| Bring this list to the attention of undecided voters to help them make up their mind that it is, indeed, time for a change. 1. Jobs not being created -Don’t let the official 7.8 percent unemployment rate for September fool you; work-force participation is at a record low and 23 million American are looking for work. Ten times as many people have dropped out of the work force during Obama’s term than have found a job. His last attempt at helping the unemployed—the 2009 stimulus package—cost nearly a trillion dollars with minimal impact on creating actual jobs.

Obama's betrayal of the Ambassador and troops on the ground in Benghazi tops my list.

How about reason 0 (pun intended) - he is not eligible to serve in the first place and this is the only practical way to get him out of there.

Donald Trump is still holding on to 5,000,000 reasons why Obama should be voted out of office. Easy for me to say, but I think Trump and a couple other guys like, say, Adelson, should double it to $10M. If nothing else, just to sweat the guy. Make him sneak a few more smokes a day.

#6 should have been first tied with obama's complete disregard for and deplorable damage to the U.S. Constitution. Also, Human Events should take this out to ~30 so the many unconstitutional issues with Holder's DoJ, Napolitano's DHS and Sebelius' HHS can be more fully identified.

I still have a bad, bad feeling about the election. I think there's a good chance that scumbama will be reelected. Yes, this list matters to rational people, and people who love America. But it doesn't matter at all to liberals. They don't even understand why it should matter. All they care about is scumbama. All the people who voted for him in 2008 are still out there. What's going to make them change what passes for their minds?

Anyone irresponsibly displaying an Obama lawn sign despite the damage he has inflicted on our republic does not deserve the privilege of being an American.

My fantasy is to present these 10 cogent reasons for NOT voting for Obama and asking an Obama-voter to supply me with 10 equally good reasons to vote FOR him.
However, so far my expressed opinions along these lines (and no, unlike Liberals, I do not indulge in name-calling nor in "put-down" references and adjectives) have turned me into someone with whom people don't want to discuss politics...unless they are conservative!
Liberals live in a bubble. Most refuse to be educated. Some will self-educate and often the best you can expect from these is that they will not vote at all.
Conservatives also live in a bubble...but at least we have a Badge of Honor: The media isn't on our side!

A federal judge gave a skeptical reception Wednesday to the Obama administration’s arguments that the courts should stay out of the dispute over the Justice Department’s refusal to turn over some Operation Fast and Furious-related documents to a House committee. Last June, the fight led President Barack Obama to assert executive privilege over the records of the controversial gun trafficking investigation, and to House votes finding Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress for defying a subpoena from the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee.U.S. District Court Judge Amy Berman Jackson spent most of an hour-and-a-half hearing Wednesday

Will Kermit Gosnell, former operator of country’s most notorious abortion clinic, be acquitted? On Tuesday, Common Pleas Judge Jeffrey P. Minehart dismissed three of the seven first-degree murder counts against the West Philadelphia doctor, who performed abortions on poor women in his Lancaster Avenue clinic. Minehart did not elaborate on why the charges were dismissed. If convicted of first-degree murder, the 72-year-old doctor could face the death penalty. Gosnell is also charged with third-degree murder in the 2009 death of a Virginia woman, a Bhutan immigrant who spent 20 years in a

UNIVERSITY PARK, Texas —Of all the images to have emerged from the post-presidential George W. Bush, few have been as startling – or as revealing – as his paintings. It’s an unlikely hobby that has developed into a passion for the former president. Bush told ABC News’ Diane Sawyer that he now paints daily, and works with what he called a “patient” instructor once a week at his Dallas home. “I love to paint. It is — painting has changed my life in an unbelievably positive way,” the former president said. When former President Bush’s beloved Scottish Terrier

WASHINGTON — Chicago billionaire Penny Pritzker, under consideration to lead the Commerce Department, gave the president’s 2013 inauguration a contribution of $250,000, not $500,000, according to an amended report filed Tuesday. The Presidential Inaugural Committee, in reporting donors and contributions on Saturday, said Pritzker made a personal gift of $250,000 and her firm, PSP Capital Partners, made a separate gift of $250,000, both on Jan. 8. But the committee filed an amended public report Tuesday, leaving out any donation from Pritzker’s firm. The reports were made to the Federal Election Commission.

The 12-year-old daughter of a U.S. soldier deployed overseas was reportedly sent home from school by administrators for violating the dress code. Cejai Taylor wore a red t-shirt to honor her father, Sgt. James Taylor, and other service members. It was part of a "red shirt day" campaign that she hoped to start at the school. But administrators reportedly objected because the shirt did not have a collar, though they are taking another look at their policy. And here´s the kicker.

The chief of the FAA told Congress today that Washington-area airports will largely escape the effects of the air traffic controller furloughs — a blessing for lawmakers who fly out of the nation’s capitol. Michael Huerta, head of the Federal Aviation Administration, told a congressional panel that the Washington region’s airports are spaced out enough and have enough spare capacity that furloughs to air traffic controllers won’t hurt as much here. He also said Atlanta should escape major problems because the big airfield there has five runways, which makes it easier to space flights out.

PHILADELPHIA - A Philadelphia abortion provider won´t testify or call witnesses at his capital murder trial. Dr. Kermit Gosnell´s decision follows five weeks of prosecution evidence. Defense lawyer Jack McMahon has done his work by challenging witnesses on cross-examination. The jury is expected to hear closing arguments on Monday.

He is also charged in the 2009 overdose death of a 41-year-old refugee who died months after coming to the U.S. A string of former employees have testified that Gosnell relied on untrained, unlicensed staff to

"Well, I´ve always thought that President Bush was gracious, he was patriotic. He couldn´t have been nicer to my team and family when we made the transition in, and I always had a good friendly relationship with him," Obama said in an interview with NBC´s Savannah Guthrie, portions of which were broadcast Wednesday.

In Obama´s Audacity of Hope, he stated, "I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in any ugly direction." He also asserted in Bob Woodward´s Obama´s Wars, "We can absorb [another] terrorist attack." These are two straightforward statements that raise the question of whether a man who has been seemingly obsessed with reaching out to "the Muslim world" since taking office is capable of fulfilling his duty as commander-in-chief to keep America safe and secure.

George W. Bush will return to the spotlight this week for the dedication of his presidential library, an event likely to trigger fresh public debate about his eight fateful years in office. But he reemerges with a better public image than when he left Washington more than four years ago. Since then, Bush has absented himself from both policy disputes and political battles. A new Washington Post-ABC News poll suggests that the passage of time and Bush’s relative invisibility have been beneficial to a chief executive who left office surrounded by controversy.

Marathon bombings mastermind Tamerlan Tsarnaev was living on taxpayer-funded state welfare benefits even as he was delving deep into the world of radical anti-American Islamism, the Herald has learned. State officials confirmed last night that Tsarnaev, slain in a raging gun battle with police last Friday, was receiving benefits along with his wife, Katherine Russell Tsarnaev, and their 3-year-old daughter. The state’s Executive Office of Health and Human Services said those benefits ended in 2012 when the couple stopped meeting income eligibility limits.

Tamerlan Tsarnaev is telling no tales. The older of the two brothers who committed the Boston Marathon bombings was likely the one who planned the attack, but when he died in a shootout with police just days after the blasts, his thoughts and motivations vanished with him. But the brain that was home to his angry mind remains, and in this case that may mean something. Tsarnaev was an amateur boxer who won the New England Golden Gloves competition as recently as 2009 and 2010. That speaks to a young man with a healthy sense
