The country is in the very best of hands

2013_11 16 Thus Spake Obama

The following is excerpted from “Thus Spake Obama” by Mark Steyn

http://www.nationalreview.com/article/364093/thus-spake-obama-mark-steyn

Five years ago, Barack Obama assured us:

“I know more about policies on any particular issue than my policy directors.”

Well, apart from his signature health-care policy. That’s a mystery to him.

“I was not informed directly that the website would not be working,” he told us.

The buck stops with something called “the executive branch,” which is apparently nothing to do with him. As evidence that he was entirely out of the loop, he offered this:

“Had I been I informed, I wouldn’t be going out saying, ‘Boy, this is going to be great.’ You know, I’m accused of a lot of things, but I don’t think I’m stupid enough to go around saying, ‘This is going to be like shopping on Amazon or Travelocity,’ a week before the website opens, if I thought that it wasn’t going to work.”

Ooooo-kay. So, if I follow correctly,

  • the smartest president ever is not smart enough to ensure that his website works;
  • he’s not smart enough to inquire of others as to whether his website works;
  • he’s not smart enough to check that his website works before he goes out and tells people what a great website experience they’re in for.

But he is smart enough to know that he’s not stupid enough to go around bragging about how well it works if he’d already been informed that it doesn’t work.

So he’s smart enough to know that if he’d known what he didn’t know he’d know enough not to let it be known that he knew nothing.

The country’s in the very best of hands.

MØST MØRAL ADMINISTRATIØN? NØT EVEN CLØSE!

Here’s another one for the Most Corrupt and Incompetent Administration EVER file.

Remember the Project Veritas video I sent out showing ObamaCare Navigators telling undercover reporters to lie on their applications?

2013_11a Project Veritas - NUL You should lie

2013_11b Project Veritas - NUL I always lie

The National Urban League (NUL) received a federal Health Navigator Grant from the Department of Health and Human Services in August 2013.

  • The current president and CEO of National Urban League (NUL) is Marc Morial.
  • Morial was appointed by Obama to sit on the President’s Advisory Council on Financial Capability in 2012.
  • Morial’s wife, Michelle Miller, is a CBS News correspondent and occasional substitute news anchor.

More about the ObamaCare Navigators:

In early August, Gov. Bob Jindal (R-La.) exposed the lack of training required to become a navigator, the flimsy background checks for those hired, and the massive potential for identity theft.

“The ‘navigators’ will be required to take only 20 hours of online course training, which will apparently make them experts on the 1,000 page ObamaCare bill,” Jindal wrote in an op-ed published on Fox News. “To make matters worse, these ‘navigators’ are going to have access to all kinds of personal information that will make the whole program ripe for fraud.”

Last week, during the Senate Finance Committee hearing, Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Kathleen Sebelius admitted there was no federal requirement for navigators to undergo a criminal background check before being hired and gaining access to applicants’ personal information.

When Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) asked her to clarify if a “convicted felon could be a navigator and could acquire sensitive personal information from an individual unbeknownst to them?”, Sebelius admitted, “This is possible.”

LØSER!

2013_11 14 Ocare on the way to a train wreck by Terrell

One month ago, the Fox New poll showed Democrats ahead by 8 points in the generic congressional ballot.

Republicans now lead by 3 points.

2013_11 12 FOX poll - BHO approval

2013_11 12 FOX poll - BHO approval specifics

Nov 13: HHS reported that “more than 100,000 people have selected a health care plan through the ObamaCare exchanges.” NOTE the use of the key word: SELECTED. Obama wanted to have 500,000 health care plans PURCHASED by October 31. It’s mid-November and the best they can claim is that 100,000 people have managed to get into the web site, make an account, shop the plans, and choose one to put into their online shopping carts. Unless and until these people go back and again manage to get into the web site, access their accounts, open their shopping carts and click on BUY, the “100,000 people have selected” means exactly nØthing.

Nov 13: House Democrats delivered a fix-it-or-else ultimatum to President Obama, giving him until Friday to produce an affordable solution for the millions of Americans losing their health plans under ObamaCare — or risk some of them jumping ship and backing the Republican solution to allow all Americans to enroll in any current policy, even if it is banned by ObamaCare. Naturally, since the Democrats are in an uproar and his signature legislation is a train wreck, Captain ZerØ left town to enjoy yet another fundraiser with his glitterati bffs. He’ll also give a speech on not-healthcare so he can charge taxpayers for the trip.

Brief news items

Some of these are from Pete’s report, but some are from Facebook and my email. I forgot to mark which were which, so please forgive the repeats.

TYPHOON HAIYAN: The U.S. military’s Pacific Command is helping relief efforts in the wake of Typhoon Haiyan. The U.S. effort is expected to include at least 90 Marines and sailors as well as a cargo planes and helicopters.

A FIRST CLASS THANK YOU: A small group of First Class passengers swapped tickets with a group of vets returning from Afghanistan, so they could enjoy a more comfortable ride on the last leg of their 3-day journey home.

HHS MANDATE: The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit voted 2-1 against the HHS mandate requiring all businesses to pay for birth control or abortion-causing drugs for its employees, regardless of the religious or conscience objections of the owners. The court also ruled the defendants cannot be forced to abide by mandate while the Obama administration appeals to the Supreme Court.

BHO APPROVAL GAP: The latest RCP average shows the largest spread of Obama’s presidency at -11.2 points (approvals minus disapprovals). The largest previous gap was -10.2 points in August 2011.

DEM CRONYISM: Washington Examiner reported the Obama DOE has again shoveled tax dollars into Dem donor businesses. Nine of the 14 grants went to firms that gave more than $100,000 each to Democrats and Left-leaning groups.

