mpty Rhetoric or Forceful Action in Iran by Obama It doesn’t matter what the President says on the topic. I hear that he is “moved” by the images in Iran but has failed to answer the call of Iranian protesters. He is cautious about what he says and does. The rhetoric he has been pushing out is all empty words to me. America has the strength to change the outcome for Iran but won’t. There won’t be anything done by the United States government. You can wear all the free Iran shirts and wristbands all you want. The fact is we’ve learned our lesson in Iraq, and Afghanistan. We are not going to go into Iran to change this outcome. It is not in our interest to be in Iran. I interviewed a soldier that was in Iraq since the war started. He was there and saw that we were there for oil. Huge convoys of tankers filling up and transporting oil. What is the financial reason behind entering Iran? There isn’t any. Obama says these things and gives out press releases just so he looks good. He looks like he supports the Iranian protestors. Really he hasn’t said anything at all. He called for unjust actions against the protesters. He supports the Iranian protestors that are looking for peaceful change. He is giving the protesters reason to believe the United States will intervene with force if the situation boils down to it. Really, he is dancing the line between doing nothing and saying nothing. All this will do is lower Obama’s credibility on foreign affairs. http://politicalpete.com/empty-rhetoric-or-forceful-action-in-iran-by-obama/

I was out to dinner with some friends and we were talking about some topics that just so happened to lead to an Obama joke. I’m a pretty loud guy, and everyone seemed to hear me. I instantly get stares in my direction; stares of disapproval and shock. I didn’t think thats what they were looking at me for. I just thought I was handsome so I thought nothing of it. Again I did another Obama joke and we got into the talking about how one of my posts offended so many Obama supporters.
The post was something along the lines of, he hasn’t accomplished much of his campaign promises. I got outrageous comments like, “Stop hating on Obama, he’s still settling in.”
The conversation continued and went something like this. After six months in any job that is not settling in. Thats being unprepared and unable to do the job. Anyone else in the job force would know what I’m talking about. Six months in and the “new guy” can’t get it right? Fire him or something. I again look up to see the world in awe of my comments. Is there something on my face? So I really start to jab at them and call him feminine with a manly looking wife, and bring up the possibility that he might be gay. I then get whispers and stares, while me and my friends laugh it up. A social experiment.
People love Obama and it has turned into some sort of faux pas to talk about him. I’m pretty sure I’ll get some Obamatrons angry with this post, but who cares? An Obamatron is a person that loves Obama no matter how much he doesn’t fulfill his campaign promises.
“Will create a national “Make College A Reality” initiative that has a bold goal to increase students taking AP or college-level classes nationwide 50 percent by 2016, and will build on Obama’s bipartisan proposal in the U.S. Senate to provide grants for students seeking college level credit at community colleges if their school does not provide those resources.”
Has not done anything on this.
“Will make college affordable for all Americans by creating a new American Opportunity Tax Credit. This universal and fully refundable credit will ensure that the first $4,000 of a college education is completely free for most Americans, and will cover two-thirds the cost of tuition at the average public college or university and make community college tuition completely free for most students. Recipients of the credit will be required to conduct 100 hours of community service.”
The credit had been $1,800 under existing law and will now go to $2,500 thanks to the stimulus. But that’s still well below the $4,000 Obama promised.
“Will create a Community College Partnership Program to strengthen community colleges by providing grants to a) conduct more thorough analysis of the types of skills and technical education that are in high demand from students and local industry; b) implement new associate of arts degree programs that cater to emerging industry and technical career demands; and c) reward those institutions that graduate more students and also increase their numbers of transfer students to four-year institutions.”
Still nothing. Try transferring to a four year PUBLIC STATE FUNDED university. On average they reject 51% of transfer students. Where does the dream of attending college fit in when you can’t get into a PUBLIC STATE FUNDED UNIVERSITY?
First of all his compromise is a joke. $2500 to offset college costs? I read a story about a girl working in a restaurant as a waitress with $80,000 dollars of school debt. YOU SPENT $787 BILLION DOLLARS ON A COMPANY THAT LOST MORE THAN A TRILLION DOLLARS IN ONE YEAR.
41% voted yes, 41% voted no, 18% voted unsure on health care reform. Since when does that equate to 62% of Americans approving the Health care bill. Yeah you’re tactics are sneaky and untruthful. Clearly the country is split on this.
I just think that bloating numbers and manipulating the public to get your agenda across shouldn’t be considered a political tactic. Its flat out lying to the public.
Rethink your campaign and rethink this whole healthcare thing. I think you should be focusing on increasing increasing jobs for teachers, decreasing cost of attending college, something that would be helpful instead of pushing a bill with no budget. You can pass the health care reform but it is not what the country wants. Obviously there are more important things we need to get done. I just got the newspaper and unemployment in Texas rose again. Where are all those 2.5 million jobs you promised.
Seriously, we need jobs, and we need education. Want to stimulate the economy? Accept more students into Public State funded Universities. They are averaging 51% admission rates. We are already paying out the wazoo for college costs anyway. Up to$24,000 a year for college and instantly lending increases and that money is instantly spent on expenses involved with going to college.
Down from heaven Obama decendended. Then a chicken flew down next to Obama and said with Oprah’s voice, “This is the next President.” Obama is our Savior. He will change things. Things he will not say. He will, change things. He then grew older and became a community planner. His disciples were ageing women. Usually community planners are done by older women but that is okay. With his disciples in hand he ran for the Largest church to represent and was persecuted and failed. He tries again in a different church more suitable and became Senator. His amazing feats as Senator is as follows, he failed at almost ten legislative acts, but one, by God almighty, one passed and graced the hand of his Father, the Great George Bush. The Congo relief and Democracy Promotion act passed. He has done it. Performed a miracle. Now he is ready to lead the Church on Earth as it is in heaven. You have proven yourself well Barack Hussein Barry Soetoro Obama Jr. Your holy birth has been noted. You are an immaculate child as you have no proof of a birth certificate in the United States, and against all odds and the Constitution you have become President of the United states. No one knows what you will do but you will Change everything. Go to the middle east and Hail the Holy Quran as you have many times before. Now go back to your churches days later and be hailed a conduit of Jesus. Go in peace, Amen.

