Video: Thin Skinned Obama blasts Bush at Naval Academy Graduation and fails to take responsibility for his own decisions or lack of them

Sometimes it appears that Obama is still fighting the presidential election campaign of 2008. He loses no opportunity to snipe at the previous Bush administration. He seems to forget that he is already in power for five months. It is now time for him to take responsibility for decisions which he makes. Obama's spending plans will triple the national debt which he inherited from Bush. Obama and the Democrat controlled Congress have avoided the hard decisions on public expenditure.
His speech at the Naval Academy Graduation in Annapolis contains the following:

"When America strays from our values, it not only undermines the rule of law, it alienates us from our allies, it energizes our adversaries and it endangers our national security and the lives of our troops."

Here Obama is hammering his predecessor as usual. Perhaps he might care to define what he means by values. He has a selective approach to the term. He has strayed from American values with his support for the Culture of Death. He is a pro abortion extremist. Tripling the national debt is certainly not in accord with American values. It is Voodoo economics. Increasing the influenece of the State is at odds with the beliefs of most Americans who are certainly not Socialists.

Ireland: Socialist Fintan O'Toole's flawed political agenda laid bare on Late Late Show

Irish Times columnist Fintan O'Toole along with Nell McCafferty and Dr John Crown- appeared on tonight's Late Late show and attacked deficiencies in the Irish political system. Present in the audience were politicians from FF, FG, Labour, Sinn Fein and Greens.

O'Toole criticized the parish pump mentality and lambasted cute hoorism. He savaged the clinic system and demanded an end to multi-seat constituencies and a fundamental realignment in party politics.
Undoubtedly he is correct in some respects but in reality he is an elitist and a theoretician. The clinic system keeps politicians in touch with the requirements of the electorate. This is something which Fintan would not understand. Ending mult-seat constituencies would be undemocratic and would skew the results of elections in a manner similar to the UK. There the Lib Dems can secure 20% of the vote and yet end up with a very low proportion of seats. O'Toole has a leftist political agenda-something which he failed to declare. He took a cheap shot at FG leader Enda Kenny. O'Toole wants a left wing government. He has contempt for an electorate which in the main votes for centre right parties. We must do Fintan's bidding apparently. Tonight Fintan hectored and lectured not alone the politicians but also the electorate.

Spain and Britain have political systems polarized on a left right basis so beloved of O'Toole. The Spanish and British economies have been run into the ground by their Socialist governments. Fintan O'Toole needs to divest himself of his Socialist dogma and go back to the drawing board. He is out of touch on many issues.

10,000 St. Louis Tax Day Tea Party Protesters addressed by Gateway Pundit Jim Hoft

More than 800 tea party protests took place across the US yesterday. These give expression to the resentment of people at rising taxes and ballooning government expenditure. The Obama administration will quadruple the national deficit in one year. The Obama spending bill has 9,000 earmarks in it and will pump millions into funding of foreign abortions. Excessive borrowing is unsustainable. This powerful speech by Jim Hoft nicely encapsulates the problem faced by the US. It taps into the psyche of many that self-sufficiency rather than greater state involvement is the way forward. Indeed this speech could be delivered in many European countries, which face similar problems to the US.

Governments must learn to live within their means. Wasteful government expenditure must be eradicated. Voters in the US and Western Europe must learn to accept lower living standards. Unfortunately living standards are supported by massive borrowing splurges. The time has come to shout stop. Stimulus packages-funded by foreign borrowing- may give a temporary boost, but will quickly run out of steam if the economic fundamentals are not sound.

Their impact is similar to the effects of the quick fix on a drug addict.
Governments in the US and Western Europe must pursue sound fiscal and monetary policies over the short and long term. Quite frankly printing money is not the solution. Increasingly taxpayer revolts will become the norm if the massive government expenditure problem is not tackled. We must learn to live within our means. We cannot have the government services that we require unless the economy generates the financial resources to pay for these services. High levels of individual taxation stultify effort and are ultimately self -defeating.
Even the Russians and Chinese have learned this lesson.

PA-Sarah Palin addresses 3,000 supporters at Latrobe Airport

30 Oct 2008 (NECN: Cape Girardeau, MO) - Sarah Palin held a "Road To Victory" rally at the Show Me Center

30 Oct 2008 (NECN: Cape Girardeau, MO) - Sarah Palin held a "Road To Victory" rally at the Show Me Center in Cape Girardeau, Missouri this morning. Speaking to an overflow attendance she was hugely impressive. She spoke about the war in Iraq. She stated that a McCain/Palin administration would impose a spending freeze and make real cuts in taxation. She outlined plans for energy independence and pledged to work for special needs children. She said "every innocent life" counts. She said that Government should not take more. She stated that Obama has an ideological commitment to higher taxes and that he actually voted 94 times for higher taxes. She explained how Obama favoured bigger government , raising taxes and spreading the wealth-Socialism. She said that a McCain/Palin administration would clean up Wall Street..........

Video:WFTV's Barbara West belittled By Brash Biden

In this interview Joe Biden comes across as condescending and bad mannered. The interviewer Barbara West asked topical questions aimed at eliciting information. She questioned Joe Biden about Acorn attempts to register phoney voters. She also referred to Obama's links to Acorn.

The next question concerned redistribution of wealth. After all Obama declared to Joe the Plumber that this was part of his political philosophy and policy platform. Biden did not like the interviewers reference to Marxism: “From each according to his ability, to each according to his need (or needs)” Now Joe Biden cant have it both ways . In his acceptance speech he played the class warfare card. Obama's redistribution of wealth policy is grounded in Socialism/Marxism. Why not call it what it really is? Obama plans an explosion in expenditure devoted to Welfare. This is redistribution of wealth. Much of this money will come from higher taxes on the middle class and on businesses.

How is Obama going to finance tax cuts? His promises amount to 1,000 billion dollars. The bailout costs another 700 billion dollars. He is opposed to a public expenditure freeze. Obama and Biden must come clean on funding for tax cuts?

When asked about foreign policy he used the snide put down “I don’t know who is writing your questions for you.”
In the course of this campaign Obama and Biden have received very favourable treatment from most media organs. Now the Obama campaign is denying this station interviews because Joe Biden was asked substantive questions. This says it all.
Just imagine if Sarah Palin had addressed the interviewer in a similar manner to Joe Biden. There would be an outcry in the liberal media.

Obama and Clinton seek change to Socialism

Essentially there is little difference in the policy platforms of Clinton and Obama. Both favour greater state involvement. Obama's promises now total $800 billion. Both Clinton's and Obama's proposals on health -if implemented-would have frightening implications for the national finances. Neither candidate has spelled out details on the funding of these extravagant promises. Only one conclusion is possible. Both intend to raise taxes- directly and by stealth. God help the middle class.

Hillary Clinton defends Socialism and makes a major political faux pas

Jan. 17 - Democratic candidate for president Sen. Hillary Clinton played flight attendant on board "Hill Force One," providing campaign commentary from the friendly skies.
In this video Hillary Clinton states-"If you look out from the left you will see a strong middle class". She is clearly emphasizing the point that she is a candidate of the Left. She is running for election as a Socialist. There is little difference in political ideology between Clinton Edwards and Obama. All three are Socialists. Clinton has finally dropped the pretence that she is a candidate of the centre. She is a strong supporter of socialised health care. Socialised health care in the US would cripple the middle class.
