Obama now holding Bush Tax cuts hostage – will veto any bill unless it extends jobless aid
Obama is good at sucking up to terrorist. So him using “hostage” language is very fitting. Earlier in the day, Obama whined about the Senate is holding the middle-class very of the Bush Tax Cuts hostage.
Now, Obama is holding the poor, middle-class and evil rich tax rates hostage. Obama will veto any bill for the maintaining the tax rates, even temporary extension unless he gets his way. Obama is now demanding (just like a hostage taker) that jobless benefits be extended (again).
Save Obama’s presidency! Have Barney Frank or Rachael Maddow challenge him in 2012!
Ok. The article that suggested the “people” in the title of this post was written by a Rabbi named Michael Lerner. He is so bummed at Obama’s lack of leadership skills and forcing an even futhur left wing progressive agenda, he wents far left loons to challenge him in a primary for 2012. What’s the matter? Left wing nuts aren’t satisfied with owning banks, car companies and taking over America’s health care system? They aren’t satisfied with the most radical left wing President in modern history? Nothing will ever satisfy progressives. Not only does Rabbi Lerner suggest Frank or Maddow, he also suggests such great people like Al Franken, Maxine Waters, Alan Grayson, and even playboy mag flipping John Conyers! Surely one of these challengers would surely beat Obama in the primary, let alone win a general elections. This is what happens when whiny, tantrum throwing progressive liberals get into power. They grab more power, and whine when they can’t get even more!
Figures – Obama forgets the Coast Guards at photo op in Afghanistan
Maybe Obama should have just called them Corpse Guards or something. Surely, he could at least remember that couldn’t he? Politico surprisingly actually admits that Obama needed a little help from the troops in Afghanistan on Friday to acknowledge the U.S. the Coast Guard. Watch the following video, where the crowd actually has to remind Obama to acknowledge the Coast Guards:
“We’ve got Army. We’ve got Navy. We’ve got Air Force. I think we may have a few Marines around, too. And a whole lot of folks from the 101st Airborne Division, the Screaming Eagles.”
Obama’s joker Claire McCaskill calls for Americans to take Up pitchforks if Democrats don’t get their way on Bush Tax cuts
Here is yet another fine example of a so called “centrist” Democrat. Obama’s joker Senator Claire McCaskill is trying to promote violence if Democrats don’t get their way on the Bush tax cuts, saying
“It Really Is Time For Americans To Take Up Pitchforks”
So called “centrist” Democrat Joe Manchin already breaks campaign promise on Bush tax cuts
Yea. Joe Manchin is a centrist. He isn’t going to vote along liberal party lines and be “independent.” Maybe instead of shooting the cap and trade bill in his campaign ad he should have shot the Bush tax cut bill instead. Don’t say people didn’t warn you West Virginia about this guy. As the Democrat’s Kabuki Theater continued today with their Bush Tax Cut bill of “up to a million dollars”, Manchin today broke a campaign pledge to not cast a Senate vote in favor of anything other than an across the board extension of the tax cuts. In a news release by the NSRC posted at The Hill, the committee said Manchin
More proof the Obama regime is a joke – White House speechwriter Jon Lovett wins Washington’s annual “Funniest Celebrity” competition
Here’s the video from Politico of White House speechwriter Jon Lovett. Apparently Lovett won some sort of “Funniest Celebrity” competition in Washington DC.

Obama FAIL! Unemployment rate spikes to 9.8% …. unexpectedly
How’s that progressive controlled economy working out for you? Surely today’s little “surprise” trip to Afghanistan had nothing to do with the horrendous job numbers that saw the national unemployment rate spike to a staggering 9.8%. Here’s the usual Reuters unexpectedly wording:
U.S. employment barely grew in November and the jobless rate unexpectedly hit a seven-month high, hardening views the Federal Reserve would stick to its $600 billion plan to shore up the anemic recovery.
