TRAYVON MARTIN - EVERYTHING IS NOT ABOUT RACE

I am not one to shy away from controversy especially when it affects the wonderful country that I love and would gladly lay my life down for. All of the information is not out about the shooting of Trayvon Martin and when and if it does it is likely going to be found that there was fault on all sides and that both were victims yet the tragedy is that a seventeen year old man is dead.

Whenever something like this happens especially,(I am going to get very frank now so be fore warned), when it involves a black person and another person of another ethnicity it IS NOT ALWAYS race related. Zimmerman was over zealous in his actions but his history does not show him a racist. The entire country has erupted over this incident and it is on the verge of becoming a race war.

Yet last Saturday a white college student at Mississippi State was killed by three black suspects and it is not considered news. In the same week in Chicago 51 murders were committed in what is called black on black crime and again it is not considered news. ANY young man or woman killed in our country is a tragedy but it is only when it can be turned into a race fight that it becomes news, investigated and people rise up to bring attention to it.

I grew up in the sixties. I saw Jim Crow laws enforced first hand and even as a child it disgusted me. I saw race riots first hand and watched in awe as Martin Luther King fought peacefully to change our Nation for the better. Yet I believe that if he were alive today he would be saddened to see EVERYTHING turned into an argument about race and many of the very things he fought for being reversed for political correctness or political gain.

We criticize the President and we are called racists. In many areas of our country people are again looking upon one another with suspicion simply because it is being encouraged in ways that up until the past few years had been long gone in our country. We are a country where a person is judged by their character and their accomplishments and NOT by the color of their skin. But when I watch ridiculous threats and riots taking place and a rush to judgement as has happened in the Martin killing it sickens me because we as a people have grown past looking at each other by ethnicity and it is now being used almost solely as a political football.

We are not a country of hyphenated Americans. My mothers family immigrated to The United States from Italy and she was the only child of nine born in America so I am only one generation away from Italy but I AM NOT AN ITALIAN - AMERICAN, I AM AN AMERICAN PERIOD! Sure it is good to remember our heritage and family back grounds but separating people based upon where their parentage or where ancestors came from does nothing more than spotlight our differences rather than our common bond of being citizens of the greatest country in the world and a FREE people.

As Americans we should hide our selves in shame if we look upon ANY fellow countryman or woman and see the color of their skin first rather than seeing ONLY a fellow American. We as a people will NEVER get past race unless we can look upon one another without seeing color or ethnicity but see a fellow American ONLY!

I could care less about what color Barack Obama is I disagree with him because of what he does, NOT his ethnic back ground. I am proud that our country was finally able to elect a black President, I just believe HE is wrong for the country because of policy not color and anyone who disagrees with him for the reason of race is a idiot!

Yes the killing of Trayvon Martin is a tragedy but so are the deaths of soldiers who die defending our freedom. So are the deaths of the thousands who die in traffic accidents every year. The hundreds of murders that take place by senseless crimes are tragedies but no one protests these deaths nor calls for Congressional hearings or create a firestorm of controversy.

An irresponsible media seeking sensational headlines exploded this tragedy in Sanford, Florida by not telling the whole story and creating a firestorm for the sole purpose of ratings and selling papers. Using catch words and phrases that they knew would spark controversy succeeded in sensationalising a story which has now completely forgotten what has actually happened.

The tragedy here is that a young man is dead. A father who was looking after his neighbors and may or may not have over reacted has ruined his life by having to live with what has happened and the results of a media seeking sensationalism. If charges are brought and he is found guilty in this tragedy then a family will be tragically destroyed along with the family of the dead young man.

But now because it has been turned into a race problem the tragic consequences for everyone involved are forgotten and commentators, media types, well known camera hounds and celebrities are using it as a means of gaining yet another fifteen minutes of fame by crying racism.

Once again the world looks on America as a racist country and once again Americans who are not racists are seen that way by the masses. Are there real racists? Yes unfortunately but they are a small minority of idiots whose stupidity is not worth talking about. The vast majority of Americans live each day among all ethnicity's and pay no attention to color or race but only to the individual as a person and THAT is who we are as Americans. A hodge podge of ethnic back grounds with family heritage that differs from person to person. But we all have one thing in common. WE ARE AMERICANS and cherish freedom and liberty and THAT has nothing to do with race or racism and that should be all we see when we look at one another!

OBAMACARE AND SCOTUS, TWO DAYS, TWO STRIKES

The case before the Supreme Court over the Constitutionality of Obamacare has ended its second day with the arguments by the Obama administration representing the case for the government falling on very sceptical and questioning ears. From even the most liberal on the Court questions were raised the first day over the Obama argument that the laws requirement that everyone purchase health care was a tax.

From day one in this Obamacare nightmare those supporting the debacle have denied it was a tax, but as their day before SCOTUS drew closer lawyers began referring to it as a tax in order to use a little known law from the late 19th Century which stated that any tax cannot be overturned or taken up by the High Court until it has been implemented and monies collected. As such the Court would have to throw out the case until full implementation takes place in 2014.

