				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Obama </strong>and his town hall meeting on <strong>CNBC</strong>:</p>
<p>An audience member says to him,</p>
<blockquote><p>My dad and I were talking about the Tea Party.  What will you do if these people are elected?</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>OBAMA: </strong></p>
<blockquote><p>America has a noble tradition of being healthfully skeptical about government.  That&#8217;s in our DNA.</p>
<p>We came in because, the folks, over on the other side of the Atlantic been, oppressing folks without giving reputation.  The problem with the debate that&#8217;s taken place, and, and some of these Tea Party events is I think they&#8217;re misidentifying sort of who the culprits are here.<strong> We had two tax cuts that weren&#8217;t paid for, two wars that weren&#8217;t paid for. We&#8217;ve got a population that&#8217;s getting older. We&#8217;re all demanding services but our taxes have actually substantially gone down, </strong>and so the &#8212; the <strong>challenge </strong>I think for the Tea Party movement is to identify specifically: What would you do?</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>No, the challenge of the Tea Party movement is to get rid of the Democrats who are creating this mess. </strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">The purpose of tax cuts is to, what&#8230; Pay for government? </span><br />
</strong><br />
<strong>That&#8217;s not the purpose of taxes.</strong> This whole premise here is misguided.</p>
<p>Tax cuts were not paid for?<strong> You don&#8217;t pay for tax cuts.</strong></p>
<p><strong>The whole concept of paying for tax cuts is foreign.  <span style="color: #ff6600;">It&#8217;s wrong.  It&#8217;s irrelevant. </span></strong></p>
<p>By the way, revenues to the US Treasury in <strong>2003 </strong>were in the neighborhood of <strong>$2.1 trillion.</strong> In <strong>2007</strong> revenues to the Treasury were in the neighborhood of <strong>two and a half trillion</strong> &#8211; <strong>Heritage Foundation</strong> citing numbers from the<strong> Obama administration Office of Management and Budget. </strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>So apparently government revenues went up from 2003 to 2007 after the Bush tax cuts.  Revenues went up. </strong></span></p>
<p><strong>The same thing happened in the 1980s. </strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;">So his whole premise is nothing but a lie. </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;">Government is the single greatest repository of greed in the world, Washington, DC, including even all the tyrannical dictators around the world.</span></p>
<p>All money is theirs and their little power games such that they believe you end up with whatever they deem is fair for you to have.</p>
<p><strong>You don&#8217;t pay for tax cuts. <span style="color: #ff6600;"> Tax cuts generate wealth creation. </span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;">The purpose of tax cuts is not to stimulate the government.  It&#8217;s to help the economy. </span></p>
<p><strong>The purpose of tax cuts is to stimulate growth and prosperity in the American people</strong>, which clearly Obama&#8217;s not interested in.</p>
<p>The welfare, the well-being, the prosperity of the American people is not at all something he&#8217;s concerned about.  Otherwise he would be in favor of tax cuts.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>Tax cuts are intended to leave money with the individual who earns the money.  Tax cuts are about private property rights.  Every dollar you earn is yours, until you are forced to pay taxes on it.  Then you have what discretionary income is left for you to spend as you choose. </strong></span></p>
<p>Now, taxes are necessary, everybody knows this.  But the way the Democrats look at it, taxes are a <strong>punishment</strong>. <strong> Taxes are a punishment for people doing too well.</strong> Taxes are <em><strong>class envy</strong></em>; taxes are a way to get even with other people; taxes are a way to buy votes for people who don&#8217;t think they&#8217;re doing well.</p>
<p>Now, the president said we had two wars that weren&#8217;t paid for.  Let me put it this way.  <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>Medicare is not paid for.  The war on poverty is not paid for.  Social Security is not paid for.  Medicaid is not paid for.  The Department of Education is not paid for.  The EPA is not paid for. </strong></span></p>
<p><strong>Why does he single out the Pentagon when the whole government is in deficit?  <span style="color: #ff6600;">Nothing </span></strong>is being paid for, Mr. President.  <strong>Nothing!  We&#8217;re bankrupt!  The country is broke.  We don&#8217;t have the money. </strong></p>
<p>Everything is adding up to a deficit.  Social Security isn&#8217;t paid for, Medicaid is not paid for, Medicare is not paid for, the Great Society, not paid for, war on poverty, not paid for.  This deficit&#8217;s government-wide.  We&#8217;ve got spending increases, all of the president&#8217;s new regulations. None of it&#8217;s paid for.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>We are on a deficit deathwatch.  That&#8217;s why the Tea Party exists.<br />
</strong></span><br />
Every penny the president spends today and from this day forward is not paid for.  Nothing is paid for that you are buying.  You&#8217;re not paying for a damn thing, Mr. President.  All of us are.  Everything you get&#8217;s gratis.  Your wife&#8217;s vacations, your trips on Air Force One, the perks and the parties.  <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>You&#8217;re the only one not paying for anything.</strong></span></p>
<p><strong>The rest of us are in hock for the rest of our lives because of people like you.  And you dare to insult us and say that two wars are not paid for, that our tax cuts have led to this problem? </strong></p>
<p><strong>You blame the people of this country?  You are single-handedly destroying the wealth creation engine of this country, and you have the audacity to go to a town hall meeting and <em><span style="color: #ff6600;">blame us? </span></em> </strong></p>
<p>Tax rates are not lower than after Kemp-Roth was passed.  Tax rates are not lower than they were in<strong> 1986.</strong> Tax rates are not lower than they were in <strong>1988. </strong> To the extent that taxes are lower than when Clinton was in office, that&#8217;s thanks to the<strong> Bush tax cuts.</strong><br />
<strong><br />
