Is Obama Headed For A
Mayan Calendar Moment?

Investor´s Business Daily, by Editorial

Sequestration: The president is trying to sow panic over a 2.4% trim in federal spending. But countless Americans have had to cut more from their budgets. Well may they wonder: Why can´t Washington? To hear President Obama tell it, the sky will fall this week and it all will be the Republicans´ fault. He´s on the road trying to scare up outrage over the $85 billion in automatic cuts to federal spending that kick in, barring action from Congress, this Friday. So where is the panic? Despite the administration´s best efforts to produce it, we see none.

Only in the U.S. History books that won´t be read in U.S. schools.

Save your breath.

Obama ain´t headin´ for nothin´ except expensive vacations and God-status among the brain-dead Hollywood left.

And there´s probably at least a few of them living next door.

It´s getting close to revolution time folks. Nobody´s listening to the truth.

The editors think Obama is headed towards jokesville. Whether he is or is not is beside the point. Obama will create ruin and folly regardless.

Fiscal cliff scare came and went with no effect. The tax increase for the wealthy that Obama got was spent in one day toward Sandy Relief with zero dollars going to pay the national debt as Obama promised. Now, he is trying to scare us again with doom and gloom if sequestration happens. Being a civilian working for the government, we are getting ready to be furloughed for a maximum of 22 days for the next six months as part of our share of the 85 billion dollars cut. I am preparing my family to tightened the belt a bit so we can weather the 20 percent pay cut. Call Obama´s bluff, I know I am.

Obama has proven his career choice is that of a community organizer. The Presidency has just given him a bigger platform. He goes out and agitates to his peeps because he doesn´t want compromise. He wants victory and means to get it in any way possible. We have never had a President so openly hostile to the opposing party and its supporters. His only goal is to win and winning means to him the weakening of this country to the point we will be vulnerable fiscally and militarily. He is on a mission and he will not fail.

Obama´s "game plan" here has been previously explained to us, in two short sentences, by his former White House Chief of Staff and the best known graduate of Madame Hubata´s Evanston School of Ballet, Rahm Emanuel..."You never let a serious crisis go to waste. And what I mean by that it´s an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before."

Obama is the ultimate example of affirmative action. Pushed along without any actual positive performance, a mediocre resume, at best. The whole democrat organization is responsible for this disaster of a president.

The Marxists always threaten the most critical of government services will be eliminated (policemen, teachersn etc) while the least critical and bloated services will go untouched (subsidizing art, funding Brazilian alt energy, etc).

Watch how they say this when they preach to us in the next days.

#9, they also threaten the services that impact the public most directly, like closing National Parks. But you´re right - never a cut in the bloated interior of government where it would never be missed by the public and might even improve things. Like how about cutting diversity training seminars and team-building junkets altogether? How many ridiculous "studies" do we fund? We could save a boatload by keeping presidential and FLOTUS vacays to twice a year. Just about anyone could find 87B they would love to pull the plug on.

The public is being totally mislead on these sequestration cuts. There is so much waste in the federal government; why isn´t DHS cutting back on their fusion centers or all the intel analysts - didn´t Obama say he got Obama so the war on terror is over?

We are the only ones paying attention to this, or even know the truth. Our complicit, lousy media has done a good job of only showing this man and his wife in pop culture terms. Unfortunately, most only know that he is cool enough to play golf with Tiger and she´s got good arms and like her new bangs.

6, I think you mean community agitator.

Agitating has been his function ever since (and before) he assumed office. Divide and conquer -- the time-tested recipe used by tyrants. All we need do is read the history of Nazi Germany. And now we have added into the mix a Hispanic population with a literacy rate of 20%. And they vote! And 48% of the population getting government assistance. And he wants to let down the border barriers...why not if it means more ignorant voters for the successors who will carry out the rest of his plan.

The people who are first going to get screwed across the board by all this are federal workers who are being told that they must essentially take a 20% pay cut over the next six months.

No doubt the federal work force is probably about 50% too big, but it has to be like that for the government to get any work done at all, because about 50% of that work force is made up of people who do little or no meaningful work, with the other 50% doing just about all the meaningful work and pulling all the slack.

It has to be like that, because in political Washington, DC the 50% or so of the federal workforce that is useless is generally made up of political favorites, either individually, or in politically favored groups and they are not going anyplace.

With human nature being what it is, once the entire federal workforce has their pay reduced, the Obama crew will be lucky if they get any bureaucratic work done at all in the near future.

Hey, everyone. Look at your paycheck: It´s 2% smaller.

So, did you stop feeding your daughter? Eating? Paying the light bill? What...

You made intelligent choices... and apparently our government can´t do the same. Calls for a change, right?

Obama has some discretion over what gets cut. The Republicans need to hammer this home. Why? Because just like all political dramatists, Obama is going to make cuts to things that hurt the most -- see the release of thousands of illegal immigrants.