It wasn't just the conservative Justices who had a problem with this argument as Justices Breyer and the extremely liberal Ginsburg both questioned the validity of the law being called a tax while Justice Alito actually called the Obama lawyers on it directly when he stated to them that, "today," (referring to the first day of arguments), they would be calling it a tax and, "tomorrow," ( referring to the second day), they would not call it a tax.

Day two brought the hardest blow for Obama and the governments case when Justice Scalia interrupted Justice Ginsburg, which is highly unusual and questioned her assertion during a discussion with Verrelli the governments lead attorney that since all citizens would at one point require health care services it is therefore proper that the government require health care insurance. Scalia stated that every citizen must eat so should the government require citizens to eat broccoli?

The worst, (or best if you like me are against Obamacare), blow to the governments case came from Justice Kennedy who is considered the swing vote. Kennedy stated that the mandate, "fundamentally changes the relationship between the government and its citizens," and as such oversteps the limitation of government and the Commerce Clause which is the Constitutional provision the the Obama administration considers its justification for the mandate.

The first two days of arguments before SCOTUS on Obamacare have been good news and a very good sign that this unconstitutional law will be overturned by the High Court. While still not set in stone that it is an absolute with the Court, the fat lady is beginning to dress for her song singing the death of Obamacare.

OBAMA LIES ABOUT SUPPORT FOR KEYSTONE PIPELINE

With more than 70% of the country favoring the Keystone Pipeline and a favorable rating of more than 60% of Democrats supporting this vital oil line from Canada, Barack Obama the poll driven pretender who sits in The White House made a trip to Oklahoma and amidst a pile of pipes destined to build one segment of the pipeline claims he is putting this on a fast track when in actuality he is lying and deceiving the public.

The segment of the pipeline that Obama claims he has put on a fast track to complete travels from Oklahoma to Northern Texas and has been approved and in construction for some time. If Obama tried to stop this portion of the pipeline he couldn't because it is nearly completed and his so called, "fast track," is nothing more than a political move to play to the majority of the country that favor this pipeline.

What he is trying to hide from the public is his personal lobbying efforts to stop the portion of the pipeline that is supposed to bring oil from Canada to Oklahoma. He has personally vetoed this portion of the pipeline and when the House included approval of this as an amendment to a bill, Obama personally called Democrat Senators to get them to vote against the amendment when the bill reached the Senate. They did and it failed once again stopping the oil from leaving Canada and coming to the US.

The section of pipeline he is claiming to fast track cannot transport any oil because the portion he has blocked actually brings the oil from Canada to Oklahoma then to Texas. So in essence Obama is making a political move supposedly backing a section of the pipeline that when completed will sit empty since Obama has blocked the Northern portion.

This trip to Oklahoma attaching himself politically to a project already underway and that he could not stop was nothing more than a photo op to cover his lying butt and try to deceive Americans into believing he really cares about the high price we are paying at the pump for gas. He has spent his entire time in office attacking anything oil and is responsible for much of our high gas prices and continues to block any real solutions for relief such as the Keystone Pipeline and leases on government land to oil companies for exploration which would IMMEDIATELY force the price down as futures markets would see the supply capability increase with the land leases.

Anyone supporting Obama for reelection is supporting the continuation of bankrupting energy prices. Anyone supporting Obama for reelection is favoring gas prices that will likely top $10.00 a gallon during the first year of a second Obama term. Anyone supporting Obama for reelection is being duped into believing that he actually cares for Americans and is concerned about the damage his economy and energy policy is doing to the hard working people of The United States.

REPUBLICAN NOMINATION, WHAT'S THE RUSH

Romney leads in delegates but is still far from the 1144 needed for the nomination. With states holding primaries until the first of June there are hundreds of delegates left for grabs and a real possibility that because of the way delegates are proportioned this year no one will get the needed number to gain the nomination before the Convention in August. So what's the hurry?

Pundits, commentators, media types, the GOP establishment and many rank and file Republicans on social network sites and blogs are calling for everyone to unite behind Romney and end this process so that we can get on with the campaigning for the general election now. All claiming that continuing the GOP process will help Obama and hurt the chances of Republicans in defeating Obama this Fall.

I absolutely disagree for several reasons. Why not let the vetting and the process continue until the Convention? Vetting only helps GOP candidates because it reveals any skeletons now instead of anything coming as the much feared October surprise that Democrats love to throw into the mix in the last few days before Americans vote. Also we currently have a badly vetted former candidate in the Presidency and we STILL don't know much about his background.

So many fear what is called a brokered Convention but the reality is that a brokered Convention works to the advantage of Republicans because the spotlight will be on the GOP, viewership of the Convention will be higher than any previous Convention and the free publicity can only help the eventual nominee and give him a head of steam going into the Fall campaign that Democrats will not have since Obama's nomination is an absolute.

Another advantage for Republicans for the process going to the Convention is the lack of lull in campaign news that would take place from June to August. If the nominee is still up in the air during the Summer months once again the political focus will be on the GOP and the discussion in beating Obama rather than the Obama loving media spending the Summer months touting their boy and ignoring the GOP candidate and the failures of Obama.