This president has intentionally bankrupted this country and now he claims that defense spending and tax cuts aren&#8217;t paid for?  But the rest of all his entitlements and the rest of his massive slush-fund spending, why, that&#8217;s paid for, how do you explain that? </strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>All the things he&#8217;s spending money on are paid for but a couple of wars aren&#8217;t? </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong><a href="http://frustrated-inc.com/?attachment_id=1835" rel="attachment wp-att-1835"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1835" title="deficits-war" src="http://frustrated-inc.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/deficits-war1.png" alt="" width="490" height="267" /></a></strong></span><a title="deficits w.wo irag war" href="http://www.americanthinker.com/2010/08/iraq_the_war_that_broke_us_not.html" target="_blank">American Thinker</a></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>So national security, which is a constitutional responsibility, was not paid for but all the rest of this massive bureaucracy is paid for?  Tax cuts, which allows people to keep more of what they&#8217;ve earned the following year is already being spent by the government this year, so they&#8217;re not paid for.</strong></span></p>
<p><strong>Nothing&#8217;s paid for, except his precious little programs.  But everything that impacts us is not paid for. </strong></p>
<p>He keeps spending.  He keeps running up deficits.  He keeps taking care of his <strong>union buddies</strong>, <strong>trial lawyer buddies</strong>, <strong>certain Wall Street buddies</strong>, and then there&#8217;s nothing left for those of you who pay the bills.</p>
<p>Suddenly he&#8217;s concerned about the budget and the deficit after he has single-handedly blown them up out of sight?</p>
<p>So essentially what we&#8217;re going to have to do is keep ponying up for <strong>Obama&#8217;s failures</strong>.  We&#8217;re going to have to keep ponying up to pay for<strong> socialism that doesn&#8217;t work.</strong> We&#8217;re going to have to keep ponying up to pay for huge salaries and benefits for bureaucrats and union people, and we&#8217;re going to have to hear all the while that defense and tax cuts aren&#8217;t being paid for.  This is our fault.  We had the audacity to accept the tax cut, and now we have to pay the price.</p>
<p><a href="http://frustrated-inc.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/projected4.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2123" src="http://frustrated-inc.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/projected4.jpg" alt="projected4" width="400" height="330" /></a></p>
<p><strong>This is all lies, it&#8217;s irresponsible, and more than anything else, it&#8217;s dangerous because <span style="color: #ff6600;">it&#8217;s destroying</span> the very engine of wealth creation that has defined the greatness of this country and has given people, not just in this country, but around the world, <em><span style="color: #ff6600;">hope</span></em>.</strong></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Obama inherits Petraeus. </strong></p>
<p>He didn&#8217;t hire Petraeus.  Petraeus was there. <strong> Petraeus was hired by George W. Bush. </strong></p>
<p>Obama&#8217;s constantly complaining about all the problems he inherited from Bush.  Now he&#8217;s inherited Petraeus. <strong> He got Bush&#8217;s general, <span style="color: #ff6600;">who his party and his voters hate.</span></strong></p>
<p>And by the way, <strong>MoveOn.org </strong>has removed their Petraeus ad from their website.</p>
<p><strong>Oh, yes.  Remember that full page New York Times ad, General Betray Us?  <span style="color: #ff6600;">It&#8217;s gone. </span><span style="color: #ff6600;"> It&#8217;s gone everywhere. </span></strong> And their good friends at like-minded Google have removed the ad from their caches, so you can&#8217;t see the ad.</p>
<p><em><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">Look. Go look for yourself, see if you can pull it up&#8230;</span></strong></em><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>They hated Petraeus, and now they&#8217;re praising Obama for one of the smartest moves he&#8217;s ever made?</strong></p>
<p>And let&#8217;s not forget the <strong>media</strong>.</p>
<p>The <strong>media </strong>was right in there <strong>beating up on Petraeus</strong> during the hearings in the Senate leading up to the surge.</p>
<p><strong>McChrystal </strong>was a four-star general.  He is gone.  We have not elevated anybody.  We simply took  <strong>Petraeus </strong>from his <strong>CENTCOM commander&#8217;s job</strong> and sent him to <strong>Afghanistan</strong>.</p>
<p><strong>They got rid of McChrystal because he was insolent, disrespectful, critical of the president&#8217;s policies.</strong></p>
<p>So they go out and they get rid of him<span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong> and they hire Bush&#8217;s general</strong></span>, and the same people who are mad at McChrystal for criticizing the policy now say they hope Petraeus can convince Obama to change the policy.</p>
<h3><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>We still have incompetence, we have cheerleading on parade, we do not have serious accountability going on here, nobody&#8217;s reporting any of this accurately, because it&#8217;s all about Obama.</strong></span></h3>
<p><strong>He hired Bush&#8217;s general. </strong></p>
<p>They&#8217;re celebrating because finally he&#8217;s acting like <strong>commander-in-chief.</strong></p>
<p><strong>The New York Times hated Petraeus so much they gave MoveOn.org a half-price deal on their full-page Betray Us ad. </strong>And they&#8217;re right in there with all of the rest of them today singing Obama&#8217;s praises.</p>
<p><strong>WHERE IS THE HEADLINE&#8230; OR EVEN A SUBHEAD:<br />
</strong></p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><strong>&#8220;Obama Turns to Bush General.&#8221; </strong></h3>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>It&#8217;s the truth.  It is precisely what&#8217;s happened out there. </strong></span></p>
<p><strong>Obama </strong>January 14th, 2007, during a discussion about the status of the Iraq war, and talking about the Petraeus&#8217; surge.</p>
<p><strong>OBAMA:</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>We cannot impose a military solution on what has effectively become a civil war.  And until we acknowledge that reality, we can send 15,000 more troops, 20,000 more troops, 30,000 more troops, I don&#8217;t know any expert on the region or any military officer that I&#8217;ve spoken to privately that believes that that is gonna make a substantial difference on the situation on the ground.</p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;">Doesn&#8217;t matter how many troops, it won&#8217;t work, no matter how many troops were sent. </span></p>
