they be when a fight can break out at any time? another thing the police do is, they'll see large crowds & try to move them on before anything actually happens but, all this does is move the fight down the street.
while the following incident is unfortunate, it can't be stopped &, as soon as the police start doing more than they have been doing, the very people that condemn the the violence will be the first one's in line shouting about their little joey's rights...http://www.wfmz.com/news/news-regional-lehighvalley/Officials-Allen-High-School-student-shot-blocks-from-school/-/132502/17752902/-/maqcej/-/index.html
the students know when & where these incidents are going to occur &, they also know who's involved however, if they come forward, they're branded a 'snitch' &, short of moving out of town, it's all downhill for them as soon as they open their mouths.
i don't know where this school stands on an educational basis however, i do know there are gangs & drugs throughout the school &, in reality, they are as much a part of the curriculum as is math & science. as long as we have the gangs & drugs in the schools, we will always have the violence that accompany them, unless we put laws on the books that allow our police to act on their feelings (IN GOOD FAITH) instead of having to wait until something actually happens which, is usually too late. until then, at best, we should hope that these incidents don't end up being more serious then the one listed above.

YOU CHOSE BIG BIRD OVER JOBS!!!
hello america!!! i love this site...http://www.dailyjobcuts.com/ they just post the articles & numbers &, you can follow up to make your own determination as to what to believe. i.e; the gov't has been issuing jobs numbers that many are now starting to challenge & then, we have this...http://frontpagemag.com/2012/dgreenfield/73-of-new-jobs-in-last-5-months-are-in-government/ follow up on it by doing your own homework---it's things like this that have to make you wonder why you voted for someone that kept giving you wrong information...like our manufacturing sector was doing so well & yet, they were going in the opposite direction.
you should know that obamacare is going to cost you one hell of a lot more then obama said it would. every tax/penalty that company's have to pay is going to be passed on to you &, just so you'll know, here's another one to get ready for...http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/12/10/obamacare-pre-existing-condition-fee_n_2273005.html while i'm in favor of coverage despite pre-existing conditions, even i know it's going to cost company's more which is a nice way of saying, you got suckered again.
now, you might be part of that delusional group of people that think nothing will happen to you or your coverage but, i'm here to tell you differently: if you work at a company that does provide healthcare coverage that employs 50 employees, are you saying that they are just going to 'EAT' that $3,150 tax per year?---&, remember, that's in addition to the other tax increases they will be tagged with? either your company is going to severely cut your full time hours to get around obamacare, terminate you & others to get under the 50 person limit, stop offering you coverage or, charge you more for your coverage. how stupid am i now???
a lot of you were all for obamacare when there were others on the repub side telling you of the dangers of it becoming law...now, you're about to find out & hell, this effects the 'middle class' a lot more then those 1%'ers...bet you thought that coverage for pre-existing conditions was a great thing---wonder how you'll feel when it actually costs you more money; your job; less hours; &, at worse, no coverage at all.........
&, just think, there's a hell of a lot more of obamacare to come.........

OBAMACARE STRIKES SOON!!!
hello america!!! as you were forewarned by the repubs, obamacare is not for everyone, neither is it as 'affordable' as obama & company would like you to believe...something else you don't want to know is: too many of you are going to end up stuck in the middle, that is; when you lose your present healthcare coverage you're going to find that you make/made too much to qualify for obamacare &, you're not making enough to afford new fed gov't acceptable coverage---but fear not. the fed gov't (IRS) will find you & you'll be fined/taxed for not having that coverage. by the way, just so you'll know, this will fall on the middle class alone because, the rich can afford their own coverage & the poor will qualify for obamacare. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-11-29/unaffordable-cost-seen-for-some-under-affordable-care-act.html
many company's are going to drop offering their employees healthcare coverage &, on top of that, they're going to cut back their workers hours, make them part timer's & be able to avoid the obamacare penalty. this will also negatively affect hiring.
so tell me, who actually benefits from obamacare the most? the poor can already get medical benefits through public welfare; the rich can afford their own; the middle class is going to be kicked in the proverbial ass once again---
i have to take my hat off to obama. he sucked you into giving him 4 more years. you have to admire a person that, through his obamacare, protects the rich & puts the burden squarely on the middle class & those on the fringe.

HOW MANY TIMES CAN YOU GET THE SAME THING WRONG???
hello america!!! call me a hater; call me an uncle tom; call me an idiot---i really don't care what you call me because the facts & the numbers back me up so, i can only wonder what that makes you &, i really don't care about that either. so, at the risk of pissing you off, let me get to it..........
if we had more people working, the fed gov't would collect more revenue---more revenue means that they would not have to borrow more money to pay their bills or for the services they now provide. they also would be able to pay down our national debt. so, in reality, jobs & our national debt go hand-in-hand. that said, obama is concentrating on raising the tax rates on those making $250,000 per year &, apparently you believe that's how we'll get out of this mess because you gave him a second term. how very wrong you are & here's why...........
obama just doesn't run the gov't like you run your home &, you can argue all you want but, if you lose your job, you cut back on your expenditures. sure, you might borrow a little here & there to make ends meet but, sooner or later, you know you'll have to stop the borrowing because, if you don't, the next job you get will be strictly to pay off the bills. you cut here, you cut there i.e; no more eating out, no more movie rentals, cut your cable bill back to basic, get rid of the car---you do what you have to while trying to make it to better days......
obama doesn't think like that. he continues to spend our money while refusing to make any cuts in spending. let's say he gets to raise the tax rates on the 1%'ers---that pays for the gov't to run for 8 lousy days. that's the easy part...now, we're faced with raising our national debt ceiling once again---guess we raise the gasoline tax to help out there. &, before you get your hopes up, that 'fiscal cliff' you keep hearing about is 31 days away---guess we can institute a mileage tax on car drivers to help pay for that.
our problem isn't in raising tax rates, our problem is spending combined with a lack of JOBS....
the new jobless claims number came out & it is 393,000. yeah, i know, we turned the corner. that's like the blind man telling the other man with no eyes at to 'look out'...check these jobless claims numbers out...
nov 1st, 363,000
nov 8th, 355,000---revised up to 361,000
nov 14th, 439,00---revised up to 451,000
nov 21st, 410,000---revised up to 416,000 &, there's today's
nov 29th, 393,000---which will be revised up next week &, please remember these figures are 1 week behind.......
anyway, from nov 8th-nov 29th we had 1,621,000 new jobless claims. the numbers released on dec 6th will complete the month of nov &, we'll be very close to two million new claims for the month of nov. if those people were working, the fed gov't would be receiving revenue from them in the form of taxes. local merchants would be receiving more business from them & paying their own fed taxes---loss of jobs affects us all across the board.
obama should be concentrating on putting america back to work instead of raising the tax rates on the 1%'ers that will end up filtering down to us.
still think i'm an idiot???

NOT A MANDATE!!!
hello america!!! while obama & company are quick to say america voted for the tax rate increase on those making $200,000 per year, i have to agree however, quit a few of them voted against it. obama & the dem senate retained their majority as did the rep controlled house...it was not the clear cut 'mandate' the dems are saying it was & does not grant them license to 'bully' america or the repubs into doing things their way or else. hell, here's the fact; out of 125,657,870 total votes cast &, you win by 4,516,190, you are being told that the country wants you to work together.

