President Obama’s Budget Plan WTF

Obama WTF

President Obama’s budget plan is Called “Winning The Future,” or WTF for short. You can start reading your own copy of it on your kindle in under a minute. According to the official White House web site, “To win the future, we have to out-innovate, out-educate and out-build the rest of the world, tapping the creativity and imagination of our people. We have to take responsibility for our deficit, by investing in what makes America stronger and cutting what doesn’t. And we have to reform our government so that it’s smarter, leaner, and better able to take on the challenges of the 21st century.” WTF for a brighter tomorrow.

Here is a video from Jack Lew, the director of the White House office of management and budget. He borrows one of Glen Beck’s old white boards and uses red and blue lines to show how the Obama budget is working despite what things look like.

Mitt Romney, You Had Your Turn Madam

Posted on August 25, 2011 by Alan Cosgrove

Mitt Romney got into a bit of an exchange with a voter during a town hall meeting in New Hampshire. Romney told the lady, “You had your turn. You had your turn madam! Let me have mine, let me have mine. Listen, I’ll give you have the microphone in a moment, but let me complete. I’m sorry, it’s my turn. You had yours, now it’s my turn. Would you please hold on a moment and let me finish? Good, this is the answer. My state of Massachusetts – . Look, let me speak, then you get to speak, ok? Just hold on a moment. Just hold on. I’m happy to have your question. Madam, hold on a second, hold on a second.” I’m not sure the crazed look is presidential.

Herman Cain Stands With Us

Posted on August 25, 2011 by Alan Cosgrove

Herman Cain has released a second ad in his “Herman Cain stands with us” campaign. According to the Cain campaign team, “In the second video of the series, we visit Merrie Thomsen, a wife and mother of three boys from Southern California. Merrie and her husband Jerry, who is an LA County firefighter, created the 9/11 Rose Bowl Parade float because they wanted to honor the 10 year anniversary of 9/11. The float’s theme was “Remember. Reflect. Renew.” She supports Herman Cain because, “We need to get those politicians out and we need to get a business person in. I stand with Herman Cain because he stands with us.””

Maxine Waters Helps Rick Santorum Raise Money

Posted on August 24, 2011 by Alan Cosgrove

Rick Santorum is using Maxine Waters (D-Calf) latest rants about the Tea Party to collect campaign cash. In the video Waters tells the Tea Party members to “go straight to hell.” Santorum sent out a letter saying, “During this time of uncertainty in our country, I can’t imagine that someone who uses this type of hateful rhetoric actually holds elected office. As I told a reporter yesterday when asked about these disparaging comments, “This is the left in America, they absolutely despise the founding principles of this country that believe in free people and believe in limited government. If you believe like I do that the government should be the voice of the people and that people should not be harshly criticIzed by members of their own government for caring about his country, then please make a contribution today!” Santorum says, “This is another example of the lack of leadership from the Democratic party and our own President, when they refuse to condemn this type of hateful speech. Mr. President – why do you and your party hate “tea party” members when all they want is what is best for this country & its future?”

Here is the video of Waters that Santorum uses;

I would suggest another video for Santorum from all the way across the country. Representative Frederica Wilson (D-FL) told a South Florida crowd, “Let us all remember who the real enemy is. The real enemy is the Tea Party — the Tea Party holds the Congress hostage. They have one goal in mind, and that’s to make President Obama a one-term president.”

Obama Admits He Is Unpatriotic and Irresponsible

Posted on August 24, 2011 by Alan Cosgrove

Currently there is a video hitting all the blogs with candidate Obama calling Bush irresponsible and unpatriotic for running up 4 billion in debt over his 8 years as President. President Obama has already ran up 4 billion more in about 2.5 years. The video is from a July 3rd, 2008 campaign stop. According to candidate Obama, “The problem is, is that the way Bush has done it over the last eight years is to take out a credit card from the Bank of China in the name of our children, driving up our national debt from $5 trillion for the first 42 presidents – #43 added $4 trillion by his lonesome, so that we now have over $9 trillion of debt that we are going to have to pay back, $30,000 for every man, woman and child. That’s irresponsible. It’s unpatriotic.”

Ron Paul Has Yet To Meet Fellow Texan Rick Perry

Posted on August 24, 2011 by Alan Cosgrove

Ron Paul said in an interview that he has not yet met fellow Texan Governor Rick Perry. Paul has been a Texas congressman for over 20 years and Perry is the longest serving Governor of Texas with about 10 years. “I do not recall having ever met him or had a conversation,” said Paul to KHOU, Houston. When asked why Paul said, “I have no idea. I mean, I didn’t extend myself to ask for an invitation to come to the governor’s mansion, but it is true that over the years, although I had my disagreements with both President Bush senior and junior, I met both of them.”