<p><strong>Biden</strong>, September 9, 2007, talking with Tim Russert<strong> on the eve of the Petraeus hearing</strong>:</p>
<p><strong>RUSSERT</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>General Petraeus said in a letter to his troops that we&#8217;ve not had the political reconciliation we thought we would have, been much slower, but there&#8217;s some hope.  Then he said my sense is that we have achieved tactical momentum.  We&#8217;ve wrested the initiative from our enemies in a number of areas of Iraq.  We are, in short, a long way from the goal line, but we do have the ball, we&#8217;re driving down the field.  Is that what you expect him to say tomorrow?</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>BIDEN:</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>I think he&#8217;s dead-flat-wrong.  The fact of the matter is that this idea of these security gains we made have had no impact on the underlying sectarian dynamic, none, none whatsoever.</p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;">That&#8217;s the current vice president of the United States saying Petraeus has no clue what he&#8217;s talking about. </span></p>
<p><strong>September 11, 2007</strong>, on Capitol Hill during the Senate Armed Services Committee hearing on Iraq, Senator <strong>Hillary Clinton said this to General Petraeus.</strong></p>
<p><strong>HILLARY: </strong></p>
<blockquote><p>You have been made the de facto spokesman for a failed policy.  The reports that you provide to us really require the willing suspension of disbelief.</p></blockquote>
<p>She just called him a liar.  She said he is nothing more than a stooge for the White House.  Hillary Clinton, now the secretary of state, this was just three years ago talking about General Petraeus, <span style="color: #ff6600;">who now represents the smartest move Obama has ever made. </span></p>
<p><strong>Nancy Pelosi, August 2, 2007</strong>, PBS NewsHour:</p>
<p><strong>LEHRER</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>From your perspective, Ms. Pelosi, what General Petraeus says in September about the surge is irrelevant in your mind?&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>PELOSI:</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>The purpose of the surge was to create a secure environment in which political progress could be made.  That has not happened.  The president&#8217;s own benchmarks are not being met.  The surge was to make the area more secure so that the political solution could take hold and the measure will be, okay, did the surge achieve its purpose?  Did the political progress occur?  Amending the constitution, calling for provincial elections, having a law for the fair distribution of oil in the region, reviewing the order on de-Ba&#8217;athification, some of the president&#8217;s own benchmarks.</p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;">Nancy Pelosi, one of the many Democrats who ripped General Petraeus. </span></p>
<p><strong>September 11th, 2007</strong>, Washington, Capitol Hill, during the Armed Services Committee hearing on Iraq policy, <strong>Senator Obama said this to General Petraeus.</strong></p>
<p><strong>OBAMA:</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>This is not a criticism of either of you gentlemen.  This is a criticism of this president and the administration which has set a mission for the military and for our diplomatic forces that is extraordinarily difficult now to achieve.  And there has been no acknowledgement of that on the part of this administration so that we have the president in Australia suggesting somehow that we are, as was stated before, kicking a-s-s.  How can we have a president making that assessment?</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>September 10th, 2007</strong>, Capitol Hill, the House Foreign Affairs Committee on Iraq.  <strong>Robert Wexler questioned Petraeus.</strong></p>
<p><strong>WEXLER: </strong></p>
<blockquote><p><strong>The surge has failed.</strong> In truth, war-related deaths have doubled in Iraq in 2007 compared to last year.  Tragically, it is my understanding that seven more American troops have died while we&#8217;ve been talking today.  Cherry-picking statistics or selectively massaging information will not change the basic truth.  It is my patriotic duty to represent my constituents and ask you about your argument that the surge in troops be extended until next year, next summer.  I am skeptical, General &#8212;</p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;">That&#8217;s Robert Wexler calling Petraeus a liar, essentially.  And now Petraeus, the best move Obama has ever made?</span></p>
<p><strong>Harry Reid, April 19, 2007</strong>, at a press conference talking about General Petraeus.</p>
<p><strong>REID: </strong></p>
<blockquote><p>I believe, myself, that the secretary of state, secretary of defense &#8212; and you have to make your own decision as to what the president knows &#8212; that this war is lost.</p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;">We&#8217;ve got an inept commander-in-chief. We got some of the media pretty much admits hasn&#8217;t been a commander-in-chief up until now &#8212;<strong> and I am still not inspired. </strong></span></p>
<p>We have the Media in uncontrollable joy over the choice of&#8230;<span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>Bush&#8217;s general! </strong></span></p>
<p>Who they all claimed to say was a lying and only doing Bush&#8217;s bidding.  They impugned his honesty and his integrity. They accused him of losing the war with his strategy.  <strong>Now, all of a sudden, this is the best move Barack Hussein Obama has ever made. Really??<br />
</strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>I think the intellectual dishonesty, the void here of any media integrity whatsoever to talk about what this story&#8217;s really all about, is striking. </strong></span></p>

<blockquote><p>&#8220;Is there to this point, thought of whether the government can do more, can it push BP out of the way like Salazar said if it feels like the company&#8217;s not doing their job?  What&#8217;s your response to that?&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>ALLEN</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Well, to push BP out of the way would raise the question, <strong>&#8220;To replace them with what?&#8221;</strong></p></blockquote>