I don't think there is anything to debate here. Government run healthcare works and has worked for a long time in other countries. The reason we don't have it here is because companies are making too much money. Take away the privatization of healthcare and there is no need for insurance, and worst of all (for companies) no money. We might be looking at a huge drop in our nations profits, but who cares. If I get sick and go to the doctor without insurance there is no way I could pay it. If it was Government sponsored I would have world class healthcare and not have to worry about it. Of course it comes at a price. I've tried to raise awareness about this for a while now and no one has seemed to care. I get no diggs or downvoted on sites because they think I'm some crazy nut. Well here you go people, its on Capitol Hill and they are debating the issue. It doesn't have a price tag because it will be rejected on that basis alone. A few days ago, they started a grass-roots campaign for this bill to help it pass. The reason they had to do that is because it is going to take down healthcare as we know it and piss off a lot of companies that have been contributing money to keep it that way. Also the elderly are going to freak out because they have passed a lot of legislation to keep healthcare and are afraid that they might lose it. This bill will be the most costly bill we've ever seen. To do it, were talking almost 10 trillion dollars over 40 years doubling our national debt. So basically were socializing healthcare. It sounds good. I don't care. Give healthcare to everyone. More importantly socialize our schools. At least the public ones. We have the worst healthcare in the industrialized world(almost), but I am sure we're somewhere behind a small third world country and Cuba I think. Thats right America sucks in healthcare. Watch the PBS documentary that will show you our national debt in 2050.

I always wonder seeing Technorati’s toplist. The supposed blogosphere of bloggers holy grail type of site. It’s still kind of crazy to see companies on that list. Weblogs Inc, Google Blog, crap like that. Do they really fall into the blogger category? I looked up the definition of a blog and they almost all fall in this category. An online journal or log, maintained by a person, with commentary of his own thoughts or ideas. Since when does a blog constitute a company owned and operated website in order to look or become a blog. Since when do companies have any need for expressing ideas besides making money. Technorati, you fail at filtering those things out. Oh I forget, you’re a big company selling all this blogger information to the highest bidder. Sorry for taking a break from the usual but it pisses me off that small bloggers have to compete against conglomerate incorporated companies. I’m blogging to get my ideas out or I’ll explode and die. Getting someone to read them has been my goal since I started. I still get a pretty good amount of traffic but I feel for all you other bloggers. Being controlled by companies. Its frustrating to me, that we try so hard to be good bloggers to be bullied around by a company disguised as a blog. I’m asking all bloggers to weigh in on this issue and comment.

