JUST SAYING!!!

hello america!!! i feel for all those affected by the bombings in boston & i prayed. that said, there are more questions than answers:::who did it? why did they do it? how did they do it? etc; etc; etc. & then, i have additional questions such as:::have we let our guard down in our security measures? what were our bomb sniffing dogs doing?

yeah, i know. call me stupid but how can two bombs go off in close proximity & timing, at a populated event, without us knowing crap? hell, more people will be at/or near the finish line than anywhere else in a race &, the people that are charged with keeping us safe should know that. is it unreasonable to think that the finish line area should be an area that should require extra security measures? as i said, more questions than answers-which brings me to this...http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/04/15/obama-notified-boston-explosion-directs-whatever-assistance-is-necessary/

i was okay with the fbi, atf, state police & boston's finest doing their job however, with obama entering the 'fray', i have strong reservations. i look at the full weight of justice for the benghazi attack & i look at the full weight of justice for the gun walking program & we're still waiting on answers...........

4 YEARS & 7 DAY LATER!!!

hello america!!! we all know that talk is cheap---actions speak louder than words. here it is, 4/12/2013 & we have this...http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/04/12/north-korea-capable-arming-missile-with-nuclear-warhead-according-to-pentagon/

well, before i make my point, let's do some simple math here:::take 4/12/2013 & subtract 4/5/2009 from it & you should end up with::::7 days/4 years or, for you not-so-swift people, 4 years & 7 days. the math ties into this: 4 years & 7 days ago, obama gave a speech in prague just after north korea tested a rocket after warning them not to---this is an excerpt from that speech & at the end of it, a link to the whole speech as released by the whitehouse..............."But we go forward with no illusions. Some countries will break the rules. That's why we need a structure in place that ensures when any nation does, they will face consequences.

Just this morning, we were reminded again of why we need a new and more rigorous approach to address this threat. North Korea broke the rules once again by testing a rocket that could be used for long range missiles. This provocation underscores the need for action –- not just this afternoon at the U.N. Security Council, but in our determination to prevent the spread of these weapons.
Rules must be binding. Violations must be punished. Words must mean something. The world must stand together to prevent the spread of these weapons. Now is the time for a strong international response -- (applause) -- now is the time for a strong international response, and North Korea must know that the path to security and respect will never come through threats and illegal weapons. All nations must come together to build a stronger, global regime. And that's why we must stand shoulder to shoulder to pressure the North Koreans to change course."
after all the blustering, posturing, sanctions & global agreement, north korea is defying us once again & all we do is talk....4 year & 7 days later our gov't is now saying  that north korea may be able to mount a nuke on a missile...all i want to ask is: who allowed it to get to this point? &, the answer is; obama.

JOBS ARE NOT A PRIORITY!!!

hello america!!! it's too late to change your vote & my telling you, 'i told you so', isn't any help to anybody. however, what made you obama supporters think he would be able to put america back to work in a second term when he couldn't do it in his first term? if obama were as serious about our jobs market as he would have you believe, he could have 'fixed' it (in his first two years in office) exactly like he shoved obamacare down our throats.

now, we can all make excuses for the horrific state of our jobs market but, in reality, something is hindering employers from hiring &, it's has nothing to do with them having a lack of money....it's a lot more complicated than that. just about every day you read about an obama-regulation or tax increase that actually does hurt jobs growth. couple those two with the costs (& growing uncertainty) of obamacare on businesses & you begin to see why we are where we are. now, add in the added costs of energy, state & local taxes & fees &, the costs to run a business become strained.

yes, you can argue that employers are greedy but hey, who runs a business NOT to make a profit? on that same note; didn't you go to school &/or college to land a better paying job? does that make you greedy? obama & company condemn the walmarts, exxon's & BoA's & yet, you never hear a word from them about the music & movie industries, religions, professional sports or lawyers....why is one greedy & the other isn't?---hmmn!!!

look, for the month of march 2013, only 88,000 new jobs were filled while 385,000 new jobless claims were reported. as i've previously posted, in march alone, 1,757,000 filed for unemployment compensation. those numbers are pathetic &, according to the bureau of labor statistics, 803,000 people just stopped looking for work. good people, all this happened in just one month. here, read the report for yourself... http://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.nr0.htm

good people, while gun control, immigration reform & same-sex marriage may be very important to you, what good is it if you don't have a job? or, to put it another way, which one of you grew up with the dream of living of living on welfare & foodstamps????

in truth, gov romney's plan for putting america back to work is looking better every day....just saying.

ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST!!!

hello america!!! firstly, which super-smart-idiot thinks a $97,000 car is going to be a hit in today's economy? secondly, which super-smart-idiot thinks freely giving tax-payer money to a 'green company' is a good investment & defends that thinking in the face of the 'green company's' collapse? what super-smart-idiot would continue to invest tax-payer money in these failing projects just to stay true to his own personal agenda?-----good people, i give you obama........

here's another failure...http://gma.yahoo.com/signs-solyndra-fisker-lays-off-75-percent-employees-200604719--abc-news-topstories.html

PREPARE FOR THE LIES!!!

hello america!!! i said it before & it's worth repeating::::get ready to hear how the sequestration has cost us all these jobs; how the repubs are killing jobs-growth; &, it's the fault of pres bush & the repubs...the monthly jobs report (for march 2013) is due out in 1 1/2 hours & obama & company are preparing their condemnations of the repubs. the national unemployment number has to rise......

rather then let you get caught up in the lies you're about to hear, the following links should prove to you that the 'sequestration' has not caught up to us yet............none of the layoffs have anything to do with it.

good people, the dems are not interested in putting america back to work---they just want a monopoly in congress so they can print more more. more teachers & federally funded infrastructure jobs are not the answer.........

OBAMA & UNEMPLOYMENT!!!

hello america!!! we already know that obama is going to blame the high jobless claims numbers on sequestration but hey, what else can you expect from somebody that refuses to accept responsibility for anything that reflects failure. here are the newest numbers &, no matter what's the blame, they are not good for anybody...http://www.dol.gov/opa/media/press/eta/ui/current.htm

good people, since obama was first elected, i've been trying my best to follow the unemployment numbers as best i can & at no time have i been impressed with them. &, i've been following the excuses:::::if the numbers were low it was because of obamas stimulus &, if they were high, it was because of pres bush & the repubs; if the numbers come out low (unexpectedly), 'we've turned the corner' or, 'we're heading in the right direction' &, when they come out high (unexpectedly), 'the repubs are holding up jobs bills'. so, i ask each & every one of you: in 50 months, exactly what has obama actually done to put america back to work? no, i don't want to hear anything about what he said, i need credible evidence that prove his actions..........&, we could argue about his stimulus but hey, it didn't work & doesn't count because it was like giving a homeless man $3.00 & never expecting him to be homeless again---it just doesn't work. 'give a man a fish & you feed him for today-teach a man to fish & you feed him for life'.

look, the bottom line is this: obama doesn't care about putting america back to work &, his actions have proved that. besides, employed people are more independent & less controllable whereas, unemployed people are more dependent on gov't assistance.

for the week ending 30 march, we have 385,000 new people to add to the rolls of the unemployed &, no matter what you say, i blame obama.

AMERICA, LOOK FOR THE TRUTH!!!

hello america!!! i know you can remember all of those failed energy companies that obama bailed out. i know you can remember his visiting that caterpillar plant in east peoria, ill on 2/12/2009 in gathering support for his stimulus---perhaps you can also remember the ceo rebutting what obama said &, if you can't, here it is...http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/story?id=6866995&page=1#.UVTIwBek8vw

a lot has happened since that visit (20,000 plus layoffs) & caterpillar is still having its problems. you can read it here...http://www.jsonline.com/business/caterpillar-to-lay-off-up-to-300-employees-in-south-milwaukee-5v9bg5r-200464291.html

fisker received a $529 million dollar loan from obama & they're still having major problems as seen here...
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/fisker-puts-u-workforce-furlough-012204588.html;

regardless of what obama says, economically, we are not improving. our jobs market is very chaotic & mostly negative & the numbers don't lie. here jan 2013... http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/business/2013/03/18/jan-state-unemployment/1996189/
this is feb 2013
http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/business/2013/03/08/february-employment-report/1971511/
mar 2013 should be released fri/apr 5th &, the news won't be encouraging.

it just seems that whatever obama touches, fails.