<p><strong>REPORTER</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Do you think that this government right now is doing the best it can?</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>ALLEN</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>I&#8217;ve been involved with the technical decisions made, especially in relation to the deal with the leak, and they are pressing ahead, we&#8217;re overseeing them, they are exhausting every technical means possible to deal with that leak.</p>
<p>So Salazar said if they don&#8217;t get it done we&#8217;ll just push &#8217;em out of the way and we&#8217;ll bring in people with the appropriate action to get it done.  Coast Guard says, <strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">&#8220;Replace them with what?&#8221; </span></strong></p></blockquote>
<p>He obviously was not aware of what Salazar had said at BP headquarters in Houston.  Last weekend, Bob Schieffer talked to Robert Gibbs, the White House press secretary:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Do you think this could be your administration&#8217;s Katrina?&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>GIBBS</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Well, I think if you look back at what happened in Katrina, the government wasn&#8217;t there to respond to what was happening.  That, quite frankly, was the problem, even tracking the hurricane for days and knowing fairly precisely where it was going to hit.  I think the difference in this case is we were there immediately, we have been there ever since.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">That is a LIE. They&#8217;re still not there. </span></strong></p>
<p>The government did get there in the case of Katrina.  They did get there as quickly as they could and the local officials told them to get out.  Blanco said get outta here, I don&#8217;t want you guys getting credit for this, I&#8217;m a Democrat governor, I&#8217;ll take care of this. While School Bus Nagin was running around just beside himself here trying to explain why the buses weren&#8217;t used.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;The difference here is we were there immediately.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>They were not there immediately.  And when they were there they sent <strong>Salazar</strong> and <strong>Carol Browner</strong> to survey the problem.  The head guy, <strong>Tom Strickland &#8211; responsible for coordinating the federal response</strong>, was vacationing in the Grand Canyon and didn&#8217;t think it was serious enough to cut his trip short.</p>
<p>Obama is going on vacation for the second time since the oil spill happened and is reluctantly going to visit there on his way to vacation for the Memorial Day weekend and to check out the growing disaster.</p>
<p><strong>Douglas Brinkley</strong>, on <strong>CNN</strong> with <strong>Anderson Cooper </strong>says,</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;You have the secretary of the interior, Ken Salazar, saying we&#8217;re putting the boot on BP&#8217;s neck.  It doesn&#8217;t seem like there&#8217;s much pressure being applied to that boot if there&#8217;s any at all.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>BRINKLEY</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong> We haven&#8217;t had a bullhorn moment from President Obama, we haven&#8217;t heard the passion, and you know he&#8217;s sickened by all this.</strong> It&#8217;s a time we don&#8217;t need the cool collected Obama, we need the orator and the leader who&#8217;s emotive.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">Who is famous for using the bullhorn? </span></strong></p>
<p>Yeah, it&#8217;s Bush.  George Bush at Ground Zero, 9/11, the bullhorn moment.  The idiot, the dunce, the cowboy, all of those insulting things that were said about Bush.</p>
<p><strong>How do you know that?  Does he act sickened by it?  Or does he see an opportunity here to blame Big Oil, to stop offshore drilling, and to once again point the fingers at capitalism for being greedy and unkind, selfish, etc. </strong></p>
<p><strong>Is he really sickened by it?  We need a bullhorn moment?  We need a leader who&#8217;s emotive?  You know Obama&#8217;s got it in him, we just know he&#8217;s got it in him, why doesn&#8217;t he show up? </strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">Maybe that&#8217;s not who he is. </span></strong></p>
<p><strong>COOPER</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;It&#8217;s sort of fascinating, David, for a president who watched Katrina and saw the failures of the Bush administration, failures at the state and local level, for a president who saw that and was very critical of it, to now find himself in a situation in which he&#8217;s being criticized for the lack of response or lack of coordination is kind of stunning.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>GERGEN</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>The critics who are saying this is sort of a coming Katrina in slow motion have a point.  I&#8217;m very sympathetic with what the administration has &#8212; this is tough, it&#8217;s very tough.  And President Obama clearly cares and we have to appreciate that.  But it&#8217;s not enough simply to care; you&#8217;ve gotta take charge.  And we&#8217;ve reached that moment in this crisis when I think he has to take charge.</p></blockquote>
<p>He doesn&#8217;t act like he&#8217;s caring about it much.  He doesn&#8217;t act like he&#8217;s sickened.  If anything, he sounds angry that he is being distracted by this.  As president, you sit there and say, how is this gonna get fixed?  He wants it fixed so he can move on with the rest of his <strong>destructive domestic agenda. </strong></p>
<p>This is all politically inconvenient and we&#8217;ve reached the moment in crisis, gotta take charge.  He&#8217;s not a take-charge guy.  He&#8217;s an organizer and a Chicago thug.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;"> He&#8217;s not a leader.</span></strong></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Felipe Calderon&#8217;</strong>s speech to a joint session of Congress <strong>beating up on the Arizona law, criticizing the Arizona law and blaming us for all the guns in Mexico.</strong></p>
<p><strong>CALDERON</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>You will notice that the violence in Mexico started to grow a couple of hours before I took office in 2006.  This coincides, at least, with the lifting of the assault weapons ban in 2004.  I will ask Congress to help us, with respect, and to understand how important it is for us that you enforce current laws to stem the supply of these weapons to criminals and consider restating the assault weapons ban.</p></blockquote>