EYGPT'S A PROBLEM!!!
hello america!!! obama welcome egyptian morsi to office with welcome arms but, he may have made a big mistake. if the demonstrations continue in egypt, obama may be forced to completely backtrack on all things middle east. his strong active support is coming back to bite him &, he has only himself to blame for it.
this was 17 days ago...http://www.foxnews.com/world/2012/11/23/opponents-egypt-islamic-president-clash-with-backers-over-new-powers/
&, look at it now...http://news.yahoo.com/egypt-mass-protests-challenge-islamist-president-175352891.html
how many lives will be lost before obama jumps on the wagon either calling for stability or, calling for the other throw of president morsi? on the other hand, this is but another 'speedbump'
after all this time, obama just doesn't understand these middle east people &, for whatever reason, he ignores the fact that these country's have never been ruled by a democracy & probably never will. obamas middle east foreign policy is seriously flawed &, he doesn't know how to fix it.

SUCKED IN AGAIN!!!
hello america!!! well, it's too late to re-vote but, as you read the links below, the questions should be: 1, why are we just now hearing about these numbers? & 2, how in the hell is raising the taxes on just the rich going to help us?
the answer to #1 is; nobody seemed to have put all the numbers together or, if they did, they flat out lied to us. obama had to know because all of these numbers had to cross his desk so he'd know just how much money we need to pay our bills.
http://www.newsmax.com/newswidget/government-debt-burden-treasury/2012/11/27/id/465500?promo_code=F470-1&utm_source=Fox_Politics&utm_medium=nmwidget&utm_campaign=widgetphase2
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887323353204578127374039087636.html?KEYWORDS=86+trillion+total+debt
we all know about the $16 trillion number &, apparently, our fed gov't decided that that is all we should know about. there is no way in hell that you or anybody like you can convince me that our treasury dep't didn't know the real amount of debt, nor can you convince me that they kept that info from obama.
the answer to #2 is: it doesn't. we just won't generate enough revenue if we only raise the tax rates on those making $200,000 or more. while it may seem to be a talking point that obama wants to make good on, charging the rich more just to help the middle class is not only wrong, it won't work. in truth, i believe it will have the opposite effect on america that obama & company refuse to accept...&, that is; it will hurt our job growth because it would effect everybody & every business making about $547.94 per day or, those making about $3,846.15 per week. that's a lot of small business's that are going to feel that pain & because of it, they will hire less. when you have to pay more, you're forced to do less.

WHAT A SURPRISE!!!
hello america!!! we knew what the muslim brotherhood was all about before they even visited the whitehouse this year. they said they would not have a horse in the presidential race & yet, their leader won. how is a surprise that will not change their ways? oh, i know. hilary clinton went over there & had a very successful conversation with somebody &, obama had conversations with somebody & both were glowing in their success---no matter how short-lived it turned out to be. i just can't understand why the following is a surprise...http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/11/23/egypt-president-usa-idUSL1E8MN4DI20121123
it seems that we will be forced to accept whatever obama & company tell us until the crap hits the fan & then, they go into 'super-spin' mode.....http://www.nytimes.com/2012/09/29/world/middleeast/white-house-move-to-give-egypt-450-million-in-aid-meets-resistance.html
it's amazing how quickly things change...by the way, here's the article about the visit to the whitehouse.........http://www.politico.com/politico44/2012/04/muslim-brotherhood-delegation-meets-with-white-house-119647.html

IT'S CALLED BLACK!!!
hello america!!! here we go again; our 'so-called' black leaders are wishing for something that just isn't a part of reality...http://news.yahoo.com/black-voters-look-leverage-loyalty-081601828--election.html however, before i get into it, please allow me to ask these people, just how many times has obama openly spoke about 'black america'? for four years, we've all heard obama refer to latino's, middle-class &, the one percenter's. i just can't recall him talking about black america exclusively. in truth, he seems to have gone out of his way not to use any specific term that refers directly to blacks. please prove me wrong.
while these 'so-called' leaders may 'demand' a seat at the table, at best, it would only be a token seat. perhaps they fail to remember how obama 'dressed' them down at the black caucus this past september in a way he would not talk to white america &, they applauded him for saying the following...
"I expect all of you to march with me, and press on," Obama said. "... Stop complaining, stop grumbling, stop crying. We are going to press on. We've got work to do."
& just so you can't say i make this stuff up, here's obamas speech &, unless i'm blind & deaf, he mentioned black owned businesses & african americans once each...http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/2011/09/25/president-obama-congressional-black-caucus-foundation-annual-dinner-march-me-and-pre
i have a big problem with being called an african american. yes, i'm black & perhaps my heritage can be traced back to africa but hell, i was born right here in the good ole USA & that makes me a 'black american'. golfer ernie els was born in africa & if he were to be granted american citizenship, he would be an african american. hopefully, you understand me.
while jobs should be the number one priority, infrastructure jobs usually go to those that are best trained to perform them. &, even here i have a big problem with obama & these leaders...how in the hell can those blacks & latino's get those jobs without that all-important valid id card you fought so hard to keep them from having? it's really quite simple (which is why you all missed it), no id---no job.
you talk about jobs but not cleaning up the black communities. you talk about education but not cleaning up the black communities. it's amazing that nobody wants to talk about the drugs, the gangs, the violence & crimes, the babies having babies at 13, 14, 15 years old that plague our communities. what's even more then amazing is: you offer no plans to help our communities. you can organize massive marches but you can't organize them where they are really needed.
here it is, four years later &, looking back at them, i can't see where obama has made a difference in the black community. unemployment is too high; the education level is too low; hope has turned to living on foodstamps, etc....
&, obama has four more years---to do what?

451,000, then 410,000---WHAT'S NEXT???
hello america!!! last weeks jobless claims has been revised from 439,000 to 451,000. this weeks new jobless claims is 410,000. if you remember, the gov't & others blamed the high numbers on superstorm sandy. while one might believe that business's could not open or get their employees in, the flip side of that is all the extra work the storm created...
well, i have some concerns---this is the retailers busiest time of the year with thanksgiving tomorrow & christmas right around the corner. so, hiring should have been up. the mail-order & internet business's even pick up. hell, fedex, ups & the post office hire extra employees for these times. everybody's geared up for black friday. so, there's got to be more to our high jobless claims then superstorm sandy...
let's see::::40 states & territories had an increase in claims while 13 had a decrease ; 3.34 million people (as of nov 10th) are collecting unemployment benefits; 2.19 million people (as of nov 3rd) are collecting emergency or extended benefits.
this is the labor dep't link...http://www.dol.gov/opa/media/press/eta/ui/current.htm#.UKzgGOTBGYU
you don't have to be a calculus major to know we have serious jobs problems &, regardless of who's doing the math, the numbers are horrible. for the past 4 years, we've all heard the rhetoric coming from obama & company that they are the only ones with the 'vision' to put america back to work. &, we all know that that 'vision' was applied to our problems &, here it is, 4 years later & we're told it takes more time...so , i guess we have to wait & see that which we already know---obama has no idea how to put us back to work but, he sounds so convincing & sincere when he says he does.........

4 MORE YEARS IS A LONG TIME!!!
hello america!!! here's your jobs situation...http://www.dailyjobcuts.com/ layoffs & closings continue despite what obama & company tell you. if you went to the link, you'll know that november has not been kind to the jobs market.
while some have lost their job & can't find a suitable replacement, i happen to know of a young man that is working two jobs to make ends meet:::fork lifter by day & security by night. that tells me all i need to know about our moving 'forward'. good paying jobs are hard to come by &, keeping your present job is up in the air. there is nobody in the obama admin that seems to know what to do to get our economy growing at the rate we need it to grow at. we've had four years of why our unemployment numbers are so high & no action to reverse the course.
& america, you voted for four more years of this!!! he's already said he wants more teachers, firemen &, policemen; infrastructure jobs; job training programs; &, 'green' investments. how does that move our economy forward? it did not work the first time &, it will not work now.
regardless of who you voted for, one thing remains extremely clear: when we need a true leader the most, he disappears. his overseas visit could have waited because the 'fiscal cliff' & 'jobs' should be his number one priority.

