According to CNS News the national debt has risen by $5 trillion in the three-and-a-half years since Obama's Democrat controlled Senate last passed a budget on April 29, 2009. In fact, in 2011 and 2012 the Senate never even drafted a budget resolution.
The Dems cancelled a planned budget drafting hearing earlier this year, saying that the issue was better left until after the election. WTF!!!
Is it any wonder that our country is in such economic turmoil! Anyone who would vote to keep this a$$hole in office for another four years IS A FOOL!

FOUR SIMPLE QUESTIONS OBAMA WON'T ANSWER
House Armed Services Chairman Buck McKeon (R-Calif.) has sent a letter to Obama demanding that he reveal exactly whom he ordered to do what on the day of the Benghazi attack.
McKeon than listed four questions he is demanding that Obama answer:
1) “To whom did you issue this first directive and how was this directive communicated to the military and other agencies--verbally or in writing?“
2) "At any time on September 11, 2012, did you specifically direct the military to move available assets into Libya to ensure the safety of U.S. personnel in Benghazi? If so, which assets did you order to Libya?
3) "At any time on September 11, 2012, other than ISR assets, did you provide the authority for the military to take any and all necessary measures to secure U.S. personnel, including specifically the authority to enter Libyan airspace?
4) "Did you have any communication with the Secretary of Defense, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, or any Commanders of regional Combatant Commands regarding military support to U.S. personnel in Benghazi on September 11th? If so could you please describe any recommendations provided to you regarding available military support and any orders you gave them?"
Why won't Obama answer these FOUR SIMPLE QUESTIONS given his stated interest in transparency and sharing all relevant information with the American people and the families of our fallen????

WHY WOULD OBAMA AND BIDEN STAND BY AND ALLOW FOR AMERICANS TO DIE?
(Excerpted from Mark Steyn's column in National Review Online)
Why would Obama and Biden do such a thing?
Because to launch a military operation against an al-Qaeda affiliate on the anniversary of 9/11 would have exposed the hollowness of their boast through convention week and the days thereafter — that Osama was dead and al-Qaeda was finished. And so Ty Woods, Glen Doherty, Sean Smith, and Chris Stevens were left to die, and a decision taken to blame an entirely irrelevant video and, as Secretary Clinton threatened, “have that person arrested.” And, in the weeks that followed, the government of the United States lied to its own citizens as thoroughly and energetically as any totalitarian state, complete with the midnight knock on the door from not-so-secret policemen sent to haul the designated fall-guy into custody.
When the president and other prominent officials stand by as four Americans die and then abuse their sacrifice as contemptuously as this administration did, decency requires that they be voted out of office as an act of urgent political hygiene.
At the photo-op staged for the returning caskets, Obama et al. seem to have been too focused on their campaign needs to observe even the minimal courtesies. Charles Woods says that at the ceremony Joe Biden strolled over to him and by way of condolence said in a “loud and boisterous” voice, “Did your son always have balls the size of cue balls?” One assumes charitably that the vice president is acknowledging in his own inept and blundering way the remarkable courage of a man called upon to die for his country on some worthless sod halfway across the planet. But the near-parodic locker-room coarseness is grotesque both in its inaptness and in its lack of basic human feeling for a bereaved family forced to grieve in public and as crowd-scene extras to the political bigshot. Just about the only formal responsibility a vice president has is to attend funerals without embarrassing his country. And this preening buffoon of pseudo-blue-collar faux-machismo couldn’t even manage that.
But a funny thing happened over the next six weeks: Obama’s own cue balls shriveled. Biden had offered up a deft campaign slogan encompassing both domestic and foreign policy: “Osama’s dead and General Motors is alive.” But, as the al-Qaeda connections to Benghazi dribbled out leak by leak, the “Osama’s dead” became a problematic boast and, left to stand alone, the General Motors line was even less credible. Avoiding the economy and foreign affairs, Obama fell back on Big Bird, and binders, and bayonets, just to name the “B”s in his bonnet. At the second presidential debate, he name-checked Planned Parenthood, the General Motors of the American abortion industry, half a dozen times, desperate to preserve his so-called gender gap. Yet oddly enough, the more furiously Obama and Biden have waved their binders and talked up Sandra Fluke, the more his supposed lead among women has withered away. So now he needs to enthuse the young, who turned out in such numbers for him last time. Hence, the official campaign video (plagiarized from Vladimir Putin of all people) explaining that voting for Obama is like having sex. The saddest thing about that claim is that, for liberals, it may well be true.
Both videos — the one faking Obamagasm and the one faking a Benghazi pretext — exemplify the wretched shrinkage that befalls those unable to conceive of anything except in the most self-servingly political terms. Both, in different ways, exemplify why Obama and Biden are unfit for office. One video testifies to a horrible murderous lie at the heart of a head of state’s most solemn responsibility, the other to the glib shallow narcissism of a pop-culture presidency, right down to the numbing relentless peer pressure: C’mon, all the cool kids are doing it; why be the last hold-out?
If voting for Obama is like the first time you have sex, it’s very difficult to lose your virginity twice. A flailing, pitiful campaign has now adopted Queen Victoria’s supposed wedding advice to her daughter: “Lie back and think of England.” Lie back and think of America. And then get up and get dressed. Who wants to sleep with a $16 trillion broke loser twice?
OBAMA WENT TO BED...AND FOUR AMERICANS ARE DEAD!