<p>Here he is blaming Bush.  He&#8217;s blaming all this stuff on his predator just as Obama does, and says he wants us to enforce current law.  But, no, he doesn&#8217;t want us to enforce current law. <strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">He doesn&#8217;t want us to enforce the current federal immigration law. He doesn&#8217;t want us to enforce Arizona&#8217;s immigration law. </span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">But he wants us to enforce an assault weapons ban.  So he comes here&#8230; </span></strong></p>
<p>Here Felipe Calderon blasting the United States and lecturing Arizona to thunderous applause from Democrats, a standing Ovation&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>CALDERON</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>I strongly disagree with your recently adopted law in Arizona.</p>
<p>It is a law that not only ignores a reality that cannot be erased by decree, but also introduced a terrible idea: Using rashal &#8212; racial profiling as a basis for law enforcement.  And that&#8217;s why I agree&#8230; I agree with president to say the new law carries a great amount of risk when core values that we don&#8217;t care about are breached.</p></blockquote>
<p>Ripping our country to a <strong>standing ovation of the Democrat Party. </strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong> What does he care about racial profiling? There is no racial profiling in the bill. This is just so purposely taken out of context.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I agree with the president who says the new law carries a great amount of risk.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Whose &#8220;<strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">core values</span></strong>&#8220;?</p>
<p>He comes here and disses our immigration law, blames the United States for all the guns in Mexico.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>I guess now it&#8217;s a human right to cross the US border.</strong></span> So these guys come in and Calderon says they&#8217;re getting guns here. They&#8217;re coming to America and picking up assault rifles in their quest for a better life.  The drug gangs down in Mexico are beheading people left and right, and it&#8217;s interesting to point out they have legalized drugs in Mexico.  They have legalized everything &#8212; the hard stuff, the soft stuff.</p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Calderon was on with Wolf Blitzer Wednesday night on CNN Situation Room. </span></strong></p>
<p><strong>BLITZER</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>What&#8217;s wrong with the folks in Arizona wanting to protect their border?</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>CALDERON</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>In Arizona, there is some racial profiling criteria in order to enforce the law that it&#8217;s against any sense of human rights; and, of course, is provoking very disappointing, uh, things &#8212; or very disappointing opinion &#8212; in Mexico and around the world, even here in America.  So to introduce this kind of elements, especially racial profiling aspect that are attempting against what we consider human rights, it&#8217;s the principle of discrimination which is against the values of this great nation.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;"><em>Who is he to preach to us?  For crying out loud, they deport more illegal immigrants from Mexico than we do! </em></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong><em>How do they catch their illegal immigrants?  Do they profile them?  How the hell do they find out who&#8217;s in their country illegally? </em></strong></span></p>
<p><strong>BLITZER</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>So if people want to come from Guatemala or Honduras or El Salvador or Nicaragua, they want to just come into Mexico, can they just walk in?</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>CALDERON</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>No!  They need to fulfill, uh, a form. They need to establish their right name. We analyze if they have not a criminal precedence.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>BLITZER</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Do Mexican police go around asking for papers of people they suspect are illegal immigrants?</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>CALDERON</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Of course! Of course!</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>BLITZER</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>If somebody sneaks in from Nicaragua or some other country in Central America through the southern border of Mexico and they wind up in Mexico, they can going get a job?</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>CALDERON</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>No, no, no.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>BLITZER</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>They can work?</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>CALDERON</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>If somebody do that without permissions, we send &#8212; we send back them.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Not everybody in this country is a liberal. </strong></p>
<p>There are a lot of Americans here who are gonna look at this and say,</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>&#8220;This guy is just an idiot.&#8221; </strong></p></blockquote>
<p>Answering those questions like that from Blitzer, he has no right from now on to say anything to us about our immigration law.  People can&#8217;t even get a job in Mexico unless they have &#8220;per-meee-sion&#8230;and if they do that, do that, we send &#8217;em back.&#8221;</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>How do they find out who they are in the first place?  You think they have to profile &#8217;em?</strong></span></p>
<blockquote><p><strong> &#8220;We analyze them.&#8221; </strong></p></blockquote>
<p>They&#8217;re very, very strict. You can&#8217;t own property, you can&#8217;t get involved in politics if you are an immigrant, legally in Mexico.  It&#8217;s very restrictive.  And he comes here and lectures us with the approval of the president of the United States and the Democrats in the House of Representatives, who gave it a standing Ovation.</p>
