White House Luncheon

Presidential Guest’s at the Obama White House are reminded not to forget to bring their credit cards.

Uncouth…

TSA Screener

TSA definitely instills a lot of confidence in Airport Security:

Obama Latest Poll Numbers

In the latest Wall Street Journal/NBC News Poll Obama & Democrat-Socialists continue to sink rapidly and the percentage of people that approve of the way that Obama is handling the economy has fallen below 50% for the first time.

ObamaCare is taking a toll on the President’s approval with only 41% of American approving of the way Obama is handling the Health Care debate, while 46% disapprove.

Democrat-Socialist’s have lost the confidence of the American people, while the GOP have taken a six-point advantage—On the related issue, controlling government spending, in 2007 Democrats held a 16 point advantage over Republicans, now all that has changed with the GOP now holding a 9 point lead.

Obama Economic Stimulus, Tall On Promises

Obama Economic Stimulus Promising Jobs

Obama is Tall on promises, just really short on results.

In Oregan where lawmakers spent $176 Million Dollars of the Economic Stimulus money, Democrat-Socialists are taking credit in creating 3,226 new jobs in the first 3 months.

These Loony Liberals left out a whole heck of a lot in their story, what didn’t they tell us, is more important than what they did.

The 3,226 jobs were Temporary—only 35 hours, after that the workers were let go and were again unemployed.

Obama has aura but just can’t legislate

Obama Cult Craze

Via Washington Examiner

Aura dazzles but argument gets things done. Consider the debate on the Democrats Health Care bill and the increasingly negative response to Barack Obama’s performance. Democrats have the numbers to pass the Health Care bill—256 votes in the House, 38 more than the 218 majority; 60 votes in the Senate, enough to defeat a filibuster but they haven’t come up with arguments, at least not yet, to put those numbers on board. Its something not many predicted that bright January inauguration morning.

We knew that day Obama was good at aura, at generating enthusiasm for the prospect of hope and change. His inspiring speeches—the Jefferson Jackson Day Dinner in Des Moines, Iowa, the race speech in Philadelphia, the countless rallies in primaries, caucus and target states—helped him capture the Democratic nomination and then win the Presidency by the biggest margin in 20 years.

It turns out, that Obama is not so good at argument. Inspiration is one thing, persuasion another. He created the impression on the campaign trail that he was familiar with the major issues and regularly ticked off his positions on them but he has not proved so good at legislating.

CHINA-USA/

What a pair, definitely enthusiastic, jubilant, ecstatic for sure at the U.S.-China Strategic and Economic Dialogue this week in Washington.

Unsure if the Chinese were as rapturous, given the fact that the U.S. Economy during Obama’s watch has been in the tank while China is the largest foreign creditor to the USA holding $801.5 Billion in our Debt Securities.

China Censorship

Chinese Internet Censors have now blocked ABC News Blogs but all hope is not los for “fair and balanced news” most of FOX News blogs can still be accessed.

On the 06 January, I wrote here that free speech is essential in the pursuit of learning, every idea or thought is not an avenue of incitement, censorship only results in the pursuit in finding cracks in the Great Firewall of China.
