| With a dire fiscal crisis bearing down on the nation and the need for closed-door negotiations and face-saving compromises for squeezed members of Congress never more apparent, President Barack Obama has embarked on yet another political campaign. This time, he is agitating for public support for increased tax rates on the nation’s high-income earners as part of a comprehensive resolution to the fiscal cliff. But higher tax rates is the only policy prescription the president campaigned on in 2012 – if he has any mandate whatsoever from his victory, it is for higher taxes.

Comments: The morons who voted for him have no idea what he´s doing. 0bama sure doesn´t care, that´s very obvious. To him being president consists of one big party and always campaigning. Leadership is completely foreign to that incompetent Marxist.

Frankly, I stopped caring what he says or does during his first campaign.
Our family has created a ´work around´ the problem. We ignore him and his ilk.

ValJar must want him out of the house so that she can continue to run (ruin) the country.

Name one CEO of a Fortune 500 company that employs Obama´s tactics for leadership. You cannot. They have nothing to do with leadership, only with sabotage.

He has to be on the road. Staying in the oval office would mean he may have to make a decision and he is incapable of that. He enjoys traveling and Valerie is there to handle everything.

Did you notice the supernumeraries behind Big Brother when he gave his "I have a pen" speech yesterday?? Two African Americans, possibly one Asian and one Hispanic, the rest Caucasians.
Translation: It´s not just the 47% who are for me.

Key question to keep in mind at all times, where Obama and his Choom Gang-style ´direction´ are concerned:
If you wanted to intentionally destroy the United States of America......
What would you do DIFFERENT?

Unfortunately, we are dealing with an electorate that has been conditioned by 60 years of television and movies to value style over substance. So long as Obama "looks" presidential, and swans around "acting" presidential, they will still look upon him with adolescent ecstasy. Obama doesn´t have to DO anything, except act in his own cheesy ripoff of "The West Wing."
Even if we were invaded tomorrow by debt collectors in the form of the modern successors to the old Chinese Ninth Route Army, the nation would shed a sentimental tear as they saw Obama with his hands up in surrender, and they would call him a "Great President." Oh, and the nation would blame the whole debacle on the REPUBLICANS.

Obama doesn´t just plain doesn´t care because he has been given what he wants. He gets to fly around in a jet and occasionally make a speech that is written for him.

Interesting to me the comments about "ignoring" Obama. I found that that is what I have to do to get on with things. i click off any image, ignore any quote of his and refuse to listen to any so call ´fair and balanced´ arguments between the two parties concerning his latest moves.. The last two French magazines I received in the mail had Obama on the cover, and articles within. I immediately threw them in the trash. He does not exist for me.

We simply are ignorant about the president´s motives. Krauthammer and Thune think the president will be concerned about his legacy and will therefore give in on tax policy. I don´t think he is concerned about anything except the downfall of capitalism and going over the cliff will allow him to make more excutive rules to combat those evil Republicans that caused it.?? He is on TV now urging the citizens to call their congress-people. The people will back his executive orders when the next severe recession occurs. This is how Hitler got elected in Germany.

This latest phase of zippy´s campaign is nothing more than a set-up to blame all of the failures of the next four years on the Republicans fighting with him over the "fiscal cliff". I´m with Ann Coulter - we should let him have his tax increase and let him own the coming disaster.

Oh, I so agree with #9. He doesn´t want the real job, he just likes all the perks and prestige and wants to fly around acting all important and give speeches. He leaves the rest to Valerie. It´s so sad to read the comments because we´re all so disheartened, but I feel the same - it´s not the America I´ve always known and loved to my core. The Dems are destroying it day by day. I can´t watch Obie either, and especially the useful idiots clapping like trained seals who go to his speeches. Sickening.