Obama now claims he is a Blue Dog Democrat
Ok. Try not to puke. Or maybe try not to bust a gut laughing. In yet another New York Times puff piece on Obama, they are claiming that he actually believes he is a “Blue-Dog Democrat.”
The body of Mr. Obama’s writing and experiences before he became a presidential candidate would suggest that he is instinctively pragmatic, typical of an emerging generation that sees all political dogma — be it ’60s liberalism or ’80s conservatism — as anachronistic. Privately, Mr. Obama has described himself, at times, as essentially a Blue Dog Democrat, referring to the shrinking caucus of fiscally conservative members of the party.
The New York Times writer actually believes the crap he writes too:
Those who voted no on Rangel Censure include Alan Grayson, Anthony Weiner, and muslim Keith Ellison
The list also includes Barney Frank, Jesse Jackson Jr, Maxine Waters, and Sheila Jackson-Lee. Those were the usual suspects. Sadly, there were also two Republicans. One of which I really respected a lot too, Peter King of New York. The other Republican was Donald Young of Alaska. He must have had a Murkowski moment or something. Here’s the complete list from House.gov:

Charlie Rangel Censured 333-79 – Rangel gives snotty speech, Democrats give him standing ovation
Charlie Rangel gets his public slap on the wrist and was censured by a vote of 333-79.Aka a public slap on the wrist. Before the censure vote, there was a vote on a Butterfield amendment reprimand Rangel instead of censure. This is basically a smaller slap on the wrist than censure. This vote got 146 votes for, and 267 and failed. Three Republicans voted for the reprimand, two voted against censure. Look at how sad Botox Pelosi is reading the censure to Rangel:
Congressman Jack Kingston calls for closing all controversial taxpayer-funded Smithsonian Exhibits
It’s not just ant covered Jesus anymore. Jack Kingston of Georgia is calling for the removal of other tax payer funded exhibits at the Smithsonian which include (according to CNSNEWS): featuring images of brothers kissing, genitalia, cremated ashes from an AIDS suicide, men in chains and Ellen DeGeneres grabbing her breasts. Did you know you were paying for “art” like this? I didn’t either! Kingston wants them discontinued. And since I’m paying for it with my tax money, so do I!

Three Republicans including Ron Paul vote for Pelosi’s chicken crap tax bill
In one last attempt to play her political games, botox injected Nancy Pelosi got the votes she needed to furthur delay the full extension of the Bush tax cuts, and passed a bill for maintaining the Bush tax cuts for the “poor” and “middle class” only. This bill will likely die in the Senate, Pelosi and the far left Democrats in the House know this too. The chicken crap bill and stunt was described perfectly by incoming House Speaker John Boehner.
RINO Lindsey Graham moans the loss and says Russ Feingold will run against Obama in 2012
Sniff. First it was John McCain whining on the Senate floor about his pal Russ Feingold’s loss, now its McCain’s other buddy Lindsey Graham. For some reason, Laura Ingraham decided to have this jackwagon her show (what? Mike Castle wasn’t available?) Anyway he said according to The Hill:
Failure! Holder, Clinton and Freeman can’t get World Cup for America in 2022 while Obama whines like a baby
It’s like the Chicago 2016 Olympics all over again. Except this time Obama sent Eric Holder, Bill Clinton, and washed Hollywood actor Morgan Freeman. The result was the same as the Chicago Olympics, another country (in this case Qatar) won the 2022 World Cup. As if most people in America really care about some boring soccer games 12 years from now. Obama of course whined about the decision (from Fox News)
“I think it was the wrong decision,”
Boo Hoo. So another few million dollars of tax payer money wasted on the Holder,Clinton,Freeman junket to Zurich, Switzerland nets zero result again. Yet Obama still hasn’t made one comment on the Wikileaks issue. Oh and apparently Obama had told Holder to
“make clear that the United States has the capacity to host a World Cup that is both secure and welcoming to the people of the world.”
