Which he's going to need after he loses a big chunk of his Jewish supporters (though the anti-Zionist/anti-Israel Sun, 22 May 2011 22:05:16 +0000 http://www.newsrealblog.com/2011/05/19/president-obamas-message-to-israel-go-to-hell/#IDComment155052805 http://www.newsrealblog.com/2011/04/29/1-69/#IDComment147593609 I'm all for Ron Paul as Secretary of Treasury or Commerce Secretary. I think he'd be the best we'd ever had in those positions. But in charge of defending this country? Uh uh! Nope! Sorry! While I've begun leaning in the direction of pulling our troops out of EVERYWHERE, and STAYING out it's not for the reasons Paul says, but because, I think, the American people no longer have the guts to fight to win. Our military does, but we won't let them, so bring them home. No point sacrificing courageous and honorable men and women for cowardly children's play games. But when Hamas comes over the border led by La Raza in search of establishing Azatlan (or whatever they're saying CA, AZ, NM, and TX really are), or China playing war games off our coasts, I want a president willing to use everything including the kitchen sink and yell, "GET THE HELL OFF OUR LAWN!" Not invite them into the backyard for a BBQ, as Ron Paul would do, I'm afraid.

Can Obama’s liberal, Jewish supporters explain this phenomenon?" I'm afraid that if Obama did visit Israel it would be aboard a floatilla ship dispatched to arm Hamas. He'd after all be in the company of Bernadine Dorn and Bill Ayres. Then he could just claim he was there only to announce his candidacy for UN Secretary General, and that he wasn't aware of any terrorist agenda. The terrorists just happened to be on the same ship as him, etc. etc. .

Go figure. If we were to do mass protests it should be against the White House, Congressional members, and progressive organizations who are so busy throwing up obstacles against businesses who actually create REAL jobs, not more gov't teats..

Except the whole compromise thing is always decidedly one-sided. In 2009 we heard all about how "elections have consequences!" and "WE won!" to steam-roll the oposition. Not surprisingly, the day after the 2010 elections, those same voices started whining about "bipartisanship" and "comprimise". So while the Dems refused to budge when they were in power, now that the tides have turned they still won't budge--it's the Republicans who are expected to roll over.

And NPR's dismissing it all because he appearently resigned weeks ago anyway. So NPR doesn't have to do any self-reflection on their biases, and we ignorant, racist clingers should just shut up and keep paying our betters the money and drooling admiration they deserve.

And after after the latest NPR revelations, I can't help but believe NYT's actions were absolutely deliberate. Ya know, the more I think about it the more I do believe BO & the Dems DID actually follow through with a campaign promise--to create a culture of openess and transparency. The gov't is now the most openly corrupt its ever been, and it's media cronies no longer even has to pretend its even remotely "objective".

Fri, 4 Mar 2011 13:34:07 +0000 http://www.newsrealblog.com/2011/03/03/louis-farrakhan-and-charlie-sheen%e2%80%94separated-at-birth/#IDComment132368119 http://frontpagemag.com/2011/03/01/how-the-left-nurtures-unions/#IDComment131589830 And let's not forget BO's admin's determination to destroy a major company--Toyota. Why? I believe the whole reason why the gov't went full-throttle against a company which actually had a higher safety rating than Gov't Motors or Chystler, was the UAW wanted the union forced on a successful company that employed thousands of Americans but tended to build its plants in Right to Work states.

Oh, no . . . I forgot. Iran's leader wants to obliterate America and Israel, so the protests against him don't fit Obama's definition of inspired democratic movements and are worthy of being brutally shut down in BO's eyes.

We here in the SW are beginning to really understand what it's like to be Israel--facing an enemy that wants to destroy us, that is demanding its own version of the "right of return", while being condemned and pressured (and prosecuted!) for trying to do what we have to to protect ourselves and survive.