It´s also known as extortion.

The GOP can use the fact that he´s making the decisions as to "who", "what", and "where", but they won´t. They simply don´t have the courage to find a soap box and use it.

Hey comment #22 I was wondering if anyone would mention our 2% budget cut. It never occurs to Washington that we are squeezed, that we have to make do. The rapid increase in gas prices also cuts the budget. "Stupid is as stupid does."

Like Global Warming, every financial hiccup will now be blamed by the media on sequester.

The fight is on for the message.

1. Sequester was Obama´s idea.
2. Obama picks and chooses what to cut.
3. Obama´s salary will not be affected.

Pound that incessantly to his dummy followers.

There´s nothing to see here on the sequester. Both parties had their heads up their behinds agreeing to it in the first place. This whole affair is just a walk in the park love pat on budget cutting compared to the real aftershock that IS coming and will come during Obie´s dictatorship, ahem...administration. That will be the complete opposite of the Mayan Calendar moment for the Obiemeister.

An ObamaCare Board
Answerable to No One
Wall Street Journal, by David Rivkin and Elizabeth Foley    Original Article
Posted By: Desert Fox- 6/19/2013 9:55:12 PM     Post Reply
Signs of ObamaCare´s failings mount daily, including soaring insurance costs, looming provider shortages and inadequate insurance exchanges. Yet the law´s most disturbing feature may be the Independent Payment Advisory Board. The IPAB, sometimes called a "death panel," threatens both the Medicare program and the Constitution´s separation of powers. At a time when many Americans have been unsettled by abuses at the Internal Revenue Service and Justice Department, the introduction of a powerful and largely unaccountable board into health care merits special scrutiny. For a vivid illustration of the extent to which life-and-death medical decisions have already been usurped by government bureaucrats,

Disarmament: President Obama has proposed targeting cuts in deployed atomic weapons of up to a third below levels achieved in a 2010 treaty with Russia. He wants a world without nuclear arms — specifically ours. Only a shameless politician could invoke the name of President Kennedy in Berlin to announce the nuclear disarmament of America. When Kennedy proclaimed "Ich bin ein Berliner" in June 1963, it was a statement of solidarity with the free people of West Berlin and a pledge of resistance to the tyranny that surrounded it. It was not an act of

War On Terror: President Obama is practically engineering a silent coup against flawed Afghan President Hamid Karzai, with whom we replaced the Taliban in 2001. He´s copying America´s worst mistake of the Vietnam War. A perfect comparison it may not be, but disturbing similarities exist between the Obama administration´s unfolding abandonment of Afghanistan´s corrupt President Karzai and the Kennedy administration´s betrayal of South Vietnamese President Ngo Dinh Diem 50 years ago. Karzai on Wednesday backed out of impending talks with the Taliban after the U.S. announced its diplomats will negotiate directly with the country´s bloodthirsty former rulers.

President Obama insists his policies are driven by a "common sense" approach. He also speaks in terms of "we the people" and "the government is us." Such declarations are reminiscent of old Soviet posters displayed for all to see: "ALL POWER BELONGS TO THE PEOPLE" and "PEOPLE AND COMMUNIST PARTY ARE ONE." But the real power in the USSR was in the hands of Communist Party leaders. They, in the name of the people, defined foes of centralized government as "enemies of the people." Similarly, Obama´s Department of Homeland Security has defined right-wing extremists as "those that are mainly anti-government,

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

An attorney whose firm represents two Benghazi whistleblowers said Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, lied to the Senate when he said there was never a “stand down” order during the Benghazi attack on Sept. 11, 2012. “What was fascinating is that he explained his lie to them,” Joe DiGenova, an attorney representing one of the whistleblowers, told CNSNews.com. “He actually said they were sent to Tripoli. They were needed in Benghazi,” said DiGenova, a former U.S. attorney, now with the Washington firm of DiGenova & Toensing.

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

At the heart of this work, Revel details "The Tools of Communist Expansion," among which the most relevant for understanding our current situation comes in Chapter 16, "Ideological Warfare and Disinformation." The profound simplicity of Revel´s nuts and bolts account of totalitarianism´s Cold War advance, far from being obsolete

Celebrity chef Paula Deen admitted in a recorded deposition to telling racist jokes, using the N-word, and planning a slavery-themed wedding, according to multiple reports. The May 17 deposition where she made the alleged admissions is part of a $1.2 million lawsuit brought by Lisa Jackson, the former manager of a Savannah, Georgia, restaurant run by Deen and her brother Bubba Hiers. Jackson alleges in the suit that Deen used the N-word at the restaurant and that Hiers sexually harassed her. According to the reports, in the deposition, Deen replied “Yes, of course,”

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.