Also it is quite obvious that even with the Obama campaign struggling for donations that both the campaign and the DNC will have a large war chest to run against the eventual nominee. They will as usual use every dirty trick they can find to attack and attempt to destroy the eventual candidate. Why give them the entire Summer as well as the Fall campaign to play their dirty tricks. If the nominee is not known until August, the Summer belongs to Republicans and not the Obama attack machine.

During this time GOP candidates can continue a three way attack against Obama without the Obama campaign having little ammunition against the attacks since they will have to go against three rather than just one and as such will choose to wait or continue the failing publicity tours that Obama is doing now which are hurting him more than helping him.

If the nominee is not known until August it gives Obama and the DNC much less time to play their lying blame game against Republicans and use the more than willing liberal media as a free source of campaign rhetoric. The Obama camp will have much less time to look for those gotcha moments about the Republican nominee and be forced to spend more time on the issues and Obama will lose on the issues.

We rushed to get a nominee in 2008 and had one of the weakest campaigns ever run by the GOP. The only real excitement that the McCain campaign had was Sarah Palin and as good as she was that alone was not enough to defeat the Obama/DNC machine. Mitt Romney is creating even less excitement among Republicans, Independents and unaffiliated voters that McCain and we saw the results of the less than enthusiastic support in 2008.

We do not have to have a nominee to, "unite," behind just because the pundits, GOP establishment and the media say we have to. Unless there is support that will get voters to the polls in November we could very well end up with another Obama term which will be the destruction of our country. Rushing to a nominee just, "because," is not a reason. Uniting behind a lackluster candidate works to Obama's advantage. A hard fought and well publicized Convention with a candidate leaving having a head of steam and enthusiastic support gives Republicans and the defeat of Obama the advantage going into the Fall and control of an issues related campaign rather than a series of DNC gotcha moments. All of which means the end of Obama and the beginning of the restoration of America. So why rush????

BARACK OBAMA SHOWN IN TRUTH BY JON McNAUGHTON

He has painted what the left call controversial paintings but what he depicts on canvas show the eye of a patriot and one who understands what is happening to out beloved country. Jon McNaughton, (click on his name to visit his website), has painted some tremendously thought provoking paintings that tell the story of the decline of our Nation.

Familiar renderings from this excellent artist include, The Forgotten Man, Wake Up America, Peace Is Coming and One Nation Under God, all of which depict a powerful, meaningful message that brings home the issues and troubles that face our Nation and the dangers that our country faces as government takes us further from the vision of our Founders.

The picture to the left is his most recent which depicts Barack Obama burning the Constitution a clear reference to the message we conservatives have been telling the Nation since well before the Constitutional usurper took office. Obama has trampled and spit upon our Constitution since taking office and continues to do so with an agenda and policy that would disgust the Framers of our founding document and the brave men and women who have given their lives defending the Constitution since our country adopted it in 1787.

Many consider Mr. McNaughton's portrait of Obama with a buring Constitution controversial but the reality is that this brilliant artist has shown in an inspired painting why Obama must be defeated this fall and what will continue if he is allowed by reelection to remain in the office he currently holds. Obama has no respect for our Constitution and has said as much when he stated in a 2002 interview that it was a flawed document because it did not say what the government must do for citizens and only stated what the government could not do. He does not grasp the fact that the Constitution was written to protect the people FROM an all powerful government and that we the people loan power to the government in which we have full authority over.

Thank Mr. McNaughton for yet another brilliant portrait and your patriotism. Thank you for taking a stand for freedom and the restoration of our beloved Republic to its Constitutional principles and beliefs. Be sure to follow the links above to his website and support this American patriot!

BARACK OBAMA - EXECUTIVE ORDER TO CONTROL ALL US RESOURCES

In an act that befits a tyrant Barack Obama issued the following Executive Order giving him the absolute authority to take control of all aspects of energy, production, transportation, food, and even water resources by decree under the auspices of national defense and national security not just in time of war but at anytime he as President determines it to be necessary.

The National Defense Resources Preparedness order by his hand allows him as President to take control of all energy production, food services, transportation, and water resources in The United States solely by his determination and in accordance to how he as President believes it should be handled and in accordance to what he determines to be the emergency situation that causes implementation of this tyrannical order. In one simple move Obama has bypassed the Constitution, separation of powers and expanded the authority of the Executive Branch to allow complete control of all goods, services, energy and transportation in America.

This is an order which if implemented ends our Republic and begins an Obama Autocratic government which opens the door to full tyranny and dictatorship.

BARACK OBAMA

THE WHITE HOUSE,
March 16, 2012.

BARACK OBAMA IS A LIAR ABOUT OIL

Barack Obama is a liar. We who have actually looked into this flim flam man have been warning of this professional liar since he first started running for the Presidency. Many are finally realizing what we have known for several years. Some are still duped into believing his lies. But the bottom line is that Barack Obama is a liar and this graph to the left proves it and that he KNOWS he is lying in order to push his bankrupting green energy agenda on Americans.

