Main Steam Media Bias

A prime example of Main stream media bias is the blame heaped upon Bush for gas prices during his second term and Obama’s lack of blame now. When prices spiked under Bush, every media outlet anf the Democratic party was taking issue and blaming his cloudy connection with “Big Oil” as the reason.. Now that gas prices are skyrocketing with Obama at the helm, there is nary a word from the left wing main stream media. Why was it Bush’s fault then, and now it isn’t Obama’s fault. Excusues like, “it’s international” or “the President has no control over these prices” are bandied about by the left to get him off the hook. The media loves this guy Obama. Tha’s a big reason why he got elected in ’08. He got a “pass” from the media and was not properly vetted say like Sarah Palin was. He is the affirmation of everything liberal, and, most of the main stream media is liberal in their bent, so he doesn’t get any blame when a Republican would. It’s time for the Republicans to frame this argument and lay it a t the doorstep of the man responsible……Obama. They have a great case to make, and it is being gift wrapped for them by this guy’s incompetence.

By the way, How did President Bush handle high gas prices? He lifted the moratorium on off shore oil leases and released fuel from the national oil reserve. That’s how a real leader handles a crisis. How has Obama handled this crisis? He kicks out oil companies from the Gulf of Mexico, and says no to the Keystone Pipeline. Yet, he is still given a pass. Amazing and disngusting. This country is a lot worse now than it ever wwas under Bush and we are hedaded for a reckoning soon that will make us a second class power.

Create a Nation of Slaves by Addicting the Middle Class to Free “Stuff”

Obama wants to create a nation of slaves by addicting the middle class to free “stuff”. Let’s face it, it is easier to get stuff for free than it is to work for those things. We have a president who is more than willing to give things away to people without them putting in any effort to acquire them. A successful life is hard to acheive. It’s not easy to accomplish and earn. It is difficult. When someone, like Obama and the Democrats, sell you on the fact that you do not have to work hard to be successful, most people are willing to buy it. Examples of Obama’s largesse to the folks are abundant. He wants to provide free health care, free eucation by forgiving student loans, free mortgage restructuring for people who are underwater, continual unemployment checks for the life of your unemployment, free money used as tax breaks you can use to buy battery operated inefficient cars, free food through liberal food stamp provisions, and the list goes on and on. This all sounds great. People like “stuff” for free.

The problem is that nothing comes “FREE”. Someone has to pay. Obama has people convinced that raising taxes on wealthy people will take care of all those pesky costs associated with his “free” agenda. This is pure unadulterated bullshit. However, who doesn’t want rich people to pay more in taxes? After all, we all hate those rich snobs. They got rich by pirating money away from us anyway, right! That’s the way the Democrats have framed the argument. The real fact is that you could confiscate all of the “rich people’s” wealth and it wouldn’t come close to repaying our debts. This FACT is not part of Obama’s web of deceit, so he conveniently leaves that out. If you did confiscate all the wealthy people’s assets, guess what, those creative, innovative, inventive people will leave this country. Then we will really become of third world nation.

So you see folks, “free” stuff really isn’t free, because when you take “free” stuff you give away something that is also free…….FREE..DOM!

P.S. Oh, there is one thing that is currently guaranteed to us free that he does want to take away…..Freedom of religion.

The Assault on Religious Freedom by Obama is in Full Swing

The assault on religious freedom by Obama is in full swing. Make no mistake folks as the onion of Obamacare gets peeled layer by layer more and more horrific consequences of this unconstitutional mandate will come to light. Obamacare is forcing religious groups to dismiss their beliefs and provide contraception and morning after pills to its employees. This is a direct violation of the 1st amendment right to worship religion without government interference. It forces the Catholic church, in particular, to violate its teachings, and the White House is trying to dismiss the Catholic church’s concerns about this mandate and frame this as a “women’s health” issue. It is clearly an assault on religion, which is in keeping with this president’s policies. “We are not a Christian Nation” speech to Egyptians comes to mind.

How far this guy goes depends on the people. We cannot be willing to be led by the nose into an entitlement abyss by this administration. Giving to some means taking from others and that doesn’t just mean wealth redistribution. Taking freedom of religion and giving abortions to women is more insidious than taking people’s wealth. It is a direct assault on people’s right to worship as they chose. I am reminded of the famous poem by the German Protestant Pastor Martin Neimoller “First they Came”

“First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out – because I was not a communist;
Then they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out – because I was not a socialist;
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out – because I was not a trade unionist;
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out – because I was not a Jew;
Then they came for me – and there was no one left to speak out for me.”

It can happen here folks.