Maybe Eric Holder called us a nation of cowards again?
Obama regime spent $3,184,000 in taxpayer money on those lame Andy Griffith ObamaCARE ads
Just great! More of our tax payer money wasted! You’ve probably seen those stupid Andy Griffith Medicare/ObamaCARE ads on TV. Well, you’ve paid for it. In fact, we’ve spent over $3 million on those ads! $3,184,000 to be exact! Judicial Watch has obtained documents from the Obama Department of Health and Human Services regarding a series of three Medicare/ObamaCARE TV with Andy Griffith, . The Obama regime spent the $3,184,000 in taxpayer dollar between the months of September and October of this year to “educate” Medicare beneficiaries, caregivers, and family members about forthcoming changes to Medicare as a result of the Affordable Care Act. According to the documents released to Judicial Watch:
Republicans repeal Nancy Pelosi’s Select Committee on Global Warming
Sorry warmers! But another waste of tax payer money is going byebye. One of Nancy Pelosi’s wasteful committees was the “global warming committee” that was created in 2007. It’s goal according to Politico was to “draw attention” to the causes and effects of climate change. In another symbolic move by Republicans, this committee is toast. Obviously by cutting this faux panel it isn’t going to balance the budget, but its another sign that the waste created by the 111th congress is going to be mopped up.
Washington High school football player Ronnie Hastie penalized for pointing to the heavens after scoring a touchdown
I think i’ve figured the progressive liberal nuts out. All Ronnie Hastie had to do was get a rug, bend over, and pray to Allah in the end zone, and everything would be cool. In Tacoma, Washington, a running back named Ronnie Hastie scored a touchdown on a 23-yard run. After scoring, Hastie took a knee in the end zone and briefly pointed to the heavens above. What happened next zccording to KOMO is that the ref decided to throw a penalty flag for “unsportsmanlike conduct.”
Hastie claims that he has done the same thing in every high school football game he’s played, ie: a gesture to God after every touchdown he’s scored in every game and never had a problem before.
Bowing to Muslims again – Obama regime to impose drilling ban off Florida Coast – Uses BP spill as excuse
What a better way to get off our dependancy on foregin oil, than to impose drilling bans for America’s own resources! Remember $4-$5 per gallon gas? If you loved it then, you are you love it when it returns soon to a gas station near you! The Obama regime has flip-flopped and will not pursue offshore drilling off the East Coast of the U.S. and the eastern Gulf of Mexico. According to the Fox News/AP story, a senior regime official used the excuse of the BP oil spill. Ken Salazar’s Interior Department will now not propose any new oil drilling in waters off the East Coast for at least seven years.
Robert Gibbs says Obama not worried about Wikileaks because “It’s Only One Guy With One Website”
Well I’m glad Baghdad Bobbie Gibbs cleared things up! Obama regime isn’t concerened with the Wikileaks document dump, even though they had more than six months notice that it was coming. According to Gibbs, they aren’t concerned because Julian Assange is simply “One guy with a computer and domain name.” Whew, i’m glad they cleared that up aren’t you?
Schmuck Joe Biden can’t even conduct Mark Kirk’s swearing-in right
Yea, and Sarah Palin is the idiot, and would have been a dangerous Vice President right? As if all the other gaffes by the moron Joe Biden weren’t already bad enough, here’s another one to add to the list. He botched the swearing-in of Illinois Republican (RINO) Mark Kirk. Being that Biden is the Vice President, that makes him president of the Senate. So he is the responsible for swearing in newly elected Senators. Kirk, who was recently seated after winning Obama’s old seat followed Biden’s instructions to
“Please place your right hand on the Bible.”
and rose his left hand. Only problem here with idiot Biden is that according to the Chicago Tribune:
“Senators-elect affirm their oath to defend the U.S. Constitution by stepping forward, raising their right hand, and repeating the words spoken by the presiding officer. Some carry in their left hand a personal Bible or other sacred text.”