947 COMING SOON!!!
hello america!!! while some of you may think you're 'safe' with your employment & healthcare coverage, i'm here to tell you that we are now seeing is only the beginning of our 'new normal' &, here is yet another company's reaction to obamacare...http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/11/16/medical-supply-giant-stryker-corp-makes-pre-emptive-strike-against-pending/
while obama & company were so quick to tell you that obamacare is the greatest thing since sunshine, many of you just accepted it &, you rejected the repubs arguments against it. regardless of which side you're on, the director of the CBO (douglas elmendorf) testified before congress (2011) & said that obamacare would cause 800,000 not to be working---some because of loss of jobs & others for walking away from working & getting obamacare. i'm here to tell you that 800,000 number will be a lot higher before all is said & done.
company's electing to 'stay the course' may continue to offer you healthcare & uncut hours in 2013 but, come 2014, you're going to be on your own...we still have a ton of regulations that have been issued but not yet evaluated so, their impact on business's & jobs is unknown. besides, who in the hell has the time to sort through all of them?
because i'm such a nice guy, i'm going to put the gov'ts own regulations posting website here...http://www.regulations.gov/#%21home;tab=search what should have caught your eye was the 'last 90 days' where 6,051 regulations were issued &, the 'next 90 days' where 947 new regulations will be issued. as a business owner, you have to balance profit against acceptable losses &, when the gov't starts taking more, you have to react to keep your books balanced. unfortunately, that requires cut hours, layoffs, raising prices or, closing your doors for good.
by the way, how many of those regulations did you actually read?

YOU WANTED IT, YOU GOT IT, NOW TRY LIVING WITH IT!!!
hello america!!! it's amazing that what obama & company told you about obamacare is exactly the opposite of reality but, hey, who am i to say i told you so. when the repubs said obamacare would stifle job growth, you laughed. when they told you, you wouldn't be able to keep your same coverage, you laughed. well good people, it's no longer a laughing matter because people are getting their full time hours cut to 30 hours or less per week &, are losing their healthcare coverage. less hours worked=less revenue the gov't can collect. those people that lose their present company healthcare coverage will be required to obtain their own gov't approved coverage or try to qualify for obamacare.
now, you might argue that company's are greedy however, when you point that finger, look in the mirror. one starts a company to make money. PERIOD! what's so wrong with that? most of you have jobs to either stay afloat or to get ahead. when the costs of goods, services & gasoline go up, the gov't continues to take their share from you; all of your bills still have to be paid & hey, two options you don't have are: layoff some of your family or print more money. you have to cut back. just imagine things as they now are & the gov't comes out with this 'milage tax' that they've been talking about. you're either going to pay the difference or drive less, whereas, companies have the ability to raise their prices or cut employees hours to pay the difference.
you wanted obamacare & now, we will have to suffer through it together. yes, there are some good things in it however, it's not doing what it was designed to do. healthcare costs have steadily been going up. company's are very reluctant to hire more people because nobody (&, i mean nobody) knows what the full effects of obamacare will have on them. they do know they'll have to pay more money & for them, it's easier & cheaper to cut your hours & just drop your coverage...
&, just so you'll know that there are others that think as i do, please read this...http://www.gopusa.com/commentary/2012/11/16/malkin-hows-that-obamacare-waiver-workin-out-for-ya/?subscriber=1

CORRECTION!!!
hello america!!! this morning i stated that 627 hostess twinkie workers would be out of work...this is the correction to that number: the new number is 18,500 people because hostess has closed its doors....
AMERICA, STRAIGHT TALK!!!
hello america!!! here's your jobs situation...http://www.dailyjobcuts.com/ &, as usual, there is no good news here, in fact, it seems november took a heavy toll on jobs. if you'll scroll down to nov 1st, you know exactly what i am talking about. between the layoffs, bankruptcies &, closings, good paying jobs are hard to come by or keep.
you may be okay at the moment but, tomorrow is another thing...look at this...http://www.dailynews.com/business/ci_21969400/bankrupt-bakers-footwear-liquidating-21-los-angeles-area?source=most_viewed while no specific number of layoffs has been mentioned, when you close 150 stores, you have a minimum of 2/3 employees per store.
the above is a great example of failed economic policies. yeah, i know, i'm still hating...well, read the following & then tell me it's hate.....
let's just concentrate on bakers footwear & assume they have just 2 employees per store---that's 300 people out of work; that's also 300 people the gov't can no longer collect revenue from; that's 300 people that won't be financially contributing to their communities as much because they'll start spending less; their community goods & services will not be able to collect TAXES as much as before meaning, out fed gov't gets even less revenue; those business's will have to cut back on employee hours to offset the loss.
well just multiply that by, say, http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-505123_162-57548662/hostess-brands-shuts-down-three-bakeries-after-strike/ where 627 people will soon be out of jobs.
here's one more...http://www.foxbusiness.com/news/2012/11/15/procter-gamble-plans-more-job-cuts-boosts-buyback-program-50/ they're talking about 5,900 people losing their jobs by june 30th &, i'm certain, you have something from procter-gamble in your home.
what part of 'we are not going forward' do you not understand? i'm not hating---just posting facts. if obamas plans had worked, we would not be where we are now. by the way, 439,000 new jobless claims were filed last week &, even though the gov't wants to blame it on superstorm sandy, the numbers don't add to support their claim. ny had 2,241 claims, nj had 5,675 &, connecticut had 1,783.......so, the increase was not due to the storm.
while i am extremely happy that america re-elected a black man to run the country, i just wish it were a black man that had some sense of business because, we desperately need jobs---not more rhetoric...

SO YOU WANT OBAMACARE, HUH???
hello america!!! you wanted obamacare---well, by re-electing obama, you've gotten your wish. the only question you never stopped & asked was: what's it going to cost me? my good people, you're about to find out in a very rude way.
some company's are just not going to offer you obamacare or any other type of healthcare & they get around it by cutting your work hours &/or raising their prices...either way, it directly effects your pocket (& time, for those that depend on the fast-food places for a quick dinner for yourself or family after work). it will have an effect on all business & the extra cost is going to be passed right on down the line---some company's are already jockeying to be in a position not to have full-time employees & many are already on record for raising the costs of their goods & services---good luck in getting those one percenter's to pay your way.
denny's is the latest to join the group of those finding ways around the law...http://www.gopusa.com/theloft/2012/11/15/dennys-joins-growing-list-of-restaurants-considering-obamacare-charge/?subscriber=1
this is just in the restaurant business---look at all the other business's that will do the same. yeah, i know---let's boycott them. great thinking!!! while you're out their on the line, people will be earning less so, they'll be taking home less & yet, they'll still have to pay more for whatever they buy...
&, if you think that sears, kmart & walmart (& those like them) are going to have to pay more & you won't, you just might want to join the land of the living...it just ain't gonna happen like that....
just think, if obama gets his wish to increase the taxes on those making $200,000 a year or more, you're going to get hit even harder.
well, since i don't know too much, i know this; if those company's with unionized workers have to pay the fed gov't more, do you honestly think they won't charge you the difference? i can't wait to see how this will play out with all the yellow cabs in NYC....
&, one more thing or two: obamacare is supposed to be so affordable & yet, the vast majority of waivers went to company's representing unionized labor because it will create a hardship for them. what in the hell do you think it's going to do for those company's with regular every day workers?
for those that supported obama, i don't wish this on you but, if it were to happen: i would love to see your face when they cut your hours from 40 per week to 30 per week (so as not to get a penalty tax) & you have to go out there & either sign up for obamacare or purchase your own gov't approved healthcare insurance.

