President Obama will skip Memorial Day

visit to Arlington National Cemetery

 

 

 

 

 

Washington Post Staff Writers -  Friday, May 28, 2010

 

President Obama is skipping the traditional Memorial Day visit to Arlington National Cemetery, a move that has dismayed some veterans — and comes at a sensitive moment in the administration’s relationship with the military.   

 

Instead of speaking at Arlington, as he did last year and as most presidents have done, Obama will appear at the Abraham Lincoln National Cemetery outside Chicago, the White House said. Vice President Biden will take his place at Arlington, the most prestigious military cemetery in the country and home to Section 60, a large burial ground for soldiers killed in Iraq and Afghanistan.

How can ANYONE be a ‘Birther’?

How Can Anyone Be A Birther?

May 25, 2012 by Bob Livingston

 

Click for a larger image

According to the White House, this is Barack Obama’s “official” birth certificate.

 

“Birther” is a term the mainstream media have put on those who question whether President Barack Obama was born in the United States and is, therefore, eligible to hold the office of President. The MSM mean it as a derisive term. After all, no higher authority than Snopes.com has validated Obama’s citizenship.

 

So how can anyone believe Obama was born anywhere but Hawaii?

 

It certainly can’t be because Obama’s paternal step-grandmother once made the claim that Obama was born in Mombasa, Kenya, and that she was present at the birth.

 

It certainly can’t be because a Kenyan newspaper, the Sunday Standard, published an article in 2004 with the headline “Kenyan-born Obama all set for US Senate.”

 

It certainly can’t be because The Nigerian Observer published an article in November 2008 about how Kenyan-born Senator Barack Obama was the favorite to win the U.S. Presidential race.

 

It certainly can’t be because there are a number of other articles that say he is Kenya-born.

 

It certainly can’t be because an investigation by the Kenyan National Security Intelligence Service into claims Obama might be Kenyan-born determined relevant documents had been removed or were missing.

 

It certainly can’t be because the State of Hawaii has refused all requests — including multiple attempts from Maricopa County (Ariz.) Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s cold case posse — to release an original long-form birth certificate.

 

It certainly can’t be because of the many flaws found in the “official” birth certificate released by the White House last April.

 

It certainly can’t be because, if Obama himself is to be believed, his father’s Kenyan and British citizenship denies “natural-born” status and precludes Obama from serving.

 

It certainly can’t be because the Kenyan ambassador said it’s well-known that Obama was born in Kenya.

 

It certainly can’t be because Michelle Obama once called Kenya Obama’s “home country.”

 

It certainly can’t be because Arpaio’s investigative team has discovered that official records of inbound U.S. flights from the week of Obama’s supposed birth are missing from the National Archives.

 

It certainly can’t be because, as Breitbart.com released last week, Obama’s authorized biography from his literary agent in 1991 said Obama was born in Kenya, and that the biography remained that way through subsequent reprintings into 2007.

 

It certainly can’t be that he’s using a Social Security number issued from the State of Connecticut in either 1976 or 1977 even though he has never claimed to reside there and held his first job at a Hawaii Baskin-Robbins. This is one of a number — as many as 16 by some counts — of Social Security numbers that can be linked to Obama and his aliases.

 

And it certainly can’t have anything to do with the fact that Arizona Secretary of State Ken Bennett bowed to political pressure and changed his tune on Obama’s eligibility even before he had opened the email from Hawaii because he “was confident it contained the information he asked for.”

 

This birther nonsense is silly. No rational, thinking person could ever doubt that Obama was born in Hawaii.

Obama’s Memorial Day Ad Full Of Lies

Just this morning I had this AD ‘POP-UP’ on one of my local news sites (WTVD 11). Now, I’ve seen lots and lots of ads, distorting the TRUTH, come out of the Hussein Administration but this one really got my blood pressure UP! And don’t even get me started on “INDOCTRINATION Benefits”….AKA Education!

Let’s look at some FACTS, Shall We?

Think about this—- WWII, Korean, and a lot of Vietnam Veterans are now forced to use Medicare as their Primary Health Care Insurance Provider. Yet he states (lying I might add) in this ad that he is helping them! That is an out and out lie.

“The House Ways and Means Democratic staff has prepared a list of possible cuts to the Medicare program totaling more than $500 billion over 10 years, according to documents obtained by CQ HealthBeat.”

AND

“Skilled nursing facilities, home health agencies, inpatient rehabilitation facilities and long-term care acute hospitals would absorb up to $28 billion in cuts over two years through a freeze on their Medicare rates over that period.”