With all the news about North Korea, I thought I should show what its really like in North Korea. If we can understand whats going on, then we can know what actions to take in the future. With watching this documentary I wonder if Kim Jong-Il; the current Leader, is really in charge. They still worship the old leader for more than 50 years. I think that the country is an intelligence nightmare on our part. How can we tell who is on what side? Who really controls the country? How can intelligence agencies even know where to start?
Good news taxpayers. We don’t have to bail them out. They’ve been creating stupid suvs, inefficient vehicles, poor quality products and overall were not competitive. What also didn’t help is the UAW demanding so much stuff. You work in a factory. You should not be getting paid more than a teacher. Where are your priorities? I understand you need more money but look at you now. All those demands tanked the company. All those perks you fought for all these years have been making GM unable to compete in the market and now you’re all screwed big time.
Its not such a bad thing though for GM. They can stop making all those payouts to people, and they aren’t obligated to UAW contracts anymore. Now they can restructure, rebuild, and become and competitive force in our market. I would say overall its bad for the employees and bad for retired employees. Essentially it is good for business and I have been an advocate of filing for bankruptcy for a long time. Let the big three tank. They will come back even stronger and better. They can’t keep shelling out cars hoping for the best anymore. They have to create a company that will be competitive long-term. Long-term doesn’t mean 6.0 Liter V8 Monster SUV’s that haul around a single soccer mom. More fuel efficient, better technology, quality, and pricing that doesn’t kill the consumer.
Their SUV’s and trucks were selling in Texas for about $28,000 and their regular MSRP would be closer to $45,000. You can see where all the UAW perks and fluffs were put into the pricing. They had to do it just to break even and they couldn’t do that. I look forward to the auto company’s return and new vehicles. By the way, filing for bankruptcy doesn’t mean they will stop making cars or conducting business. It just cuts out the unecessary contracts and reduces their overhead. Did you really want another bailout with your tax money for GM anyway? It’s like buying the car and making payments on it with interest, and then paying tax to keep the company that you are already paying. Ridiculous. Go down in flames GM. Do it right the next time.
To Invade or not To Invade.
Should we invaded North Korea? Currently testing long range and short range missiles. Recent underground nuclear test. Recent atomic test. Recent land to ship missile tests. Imminent long range missile test. This country that thinks it has been at war for almost 60 Years because of a crazed dictator. No contact with the outside world. No visitors into the country. Crazy Dictator. Big Bombs. Improved technology over the last ten years. People still think they have small arms and rusted ak’s, but their last test shows they have atomic capabilities. They don’t care about the UN Security council, or The United States. They left diplomatic talks for disarmament. Kicked out nuclear inspectors. What else can you say about the country that already hasn’t been said? Oh yeah, they are on route to becoming a nuclear state.
They are now getting ready to test another Long range missile, Taepo Dong II missile. Its on a train to the missile launch site.
The United States has threatened unspecified measures against the North Koreans for the action, with General George Casey saying America was ready to fight a war against the nation if necessary. Secretary of Defense Robert Gates says that the US will not accept North Korea as a nuclear state.
We’re going to sit and wait again while they get closer and closer to nuclear capabilities. Then we will be in a heap of trouble. They have been gearing up for war for 50+ years. The only thing we’ve done is give them stern warnings. The questions isn’t how we are going to stop them. It’s who is willing to stop them.