I spent a only five minutes on the web and found literally dozens of charts, graphs and articles that show Obama to be an absolute liar when he claims that The United States has only 2% of the worlds oil reserves. He has thousands more sources than I so this is a deliberate lie about oil. He whines that we cannot drill our way to lower gas prices and energy independence. That is what he wants everyone to believe because he hates oil, he hates that we are an oil based society and he wants to force his green energy down our throats with technology that is still decades away from being even feasible for mass consumption. But by perpetrating this lie and forcing the price of gas higher and higher by this lie and his energy policy he believes can make Americans give up our freedom abandon our cars, SUV's, trucks and follow as good little sheep the energy messiah into the nether lands of energy options that are still on the drawing board.

This graph shows in BILLIONS of barrels the KNOWN oil reserves available just on shore in The United States with the numbers of KNOWN available barrels off shore located in the lower right hand corner of the graph. This does not include the additional billions of barrels of untapped resources that have been put to a halt by Obama as he has ended ALL oil exploration in The United States by Executive Order. It is estimated that undiscovered oil just based on what is know to be available will more than triple the known reserves and some estimates actually multiply it 25 times. Enough to fit ALL of our Nations energy needs WITHOUT a drop of foreign oil for well over 100 years with much more discovery expected that would increase those years greatly.

This also does not include the hundreds of billions of barrels of oil shale which have also been outlawed by Obama for both research and development. His defenders say as President and Obama himself says he has no control over gas prices. Well let me correct this lie here and now. While he does not have any direct control over the specific day to day task of getting oil out of the ground Obama does have the ability to move the futures market in a lower direction by easing future demand and allow drilling in these untapped resources which shows a future supply increase.

When the price of a barrel of oil unexpectedly and quickly skyrocketed above $145 dollars while Bush was President he by Executive Order increased the leases of oil exploration and discovery on all government held lands and with the prospect of increased future supply from known sources on those lands the price of a barrel of oil began dropping in just a few days and within a few months dropped more than $60 dollars a barrel solely on the Bush Executive Order.

Since taking office Obama has reversed the Bush orders ending the lease increases and additionally has ended another 32% of leased areas for exploration virtually putting a halt to all new discovery in The United States. He has also ended all drilling on government lands and all offshore drilling. His claim that we are drilling more now than ever before is based on drilling taking place ONLY on private lands which in most cases is harder to reach and harder to exploit causing the cost of getting the oil to be much higher which equates to a higher per barrel cost than on government held lands.

So is Obama doing everything in his power to help the price at the pump as he says he is? Absolutely NOT unless it is to INCREASE the price at the pump then he IS doing all in his power to make that increase happen. He can also with a signature decrease the per gallon tax but of course he has NEVER favored decreasing any tax so that will not happen.

The high price of gas is directly responsible for increased cost of ALL goods as transportation cost have skyrocketed along with gas. We are an oil based society and Obama knows it but in order to force his green energy much of which equates to failed businesses that have benefited from and then bankrupted owing tax payer given money, he is willing to sacrifice the hard earned income of the American people to much increased gas prices to force us to bow to his policy and plan.

The price continues to rise, Obama continues to make campaign stop after campaign stop lying to the American people about oil and what he is actually doing. If this liar is reelected we as Americans will be where he has stated on the record he wants the American people to be, in line with the price of gas in Europe. If reelected by the end of the first year of a second term we will be approaching $10 per gallon at the pump and Obama will be sitting in The White House with a smile on his face knowing he lied his way to European Socialism and the bankruptcy of America.

OBAMA'S CRONIES GET STATE DINNER PAYOLA

When running for office Barack Obama whined about Washington payola and the politics of cronyism. Complaining that it was the largest source of corruption in Washington and he would end the practice if elected and under an Obama administration it would not only never happen but he would put an end to the practice at all levels of government.

So much for his campaign because the truth after he took office makes this particular campaign promise just one more lie in a long list of lies told by the campaigner in chief. If Obama was Pinocchio his nose would stretch from Sea to shining Sea. If you are an Obama donor or a friend of the liar in chief then you become a guest at State Dinners.

State Dinners are usually reserved for dignitaries, members of Congress, Justices of the Supreme Court etc. But for Barack Obama a State Dinner is an opportunity to reward those on his donors list giving them a chance to hob nob with dignitaries from around the world. A prime example is the Wednesday Evening State Dinner in honor of Prime Minister David Cameron of Great Britain.

No less that 41 Obama contributors were on the guest list for this State Dinner all of which donated from $100 to $500 K to the Obama campaign and/or the Democrat Party. In fact this list of 41 are responsible for $10.7 million dollars in donations for the 2012 election cycle.

This is cronyism at its worst. Donate to Obama and you become a so called dignitary invited to State Dinners and other official White House functions. This wreaks of the same trash that the Clinton's used while in office where they allowed donors to spend the night in the Lincoln Bedroom if they donated over a certain amount of money to his reelection bid.

Obama is the ultimate hypocrite. He whined about cronyism during the campaign but practices it blatantly at every opportunity. Yet when given the chance he will lecture against it showing his continual don't do as I do but do as I say arrogance. While Americans struggle to survive under the disaster that is the Obama economy that HE is responsible for, all you need do is be one of the rich he vilifies at every opportunity and donate to him and he is not only your best buddy, but he treats you to a tax payer funded State Dinner. Obama is a class act minus the C and the L!