this is just in the restaurant business---look at all the other business's that will do the same. yeah, i know---let's boycott them. great thinking!!! while you're out their on the line, people will be earning less so, they'll be taking home less & yet, they'll still have to pay more for whatever they buy...
&, if you think that sears, kmart & walmart (& those like them) are going to have to pay more & you won't, you just might want to join the land of the living...it just ain't gonna happen like that....
just think, if obama gets his wish to increase the taxes on those making $200,000 a year or more, you're going to get hit even harder.
well, since i don't know too much, i know this; if those company's with unionized workers have to pay the fed gov't more, do you honestly think they won't charge you the difference? i can't wait to see how this will play out with all the yellow cabs in NYC....
&, one more thing or two: obamacare is supposed to be so affordable & yet, the vast majority of waivers went to company's representing unionized labor because it will create a hardship for them. what in the hell do you think it's going to do for those company's with regular every day workers?
for those that supported obama, i don't wish this on you but, if it were to happen: i would love to see your face when they cut your hours from 40 per week to 30 per week (so as not to get a penalty tax) & you have to go out there & either sign up for obamacare or purchase your own gov't approved healthcare insurance.
& THEN, IT COMES BACK TO BITE YOU!!!
hello america!!! for those that voted for obama, his handling of world events must never have been a consideration &, the reason i say this is: do you remember when egypt was in turmoil & obama wanted president hosnu mubarak out? the muslim brotherhood visited the whitehouse to assure obama & company that they would not be running for president, then they turned around & the leader of the brotherhood won (president mohamed mursi) the election. well, obama got his wish & we are not better off because of it.
then we have this...http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/11/16/us-palestinians-israel-hamas-idUSBRE8AD0WP20121116 with all that has negatively happened in the middle east since the 'arab spring' (which obama also supported) is it any wonder that our enemy would support anybody that's against israel? this cannot be good news for obama & company &, if egypt actively helps the hamas militants, we could be facing another 'middle east war' that we would be compelled to get involved in.
obama may have to prove how much he has israel's back sooner then he thought...also, this is just another example of obamas seriously flawed middle east policy................

JOBLESS CLAIMS UP!!!
hello america!!! the new jobless claims rose to 439,000 & they say, it was unexpected while others blame superstorm sandy. well, you are being 'pissed' on & the fed gov't is calling it rain. i've been saying there is some funny business going on with our labor department & the way they've been reporting the numbers &, it all began when, just 2 months ago, they dropped our national unemployment rate from 8.1% to 7.8% & based it on weak hiring & 800,000 plus people walking away from the workforce. then, just before the election, it rose to 7.9%, also based on weak hiring. based on the numbers, that 8.1% should have been raised however, that would not have helped obama.
congress needs to investigate what is going on with the reporting of the jobs numbers because there is just too much doubt as to their accuracy. i've been following the loss of jobs as best i can &, for whatever reason, 2+2 is not equaling 4....
this is the time of year when hiring for thanksgiving, black friday &, christmas take place &, one would think that the jobless claims would be lowering.

JUST MORE OBAMA CRAP!!!
hello america!!! here's your daily jobs situation...http://www.dailyjobcuts.com/ this is (& has been) a gigantic problem for obama &, he should be devoting as much time to it as is possible instead of just paying lip service to it. obama should be asking the senate to address those 30-odd, house passed, jobs related bills that have been sitting there for quite some time...
good people, with all the scandals that have previously rocked the obama admin, why was this latest one kept from you...http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2012/nov/13/obama-john-allen-petraeus-scandal

A COVER UP TO COVER UP ANOTHER COVER UP!!!
hello america!!! the below picture says it all. obama has warned the repubs to 'lay off' her. WHY? obama allowed her to be paraded in front of multiple cameras on multiple days to give the obama-spin to what happened in benghazi & now, he wants to shield her. more importantly, the american people need to know who told her to say what she said because numerous accounts have been forwarded to the public: starting with, the state department watching what went down in real time & then blaming it on a video....

obama & the dems, when the repubs first started making waves about the attacks in libya, called the congressional hearings 'political' & a 'fishing expedition'---just goes to show that with enough fortitude, you can actually catch that 'whopper'.

MY FIRST SINCE THE ELECTION!!!
hello america!!! it's been hard to come to grips with having obama for another 4 years. what bothers me most about it is: the groups of people he has supported the least gave him the most support...ie; black america (unemployment for blacks is at 14.3%,); hispanic america (unemployment for latino's is at 10%); &, teenage america (unemployment for teenagers is at 23.7%). just so you'll know, the national unemployment rate is 7.9%.
well, you reap what you sow &, if you noticed, obama isn't taking jobs---he's too bust talking about raising the taxes on those making $200,00/$250,000 or better. just for once, i wish congress would grant obama his wish & raise those taxes. i really would like to see how those 3 above listed groups deal with the fallout because they never did their own math to see exactly how much it would exasperate their own situations. raising those taxes will cause more harm then good. look, honest math never lies:::just take $200,000 & divide it by 52 weeks &, anyone or any business making $3,846 a week is affected. for those in allentown pa, this includes our nightclubs, woody's, skate-away, bowling, corner stores, etc...when you raise their taxes, they're going to raise the costs of their goods & services. some of your nail & hair salons are going to raise their rates...don't stop there, what about those legitimate daycare centers? you think their going to swallow new tax rates or are they going to charge you more? hell, every time gas goes up, we not only pay the difference at the pumps but, we also get to pay the difference when we buy our goods & services.
big mistake america...&, if you care to remember obama very recently said he 'won't sign any bill to avoid the 'fiscal cliff' that doesn't include those tax raises'.
&, something else obama isn't talking about is: our social security disability system is estimated to be broke by 2017. basically, that's 4 years from now. however, because of the lack of jobs, many, many more people are taking advantage of this system meaning it will run out of money even sooner.
then there's social security. they predict it will become insolvent in 2037...hell, they just released a report that says those that are working now are paying for those that are already in the system.
then we have the other public entitlements such as welfare (financially, medically &, food stamps), housing & daycare assistance to think about & how we're going to continue to help those that actually need it.
i'm sure your belief in obama will be justified...all you have to do is read the plan he has never submitted for fixing the above problems & yet, he's the very first one to castigate anybody that has submitted a plan. the bottom line is, we need jobs & obama is not a job maker.