The morons who voted him in, who have been recently referred to by the Russians as being the illiterate population group in the USA, would use the excuse that because of the racism that Obama faces in the USA, that he is doing "the best that he can" and that is good enough for them.
As that voter group continues to grow by way of runaway mass uncontrolled illegal immigration, and a lot of other factors, we can probably say that we have not seen anything yet in that respect!

Who is the nation? The 47% takers plus the 47% taken and the middle 6 taken in?
The takers will notice when their free "gifts" end and the taken in when obamacare tax hits them personally.
It is still the economy, stupid, but we are living on borrowed money that the takers and taken in have no clue that they personally will ever have to pay anything on.
So i read about the majority of Americans think the government shouldn´t be in the health care business. Where were they on election day? LOL, ya just gotta laugh and go about your own private lives.

He is NOT the one making the decisions, Valerie Jarrett is !
Valerie already came out last month and told everyone that Obie will continue to fly around the country and campaign the next 4 years, that is ALL he knows how to do.
But NO WORRY, Valerie is making ALL the decisions !!!!!!

The DC Rs really are idiots. Obama talks about taxing the super wealthy, and the Rs talk about spending cuts. Who will win that PR war? The Rs had better quickly frame the debate in such a manner that their position, the right one, is seen to benefit the middle class. Is there no one there bright enough to figure this out?

The R´s in DC are just concerned about the money stream to win the next election. The Tea Party is just as dumb as they threaten the congressmen. People seldom vote on logic. Yes, Obama needs to be out smarted, but won´t be by the Congress or the Tea party or the hard liners on the right. They may be right but they will be "dead´ right. Romney and Ryan lost, folks! Learn something! Think ahead!

Obama is basking in the glow of his ever approving propaganda press. Valerie is running the WH -- albeit more obviously now than before. For some bizarre reason Hillary Clinton remains SOS when common decency and professional incompetence demanded her resignation on 9/11/2012. Every single person, legal or illegal, Dem or Independent, who voted once or more for this is responsible.

Obama has something just like Slick Clinton has; they both have a need to be adored. So long as Obama campaigns in the right places he gets his needs met. That´s what the uneducated ill-informed masses voted for. They can´t see beyond their front doors. They can´t see what will happen to the United States and how it will eventually impact them. They want their phones and they want them now.
Meanwhile the ´´slaves´´, those who create this nirvana for the masses, keep on working longer hours, pay more for their necessities and angrily watch the masses spend food stamps and welfare checks on luxuries that the workers can no longer afford. Same goes for those of us who are retired trying to make ends meet. Obama knows he will never be in this situation and has no sympathy, certainly no empathy, for us. He just wants to make sure that ´´his kind´´ gets what he believes is their right, and it delights him to take it from us.

EXCLUSIVE: In the hallowed halls of Columbia University, a nest of ex-cons — who have served time for murder, attempted murder, robbery and assault — hold court on their unique brand of social justice for admiring students enrolled in the school´s social work program, a FoxNews.com investigation has found. The ex-cons work for or with the Criminal Justice Initiative (CJI), co-founded in 2009 by former Weather Underground operative and Columbia adjunct professor Kathy Boudin, who pleaded guilty to felony murder for her role in an infamous 1981 armed robbery that left two police officers and a security guard dead.

On Rush Limbaugh’s radio show this afternoon, Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, denounced the Gang of Eight immigration reform bill, encouraging his audience to call their member of Congress to oppose the bill. Cruz noted there were about 20 Republican Senators that were on the fence about voting for the bill, but that he believed that it was “politically foolish” and “terrible for the country.” “It doesn’t fix the problem,” Cruz said. “We need to fix the problem, secure the borders and improve legal immigration.” Cruz dismissed the Congressional Budget Office report showing that the bill would actually decrease federal

Parliamentarian Clare Daly said her country´s government had showcased the country “as a nation of pimps, prostituting ourselves in return for a pat on the head,” The Irish Times reports.

Perelman, 70, has been a political player for decades. He dishes out large campaign checks. He employs a team of lobbyists to patrol the nation’s capital to protect his business interests.