SANTORUM BIG DAY BUT DELEGATES EVENLY SPLIT

Registering a win during any Primary this year doesn't necessarily mean that delegates will flow into any particular candidates column. Rick Santorum by the percentages squeaked by Newt Gingrich in both Mississippi and Alabama Primaries but the delegate count was basically an even split for all three candidates.

According to the AP, which previously has been assigning delegates according to assumptions but in this case the delegate count of both states is pretty cut and dried the count is a pretty even split. The official RNC totals will not be available for a few days as all Congressional Districts must be verified but again this time though the count should be similar to the AP totals for the day only.

Alabama had 37 delegates up for grabs in Tuesday's Primary and Santroum should receive 19 with Gingrich and Romney receiving 9 each. Mississippi's had 47 on the block with Santorum and Romney receiving 13 each and Gingrich with 12 with the remaining still unpledged. Once again the proportional system awards delegates according to how each placed in specific Congressional Districts which explains why though with a higher percentage of the vote Gingrich received 1 less delegate than the third place finish of Romney in Mississippi.

Even with the current totals, again the official RNC totals may differ somewhat from those shown by AP there is still no clear indication as to which candidate has the advantage for the nomination. Remember the official RNC total before Tuesday's Primaries had Gingrich in second with 16 more delegates than Santorum's 95 while AP had him at 217 and Romney at 325 as opposed to AP's 454. So until the official RNC count is made public it will not be known exactly how this will affect the path to the nomination.

Many fear this going all the way to the Convention believing that it will take the focus off of Obama and give him an advantage. Don't forget two things. In 1980 Reagan did not get the needed 1144 until the end of May and the Convention was the final deciding factor and he destroyed Carter. Also most voters do not pay much attention to a Presidential election until the final two months before the November General Election. So deciding a candidate at the end of August will not hurt the GOP chance in defeating Obama.

Additionally the price of gas is not going down but will continue to rise as will unemployment both of which will are major thorns in the side of Obama's campaign going into November. His continued failure with the economy will also only worsen as November approaches and these will be deciding factors for the majority of voters not how the nomination came about nor what was said in the months preceding that nomination. This is far from over and the fat lady isn't even getting dressed to sing much less warming her voice up.

BARACK OBAMA NOT ASSURED REELECTION, DON'T BELIEVE THE LIES

It has become an almost daily spin from pundits to many even in the Republican establishment that the reelection of Barack Obama is an inevitable foregone conclusion and that no matter who the GOP nominee is nor how bad the polls, the economy and how high unemployment is that Obama will be reelected.

DON'T FALL FOR THE SPIN AND THE LIE! No election is inevitable and that includes Barack Obama. Let's look at the facts. As a President he is a absolute failure. No matter how he or the DNC, his Hollywood buddies or the liberal media spin it Obama has taken this Nation down a path never intended by our Founders and his game plan of continuing to blame the previous administration for the condition of our country no longer plays to the voters and in itself is yet another lie.

Sure Obama inherited many problems but he took what was not the best of situations and multiplied its severity 100 fold from exploding the deficit and debt to increasing the size and scope of government more than ALL of his predecessors combined. He has spent his entire term of office apologizing for our country telling friend and foe alike that America is the root of all the worlds problems.

He has the lowest approval ratings at this point in an administration since polling began in 1947. He has been the most divisive President in our history playing class and race warfare blatantly causing a divide in this country that DID NOT exist in the manner that it now does before he took office.

He has appeased every enemy of The United States and emboldened those enemies to believe they can do whatever they wish without any worry as to whether the most powerful Nation on Earth will stand it their way or even defend itself from their deliberate acts of wanton violence and stand against our people and country.

No President has EVER been reelected with unemployment above 7% and even Obama's own economic team has admitted it will remain above 8% until well into 2013. His, "stimulus," plans rehashed many times over have cost America millions of jobs and put millions of hard working citizens out of work many unable to find work and just plain giving up on the non existent jobs market created by Obama.

Energy prices have sored since he took office and though he spins his feigned concern over the cost has done absolutely NOTHING to quell the high cost whether at the pump or at home but rather increased cost across the board by pushing his alternative energy agenda as the only means to combat ths cost fully knowing that NONE of it will be viable until decades down the road.

He has forked billions of dollars which have been wasted on companies that fit his energy agenda only to see them bankrupt after hard working tax payer money has been thrown away on companies that were known to be in financial trouble BEFORE the money was allocated by the Obama administration.

The media, pundits and yes even the GOP establishment would like voters to believe that Obama will have a billion dollar war chest that will be impossible to beat when it comes to spending on the campaign trail. If that were true then why does he spend most of his time raising money if it was actually flowing in as much as is being portrayed.

Also why would he inform both Pelosi in the House and Reid in the Senate that a sitting incumbent President running for reelection will ONLY have one fund raiser for each chamber of Congress because he is having to spend so much time raising funds for his own reelection he has no time to spend campaigning or fund raising for the under tickets. This is a sure sign that his campaign is struggling.