OBAMA, SAY IT AIN'T TRUE!!!
hello america!!! i've found 3 articles that i really find bothersome & hope that obama & company will (just for once) be honest with us & tell us the truth & not the 'spin'...however, it's an election year &, if it's going to 'play' negative towards obama, we'll have to rely on those in the media that are not pro-obama-biased to provide us with the 'news'...
obama, if this is true (&, i honestly believe it is), you should be fired on the spot! i can only imagine that the requests were turned down so as not to make it a bigger issue then it was because obama has told us bin laden is dead & al qaeda is on the run...http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/10/26/cia-operators-were-denied-request-for-help-during-benghazi-attack-sources-say/
from that to this: you know, that issue obama has all of those plans for & has yet to produce even one of them & yet, everybody's elses plans are no good...what obama won't tell you is that when these people do start collecting, they very seldom will return to the workforce & hey, since he doesn't have a plan to fix any of the problems, how are we going to continue to pay these people & at what cost? i am a realist & 2018 is right around the corner. when the money dries up, we will have to borrow more money against our future &, the sad part of all of this is, less people working=less revenue being collected. obama has had 4 years to address this issue & here we are...http://www.foxbusiness.com/economy/2012/10/26/record-us-disability-payouts/?test=latestnews
with all of the past problems obama has had with our money, this does not surprise me. for somebody to blame it on china is wrong. if you're getting a defective product from china, don't you cancel your orders?
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/10/26/taxpayer-backed-solar-firm-under-fire-after-bankruptcy-questions-over-defective/
i'll sum it up to say, the media gives obama a pass for his failures exactly like they do when joe biden has his gaffe moments saying, it's just joe...like that should make it all better.

JOB LOSSES EVERYWHERE!!!
hello america!!! here's your daily jobs situation...http://www.dailyjobcuts.com/ according to obama, he has a plan to put america back to work if he's re-elected...you know, use the money from the savings when the wars totally end to restart infrastructure jobs & hire more teachers. what a novel idea! you should vote 3 times for this man that is calling you stupid if you believe that. good people, we 'borrow' the money to pay for the wars & when the wars stop, the borrowing stops. on the other hand, obama may be saying he's going to do another 'stimulus' & that seems more like it because he said he wants to 'help out other manufacturing business's'.
obamas been in office for 4 years & his stimulus did not work. his plans for another 4 years are more of the same. he has no new ideas to bring to the table & castigates anybody that does bring forth a plan. hell, he won't even listen to his own self-appointed jobs council &, he blew off the debt commission.
our economy cannot afford 4 more years of the same &, obama said, 'you can't fix washington from the inside' &, if he had of done the work that we actually needed during his 1st 2 years, the dems would still be in power & this election would have already been over. in truth, obama has failed us & he knows it.
washington is broke & we need somebody in there that can fix it &, obama is not the one.....

washington is broke & we need somebody in there that can fix it &, obama is not the one.....
NOW, WHAT THAT ABOUT BS???
hello america!!! obama is quick to use the word 'truth' but, is extremely hesitant to practice what he preaches. honesty is not in obamas DNA. he's rather tell a lie then the truth...&, if you follow me, i'll show you the pure, un-spun truth...
this is was 2 days ago...http://www.desmoinesregister.com/article/20121024/NEWS09/121024003/After-editor-s-blog-President-Obama-releases-transcript-Register-interview
number 1...the auto bailout was not as successful as obama would have you believe. they should have been allowed to file for bankruptcy just as the ford motor company did. so, they took our money & this is where we stand...http://www.forbes.com/sites/joannmuller/2012/08/29/automakers-report-card-who-still-owes-taxpayers-money-the-answer-might-surprise-you/2/ another thing obama doesn't tell you is gm is still making risky, sub-prime loans to sell its cars & for the obama-hype about the chevy volt, it's a 'dud'. by the way, it also comes with a warning that using anything but premium gasoline may hurt the engine. &, why has it taken 4 years for obama to now want to try & bring business's back to our shores?
number 2...hiring more teachers is not the answer. the communities & school environments have to be cleaned up---drugs, sex, gangs & violence have breached the walls of all of our schools. teacher tenure has to go & only the best teachers need to be retained or hired. if the students flunk, the teacher flunks....costs of higher education is ever increasing regardless of what obama says &, they will continue to do. college is a business for those that run them.
number 3...obama has had 4 years to allow his actions to speak for themselves. he does not support a 'all of the above' approach to our energy needs. he's invested too much of our money in 'failed' energy company's & to continue to do more of the same borders on stupidity. we are producing more however, that's on private lands, not the lands & waters obama has control of.
number 4...when obama talks about cutting the deficit, you have to laugh because he's done everything but that. he likes spending money he doesn't have to account for. he had a 'debt commission' & he blew their suggestions off. he can't even get his own party to agree with him when it comes to a budget. when he talks about 'tax fairness' he just wants those making $200,000 or more to pay a higher tax rate which will not even dent our deficit. on the same hand, he doesn't even mention that we have professional sports leagues that pay no federal taxes...i.e; the NFL, which made $9 billion last year is tax exempt, as are others. another thing is, obama is always talking about closing 'loopholes' & yet, he continues to create them. i.e; the $7,500 tax credit for the chevy volt, etc...
good people, do not be fooled. when the wars are ended, there will be no pile of money to use for infrastructure fixing or building---this is a blatant lie. we are borrowing the money for the wars & when they end, the borrowing ends. obama knows this but, it sounds so good to say it. just like what he says about creating jobs & our economic growth...obama only counts jobs growth from the last 30 months claiming he's created 5 million plus however, what he doesn't tell you is, he's been in office for 45 months & we lost 4 million jobs over that time-span which means, in 4 longs years, he's really only created 175,000-300,000 jobs. & yes, our economy suffers because of it.
&, just so you know, obama blames the repubs for the failure of his 'Dream Act' to pass through the senate. he lies about this because the bill needed 60 yes votes; recieved only 55; &, 5 dems voted against it. if you listen to obama, your math skills are probably like his<><>55+5=60 but, we won't say anything about those 5 dem 'no' votes & blame it on the repubs....

THROW HIM OUT!!!
hello america!!! obama recently said he has a plan to put americans back to work if he's re-elected however, i would not get my hopes up because it's the same plan he unleashed on us during the past 4 years...&, it didn't work then & it won't work for our future....
obama is all over the country saying he's created 5 million plus jobs over the past 30 months & yet, he's been in office for 45 months...&, the media doesn't challenge him on his numbers however, i will & do. obamas jobs numbers began when he was first sworn in &, in the 45 months he's been in office, 4 million plus jobs have been lost which gives obama a net gain of only 175,000-350,000 new jobs created......those are the facts &, i don't care who spins them. the jobs number for his 4 years is pathetic...
speaking of jobs...http://my.news.yahoo.com/us-weekly-jobless-claims-head-130620830.html
we continue to lose 350,000 plus jobs a week with no slow-down in sight. last weeks jobless claims was upgraded from 388,000 to 392,000 new jobless claims. good people, wake the hell up. we're losing one million plus jobs a month & there's nothing in obamas plan to even slow those numbers down.
he's had 4 years & this is as far as we've gotten. in 2008, he didn't tell you he would need 2 terms to get our country right. in 2008, he didn't tell you he would fix our jobs problems after his 1st 4 years were over. in 2008, he didn't tell you he would decide what to take credit for & what to ignore in his 1st 15 months.
if you look at this video, you'll see why obama should not be re-elected...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEuDqBFuFK4
just so you'll know, the Dream Act needed 60 senate votes---it received only 55 yes votes because 5 dems voted against it............

obama painted gov romney as the one that wanted to cut various benefits & the problem with that is, we have a lot of people that believe it. they don't do their own homework & whatever they hear see on tv or are told by others, they believe.
speaking of which, i know a 41 year old female that admits that obama has done nothing for us for the past 4 years & yet, she's going to vote for him anyway---go figure. she honestly doesn't have a single clue as to what's happening to our country &, if obama is re-elected, she'll find out much too late...some people are destined to remain ignorant.