*********

Remember the 2011 Debt Ceiling Debate on Capital Hill????? When Barry threatened to withhold ACTIVE DUTY Military pay? AND they also threatened Social Security Recipients checks. Remember now, a lot of our Older Service Men & Women are collecting SS.

“The worst part of this whole debate is the Obama Administration’s decision to hold military pay hostage to the budget debate. For the last few decades, government shutdowns have been guided by an OMB directive issued during the Reagan Administration. Under this directive, military personnel would continue to receive the paychecks while politicians argued about the budget. The Clinton Administration, during the last government shutdown, kept the paychecks flowing.

 

But, not Obama.

 

The Obama Administration has overturned the old OMB directive and has decided to suspend military paychecks if there is a government shutdown. No reason to do it…but they have decided to. Reprehensible.

 

Of course, Republicans in the House passed the bill that Congress and the President should also have their pay frozen if a government shutdown happens- but Democrats in the Senate voted against it.”

And then there’s this one where the administration wants to again attack our Military folks 1^st and foremost….. from 2010 BEFORE the elections and the Republican takeover of the House.

“President Barack Obama — who came to power with the help of government employee unions across the nation and has lavished on them hundreds of billions in stimulus funds to keep them on federal, state and local payrolls with no strings attached — is moving to cut spending on salaries for military personnel.

 

This weekend The Washington Post headlined story, “Pentagon Asking Congress to Hold Back on Generous Increases in Troop Pay,” disclosed that the Obama administration is “pleading” with Congress to give military personnel a much smaller increase in pay than lawmakers have proposed.

 

The Pentagon contends that Congress simply has been too generous with troops during the past decade.

 

For example, the military brass claims that an average sergeant in the Army with four years of service and one dependent would receive $52,589 in annual compensation, according to the paper. This figure includes basic pay, housing, and subsistence allowances, as well as tax benefits.

 

Meanwhile, a U.S. postal letter carrier, with no supervisory or hazardous duty, makes approximately $80,000 a year when all benefits are factored in.”

*********

“The Obama administration’s proposed defense budget calls for military families and retirees to pay sharply more for their healthcare, while leaving unionized civilian defense workers’ benefits untouched. The proposal is causing a major rift within the Pentagon, according to U.S. officials. Several congressional aides suggested the move is designed to increase the enrollment in Obamacare’s state-run insurance exchanges.

 

The disparity in treatment between civilian and uniformed personnel is causing a backlash within the military that could undermine recruitment and retention.

 

The proposed increases in health care payments by service members, which must be approved by Congress, are part of the Pentagon’s $487 billion cut in spending. It seeks to save $1.8 billion from the Tricare medical system in the fiscal 2013 budget, and $12.9 billion by 2017.

 

Many in Congress are opposing the proposed changes, which would require the passage of new legislation before being put in place.”

 

“We shouldn’t ask our military to pay our bills when we aren’t willing to impose a similar hardship on the rest of the population,” Rep. Howard “Buck” McKeon, chairman of the House Armed Services Committee and a Republican from California, said in a statement to the Washington Free Beacon. “We can’t keep asking those who have given so much to give that much more.”

Looks like the Small Business owner will have to jump through several hoops of bureaucratic Red Tape before he will get this said credit. AND, if you’ll read it carefully, it appears that these said TAX credits have Already expired….. January 1, 2012!

Small business owners can receive a tax credit if they hire unemployed veterans who meet certain qualifications.

Eligibility

For the business to qualify for the $2,400 credit, the veteran must be a member of a family that has received food stamps for at least three months in the 15-month period before he is hired. To qualify for the $4,800 credit, a small business must hire a veteran that has a documented service-related injury and was released from active duty a year or less before employment or has been unemployed for six months out of the past year before a small business owner hires him. To qualify for the largest tax credit, a small business owner must hire a veteran who has participated in TANF for 18 consecutive months before his hire date.

Documentation

Small business owners must make filings with the Department of Labor and the Internal Revenue Service to receive tax credits for hiring veterans. These filings include IRS Form 8850, titled “Pre-Screening Notice and Certification Request for the Work Opportunity Tax Credit,” and ETA Form 9061. ETA stands for the Labor Department’s Employment and Training Administration. Small business owners must fill out ETA Form 9062 instead of 9061 if the veteran was referred to them by a vocational rehabilitation agency.

Time Frame

Small business owners must file forms no later than 28 days after they hire a qualifying veteran, and they must keep veterans on staff for at least 120 hours to keep the credit. The credit was scheduled to expire Jan. 1, 2012, but business owners should check with the Department of Labor for possible extensions.