Obama is extremely vulnerable and it seems that he is the only one who actually knows it as he is spending almost all of his time campaigning. Every stop whether an actual campaign visit or official Presidential visit is nothing more than another in a long line of Obama campaign appearances which have been non stop since he took office.

None of this are the actions of an unbeatable candidate whether an incumbent President or any other office seeking reelection. The unbeatable Obama is a MYTH that is being forced down our throats by a campaign that KNOWS it is vulnerable and not popular with voters. The plan is to convince voters that Obama is so unbeatable that they will see it as a moot point and not show up at the polls in November because after all, what's the use since he's going to win anyway.

My fellow conservatives and voters who do not want this absolute failure and danger to our country for a second term, DON'T BUY INTO THE LIE! Obama is not inevitable. He is very vulnerable and struggling in his reelection bid. We can and will beat this usurper who spits on the Constitution with just about every action he takes in the office he currently holds. All we need do is show up and vote and we the vast majority who want him out will do just that. Boot this embarrassment and failure out of The White House and fire his miserable self for the disaster he is responsible for.

BARACK OBAMA PROFESSIONAL FUND RAISER AT TAX PAYER EXPENSE

101, a number that doesn't mean much to most Americans until it is placed in some sort of context. 101, the number of fundraisers that Barack Obama has conducted at tax payer expense for his reelection bid. 101, the number of times he has boarded Air Force One as of March 8, 2012 to fly all over the country and Puerto Rico to raise money for his reelection, none of which involved any official duty of the Presidency yet used official Presidential staff, transportation and lodging.

Yes all Presidents have used the office and perks to fund raise during a reelection bid but Obama spends more time fund raising than being President. Now in some respects this is a good thing because it is that much less time for him to continue to destroy our country. But, I as a tax payer am disgusted that my tax money is used to support his fund raising efforts especially since I don't want him to be reelected.

Now how does Obama's 101 compare to President Bush as of March 8 of 2006 when he was running for reelection? At this same point in his term Bush had attended 51 fund raisers for his reelection bid with the majority being in Washington and not requiring travel except by Presidential limo. That's half the number of Barack Obama.

Let's go back even further to see what Bill Clinton did during his reelection year of 1996. Clinton attended even less that Bush with a total of only 33 as of March 8, 1996 in his bid for reelection. One third of the Obama total. In fact if you combine the Bush and Clinton totals both former Presidents attended 84 fund raisers or 17 LESS than the professional fund raiser Barack Obama.

When asked about this ridiculously large amount of fund raisers, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney passed the blame on to The Supreme Court stating that Obama had to spend more time fund raising since the high court said that Super Pacs could continue to be used during Presidential campaigns and Republicans had many Super Pacs. Of course Carney neglected to mention Obama's Super Pacs, but then it would have made his lame argument seem even more asinine than it was.

So even without supporting Obama we who are tax paying Americans and want this yo yo out of office are being forced to help pay for his reelection in the amount of jet fuel, motor vehicle fuel, lodging and entertainment it takes to allow this professional fund raiser to trip the lights fantastic schmoozing the fat cats and partying with donors who are stupid enough to help reelect this absolute failure and disgrace to the honored Office of President of the United States.

OBAMA DEFEAT MUST BE ON ISSUES AND NOT BIRTH CERTIFICATE

I have avoided the Obama birth certificate issue for many reasons but because of the investigation of Sheriff Joe Arpaio and his legitimate finding that the live birth certificate was a forgery and calls for Congressional investigation I will now put my two cents in. I have never believed Obama to be Kenyan born. But do believe his father was a British citizen and his mother too young to meet the requirement of 21, (the law changed in 1982 to age 18 but when Obama was born in 1961 it was 21), for her citizenship to be passed on to her son making him a naturalized citizen.

I also understand that with him in office the truth will never come to light just as was the case with Chester A. Arthur when he took office after Garfield was assassinated. Arthur was born in Vermont to a British father and a mother under 21 whose age would not legally allow her citizenship to pass on to her son. After he took office his records were sealed for 40 years because of the legal nightmare it would cause as a sitting President.

I believe the truth about Obama will be hidden until well after he leaves office because if it were proved now and he found to be ineligible EVERY act, bill, treaty, order, etc he has signed or done since January 09 would be null and void and as such cause a literal collapse of our government. This is why he should have been vetted BEFORE elected and why ALL candidates should be completely vetted and their past not ignored as Obama's was.

With the release of the Andrew Brietbart tapes, (which I watched and did not see as the big smoking gun they were said to be), it is obvious that there is finally a move to vet Obama unlike was the case before he was elected. The problem now is it is closing the barn door after the horse has run out. That fact that unfortunately he is President means the office itself will protect him from removal over his radical past that was hidden during the campaign and his possible and yes what I believe likely naturalized citizenship status will not remove him nor will it cause much more than a bump in the road to his reelection bid except to those who pay extremely close attention to politics.