NO EXCUSES!!!
hello america!!! here's your daily jobs situation...http://www.dailyjobcuts.com/ in the face of the continued onslaught on jobs losses, is it any wonder that obama can't make a compelling argument for 4 more years? jobs drive our economy &, when we couple more expenditures with less revenue, we need a change of plans. we need somebody that can get our jobs market out of the gutter &, another 4 years under obama won't do it.
one would think that, since these past 4 years have achieved so very little, obama would try to offer us a different approach to 'save' us. that would be incorrect thinking because all obama wants to do is, 4 more years of the same. how many times can you go to the same junk-yard, sit in the same engineless less car &, expect it to start?
now you can call me whatever you wish however, when you're done with the name-calling, reality will still be there to smack you in the face. what & who is better in american society now compared to 4 years ago? with grocery, gasoline healthcare & services prices steadily rising, combined with the loss of jobs & continued fed gov't spending, we are nowhere near where we should be &, another 4 years of the same will not advance our growth or hopes......

OBAMA, SAY IT AIN'T SO!!!
hello america!!! i guess that if you're in the habit of lying, you just can't help yourself. obama says one thing & then someone comes along & proves him wrong as is in this example... http://cnsnews.com/news/article/obama-we-got-back-every-dime-bailout-cbo-bailout-will-lose-24-billion
&, the money from the auto bailouts & green technology company's isn't even mentioned. so much for honesty from the one person that should be going out of his way to tell the american people the absolute truth, no matter what. but, we're talking about obama here. speaking of which, he told us that al qaeda was on the run but, here is an up-to-date report on that...http://news.yahoo.com/al-qaida-afghanistan-attempting-comeback-144002075.html
this is not something he wants the world country to see &, he doesn't have the manliness to admit that while we may have weakened our enemy, they are far from being finished &, i have no doubt that between here & our departing afghanistan in 2014, we're going to be hearing & seeing a lot more from them...

FOREIGN POLICY!!!
hello america!!! foreign policy? what do i know about it? i form my opinions about it just like the vast majority of the rest of our country. i don't get 'insider' briefings however, i know what i know &, when you once smell a foul odor, you'll always know that smell.
before i begin, on 9/12/2012, obama did address the benghazi incident in the rose garden &, he did use the term, 'acts of terror' but at no time during his speech did he ever put 'benghazi' & 'acts of terror' in the same sentence. one could say he implied that the attack was an 'act of terror' but obama never came out & said it. he was so careful not to 'piss off' others & protect his middle east policy that, he did not actually say, 'the attack on benghazi was an act of terror' on the day after the attack. i defy you to prove me wrong. furthermore, 'acts of terror' is plural & the attack on benghazi is a singular event.
candy crowly was wrong---&, i don't give a damn what cnn says about her; she blew it & she knows it. &, if you'd do your own homework, you'd know it to.
but, let me continue...yeah, foreign policy for the past 4 years..........cuba is still cuba & may allow russia to build a naval base there; iraq & afghanistan have become lost causes &, the violence has escalated so, our efforts to create a regime change & a democracy has become a waste of american lives, time &, money; the reset with russia is not working: they have built up their armed forces & have thwarted us every step of the way with iran & syria; china is still china & has teamed up with russia trade-wise & militarily & they have thwarted us every step of the way with north korea...&, both are still known for 'HUMAN RIGHTS' violations; israel seems to have been thrown under the bus as was canada; haiti is still in dire need of all that help obama promised them; africa is still africa & i don't see where we've done one single thing to stop the warring, famines or massive abuses except talk about them; we've promised brazil billions of dollars for their oil; france & england don't seem as close to us as they once were; mexico & columbia still have their gangs & drugs that find their way inside our borders &, we still have not sealed our mexican border problems; &, we actively supported the 'arab spring' & it has come back to bite us---obama even had the muslim brotherhood in the whitehouse & they left saying they would not seek office & yet, egypt is now ruled by them---pakistan is not our friend &, saudi arabia still violates the human rights of its people; we seem to have more imports then exports; what happened in benghazi was because we relaxed our standards in lieu of making obama look good when he says,'bin laden is dead & al quaeda is on the run'; europe is so fragile that they could fall apart any minute & if they fall, we fall........so, exactly what has our state department & foreign
done over the last 4 years? they can't say they've made us safer if we lost a border agent & the 4 americans that needlessly lost their lives 9/11/2012..............

WHAT ABOUT THE 1ST 15 MONTHS???
hello america!!! here's your daily jobs situation...http://www.dailyjobcuts.com/ as i've previously written, the layoffs, closings &, bankruptcy filings seem endless.
speaking of jobs, 388,000 new jobless claims for unemployment benefits were reported today, an increase of 46,000 people. how does obama spin that? is this but another 'bump in the road'? another way of looking at the numbers is: we're losing 1 million plus jobs a month & yet, obama says we're heading in the right direction........how can he even think that when, job loss leads to home & car losses, bills not being paid on time &, stores, services & our gov't (on all levels) depend on them working. but, hey, what is one to expect from obama when he doesn't even include his 1st 15 months of office in the jobs numbers issue?
yes, i'm back at it! gov romney should hang him out to dry because, when obama talks about creating 5 million plus jobs over the past 30 months, the gov should ask him 'was he sworn in 30 months ago or, was he sworn in 45 months ago'? the media just won't touch this & the sad part of this whole thing is, they know. he's been getting a free pass & that's not the same standard they hold pres bush to. if obama is allowed to omit his 1st 15 months in office then pres bush should be allowed to omit his last 15 months in office &, you guys don't want to even hear that.
look, even i know why obama doesn't start counting his 1st 15 month but, he willingly volunteered himself for the job. he won & his counting has to start from day one....with that said, obama can 'tout' 5 plus millions jobs created over 45 months &, he has to include that 4 plus million jobs were lost in that same period...giving him a dismal net gain of 175,000-300,000 jobs created over a 4 year time span & america, that is not good & that's why he short-changes you with the numbers.
since obama brought up that ceo analogy, ask yourself this: could any ceo tell his board of directors that he made them 1 million dollars in his last 6 months & not bother including that they lost $800,000 in his 1st 6 months?

YOU SHOULD DO YOUR OWN HOMEWORK!!!
hello america!!! just watched the debate & will post my comments on it soon. however, this comes from today's news...http://money.cnn.com/2012/10/16/retirement/social-security-benefits-seniors/index.html?iid=HP_LN
don't you just have love the fact that you may have to live off of your social security, if it's still there & you weren't able to save that 'eggs nest'?
then we have this---another obama lie...http://cnsnews.com/news/article/obama-we-got-back-every-dime-bailout-cbo-bailout-will-lose-24-billion
& guess what, the numbers don't account for what we have lost with the auto bailouts or, for our 'green technology' investments when the companies went bankrupt or sent the money overseas....

WHAT'S ANOTHER $249.1 MILLION LOSS??? IT'S JUST A BUMP IN THE ROAD!!!
hello america!!! here's your daily jobs situation...http://www.dailyjobcuts.com/ when you click on this link, just look at all the companies that are closing (for whatever reason). &, the layoffs just continue...
well, if we didn't have enough bad news about our 'green technology' investments, the hits keep coming.........
http://www.delawareonline.com/article/20121016/BUSINESS09/310160063/Fisker-s-battery-maker-files-bankruptcy?
how many more of these companies have we poured money into that are not stable? how much more money are we going to continue to lose because of bad investments? or, is this just another 'BUMP IN THE ROAD'?
obama invested our money in these companies without even asking us. he just did it &, the really bad thing is: he's promising 4 more years of similar investments. what's worse is: he was warned about some of the companies & went on & invested in them anyway...
good people, we don't need to hear the spin about these failures; we need a leader that will stand up & admit their mistakes & take responsibility for them. unfortunately, obama is not that person.........

