Obama Blames Economy on
´Bad Decisions´

Weekly Standard, by Daniel Halper

Original Article

Posted By:JoniTx, 2/2/2013 12:19:14 PM

In his weekly address, President Barack Obama blamed the economic problems on "bad decisions."(Snip) The president did not name which decisions were "bad," and who specifically was to blame for those "bad decisions." But he did blame Washington. "2013 can be a year of solid growth, more jobs, and higher wages. But that will only happen if we put a stop to self-inflicted wounds in Washington. Everyone in Washington needs to focus not on politics but on what’s right for the country; on what’s right for you and your families.

Well obviously it was the bad Republicans. They didn´t realize how good the government investment in solar power would be. Oh, wait.

How long can this oily, slimy excuse for a leader escape the inevitable grip of the truth: he is the one responsible for the bad decisions because ... he made them.

How long?

I can think of only two bad decisions.

The first bad decision was made on November 4, 2008, and the second bad decision was made on November 6, 2012.

Has he just been president for 3 weeks or has he been here the last four years?

Or maybe he´s Rip Van Soetero.

0bama always blames everyone for his failures. He takes no responsibility for his own bad decisions. His stimulus was a bad decision. Making the government responsible for student loan debt was a bad decision. Printing 83 Billion new dollars each month is a bad decision. 0bamacare is not only a bad decision, but will become a real nightmare when the costs kick in; the first four years, we are only collecting, but you wait and see, our healthcare costs will skyrocket to an unsustainable debt. Another very bad decision was giving the green energy people billions of dollars; his friends got rich, and the taxpayers paid billions of dollars to these companies, most of which went bankrupt.

D´Souza in his latest book quotes a dem economist in his saying that were he intentionally wanting to inflict damage on the U.S. economy, he would do exactly what Obama/Soetero has done.

Good example: Keystone nixed, millions sent to Brazil/Colombia to develop THEIR oil resources. Thnx O. We don´t like you either!

There is no benefit to the Democrat Party to allow the economy to recover. That would give money and aid to the enemy, republicans. The Democrat Party has done everything it can to stop job growth. They remember Reagan, they remember the 90´s, they know what happens when people make money. We need to do the same to them, cripple their money. The first logical target would be Government Unions. Since this is not happening, I know the GOP is not serious about Governing. Cheers.

Obama is no fool, yet he is malevolent. Don´t underestimate him.

I often wondered why he makes such bad decisions for America and its citizens.

Then I stumbled across this link about "The shared agendas of George Soros and Barack Obama."

Illuminating to say the least. It´s a long read, but if you take it in parts you can get through it. It´s quite scary what these two have been plotting and planning.

Did you see he postponed the pipeline another 6 mo´s? Kinda hard to blame Chu when he´s on his way out...

More than 700 Special Operations veterans are urging members of Congress to back a select committee to investigate last year’s Benghazi terrorist attack, according to a letter first obtained by Fox News. The letter from the group, “Special Operations Speaks,” supports the appointment of a special committee tasked with the single mission of investigating the attack that left Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans dead, and shut down the CIA operation in an annex of the Benghazi consulate, in the Sept. 11, 2012 attack. “Congress must show some leadership and provide answers to the public

New York -Lawmakers in the US state have overwhelmingly passed a bill allowing locals to salvage meat from the carcasses of wild animals killed in road accidents. When signed into law by the governor, Montana could become "the ultimate drive-through destination for adventurous foodies", the website Huffington Post noted. Steve Lavin, the legislator who introduced the bill, said that the idea came to him as he drove the open highways of the predominantly rural state and started to count the carcasses lining the road. "It really is a sin to waste a good meat,"

President Obama lives at a time when there are two very different and very well-defined political ideologies. On the one hand, the GOP is fighting for spending contraints, limited regulation, and more personal economic choice. President Obama and his party are more determined than any administration in U.S. history to promote and execute the idea that federal government is best suited to both meet the needs of the people and run the economy. The most fascinating aspect of this yin and yang pull of ideologies is not just that they are taking place at this time in history,

Using the bully pulpit to urge a response to a tragedy unlike any he has faced in office, President Barack Obama comes to Hartford on Monday in a last-ditch attempt to revive Democrats´ faltering efforts to pass stricter federal gun legislation. His speech at the University of Hartford marks the second time that the president has visited the state since the Newtown shootings locked the nation´s attention on gun control.(Snip) Obama´s speech on Monday afternoon at the university´s Chase Family Arena is closed to the public, but open to students, faculty, staff and guests invited by the White House.