Obama must go, to this I agree and to this end I will continue to fight as a citizen who understands and knows the absolute danger he is to out country our people and our way of life. But bringing up those things from his past and his birth certificate once again though legitimate issues, will do nothing but hurt our ability to get him out of office as the media and the left will use them to take the focus off the issue of his failure in office, the failed Obama economy, the Obama unemployment picture and his dangerous foreign policy.

He can and must be defeated and we need to set aside the what most believe to be fringe issues and fight his reelection on the issues that the great majority of voters will actually pay attention to and the media will not use as a means of distracting from Obama's failure. We have more than enough ammunition to defeat him without rehashing issues that unfortunately most were not interested in, in 2008 and will not be interested in now. Let's defeat him on the merits of his failure and leave the lies of his past and his citizenship to history and the lessening of his legacy and concentrate on what will boot him out by our vote and not on what will fail to remove him and rally defenders.

SUPER TUESDAY, NEWT REBOUNDS, SANTORUM STAYS TOUGH, ROMNEY BIG LOSER

The GOP race for the 2012 nomination has not only proven there is no clear front runner but Super Tuesday has once again shown that Republican voters do not want Mitt Romney as the nominee as the former Massachusetts Governor while winning his home state and Vermont was the clear loser tonight.

The only real winner per say was Newt Gingrich who soundly and as expected won the Georgia Primary and as a result the majority of the 76 delegates up for grabs the largest total of the night. In fact his totals both state wide and by each district were enough to give the former Speaker nearly all of the delegates from the Peach State with Mitt Romney taking only a handful. The single largest state total of the night.

Many states including Romney's home state of Massachusetts did not assign any delegates. AP and other news outlets will make the assumption as they have been over the past month as to how they believe the non binding delegates will be assigned but the official RNC count will show that these non binding states are not counted in the actual delegate totals.

The remainder of the Super Tuesday States, Ohio, Oklahoma and Tennessee while showing a particular candidate either, "winning," the state or a virtual tie as it seems Ohio will be as of this writing, will proportion delegates splitting them between each candidate in accordance to how they placed in state Congressional Districts. The candidate that won the district will receive two of the three delegates with the second place finisher receiving the third. This applies to ALL of the states which results in a very split allocation of Super Tuesday delegates except in Georgia where Newt won overwhelmingly.

Rick Santorum had a good night winning several delegates but more importantly continuing his status as a surging candidate who is an alternative to the now seemingly unpopular Romney. Newt rebounded enough that he cannot be counted out as several Southern States will hold Primaries soon and the big prize Texas coming in June which clearly is Newt country.

The only state among the entire fifty that is an absolute winner takes all state is California which could go to Ron Paul as many of his more liberal social ideas and weak foreign policy plans play well to the more liberal Republicans on the left coast. Those that aren't are conservative enough to give Newt a slight chance in California.

Many thought Super Tuesday would decide the nominee and the GOP establishment fully expected Romney to come out a clear winner. The establishment I am sure is scratching their head trying to figure out what to do since their fair haired, (literally), candidate is proving to be a non winner with rank and file Republicans.

The nomination is still up for grabs to all three candidates but Romney is clearly damaged goods after such a poor showing especially in Ohio, Tennessee and Oklahoma. Santorum stays steady and Newt is back in the game. This nomination is looking more likely to head to the Convention before being decided where delegates are only required to vote in accordance to their assigned candidate on the first ballot only. Then a free for all will ensue with the candidate who can best campaign for votes among Convention delegates taking the nomination.

So to quote Yogi Berra, "it ain't over 'till it's over." And fellow patriots this race for the GOP nomination is far from over with a long road ahead until August and the Republican Convention in Tampa, Florida.

BENJAMIN NETANYAHU - ISRAEL MUST BE THE MASTER OF ITS OWN FATE


While Barack Obama expresses a great deal of weakness in relation to Israel and especially in taking a strong stand against Iran and the likelihood that this terrorist state will have a nuclear weapon before this year is over, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expresses strength and an unbending willingness to do whatever is necessary to protect Israel and prevent Iran from being a nuclear power.

Iran is using the continued delay tactic of useless sanctions and weak rhetoric from the Obama administration to finish its quest for a nuclear weapon. Netanyahu understands this and as such informs Obama that regardless of his continued demand that Israel shrink its borders and stand down from protecting herself in a region in which she is surrounded by enemies, the Israeli Prime Minister says that Israel must be the master of its own fate and as such will defend herself with or without Obama's agreement.

This is the stance that a strong leader takes. No apologies, no weakness and no holds barred when it comes to defending his country. That is a true leader and a leader who will protect his Nation when the time comes. Obama was taken to school once again by Netanyahu and if he had any sense would listen and learn about what it takes to truly lead a Nation. But of course Obama is NOT a leader and as such when seeing true leadership does not know what to make of it.

OBAMA STATE BY STATE APPROVAL RATINGS PREDICT A LANDSLIDE LOSS


Gallup has released it's State by State Presidential approval ratings as they relate to the 2012 General Election and it is not good news for Barack Obama but GREAT news for our Nation.