Sun, 27 Feb 2011 13:31:22 +0000 http://www.newsrealblog.com/2011/02/26/impeachable-offenses-has-obama-crossed-the-line-1/#IDComment131064139 http://www.newsrealblog.com/2011/02/25/john-avlon-gives-hysterical-madison-protesters-a-dose-of-reality/#IDComment130832461 At some point, the "Public Servant" became the "Public Boss", and the tax-payer became the "servant". As a former private-sector public-sector slave, I lost my benefits 2 yrs ago, willing to take the cut if it meant saving my job. Last year, I had to take an additional 8% pay-cut, again willing to do so to try to save the company I worked for . . . and yet I was still paying the pay-checks of those public sector masters. Then last fall, my company had no choice, had to close a store and I lost my job, collecting unemployment and STILL having to pay my public-master's paychecks. And since these public-masters' idea of "soaking the rich" pretty much covers every one of my potential employers, I'm still unemployed 'cause they can't hire and are struggling to hang on to the workers they already have. Some haven't succeeded and have closed, filed for bankruptcy, or have been forced into massive lay-offs. So when I see these spoiled brats throwing their tantrums, I'm hard-pressed to find any sympathy for their cause.

Just ask any Ukranian, Cambodian, or Rwandan Tutsi. No, they reserve that term to refer to KFC chickens and WV mountain tops. And since their messiah's beloved preacher Jeremiah Wright is good buddies with Gaddafi, and BO worked so hard to get the Lockerbie bomber released for "humanitarian reasons", the Left would much rather turn their sights on the genocidal actions of a Wisconsin governor.

I wonder why there has been absolutely no investigation into the Venus Project? I understand the Tucson shootings were adopted by the Left as a result of Talk Radio/Tea Party/Beck "vitriol". And the Right, understandably wanted the narrative to be that it was the result of a non-political mentally-disturbed individual. Except I watched those Zeitgeist films, and the shooter's crazy rantings didn't seem so incoherent once you saw what the message of those films was. They were in line. The Venus Project is exactly what Soros' Open Society ultimately intends to create. So it's not surprising a quick google search showed OSI funding the Venus Project. I'm not saying Soros told that Tucson kid to go out and murder a member of Congress, but when the last line of the 2nd movie is "The Revolution Begins" . . . I'm just sayin' . . .

When the stock market was up, McCain's poll numbers soared. But 15mins before closing bell, the market would drop 300, 400, 500 points. I was listening to an economist on the radio saying not to look at the closing numbers, but look at the activity during the trading day. He said average Joe investors had long since ditched the stock market. Pro investers were just staying put. The insanity was ALL hedge funders. And if they could pull off dismal closing numbers at the last minute . . . well, McCain's poll numbers tanked, and BO's rose. And who was one of the biggest hedge funder? Why, Soros! He had experience in crashing national economies (Britain's, Russia's), and I think he was manipulating the U.S. economy to insure his puppet got into office.

A member of Congress spoke about it (can't remember his name, but it was on a CSPAN interview), and claimed it was the real catalyst for the break-neck push for TARP. cont . . .

This is the "bottom up, top down, inside out" transformational change his administration has been promising since day one. And again, like in Louisiana and Arizona, we see a U.S. president declaring war on a U.S. state governor and by extension, the U.S. citizens of that state.

Then we can build a wall--a long one--that keeps Californians out. I'm a native of a state that has been invaded and occupied by CA wack-jobs for years. So is it any wonder NM ranks at the top of the highest poverty rates in the country? And every time we try to dig ourselves out of that hole, the CA ex-pats not only drag us back in, but dig us even deeper. We aren't allowed to drill for our own oil and natural gas anymore, so when we recorded the lowest temps in the U.S. (including Alaska) a couple of weeks ago, we couldn't heat our homes because the natural gas we have to pipe in from TX got cut off because of TX's rolling blackouts. Now we've got the Hollyweird bunch throwing fits because we can't afford to subsidize the crap they produce here anymore. We're still waiting for y'all to pay your bills!