AMERICANS WANT THE TRUTH --- NOT LIES BEFORE THE ELECTION!
During last weeks Town Hall debate, CNN's Candy Crowley validated Barack Obama's lie that he did call the September 11 attack on our consulate in Benghazi, Libya "an act of terror" just one day later.
That is a lie!!!
What Obama did say on September 12 was: "No acts of terror will ever shake the resolve of this great nation."
Unfortunately, Crowley's blatant defense of Obama and primetime admonishment of Mitt Romney in front of tens of millions of television viewers gave the appearance that it was Romney who was in the wrong -- not Obama.
The truth is, five weeks after the deadly attack on U.S. soil that killed four Americans, Obama has yet to publicly declare that it was indeed a terror attack against the U.S. by Islamic extremists!
What happened on that Tuesday night underscores the need for an immediate and full investigation into what is a cover-up -- not just by the White House, but by the liberal media as well!
Journalistic integrity and honesty no longer matter where Obama is concerned. Getting to the truth about what happened in Libya and who was responsible for the slaughter of four Americans threatens Obama's re-election chances, and therefore, it must be twisted and distorted by the media to mislead and misdirect the American people.
As Rudy Giuliani said, they are "running out the clock" until after the election. Then we will have an investigation.
Americans want the truth, not lies -- BEFORE THE ELECTION!

Black Anger in Chicago at Obama: “He Done Did It. He Ruined It for Us. White People Don’t Feel Guilty No More and Won’t Do Stuff for Us Now”
“He Done Did It. He Ruined It for Us.
White People Don’t Feel Guilty No More and Won’t Do Stuff for Us Now”
Check out this article from AMERICAN RENAISSANCE posted on October 15, 2022