<p><strong>He comes here to lecture us about the way we are trying to enforce our own immigration law.</strong></p>
<p><strong>We got a foreign leader coming here and what&#8217;s on his teleprompter&#8217;s been written by whoever writes Obama&#8217;s words.  But then when he&#8217;s off the prompter and gets the question about Mexico&#8217;s own law, <span style="color: #ff6600;">we get the truth</span>.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Here is the main Mexico immigration law: </strong></p>
<blockquote><p>Mexico welcomes only foreigners who will be useful to Mexican society: * Foreigners are admitted into Mexico &#8216;according to their possibilities of contributing to national progress.&#8217; (Article 32)</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>Immigration officials must &#8216;ensure&#8217; that &#8216;immigrants will be useful elements for the country and that they have the necessary funds for their sustenance&#8217; and for their dependents. (Article 34)</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>Foreigners may be barred from the country if their presence upsets &#8216;the equilibrium of the national demographics,&#8217; when foreigners are deemed detrimental to &#8216;economic or national interests,&#8217; when they do not behave like good citizens in their own country, when they have broken Mexican laws, and when &#8216;they are not found to be physically or mentally healthy.&#8217; (Article 37)&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>All of those are reasons you can be barred from going into Mexico.</strong></span></p>
<blockquote><p>The Secretary of Governance may &#8216;suspend or prohibit the admission of foreigners when he determines it to be in the national interest.&#8217; (Article 38)</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>Mexican authorities must keep track of every single person in the country:* Federal, local and municipal police must cooperate with federal immigration authorities upon request, i.e., to assist in the arrests of illegal immigrants. (Article 73)</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>A National Population Registry keeps track of &#8216;every single individual who comprises the population of the country,&#8217; and verifies each individual&#8217;s identity. (Articles 85 and 86)&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>I could keep going&#8230;</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>A national Catalog of Foreigners tracks foreign tourists and immigrants (Article 87), and assigns each individual with a unique tracking number (Article 91).</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>Foreigners with fake papers, or who enter the country under false pretenses, may be imprisoned:* Foreigners with fake immigration papers may be fined or imprisoned. (Article 116)*</p></blockquote>
<p>In one week we have had this administration side with the Chinese against their own country and bring in the president of Mexico as a prop to mouth Obama&#8217;s words to a joint session of Congress beating up on the state of Arizona and the people who are there and the people who live there.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;">What&#8217;s happening here is a doubling down of playing the race card.  The president of the United States is continuing to divide this country while pretending to be this great unifier.</span></p>
<p>In one week, Michael Posner at the State Department tells the ChiComs&#8230;</p>
<p>(<strong><em>paraphrased</em></strong>)</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Yeah, we really have no business lecturing you because you&#8217;re right: We have some terrible problems in our own country right there in Arizona. That immigration law is very, very bad for human rights.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;">So for the first time in my life<strong>, agents of a communist government (China) come to our country and criticize us, and our administration agrees. </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;">And for the first time in my life a foreign president (ostensibly an ally) <strong>comes here to rip the sovereign state of Arizona, the sovereign United States and its laws &#8212; using language exactly like the president of the United States &#8212; and the Democrat members of Congress give him a standing ovation</strong></span><strong>. </strong></p>
<p><strong>Meanwhile&#8230;</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong> Mexicans are&#8230;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;taking the law into their own hands&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8220;Cops are being killed by the drug cartels just like in Arizona.  In the meantime, Felipe Calderon admits, &#8220;Oh, yes, of course we check people&#8217;s papers.  We find out if they are worth being here.  If they get a job and they have lied, they get sent home.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">All the while he&#8217;s telling us that we&#8217;re discriminating and violating our core values. </span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">Want to know what happened to reciprocity?  It&#8217;s called liberalism. </span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">You want to know what happened to prosperity? It&#8217;s called liberalism. </span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">You want to know what happened to economic opportunity and freedom? It&#8217;s called liberalism. </span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">There&#8217;s a giant disconnect: Liberalism from Americanism. </span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">It&#8217;s the plain, simple truth, for everybod<span style="color: #ff6600;">y to see</span></span></strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">.</span></p>
<p>It&#8217;s really no surprise to see Obama stand with Señor Wences against Arizona and the vast majority of people in the United States.  <strong>Is there any issue today &#8212; terrorism, health care, cap and trade, taxes, spending &#8212; where Obama stands with the majority of the American public?  <span style="color: #ff6600;">No</span>. </strong></p>
<p>people sponsoring amnesty are not even concerned about these people liking the country. They&#8217;re not even concerned about them understanding the country.  They aren&#8217;t even concerned about them becoming real citizens.  <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>All they want is their votes.</strong></span></p>