President Obama on Tuesday downplayed Afghan President Hamid Karzai’s decision to suspend talks on a long-term security deal with the U.S. in protest of the launch of formal peace talks with the Taliban. Karzai also pulled out of peace talks with the Taliban the Obama administration agreed to hold in Qatar, which are to begin Thursday. Obama said his administration had always anticipated "difficult negotiations." "We had extensive conversations with President Karzai both before and after the Taliban opened the office in Doha," Obama told reporters at a joint press conference in Berlin with German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

It probably wouldn´t have shocked political observers if Sen. Marco Rubio´s job approval ratings had taken a hit since becoming the Republican face of comprehensive immigration reform earlier this year. But the Florida Republican´s numbers in his home state are actually close to their best ever, according to a new Quinnipiac University poll released on Wednesday, though the senator did get low marks from voters for his handling of both immigration and gun control. Rubio had a job approval rating of 51 percent to 35 percent, the survey of registered voters found.

A group of whistleblowers, including a number of aviation experts, have come forward in a new documentary to claim that the official explanation for the crash of TWA Flight 800 was wrong and a gas tank explosion did not bring down the flight off the coast of Long Island 17 years ago. However, the six whistleblowers, all part of the original investigation team, stopped short of saying the plane was shot down. Flight 800, a Boeing 747, had just taken off from JFK airport with 230 people aboard on July 17, 1996 enroute to Paris when it exploded

They were needed in Benghazi,” said DiGenova, a former U.S. attorney, now with the Washington firm of DiGenova & Toensing.

Amid a steady rise of backlash, Edward Snowden, the 29-year-old former National Security Agency contractor who was the source of a spring of leaks about the agency´s surveillance methods, conducted a live chat on The Guardian´s website Monday morning. Judging from some of the pointed questions he´s been asked and the reaction to newly leaked revelations over the past few days, it´s clear that much of the sympathy and support Snowden had built up for his early exposures is eroding. Many Americans supported his decision to leak information about a pair of National Security Agency surveillance programs, which, he detailed, gathered information

Likening religious schools to segregation--a racist system that forced blacks to attend different schools and use different facilities than whites in the American South--President Barack Obama told a town hall meeting for youth in Belfast, Northern Ireland on Monday that there should not be Catholic and Protestant schools because such schools cause division. "Because issues like segregated schools and housing, lack of jobs and opportunity--symbols of history that are a source of pride for some and pain for others--these are not tangential to peace; they’re essential to it,"

Listening to Barack Obama give his speech in Belfast on Monday, it was hard not to stifle a yawn. I kept waiting for the part when he would say something interesting, but, about three quarters of the way through, realised it wasn’t going to come. Judging from television pictures some of his young audience felt the same, after the initial rush of euphoria of receiving the rock star president in their midst had passed. This is not surprising, for we had already heard this number about the inspirational role of the Northern Ireland peace process and the Emerald Isle’s

Charlie Rose last night asked President Obama his new Syria policy. The president first objected to it being called a new policy. "I´m not sure you can characterize this as a new policy. This is consistent with the policy that I´ve had throughout," he said. Obama then explained the goal is regional stability, and especially in Syria. "Really, what we´re trying to do is take sides against extremists of all sorts and in favor of people who are in favor of moderation, tolerance, representative government, and over the long-term, stability and prosperity for the people of Syria," said Obama.

Marco Rubio. Paul Ryan. The IRS. Illegal immigration. And fraud to the tune of billions.. Now there’s a combustible mix. Let’s start with the IRS, illegal immigration and fraud. We’ll come back in a minute to Senator Rubio and Congressman Ryan. For those who came in late, a year before the IRS scandals burst onto the scene in early May of 2013, an alert investigative reporter for WTHR-Indianapolis (Channel 13), Bob Segall by name, produced a stunning piece of journalism. Segall’s video report is found here and we will quote from his story for the basics.