Kevin DuJan, HillBuzz, October 8, 2012
Here in Chicago, I regularly meet with a group of friends who call themselves “The Think Squad”; these are men and women who are prominent members of the black community in Hyde Park and the City’s south side. None of them supported Barack Obama’s presidential bid in 2008 but most begrudgingly voted for him because they freely admit race-pride was their motivating factor. These people knew Obama when he was a state senator and saw him do absolutely nothing for blacks in Chicago back then . . . and they similarly saw Obama do nothing for blacks (or any of his constituents in general) as a United States Senator. The Think Squad has always seen through Obama and continues to speak out about his failings. Expect them, and other blacks coast to coast, to become even more vocal about the “magical first black president” after he loses in November and the anger of “how much that punk wasted” really comes to a boil and people no longer feel intimidated or threatened when the Obamas have left the White House for Hawaii next January. That’s when people will REALLY let it all fly, once the Obamas are no longer even a vestigial presence in Chicago and people have no fear at all in talking about what a sham their marriage is and how the two of them benefited from affirmative action and white guilt their entire lives.
The problem for blacks in Chicago is that the Obamas have actually ruined that white guilt for “the rest of us,” as the Think Squad put it last night at an impromptu after-church-programs dinner I enjoyed with some of the more outspoken “Thinkers” in a little Mexican restaurant near the south side. I try to go to as many of these events as I’m invited to because I always learn something new about how much many blacks actually detest Barack Obama, despite the fact that 95% of black voters are still going to cast their ballots for him in November. “Look, you just have to understand that if there’s a chance to vote for someone who looks like us on a ticket, especially for president, we ain’t gonna vote for no Romney. You put Allen West on a ticket some time and you’ll have blacks forgetting they were ever Democrat. Put that Mia Love on a ticket and watch blacks go nuts for her as VP or something in the future. Democrat Party “Who?” they will say because if you look at the skin and it looks like yours that’s just how you vote. This is the truth. Am I lying?” one older Thinker asked the table.
As we waited for our food to arrive most Thinkers enjoyed their margaritas and I sipped on my Coke while we talked about how consensus in the black community is that “white guilt has been all used up” and that “they were fools to put all the eggs in one basket with Obama.” I’ve never been clear on who “they” is in a sentence like that and the Thinkers were pretty torn on it themselves. “They” could be Democrats, who decided they wanted to run the first viable black presidential candidate in 2008 and that person should be Obama (and not Harold Ford Jr., whom the Clintons were actually grooming for years to fill that niche in the future but who ruined his chances for national office by marrying a blonde white woman instead of a black wife “like a Michelle” who’d be described by someone like Snoop Dog as “having a big a***”).
“Harold Ford Junior, or should I say Harold Ford LOSER was a damn fool. He could have been president some day but he married that white woman. You don’t marry a white woman, especially not a blonde, because you lose black voters that way. Black women hate black men that marry white women and they hate those white b****** for stealing our black men”, interjected a grandmother to my right in a gorgeous gray shawl and funky thick-framed glasses.
The subject of “using up all the white guilt” is an interesting one that dominated a large part of the conversation as we ate our meal. Speaking openly about this, the Think Squad told me in no uncertain terms that for decades black people have counted on white guilt to “get stuff, whatever we wanted” and that if the government or a corporation or whatever wouldn’t give in to demands from blacks they’d “just scream racism until everyone got scared and gave up.”
“They’d give up pretty easy too, actually. It was a game people played. You wanted something and you just had to time it right. The City especially would race to get you whatever you asked for if they thought Jesse would show up with his guys and scream and yell about racism if Daley didn’t give them what they wanted,” a Thinker told me about how easy it was for blacks to manipulate the system in Chicago by using threats of “RACISM!” cries to essentially extort Mayor Daley for concessions.
I learned that “white guilt” was a finite resource for blacks that many people believe has now been depleted during the Obama presidency. This is something that causes EXTREME anger in black ranks because “Obama didn’t care about what happens to everyone after he’s gone and living in that big house in Hawaii they bought for him”. That’s a reference to the $35 million “retirement estate” that wealthy Chicagoans like Penny Pritzker are working to purchase for the Obamas for occupancy come January 2013 when they are forced to move out of Washington.
“That’s all good for Barack and Michelle, but what happens to the rest of us? We ain’t getting squat from any of this. Worse, we don’t get to exploit the white guilt any more because that’s not there these days. It’s all gone. He done did it. He ruined it for us. White people don’t feel guilty no more and won’t do stuff for us now that they used to do so fast you wouldn’t believe it”, a Thinker in a bright, pretty pink blouse offered. “All of it is gone. They used it all up to elect him and to scream at anyone who said boo to him in the last four years. White people got used to being called racist all the time and aren’t scared about it anymore. I have no idea how I’m going to get funding for my programs now because I always counted on white people being too scared to say no to anything we needed at work. This is a disaster for the black community and it’s all because they put all the eggs in his basket and he f***ed it all up.”
It might be strange for you to imagine a very nice group of black professionals openly longing for the days when they could use white guilt as a bargaining chip to get things they wanted or needed, but this is just how things worked in the black community for the last forty years and everyone knew it.
Don’t even think about how cities are extorted by black “community leaders” with threats of accusing the City of being racist…or how big corporations have been shaken down for years by the combined antics of Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and Henry Gates (the Justice Brothers)…but think about your own personal interactions with a lot of black people at work who have casually played cards like this against you or the big boss in the past. For many years, a lot of white people have been afraid to challenge black coworkers on anything because they were scared the black person would cry “RACISM!”. False accusations of racism have been the go-to defense for bad performance reviews and explanations for workplace conflict because collectively white people have been so scared out of their minds of being labeled a “racist” that they in many cases just went along with whatever the black person wanted to avoid that conflict.
“That’s just when you say, “Oh, is this because I am black?” and then people go running like it’s a fire drill to do whatever you want. It’s funny. But, this doesn’t work as much anymore and it’s because of Barack”, Pretty Pink Blouse admitted. “I think he ruined it for good. I mean, there’s been a black president. Most white people voted for him. They think they’ve done enough and aren’t afraid anymore”.
“You know how people on TV would say “I have black friends” and that was the thing they’d spit out when someone called them a racist? Well the new thing to say now is ‘I voted for Obama’ and that proves you are not a racist. Ain’t nobody saying they have black friends now. It is all ‘I voted for Obama’ and that is proof you aren’t a racist. People aren’t scared anymore.”
White people are about as scared of false accusations of racism as they are of rubber Halloween spiders.
This applies to the diminished power of the Justice Brothers…but also to rank and file blacks on the ground in cities like Chicago who are realizing that their bosses are no longer afraid of being called racists if they don’t give blacks promotions they didn’t really earn or breaks they don’t deserve when they’ve done something wrong.
It is a whole new ballgame, because Democrats exhausted the national reserve of white guilt to elect Barack Obama and to eviscerate his critics for the last four years. There is just no more white guilt left for blacks to keep using the way they always have and that has created palpable anger on the ground.
Yes, 95% of blacks who head to the polls to vote will be voting for Obama in four weeks because his skin looks like theirs and race-pride is an emotional pull that just can’t be overcome.
“This is a big deal. Ain’t nobody talking about it. But it’s real. He’s in big trouble over this, but sadly we’re all in trouble too”, I remember one Thinker telling me as we were leaving the restaurant and saying goodbye last night. ”I don’t know what we’re going to do now that white people aren’t scared of us any more. A lot of people are going to have to fend for themselves and it ain’t gonna be pretty. The magic’s all gone because they used it all up. And what did we get out of it? Nothing. Not a damn thing”.