WHERE NOT A DUMB PEOPLE!!!
hello america!!! it sickens me that obama & company can lie to us; try to cover up their ineptness; blame the romney/ryan ticket for politicizing the benghazi incident; continue to deny knowledge of prior security requests; denythey had 'real time' knowledge; & now, allow 'plans' for retribution to be leaked...
see here...http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/10/15/white-house-wrestles-with-how-where-to-strike-back-if-libya-consulate-attackers/
are we that stupid that we don't know the leak is deliberate? it's supposed to convey the message that obama is strong against our enemies. if he were as strong as he wants us to think, we'd have had more security of our embassy people in the 1st place.

OBAMA'S NOT A LEADER!!!
hello america!!! i watched the house hearing & listened very intently to the questions & answers; i watched cbs's 'face the nation' & again, i listened very intently to the questions & answers. i've been following this issue ever since the 'arab spring'. i've been listening to obama tell us how 'great' everything was going on in the middle east & i was filled with skepticism then. we supported 'regime changes' without fully knowing who was going to be the 'new' leaders &, when the muslim brotherhood was allowed in the whitehouse & sold us a 'false bill of goods' about running for office, i knew then that we in a 'catch 22'.
now that the facts are coming out, obama is trying to deflect the blame. how can he &, why do you let him? he ran to lead us &, every time something comes up with any negativity to it, he runs the other way. look, he's supposed to be the head of our fed gov't & all of those below him are supposed to report to him & carry out his orders. what happened in libya (while unfortunate & was avoidable) is just another extremely strong statement that we really are 'leaderless'.
the tsa, the justice department, the atf, the state department, the secret service, the intelligence departments &, the department of homeland security all seem to be 'detached' from obama & are running themselves. everyone of them has had revealing scandals that obama has denied knowledge of & then, he blames others for his incompetence.
it's his job, & his alone, to know what is going on with our fed agencies &, more importantly, it's his job to control them &, if they don't follow his lead or directives, he's supposed to fire them. be honest with yourselves & look at it this way: if obama was the ceo of your company & his managers acted on their own without his input &, their actions were negative for the company & he didn't fire them, then you would fire him. how could any ceo report to the stock holders the he doesn't know what his managers are doing?
obama had to know that there had been 230 separate middle east incidents from july 2011-july 2012 & yet, he kept saying how well everything was going over there when in reality, it was just the opposite however, for him to say everything over there wasn't going well would fly in the face of his foreign policy for that region.
obama watched the death of bin laden in real time & yet, he wants you to believe that he only reacted to what the intelligence people told him...what a crock & more so when you know that the state department watched what happened in benghazi in real time.
obama can't just blame the state department or the intelligence agency for what he did or didn't know---HE SHOULD HAVE KNOWN &, IF HE WAS TRULY BEING HONEST, HE SHOULD HAVE ALREADY FIRED SOMEBODY...
we deserve true leadership....

OBAMA, LET ME HEAR YOU!!!
hello america!!! any bets that obama won't touch this? http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/10/13/los-angeles-mayor-wants-id-card-for-immigrants/?test=latestnews
obama sued states that wanted to require OUR VERY OWN CITIZENS to obtain some form of gov't id &, he didn't care whether it was for voting or other reasons. &, the number one complaint was, it would create a hardship on them either financially or travel-wise. the other reason was, it was a form of discrimination & the efforts were directed at blacks & latino's.
i am 100% for everybody within our borders to have some form of gov't id however, i don't think that los angeles should restrict it to 'immigrants only'.
as i have blogged before, those without valid id are hurting &, when obama, ag, william holder & rights groups oppose 'mandatory id' laws, they are exacerbating the plight of those people.
again, what can you do in america without valid id???

ANOTHER FAILURE!!!
hello america!!! although the ny times isn't regarded as it once was, i found this article & think it is a reflection of obamas failed middle east policy...http://www.nytimes.com/2012/10/14/world/africa/libyan-government-struggles-to-rein-in-powerful-militias.html?pagewanted=1&_r=0&hp
obama actively helped rid libya of muammar qaddafi & since then, the country has been very unstable. our state department & cia knew of the increased dangers & therefore, the whitehouse had to know. read this here...http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/10/09/hundreds-ecurity-incidents-in-libya-before-attack/
i watched c-span's complete coverage of the hearing on the consulate attacks & i'm at a loss why our embassy security was not 'beefed up'---there can be no excuse because at the end of the 230 incidents between july 2011-july 2012, there is a clear warning that what happened would happen...on page 51, 2nd paragraph from the last 1, there can be no mistake that the security assessment knew that the dangers were 'HIGH' &, here is the list...http://www.scribd.com/doc/109597677/Security-Incidents-in-Libya-from-June-2011
more importantly, how can obama tout the state department as doing a good job & then 4 americans are needlessly killed. if obama had of been doing his job, those deaths could possibly have been prevented. instead, he's talking about how good the 'arab spring' was & is.
obama did not do his job & there's no other way to look at it!!!

obama did not do his job & there's no other way to look at it!!!
SO LET'S TALK ABOUT SOMETHING ELSE!!!
hello america!!! here's your daily jobs situation...http://www.dailyjobcuts.com/ obama doesn't really want to talk about jobs or lack thereof however, i don't think he wants to spend the rest of the time having to defend his 'middle east' policy. as far as the 4 american deaths & what all occurred in libya, suffice it to say, if he didn't know, he should have known &, for him not getting the fed agencies involved together, demanding answers &, firing somebody, then he's either lying, covering or, very inept. you voted him into office to 'lead' this country. if the fed agencies are making decisions that effect our security without his approval or guidance, then he shouldn't be there. PERIOD! for all the lies that came out from the whitehouse regarding benghazi coupled with all the fed agencies scandals---(&, if that's not bad enough, biden says he & obama never knew that more security was requested)---both of them just won't accept responsibility for anything negative &, they are extraordinarily quick to assign blame.
good people, we need 'leadership' that will stand up & tell us the truth & acknowledge their mistakes. in 4 years, we have yet to have either obama or biden apologize for any of their errors. however, they'll apologize to our enemies for our way of living...
WE DESERVE BETTER....