<p><strong>In fact the more economically challenged they remain, the poorer they remain, and as uneducated as they can be, the more dependent they will be. </strong></p>
<p>He&#8217;s clearly in need of these Hispanic votes.  He&#8217;s going to need &#8217;em in 2012 because he&#8217;s lost half the country.  If he hasn&#8217;t quite lost half the country, he&#8217;s on the way to losing half the country.<strong> <em><span style="color: #ff6600;">He knows it. </span></em></strong></p>
<p>Harry Reid is gonna need Hispanic votes if he has a prayer of saving his seat in Nevada in November.</p>
<p>We know there&#8217;s not going to be an amnesty bill before the election.  But there&#8217;s going to be a lot of talk about it, and they&#8217;re hoping that the talk will encourage Hispanics to go ahead and vote.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;The Democrats really care. They want us to have amnesty. They&#8217;re going to get it done. They can&#8217;t get it done now.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<h2><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">They&#8217;re hoping that will inspire support and votes, which is all this is about.</span></strong></h2>

<p>I probably should have named this  &#8220;My WTF list&#8221;  but, being a family friendly site, I will just leave it as is.</p>
<p>Due to site technical issues, and missing the past month of events, I would like to extend the confusing and deteriorating accomplishments of the current administration.</p>
<p>Original Post: Feb. 13  <a title="Obama accomplishments shine…" href="http://frustrated-inc.com/?p=1448">Obama accomplishments shine…</a> like a dim bulb.</p>
<p>In no particular order&#8230;</p>
<ul>
<li>The stimulus, slush fund has failed.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">How&#8217;s that &#8220;Hope and Change&#8221; working out for ya? </span></li>
<li>Obamacare has been rejected by a large majority of Americans.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">The silent majority has spoken. </span></li>
<li>Obama embarrassed himself twice in Copenhagen (Olympics and the Global Warming Hoax Conference ).<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">Take a bow for those, Obama. </span></li>
<li>The deficit and unemployment are destroying the Obama fiction, and the country&#8217;s identified Obama&#8217;s policies as the problem.</li>
<li>Democrat candidates were humiliated in New Jersey, Virginia, and Massachusetts, and guess what? Patrick Kennedy has said he&#8217;s not running for reelection in Rhode Island. He&#8217;s got a 62% disapproval&#8230;<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">Can&#8217;t wait till the 2010 elections.</span></li>
<li>Generic polls favor Republicans by huge margins.</li>
<li>Sarah Palin is getting write-ups now in the Mindless Media that Barack Obama would kill for.  Joe Klein and David Broder, the same day, wrote 90% lauding favorable pieces of Sarah Palin.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">You go, girl! </span></li>
<li>Of course, then there&#8217;s Robert Gibbs. We have to feel sorry for Obama because of Baghdad Bob Gibbs &#8211;&#8220;We&#8217;ve seen in survey after survey that Americans want to see Republicans and Democrats stand together on health care.&#8221;<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">&#8230;stand together <strong><em>AGAINST</em></strong> health care.</span></li>
<li>Guantanamo Bay is still open.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">God Bless the U.S. Military.</span></li>
<li>Obama will not drop the idea of trying Khalid Sheikh Mohammed in New York City.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">I don&#8217;t think we&#8217;ve heard the end of this from the Big Apple. </span></li>
<li>Michelle Obama has told the world that her daughters are fatties.</li>
<li>ClimateGate, a total hoax, has been exposed. Record cold temperatures worldwide over the past year, mind-numbing blizzards and Algore nowhere to be found.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">If it doesn&#8217;t snow, it&#8217;s a sign of global warming&#8230; If it snows to much, it&#8217;s a sign of global warming&#8230;  Am I missing something here? Really, that&#8217;s what it comes down to?  What has happened to common since?<br />
Oh, right, we&#8217;re all just idiots&#8230; </span></li>
<li>Obama embraces bank bonuses after trashing them for a year.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">Sounds a bits schizophrenic.</span></li>
<li>Obama prematurely and awkwardly gives away the lie of not taxing the hell out of the middle class.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">Shocking, eh? </span></li>
<li>Joe Biden has, in effect, said mission accomplished to Bush and Cheney for their brilliant policy in Iraq by claiming it&#8217;s one of the greatest achievements of the Obama administration.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">We&#8217;ve moved from schizophrenic to delusional. </span></li>
<li> The tea parties are working.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">Thank God. </span></li>
<li> There&#8217;s this story from The Politico: &#8220;Family Feud: Pelosi at Odds with Obama.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;House Speaker Nancy Pelosi&#8217;s increasingly public disagreements with President Barack Obama are a reflection of something deeper: the seething resentment some Democrats feel over what they see as cavalier treatment from a wounded White House.&#8221;<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">Modern day &#8216;three stooges&#8217; &#8212; Obama, Pelosi and Reed.</span></li>
<li>And then of course Dingy Harry has pulled the jobs bill. He&#8217;s reducing it from $85 billion to $15 billion.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">The only &#8216;jobs&#8217; this administration understands &#8211; Union and Government Bureaucracy employment.</span></li>
<li>The deadly shooting attack by Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad on a military recruiting center in Little Rock, Arkansas in May 2009 that killed a US soldier and injured another.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">Lets not assume he&#8217;s Muslim.  That would be acting &#8220;<strong>Stupidly</strong>&#8220;.  Terrorist 1, Obama 0.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #ffffff;">Obama takes three days to respond to the </span><span style="color: #ffffff;">C</span><span style="color: #ffffff;">hristmas underwear Bomber&#8230; three days! If not for luck, the attack would have claimed the lives of at least 300 people, not to mention those who might have died on the ground.</span><br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;"> I do not believe our security should rely on luck&#8230; do you? Terrorist 2, Obama 0.</span></li>