As the above graphic shows Obama will lose and lose big winning only 15 States and 215 Electoral Votes as compared to a GOP candidate winning 35 States and 323 Electoral Votes or well above the 270 needed to win the Presidency. At this point in his Presidency Obama has the lowest national and state by state approval numbers than any President since polling began in 1947.

With numbers like this it is very puzzling how the establishment Republicans still buy into the idea that Obama cannot be defeated and as such are basically willing to surrender the Presidency and focus ONLY on Congressional races in both Houses. With numbers like those shown above it is likely that as the economy continues to tank under Obama's failed policy and his foreign policy disasters continue to show their ugly face victory in both the House and the Senate should be very possible without surrendering the Presidency as the establishment seems to believe.

What these establishment types refuse to admit is that even with GOP control of both Houses of Congress Obama has already indicated that if he does not get his way he will use any and all means at his disposal to bypass Congress and implement all of his socialist agenda through the Executive Order creating a form of tyranny never known in our country and completely ignoring the Constitutional principles especially the separation of powers which our Founders established to prevent the very tyrannical Presidency that Obama plans if he gets a second term.

Obama is the most dangerous occupant of The White House since the birth of our Nation and with a second term not having the need to face voters again he will run the Executive Branch unfettered, even more unconstitutional and through a power grab finish the destruction he has brought through the first three years of his failed and un-American Presidency.

OBAMA'S PLAN - HIGHER GAS PRICES FOR AMERICA


Over the past several days as gas prices at the pump have been racing toward a National average of $4 dollars a gallon, Barack Obama has been saying that he will do anything necessary to help lower the price at the pump. This is an absolute LIE on the part of Obama. It has been his plan since before he took office to gradually force our gas prices to levels that match Europe as well as levels that in his twisted mind would force Americans to bow to his vision of electric cars no one wants and a reduced life style for our people who are enslaved to government dependency resulting from the inability to afford increasing energy prices.

During his campaign for The White House as shown in the video above Obama repeatedly stated that higher energy and specifically gas prices was a goal and he is fulfilling his goal of a gradual rise at the pump. His Energy Secretary stated in a Congressional hearing that he was not concerned about rising gas prices which again confirms that he is following Obama policy for higher prices.

While publicly stating that he would do anything to help lower prices to attempt to dupe voters into thinking he actually cares during an election year, Obama has been doing just the opposite by increasing taxes to oil companies which like any other business whose taxes are increased pass the increase on to consumers in higher prices. ANY business is in business to succeed and profit, increasing taxes on a business even oil companies only hampers business and hurts consumers pocket books as prices increase.

Additionally he has ended all oil subsidies which again increases prices at the pump. His bogus moratorium on Gulf oil drilling succeeded in doing exactly what he set out to do, end drilling in the Gulf. While he quickly promoted his, "compassionate," easing of the moratorium due to the tens of thousands of oil workers in the Gulf region it put our of work, it was NEVER reported that due to the moratorium the drilling vessels had moved on in order to keep working and as a result are no longer available which still has NO drilling in the GULF and a decrease of our domestic oil supply by about 30%.

Obama has been at war with oil companies since well before his election and uses his office as a means of waging this war. All at the expense of tax paying Americans who are now suffering ridiculously high gas prices due to a President who could care less about how it affects our citizens, our economy and our way of life. As long as his green energy intitatives are forced upon us and he can continue to throw money away at green companies that continue to go bankrupt Obama will be content while his policy bankrupts America and Americans.

OBAMA KORAN APOLOGY APPEASEMENT

When the news that military personnel in Afghanistan destroyed Korans taken from prisoners being held at detention sights in the country, the immediate response from Barack Obama, his Defense Secretary and others within his administration was to grovel before the world and apologize for the destruction. Not once was anything said concerning the circumstances surrounding the destruction of the Korans nor the fact that our soldiers are being killed in combat while defeating a common enemy of both The United States and Afghanistan.

According to Islamic law the Koran cannot be defiled in any way including writing in the Islamic holy book. It has been learned that EVERY Koran destroyed had already been, "defiled," by those who had them in their possession as they were used as writing tablets to make notes about possible terrorist attacks against our soldiers and at many locations throughout the world. Islamic law calls for any Koran defiled as these were to be destroyed and those defiling the book punished.

Additionally the Korans were being used as a means of planning attacks against our soldiers and civilians and as such were a credible threat which required destruction for the defense of our soldiers and their ongoing mission in Afghanistan. Of course none of this was made public before Obama made his apology since this is what he does best and the apology fit with his usual appeasement foreign policy.

Now Obama claims that his apology calmed reaction by Muslims in Afghanistan. I guess he has not watched any television since this event took place as riots and violence has been a daily occurrence even after the appeaser apology. So his claim that he quelled the reaction is as bogus as his ability to be President.

My first thought when I heard this was, "how did the fact that the Korans were destroyed become public knowledge in the first place?" This would be my first concern if I were CIC. But not Obama his first and only concern was to once again apologize for America and appease. This method has been the center piece of his foreign policy since day one so why should we expect anything different. He has once again displayed weakness to the world and emboldened our enemies at the expense of our country and those who bravely serve defending her especially in Afghanistan.