WASHINGTON— President Barack Obama supports requiring girls younger than 17 to see a doctor before buying the morning-after pill. But fighting that battle in court comes with its own set of risks. A federal judge in New York on Friday ordered the Food and Drug Administration to lift age restrictions on the sale of emergency contraception, ending the requirement that buyers show proof they’re 17 or older if they want to buy it without a prescription. The ruling accused the Obama administration in no uncertain terms of letting the president’s pending re-election cloud its judgment when it

GOP Must Stop ´My Way or the

Projecting madly, the White House on Sunday pushed the notion that Republican intransigence is the reason that Democrats have been unable to pass a budget during President Obama’s tenure. “Right now,” said senior White House advisor Dan Pfeiffer on Fox News Sunday, “the approach of many Republicans, particularly the leadership in the House, is my way or the highway.” This is certainly rich coming from an administration that has failed to garner a single “yes” vote on its budget proposals for the past several years, even from members of its own party.

WASHINGTON — President Obama went out for a round of golf Saturday afternoon, his second weekend in a row to hit the links at a course at Joint Base Andrews. The president golfed with White House aides Marvin Nicholson, Joe Paulsen, and Michael Brush. Last Saturday, the president played golf at the same course with Nicholson, Brush, and friend and Chicago businessman Marty Nesbitt. The outing marked his first time on the golf course since the sequester cuts went into place on March 1. The president also took in the Syracuse-Marquette NCAA tournament basketball game

No doubt there are parents who have frank, frequent, open and easy discussions with their teens about sex. I’ve never met any. I do know parents, however, who were stunned to find their 15-year-old’s birth control pills in her pocketbook. Or who came home early to discover junior and a girl they’d never met frantically buttoning up. Or who found out — when their children were grown — what really went on when Meghan said she was sleeping over at Ashley’s. Such sobering tales of teens snookering mom and dad caused mixed emotions in me — a solidly pro-choice

Last fall, Ginnette Powell traveled from her home in Boston´s Dorchester section to her old middle school in South Boston - a journey of just two miles, but one that covered a huge emotional distance. Finally, she was able to leave the painful past behind. Powell endured the explosive battle over desegregation in Boston in the 1970s. Tears come to her eyes when she talks about how it took her decades to return to the place where she never felt safe as an African-American seventh-grader."It was scary because of what you were going into, getting bricks thrown at your bus.

A few years after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, Lindalyn Adams was escorting visitors on a bus traveling down Elm Street near Dealey Plaza. “I was pointing out the John Neely Bryan cabin and the Old Red Courthouse, and suddenly I realized the whole bus was leaning towards the right as we were going close to the Texas School Book Depository, and the women [were] pointing and saying, “Is that? Is that? Is that?’” Adams recalled during an oral history interview. She knew, of course, what “that” meant. “That” was where Kennedy had been shot.

Recent research indicates that the number of people who do not consider themselves a part of an organized religion is steadily on the rise. Interestingly enough, though the number of those religiously unaffiliated is increasing, there is little to no trend in the number of those who express atheist or agnostic beliefs. People aren’t saying they don’t believe in God. They’re saying they don’t believe in religion. They are not rejecting Christ. They are rejecting the church. This begs the question, “Why are we losing our religion?”

The 34-year-old information management officer was one of four Americans murdered in the Benghazi embassy attack on September 11, 2012.

Put out an all-points bulletin: Millions of Americans have gone missing from the workforce. Every month that those would-be workers are gone raises the odds that they might never come back, dimming the prospects for future economic growth. The vanishing trend is more than a decade old, but it accelerated during the Great Recession. Throughout 2012, economists held out hope that it had stopped. But then came Friday’s jobs report, and hopes were dashed. The Labor Department reported that the U.S. labor force — everyone who has a job or is looking for one — shrank

Is going gluten-free

Gluten-free diets are all the rage, but they can be dangerous if not done right. What is gluten? It´s the spongy complex of proteins, found naturally in wheat, rye, and barley, that gives elasticity to dough and allows it to rise. When flour is moistened and either kneaded or mixed into dough, gluten molecules form an elastic, microscopic latticework that traps the carbon dioxide produced when yeast ferments, causing dough to inflate like a hot air balloon. Baking hardens the gluten, which helps the finished product keep its shape. Wheat — and gluten — is ubiquitous in the American diet.

Newtown killer Adam Lanza may have launched his murder spree at Sandy Hook Elementary School as an “act of revenge,” the Daily News has learned. A close friend of Lanza’s mother told The News that the troubled boy was a target of relentless bullying when he attended the Connecticut school years ago. “I think Adam felt betrayed by the school and this was his act of revenge,” said Marvin LaFontaine, a friend of Nancy Lanza’s. “Nancy told me he was being picked on at school. That they were just torturing him.”