<li>Obama Refuses to Call Ft. Hood Massacre an Act of Terror.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">A shooting that killed 13 and wounded scores of others, preceded by a SHOUT OUT&#8230; Priorities, anyone? Terrorist 3, Obama 0. <strong>Feeling safe yet??</strong></span></li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="color: #ff6600;">May 5, 2010 : Revised additions </span></h3>
<ul>
<li>Pelosi: “But we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it, away from the fog of the controversy.&#8221;<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">This is how Liberals legislate. Be afraid&#8230; very afraid. </span></li>
<li>Obamacare becomes law.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">Democrats ignore overwhelming public opposition to ObamaCare and pass it anyway, and Obama continues to &#8216;Sell&#8217; his plan to no avail.</span></li>
<li>Obama takes over ALL Student Loans, under the cover of Obamacare, hidden in 2400 pages of socialist transformation.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">Did you even know the name of the bill? Health Care and <strong>Education Reconciliation Act </strong>of 2010</span></li>
<li>Obama snubbed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;"> Not a problem meeting with Cuba or Iran, with friends like that, who needs allies?</span></li>
<li>Obama refuses to call Massacre at Ft. Hood an Act of Terrorism. President hides behind irrational political correctness again.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">How can we fight terrorism, when the Commander in Chief won&#8217;t even acknowledge it.</span></li>
<li>War on Terror renamed by Obama Administration.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">No such thing as &#8216;Islamist terrorism&#8217; in ObamaWorld.  Man Made Disaster? Overseas Contigency Operation?</span></li>
<li>Obama excludes private and Catholic school children from the Easter egg roll ticket giveaway.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">A Uniter, </span><em><span style="color: #ff6600;">Not A Divider</span></em><span style="color: #ff6600;">? Respect for religion? Really?</span></li>
<li>Obama announces that he will approve oil and gas exploration.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">If you believe this one, I have some swampland in Florida to sell you.</span></li>
<li>Obama and Russian President Dmitry Medvedev sign the latest Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START)<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">Damn&#8230; I feel more secure already.  Love those Communist&#8230;Ya know they don&#8217;t lie.</span></li>
<li>&#8220;NASA Administrator Charlie Bolden said Tuesday that President Barack Obama has asked him to &#8216;find ways to reach out to dominantly Muslim countries&#8217; as the White House pushes the space agency to become a tool of international diplomacy.&#8221;<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">Hu?? WTF&#8230; When did NASA become a Public Relations Department?</span></li>
<li>Obama hasn’t held a formal press conference in almost a year.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">Where is the Media? Do dictators have to answer questions? Guess not.</span></li>
<li>Obama administration continued &#8216;War&#8217; on Tea Party Patriots. Racist, bigoted, violent, ignorant, hate-filled, intolerant&#8230;<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">Why does the administration and it&#8217;s subordinates continue to defame the most patriotic, God-loving, law abiding, compassionate citizens I&#8217;ve ever met?</span></li>
<li>Army Disinvites Franklin Graham from National Day of Prayer Event.<br />
<strong>Obama</strong>:&#8221;&#8230;we have a very large Christian population &#8212; we do not consider ourselves a Christian nation&#8230;&#8221;<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">USA ranks #1 in National Christian Population.  225 Million / 85% of the Population. Maybe he wants to transform America to a Muslim Nation??</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #ff6600;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #ffffff;">Obama&#8217;s Katrina &#8211; Despite plan, not a single fire boom on hand on Gulf Coast at time of oil spill.</span><br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">A crisis is a terrible thing to </span><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">waste</span></strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">, when you can blame it on</span><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;"> BIG OIL.</span></strong></span></span></li>
<li>Governor Jan Brewer signed an immigration law that launched a national debate. Obama called the effort &#8220;misguided&#8221; and directed the Justice Department to monitor its implementation, warning that it could violate citizens&#8217; civil rights.<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">Obama and his regime govern against the will of the people. CBS Poll: 60 percent of Americans say Arizona&#8217;s tough new immigration law is &#8220;about right&#8221; or &#8220;doesn&#8217;t go far enough.&#8221; Are you listening, Washington?</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #ff6600;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #ffffff;">Times Square attempted car bombing, once again, lucky the bomb didn&#8217;t go off.  Obama spent about 50 seconds reassuring us that nothing had happened and nothing will happen, everything&#8217;s okay in New York, now back to the economy&#8230;</span><br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;">Do I </span><em><span style="color: #ff6600;">feel lucky</span></em><span style="color: #ff6600;">? Well, do </span><em><span style="color: #ff6600;">ya</span></em><span style="color: #ff6600;">, </span><em><span style="color: #ff6600;">punk</span></em><span style="color: #ff6600;">? &#8230;  Terrorist 4, Obama 0.<br />
</span></span></span></li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="color: #ff6600;">May 13, 2010 : addition</span></h3>
<ul>
<li>Holder said at a House Judiciary Committee hearing when asked had he read the state law cracking down on illegal immigrants. &#8212; Fox News: May 13, 2010<br />
<span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>Wondering if anyone in Washington actually reads anything&#8230; </strong></span></li>
</ul>
<p>Unfortunately I see no end to this post and the troubling issues it exposes.</p>