OBAMA, WHAT DID YOU SAY ABOUT OBAMACARE???
hello america!!! you were warned on several different fronts to include myself that this was coming...please see here...http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/10/12/as-some-businesses-look-for-ways-around-obamacare-others-attack-law-directly/
a lot of business's are already on record that they will not offer healthcare to their employees & a lot more are going to find other ways around having to do so.
1.....you will not be allowed to keep your present doctors if your company drops the coverage. they will pay the fine unless they find a way around it & yes, they will find a way.
2.....you will be forced to provide for your own healthcare or, you'll be paying a fine.
3.....the costs of healthcare are going up contrary to what obama promises you &, you will soon find out, it is anything but affordable.
4.....for some business's, it will be cheaper for them to drop the coverage & pay the tax/fine rather then provide you with coverage.
5.....if you're stuck obtaining your own coverage, it must meet obamacare standards & if it doesn't, you'll still be paying a tax/fine.
while business's may be able to cut your hours to try to get around providing you coverage, it will be your responsibility to obtain your own (by law) or enroll in obamacare & yes, this will be based on your earnings. imagine a company dropping your coverage, cutting your hours & your being 'taxed' for not getting your own coverage? you didn't want to believe it when the repubs told you what this would do to you however, you just might want to wake the hell up.
look, the bottom line is this: the idiots that drew up the plans for obamacare did not have your best interests at heart. then speaker of the house, nancy pelosi, even told you they have to pass the bill to see what's in it & she was not joking. nobody knows exactly what all is in obamacare but, you didn't care. you jumped for joy.
there are taxes/fines in it that will effect the middle class...look, this is just one of them; the tanning tax. another one is; the 2.3% tax on all medical devices costing over $100. if you think those people that make those leg braces for your little johnny or patty are going to eat those costs, you're crazy. they will be passed on to you.
if you think obamacare is all that, just look at reality. we've already been suffering from having to wait for a doctors appointment weeks/months at a time &, when you swell the number of people needing those same services, you swell the waiting time. & then, if you need certain tests, you're scheduled down the road. we already go to doctors & before we're even comfortable in the chair, they're gone & a nurse comes in with your prescription & doctors instructions. waiting for appointments is one of the biggest reasons emergency centers are always packed during the cold seasons......
look, i've read obamacare from page to page 3 times & i still end up getting lost in it. i know that 15 people will be appointed to 'keep costs down' & that may be the difference between the healthcare you should have actually gotten compared to what you received. the elderly with suffer the most & we all know it.
those that wrote the bill never took into consideration just how many business's won't opt in for it &, nor will many states which leaves you scrambling to provide you own coverage. in these dire times, the middle class & those living below that level are going to pay through the nose.
while i agree with some of obamacare, there is a lot more of it i don't..........

WE NEED LEADERS, NOT MORE LIES!!!
hello america!!! here's your daily jobs situation...http://www.dailyjobcuts.com/
i have to be honest with you & say that i do not believe anything coming from the whitehouse. with all the scandals in the fed gov't, obama & biden are so quick to tell you that they didn't know anything about whatever hits the press. obama has a history of saying one thing, then another & then another to distance himself from the negativity &, he's known for throwing 'his people' under the bus.
he had no knowledge of the justice department & the atf's 'gun walking' program & yet, when all was said & done, he used 'executive privilege' to keep documents from being submitted to congress. he didn't know anything about the secret service scandals; the homeland security scandals; the tsa scandals; & now, he doesn't know anything about the benghazi scandal on which he was so quick to say a video was the main cause of the 4 american deaths. LIE AFTER LIE AFTER LIE!!!
if you remember obama & company watching the death of bin laden in 'real time' you have to know that he or someone just under him saw what happened in benghazi in 'real time' just as our state department is on record for saying they did. there's a 50 minute video that shows there were no demonstrations leading up to the deaths of our 4 americans &, the senate committee investigating this issue wants that video.
if we know that ambassador stephens said goodnight to a turkish diplomat at 8:30pm & the streets were clear. if we know that the next thing was an explosion at the gates or walls of the compound at 9:40pm, where does the whitehouse get this 'demonstration' crap? besides, the state department was watching everything from this point on plus, they were on the phone with the people on the ground there.
if the state department was watching the events in 'real time' what in the hell was the intelligence department watching that would make them give the wrong information to obama? one would think that obama would have gotten together with the state & intelligence department heads, watched the video & listened to the phone tapes before opening his mouth &, when he did open it, he should have told us the truth. not the lie he told us for weeks.
he even paraded out hilary clinton & others to perpetrate his lying to us because it's too close to the election & it would look better for him if the deaths & uprisings were linked to a video then a terrorist act. obama & company gave this matter some deep thought & you are now seeing what his lies have caused.
at the vp debate, biden knew that money had been cut from the budget for embassy security & yet, when charlene lamb, deputy assistant secretary, was asked specifically if budget concerns were the reasons for denials for added security, she said "no sir".
the middle east is still a hotbed & will always remain so &, our middle east policy has come back to bite us. the 'arab spring' is not a done thing yet....we are going to lose more people there because they simply don't like us or our ways. hell, they don't even like each other---what's so hard to understand about that.
somebody had to tell obama the truth about benghazi before he opened his mouth & i strongly believe that. you & i both know he didn't just happen to wake up, see what had happened & then comment on it. he was awakened & told what was going on when it first went down &, if he wasn't, the heads of the departments should have already been fired.
no matter how you slice it, obama/biden should have known---they are supposed to be the head of the fed gov't &, for them not to take responsibilty for the actions of those under them tells you that they both lack the leadership skills we so desperately need.

OBAMA, WHO IN THE HELL IS IN CONTROL OF OUR FED GOV'T???
hello america!!! i know why obama & company lied to us about the reasons for the 4 american deaths in benghazi but, i don't accept it. in fact, if anything, everybody that supported the claim that the video led to the protests & that's why those 4 americans died should be fired from the top down.....obama had been touting the success of his state department, the arab spring, bin laden's dead & al qaeda on the run so, for him to actually acknowledge terrorists actually pulled off a successful act of terrorism on american soil & against americans, is below him & that is not the kind of person i want or need in charge of anything. he would have been better off saying that somebody under him dropped the ball by not connecting all the dots & that he was ordering a special investigation to find out who & why & that heads would roll. but, that's not obama.
&, by the whitehouse fumbling the ball, the senate investigation is under under way & what's coming out under 'sworn' testimony is even more damming. & yes, i watched the whole senate hearing live on c-span.
if you heard charlene lamb (deputy assistant secretary for international affairs, bureau of diplomatic security) you'd know that obama dropped the ball &, you'd also know that biden lied last night when he said they didn't know.
1.....requests were made prior to 9/11 for stronger security & were denied---obama & company want you to believe that 'budget cuts' were the reason for the denial however, lamb was asked if they ever played a role in her determination for the denials & she answered, 'NO'
2.....there have been 230-234 separate incidents of violence against us or our 'friends' since 2011 leading up to the 4 american deaths & yet, obama & company swept them under the rug
3.....on the night of the attacks, video proves there was no demonstrations outside of the compound as has been reported to us by obama & company---in fact, they know ambassador stephens said good night to a turkish diplomat at 8:30pm & all was quiet in the area
4.....at 9:30pm, all hell broke loose & you now know the results
lamb is on record saying that they watched the whole thing in 'real time' from washington dc so, it's not even a little stretch to say that obama & company watched it also.there is no excuse for anybody in the obama admin to blame the 4 american deaths on anything other then what it was---a terrorist act carried out by those that want to inflict harm on us.
look, if obama & biden (the only 2 people in the whitehouse) honestly didn't know what happened the during the attacks or that there had been prior requests for more security, it just begs the question: who in the hell is running our fed gov't? with all the 'scandals' that have occurred within the obama admin, who do the heads of these agency's report to? if obama & biden didn't know, they should have known. after all, didn't you elect obama/biden to run the country? i'm finding it very hard to remember when you voted for hilary clinton to run our state department on her own without having to report to obama/biden.
for obama/biden to throw our state department & intelligence agency's under the bus without 'firing' anybody is just plain wrong. at some point, they must accept the responsibility instead of assigning blame. what i find so troubling is that everything that happens in the various fed agency's is not known by obama/biden. & yes, i'm talking about all the scandals that have rocked our fed gov't. however, i guess this is the kind of leadership you really wanted---someone that's supposed to control it but never knows anything about it...
obamas mouthpeice has been busy today trying to deflect what biden said from obama/biden........................