BUT WHAT HAVE THEY DONE FOR THE HOMIES? The national unemployment rate for 16-19 year olds is 7.3%. The unemployment rate for blacks in this age group is 36.0% …. 393% higher than the national unemployment rate.

BUT AT LEAST THEY GET FOOD STAMPS, RIGHT? Uh, not so much. Food stamp allotments are going down, not because of Eeeevil Republicans, but because Obama the Caring has taken money from the food stamp program to help fund his wife’s anti-obesity initiative, the “Let’s Move” program.

BØGUS: The White Hut claims they’re going to finally release an official number of ObamaCare sales. However, an administration official told WaPo they’re going to count in people who have placed policies in their online shopping carts, but haven’t actually purchased them.

MØRE GØØFS: The Seattle Times reported the state’s ObamaCare Web site messed up their numbers. Nearly 8,000 Washington state residents will soon find out they will be paying more for ObamaCare than they were told when they purchased it.

CØVER UP: The White House won’t allow their computer boss to testify about why he didn’t do his job in the first place cuz, you know, he’s too busy trying to make the damn website work … six weeks after it was opened for business.

HEALTHCARE.GOV: Scam-artist web pages pretending to be Healthcare.gov are tricking people into divulging sensitive information or buying fake products. Important consumer warning: If an insurance shopping website is usable, it’s not the federal government’s.

WE TOLD THEM BUT THEY WOULDN’T LISTEN: “Had Americans known that Obamacare would actually raise premiums and cause millions of folks to lose their health policies, it never would have become law.” –Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas

Obama Democrats stealing from AIDS victims? Yawn.

It’s been TWO MONTHS since the Chicago SUN-TIMES published this story:

2013_09 09 13 charged, 6 pled guilty

Aren’t we glad Democrats are taking over the entire health care system in the country? Cuz like they’re so ABOVE us all in the caring, compassion, trustworthiness and knowing better than we do what’s best for our families departments?

When I googled “13 charged embezzle”, these were the top hits.

Top hits for 13 charged embezzle google

I didn’t find a major news outlet reporting on this until page three of my search results … and that was a FOX story about a DIFFERENT case of embezzlement.

Can anyone honestly say this would not have made national headline news instantly if the sticky-fingers had belonged to 13 REPUBLICANS, particularly if two of them had ties to any of the people Obama and his cronies loathe and despise?

Remind me again how much publicity the Left Stream Media gave to George Zimmerman who was ACQUITTED and how much they did NOT give to abortionist Kermit Gosnell who was CONVICTED?

Media bias (again and again and again)

EVERY time there’s a violent crime in the headlines, the Left Stream Media immediately starts screaming RIGHT WINGNUT, TEA PARTY and DAMN THE NRA.

A day or two later, after somebody who is an actual journalist finds out who the perp actually was, the Left Stream Media is suddenly Oh-So-Uninterested in what always turns out to be that person’s LEFT WINGNUT political affiliations.

It happened again this week with the LAX shooter. I saw lefties tweeting anti-right slogans even as the shooter was still unknown and at large. But, as per usual, the LAX shooter (aka, Paul Anthony Ciancia) was a registered Democrat.

Proof that Republicans are NICER than Democrats

Looking at the 16 point jump from Obama’s 2008 popular vote and his inauguration week approvals got me wondering if disappointed presidential voters traditionally give a big old Atta Boy to the new president they didn’t want.

So I did a historical search and ranked the results by the size of the Atta Boy, then colored them by party. Note: I ignored second term election/inauguration stats, because I only wanted to see how disappointed voters responded to a relatively unknown new president.

What you’ll see below is that Atta Boys have been highest when a DEMOCRAT won and lowest when a REPUBLICAN won. In other words, disappointed Republicans have been significantly MORE willing to accept and cheer on a new Democrat president than Democrats have been willing to accept and cheer on a new Republican president.

REPUBLICANS are nicer than DEMOCRATS

More of that Democrat Civility

The Republican candidate for Virginia’s next Lt. Governor is Conservative Black Christian, E.W. Jackson. He believes in marriage between one man and one woman and he pulls no punches when he compares the Planned Parenthood abortion business with the KKK.

“The justification for slavery is in a sense the same as the justification for unfettered abortion, which is, the victim is not a real person, he’s not a human being and therefore has no rights that we are bound to respect.”

As per usual … Lefties freely hurl racial epithets like “Uncle Tom” in his direction, because Democrats totally believe that everyone with dark skin belongs on the Democrat plantation. Cuz … you know … people with dark skin are too stooooooooooooopid to think for themselves. /sarc

And just to cross all the tees in “There is no such thing as Democrat Civility”, Jackson’s White Democrat opponent, Ralph Northram, refused ON CAMERA to shake his hand or even make eye contact with him. (See at 6:30 in video linked below.)

2013_11 04 White Dem refuses to shake hands with Black Rep

Northram and the Democrat’s pick for governor, Terry McAuliffe, have portrayed themselves as centrists, ever ready to “reach across the aisle” … but the video shows Northam won’t even reach across his chair.

And speaking of Democrat Hypocrisy … last week, some Tolerant Democrat vandalized one of Jackson’s signs with white paint. Can you imagine the RAAAAAAAAAAACISM outcry if Jackson were a Democrat?

2013_10 28 Black Republican candidate's sign defaced

Also, in local “Democrat Civility” news … we had GOP yard signs stolen again this week. You just gotta love that hands-across-the-aisle, First-Amendment-respecting, coexisty-tolerance, dontcha?
