Reality vs. Obamanonics
According to our Dear Leader’s Keynesian fantasies, unemployment should be under 6% and falling.
Instead, reality got in the way, and his massive deficit spending has resulted in unemployment at 8.2% and real unemployment over 14%.
This is just one reason he and his allies are desperate to talk about anything besides his record.
Just to make sure you’re getting this, let’s look at another version of this graph.

Why is the left against fighting vote fraud?
Filed under: Culture of Corruption, Our Dear Leader, Politics
One would think that our federal government would all for protecting the basic civil rights of American citizens by aggressively fighting voter fraud.
This is not under the Obama regime. Let us review several examples.
First, our Dear Leader’s so-called “Justice Department” has stopped the state of Florida from removing dead people from the voter rolls. Really. You can’t make this stuff up. Investors Business Daily has an article on the topic that sums the problem nicely.
Washington has ordered Florida to end its effort to remove ineligible voters from the state’s voter rolls. This is breathtaking. It couldn’t be clearer that the government is actively promoting voter fraud.
Somehow, the DOJ has determined that purging illegal voters — felons, noncitizens, the deceased — from the rolls is a violation of the 1965 Voting Rights Act as well as the 1993 National Voter Registration Act. According to the Miami Herald, the department’s lead civil rights attorney, T. Christian Herren Jr., sent the state “a detailed two-page letter” on Thursday demanding that Florida’s elections division shut down its pursuit.
…
What’s missing from Herren’s complaint is the fact that no one is actually moved off the rolls until they are found to be ineligible. Simply sending names to county elections supervisors to confirm eligibility, which is what Florida officials are doing, discriminates against no one. Either the person is eligible to vote or not.
No one is harassed or summarily tossed off the voter rolls. There is no poll tax or literacy test.
Why is the Obama administration afraid of purging the dead from the active voter rolls?
RightGirl points out that when actually shown evidence of how easy voter fraud is, the Obama administration’s so called “Justice Department” ignores the problem.
Oh, we have found one case where democrats are not calling a requirement to show a photo ID in order to vote. Their own state party convention in Massachusetts.

Obama Promised To Cut The Deficit Six Times. Reality, deficit soaring to new record highs.
7 Times In 2008 Obama Promised To Create 7 Million New Jobs. Reality: Record high sustained unemployment with 23 million Americans unemployed, underemployed, or simply have left the workforce.
Leftist “environmentalists” admit that they kept quite during the 2010 Gulf Oil Spill. “I guarantee you, if John McCain had been President, with that oil spill, or George Bush had been President with that oil spill, I’d have been out there with a sign protesting. I didn’t, because of who the President was.”

Obama’s performance in Poland: “ignorance and incompetence”
Obama has a lot more crazy celebrities in his corner than Romney does.
It’s appalling and undemocratic to raise more money than the Obama campaign. The comments on this one are great. Here are some of my favorites:
Way back in 2008, Dems and their friends in the media were all bragging about how much money Obama raised. I guess it’s different now because shut up.
Because Obama believes in strict regulation of campaign money, it’s moral for him to take millions in unregulated money. But because Romney DOESN’T believe in strict regulation of campaign money, it’s immoral for him to take millions in unregulated money. Because stuff. Also, racism.
Oh by all means, let’s keep the election funding fair and equal. Donating Romney the use of a custom 747 to fly around the country campaigning (all expenses paid) should just about do it. And if it still isn’t balanced out, we can disable the security features for his credit card donations until we bring him up to parity with Obama.
Unemployment rises to 8.2% Instead of new jobs increasing last month by the the Obama administration’s prediction of 150,000, the actual number was 69,000.

Senate Democrats still shirking their duty
Filed under: Congress, economy, Obama Economy, Our Dear Leader, Politics
Senate Democrats are poised to continue their impressive streak of budgetary negligence on Wednesday by unanimously rejecting as many as five different budgets, including the one offered by President Obama. Republicans, meanwhile, are hoping that voters will pick up on the disturbing trend.
The Democratic-led Senate has not formally proposed a federal budget resolution in more than three years, and is not expected to offer one Wednesday. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D., Nev.) and Budget Committee chairman Kent Conrad (D., N.D.) have made explicitly clear that they have no intention of doing so before the November election.
Not only have the congressional democrats not proposed any budgets in the past three years, they have voted against every budget proposal brought before Congress, including budgets proposed by the leader of their party, our own Dear Leader, Barack Obama.
Could it be that the congressional democrats don’t want their agenda documented in way that easily accessible by the American people?

This is according to the latest Gallup state poll numbers. Remember that we don’t have a single national election for President, we have 50 state elections held on the same day.
The media’s skewed focus
Blonde Housewife posts the following accurate assessment of the media’s level of focus on Gov. Romney and our Dear Leader.
So we know Mit Romney picked on a kid in 1965. Swell. We still have not seen President Obama’s grades, former girlfriends, medical records or anyone that was ever instructed by him while he was allegedly a law professor. And he never heard a word of what Jeremiah Wright’s radical church said for 20 years. Or hanging out with a member of the Weather Underground who attempted to bomb 1 Police Plaza in New York City.
But we know the President supports gay marriage. Marvelous, he now shares the same opinion on the matter that Dick Cheney has. How forward thinking.
So anyway, the President is going to a 40 thousand dollar a plate fund raiser tonight at George Clooney’s house. And I should point out the fact that President Obama has been to more fundraisers than the last five Presidents. Combined.
And I still have yet to see the unemployment numbers being changed mentioned in the mainstream media today. Joseph Goebbels would be proud of the amount of interference they are running for this President.

Fast and Furious: Barack Obama’s Bloodiest Scandal and the Shameless Cover-Up by Katie Pavlich
Here are the details about the blood drenched Obama policy of supplying Mexican drug lords with firearms, while at the same time working to deny Americans their Second Amendment Rights. Not only have numerous Mexicans lost their lives to the Obama policy of having the ATF supply firearms to Mexican Drug cartels, US Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry was killed by a Mexican drug cartel member using a weapon supplied by the Obama adminstration.