WERE UNEMPLOYMENT NUMBERS MANIPULATED? WHO WOULD DO SUCH A THING???
The U-3 unemployment rate is the official number used as our unemployment rate, but it does not take into account part-time workers who want full-time work and discouraged workers who’ve given up looking. If you actually count these people in order to calculate an unemployment rate, this is called the U-6 unemployment rate. For September, the U-6 unemployment rate is 14.7%. Interestingly enough, this number remains unchanged from the previous month. So it defies common sense that the U-3 rate could drop from 8.1% to 7.8%.
The Obama regime decided that unemployment data would be collected and analyzed by the federal government instead of the states as it always had been before Obummer got elected? Could this be why? YOU DECIDE!

OBAMA PLOTS ANOTHER WAY TO BREAK THE LAW AND SCREW TAXPAYERS INTO PAYING FOR IT.
The Reader’s Digest reported that the Obama administration is trying to pull another unreported tactic to screw taxpayers into help pay for his re-election.. Because of sequestration cuts taking effect in 2013, many businesses that have government contracts (particularly those with defense contracts) were going to have to lay off workers as a result. Now there is a law in place called the WARN Act, which requires that businesses which intended to do large layoffs must, by law, give their employees 60 days notice before those layoffs are to take effect. Since the layoffs would take effect in January 2013, this means that these layoffs notices would have to go out in the beginning of November. But what also happens in the beginning of November? The presidential election! So the Obama administration saw this coming. They saw the PR disaster just days before the election of thousands of Americans receiving notices that they will be losing their jobs, thanks to a bill signed by the president. So what did the Obama administration do? They told these companies that they could simply ignore the WARN Act, and that there was no need to give these employees 60 days notice.
Well now, the Obama administration has upped the stakes. On Friday, the Obama administration issued guidelines for defense contractors, which said not only would it be “inappropriate” for these companies to issue these notices just days before the election, but that they would be “compensated for legal costs if layoffs occur due to contract cancellations under sequestration — but only if the contractors follow the Labor guidance.”
In other words, the taxpayers will foot the legal costs associated with breaking the law, just to make sure that the president doesn’t look bad just days before the election. I'm sorry, but aside from the Reader’s Digest, I didn't see this little maneuver reported by any of the major media 'journalists.'