LOL Who gets the blame for the 9/11 re-enactment. Maybe he’ll get a job doing civil war re-enactments now. President Obama has accepted the resignation of Louis Caldera, the director of the White House Military Office responsible for the controversial low-altitude flyover of New York by a 747 plane used as Air Force One, the White House said Friday.
The photo shoot, which President Obama said he was “furious” with, happened on April 27. The image of a low-flying plane accompanied by an F-16 fighter jet sent some New Yorkers into the streets and into a panic — reminding them of the tragic 9/11 attacks on the city.
Building evacuations also took place across the Hudson River in Jersey City, New Jersey. Watch as people run for their lives.
Imagine being strapped down and helpless. Head covered. Water pouring over your face. Scared to death. Try gasping for air and nothing comes. Only a brief moment of relief when they stop pumping water up your nose. Doctors and guards standing around you, doing nothing to stop it. The traumatic experience of thinking I was going to drown only happened for that day. After that I knew how to swim. What would I do if they did this to me 183 times in a month? Torture? I think so. A lesser form of torture but torture none the less. My country tortures people.

I would like to inform you of some important information from Government published resources you may be unaware of. The national average is approximately $36,000 to keep an inmate in prison a year. The national average of a public university per year is $18,500. Why is it that I can only get $12,000 of funding when I am considered below the poverty line? Two years in prison will pay for my four years attending a university. Tell my why I can’t attend school because I don’t have the credit to borrow $6,500 a year from a private bank to attend a public university and I can’t find a job in this economy. I understand you are a busy man, so I’m writing this letter to inform you in the event this was overlooked.
Thank you,

I think it might be an easier choice to go to prison and graduate there.
The Obama World Tour is off to a great start. The G-20 Summit provided a great stomping ground for Obama to pucker up to 17 Different world leaders all at one time. This was another get rich scheme the world has allowed to happen. They say the goal is to improve jobs, economic stability and provide growth but, what it really means is lend a small country more money they can return so we financially own that small country for centuries to come. $1.1 trillion dollars to small economically hurt countries? Some of them don’t produce that much GDP in a year. How are they supposed to pay that back? By becoming our slaves. You won’t ever hear about it because there is no political will. It’s just like stupid wanna-be homeowners that buy a $300,000 house when they only make $45,000 a year with three kids. You are asking for trouble. Maybe I’m being too cynical but I don’t think putting ourselves on the backs of developing nations is a good way to keep our standard of living. Anyway next topic. A very important topic. 3 of the top 5 banks used to be AMERICAN BANKS. Now China is 1, 2, and you guessed it, 3 on the Top Banks OF THE WORLD!!. There GDP has risen 6.5% while ours has fallen 3% or so. What does this mean? China will be the next economic superpower within the next 50 years. Don’t believe it? Their richest 1% has more money than our richest 12%. They are just now building there middle class people. Now imagine a country that has a LIMIT on how many kids they have, growing a middle class. It’s only a matter of time, but the way their GDP is rising, you might have to go to China town to get that home loan. On top of that North Korea is going to shoot a missile into the ocean, more on that later.
All over the news I’ve been reading about the missile launch from North Korea, and everyone is appalled at this “Provocative” act. Why is it provocative to so many nations? Is it because of the phallic shaped rocket name “Taepo DONG 2″? The missile that undresses itself over international waters by ejecting the tip of the rocket into space is turning the heads of international spokesmen. Only one thing comes to mind when this sort of thing happens. Read these Provocative statements by world leaders below after Kim Jong iL and N. Korea eject their erection in front of the whole world.
US STATE DEPARTMENT SPOKESMAN FRED LASH
We look on this as a provocative act…
SOUTH KOREAN PRESIDENTIAL SPOKESMAN LEE DONG-KWAN
The government will deal firmly and resolutely with North Korea’s provocative act.
Regardless of any North Korean claims, this is provocative activity…
STATEMENT FROM US PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA
With this provocative act, North Korea has ignored its international obligations… to refrain from further provocative actions.
Adj. 1. provocative - serving or tending to provoke, excite, or stimulate; stimulating discussion or exciting controversy; “a provocative remark”; “a provocative smile”; “provocative Irish tunes which…compel the hearers to dance”- Anthony Trollope exciting - creating or arousing excitement; “an exciting account of her trip” unprovocative, unprovoking - not provocative 2. provocative - exciting sexual desire; “her gestures and postures became more wanton and provocative” sexy - marked by or tending to arouse sexual desire or interest; “feeling sexy”; “sexy clothes”; “sexy poses”; “a sexy book”; “sexy jokes”
OooOO Provocatively Stimulating Phallic Launching from the evil mastermind.