Obamacare Bill – Constitutional Review

I received this in an email from a very trusted source.

CONSTITUTIONAL LAWYER HAS READ THE ENTIRE BILL

 

Wait until you read this…

A retired Constitutional lawyer has read the entire proposed healthcare bill. Read his conclusions and pass this on as you wish.

 

The Truth About the Health Care Bills – Michael Connelly, Ret. Constitutional Attorney

 

                Well, I have done it! I have read the entire text of proposed House Bill 3200: The Affordable Health Care Choices Act of 2009. I studied it with particular emphasis from my area of expertise, constitutional law. I was frankly concerned that parts of the proposed law that were being discussed might be unconstitutional. What I found was far worse than what I had heard or expected.

                To begin with, much of what has been said about the law and its implications is in fact true, despite what the Democrats and the media are saying. The law does provide for rationing of health care, particularly where senior citizens and other classes of citizens are involved, free health care for illegal immigrants, free abortion services, and probably forced participation in abortions by members of the medical profession.

                The Bill will also eventually force private insurance companies out of business, and put everyone into a government run system. All decisions about personal health care will ultimately be made by federal bureaucrats, and most of them will not be health care professionals. Hospital admissions, payments to physicians, and allocations of necessary medical devices will be strictly controlled by the government.

                However, as scary as all of that is, it just scratches the surface. In fact, I have concluded that this legislation really has no intention of providing affordable health care choices. Instead it is a convenient cover for the most massive transfer of power to the Executive Branch of government that has ever occurred, or even been contemplated If this law or a similar one is adopted, major portions of the Constitution of the United States will effectively have been destroyed.

                The first thing to go will be the masterfully crafted balance of power between the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches of the U.S. Government. The Congress will be transferring to the Obama Administration authority in a number of different areas over the lives of the American people, and the businesses they own.

                The irony is that the Congress doesn’t have any authority to legislate in most of those areas to begin with! I defy anyone to read the text of the U.S. Constitution and find any authority granted to the members of Congress to regulate health care.

                This legislation also provides for access, by the appointees of the Obama administration, of all of your personal healthcare direct violation of the specific provisions of the 4th Amendment to the Constitution information, your personal financial information, and the information of your employer, physician, and hospital. All of this is a protecting against unreasonable searches and seizures. You can also forget about the right to privacy. That will have been legislated into oblivion regardless of what the 3rd and 4th Amendments may provide…

                If you decide not to have healthcare insurance, or if you have private insurance that is not deemed acceptable to the Health Choices Administrator appointed by Obama, there will be a tax imposed on you. It is called a tax instead of a fine because of the intent to avoid application of the due process clause of the 5th Amendment. However, that doesn’t work because since there is nothing in the law that allows you to contest or appeal the imposition of the tax, it is definitely depriving someone of property without the due process of law.

So, there are three of those pesky amendments that the far left hate so much, out the original ten in the Bill of Rights, that are effectively nullified by this law It doesn’t stop there though.

                The 9th Amendment that provides: The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people;

The 10th Amendment states: The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are preserved to the States respectively, or to the people. Under the provisions of this piece of Congressional handiwork neither the people nor the states are going to have any rights or powers at all in many areas that once were theirs to control.

                I could write many more pages about this legislation, but I think you get the idea. This is not about health care; it is about seizing power and limiting rights… Article 6 of the Constitution requires the members of both houses of Congress to “be bound by oath or affirmation to support the Constitution.” If I was a member of Congress I would not be able to vote for this legislation or anything like it, without feeling I was violating that sacred oath or affirmation. If I voted for it anyway, I would hope the American people would hold me accountable.

                For those who might doubt the nature of this threat, I suggest they consult the source, the US Constitution, and Bill of Rights. There you can see exactly what we are about to have taken from us.

Comparision: $100 investment now worth $34 = Success or Failure?

Since most folks have a tough time visualizing huge numbers, I took away the 9 ZEROS.

“Would you hire President Obama as your financial adviser?

Three years ago his administration invested more than $100 BILLION in TAXPAYER MONEY to bail out General Motors. On Tuesday, 5/15/2012, the entire company, not just what the government owns, was worth less than $34 billion.

By anyone’s definition, that investment is a glaring failure.

Yet over the last few days the Obama campaign, in a $25 million marketing blitz, has flooded the airwaves with ads in battleground states, claiming the bailout should be counted a rousing success.”
