Happy New Year to everyone! Don’t forget a lot can happen in a year.

Smack the Rich

Obama on Personal Responsibility

Now this might seem really bad at first, or maybe she just referenced the two to make a point for the children. However, to link Mother Theresa with Mao Tse Tung together is offensive, to use the phrase “favorite political philosophers” with Mao Tse Tung is offensive, but even more offensive when it is given in conjunction with Mother Theresa.  If she doesn’t following the teachings and doesn’t support Mao Tse Tung, then why does she use the phrase “the two people that I turn to most”?

The article states Anita Dunn is only serving in the role temporarily until a replacement is filled. This is little comfort to fill such an important position with someone as radical as Anita Dunn, even temporarily. Perhaps they should have used the White House Military Director strategy and kept the position vacant. As you might have recalled the White House Military Director Louis Caldera was fired from the White House for the Air Force One flyover and resigned on May 22, 2009. The position has been vacant since then with the nomination of George Mulligan coming only on October 16, 2009. Interesting how the White House likes to both fire and hire people on the slow media day of Friday.

Public Option Maze

You might be able to keep your healthcare for now, but how long will it be around for? Then you can have one and only one option, the Government Public Option. Remember folks, there are no free lunches and definitely no free healthcare. With all this spending, if you are lucky enough to live a long full life to 75 or 80, you will be unlucky by working up until you die to pay for all the government debt.

The group doesn’t seem very political though, at all really, seems interesting how the song tries to be bipartisan, but includes lines like “Protect the lower class, you know McCain won’t,” and “We gotta vote Barack!,” but does not include very supportive reports for Senator McCain. Listen to what the kids had to say to CNN after they sang their video in 2008. Listen to what Willie Thornton has to say at 3:30 being the only one in the group who supported John McCain. Note how surprised the host is that he supports John McCain.

Barack, Michelle and Oprah

This was supposed to be a post-racial, post-partisan president who would unite the United States of America with the rest of the world. He has failed to be post-racial (the beer summit with Skip Gates and Officer Crowley is a great example), failed to be post-partisan (blaming the Republicans for the health care debate when has Democratic majorities in Congress and can’t get enough Democrats to support the plan), and has failed to reunite the rest of the world with the United States (there are several, but one being the 2016 Olympics).

President Obama shouldn’t get all the blame for the Olympics fiasco, but the fact that he made such a large effort by bringing himself, Michelle Obama and even Oprah all the way across the Atlantic to lobby for the Olympics and they failed, should concern the American people when he starts to negotiate more important things like health care, and the pressure cookers of Iran and North Korea.

According to this AP article, the teacher who directed the song retired at the end of the year. Perhaps she is going to work for the Barack Obama Administration in another capacity…she would be a great candidate as a new Lyrical Indoctrination Czar.

FCC Diversity Czar: Mark Lloyd

Meet the FCC Diversity Czar Mark Lloyd. From making statements about the media, the Pope to the war in Iraq. At the least, this is a good summary video of how Barack Obama was elected to the office by the assistance of the mainstream media’s negligence to actually do their jobs.

According to Mark Lloyd…

“News isn’t even really what it was when I was working with CNN in the late 1990’s. News is unfortunately more and more about just commenting on the passing parade and reading news releases as they come out [laughter] it’s hardly trying to put the pieces together of what’s going on and why. It’s often specualtion about what might happen, about who might win a battle, but it’s really not so much how this came to be, what are the deeper meanings of what’s going on here.”

Lloyd has some good advice for those finding themselves disagreeing with Barack Obama and his administration.

“Too many Americans, too many Americans who have useful important contributions to make to the public debate, have the habit of thinking they don’t have a real contribution to make. And one of the things I hope this channel [CNSNews.com] will do is really aggressively go out and find ways to get those Americans who are silent, to participate, to be heard, to speak up.”

Take a look at Dave Leip’s Atlas and see where the country seems to be lacking diversity. This is a great resource and you can drill down by state and county levels. It looks like Dave Leip might have to come up with a darker shade of red (yes he uses red for democrats instead of blue) in order to properly reflect the lack of diversity in the major metropolitan areas of the United States. Barack Obama only received 92.46% of the popular vote in Washington D.C., 76.21% of the popular vote in Cook County (Chicago) Illinois, and 73.47% of the popular vote in San Mateo County (San Francisco) California.

Hat tip to HoosierPundit and Angry White Boy

Take a look at some of his videos.

The video below is from one of his recent town hall meetings on health care. He explains to his constituents how this is “my town hall meeting and I set the rules.” Then he rephrases and says it is “my town hall hall meeting for you.” To add insult to injury, he then says “and you’re not going to tell me how to run my congressional office.” Perhaps someone should remind Rep. Baron Hill that the congressional office belongs to the constituents that voted him in to office, voted him out of office and then voted him back in.

Believe it or not, Rep. Baron Hill has been serving in Congress since 1999. He also was voted out of office by his constituents in 2004, but regained his seat in 2006. He also has ambition to run for Governor of Indiana in 2012. He might want to hope he holds on to his district seat first, especially with the way he treats his constituents.

What YouTube videos could he be referencing? Perhaps this one…

Maybe it is this one…

It could also be this one… 

He probably doesn’t like this one either…

He probably doesn’t like these statements on revealing your hand to the enemy, job approvals,  sacrifices, the draft, pork, or his experience.

If you think these videos were taken out of context, feel free to watch all the videos. Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5, and Part 6.

But this one takes the cake…

A hat tip to HoosierPundit for some of these great videos.

‘Press Czar’ Robert Gibbs calls the opposition “ridiculous.”

The article states…

The appointed advisers gained increased scrutiny following resignation of former green jobs czar Van Jones after his signature was found on a petition implying the Bush administration played a role in the 9/11 terrorist attacks and making other controversial statements.

“The bulk of the noise you hear began first with partisan commentators, suggesting that this is somehow a new and sinister development that threatens our democracy. This is, of course, ridiculous,” White House Communications Director Anita Dunn wrote in a blog post.

“Just to be clear, the job title ‘czar’ doesn’t exist in the Obama Administration,” Dunn added, referring to the informal term used for the advisers.

Dunn noted that former Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush used “czars” in their administration.

The administration specifically targeted a letter from Reps. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) and Lamar Smith’s (R-Tex.) requesting White House counsel Greg Craig provide information regarding the “czars’” vetting information, pay grade, and responsibilities.

“But of course, it’s really the hypocrisy here that is noteworthy,” wrote Dunn, echoing the DNC’s line-of-attack against Issa. “Just earlier today, Darrell Issa…had to admit to Fox News that he had never raised any objections to the Bush Administration’s use of ‘czars.’”

It is not hypocritical of Rep. Issa not to bring up Czars during the administration of George W. Bush or that of Bill Clinton (although Rep. Issa wasn’t elected until 2000) because they did not utilize czars in the sheer number that Barack Obama has done in less than seven months in office.

Someone should point out to ‘Press Czar’ Robert Gibbs that what is ridiculous is the size of the shadow government that Barack Obama is assembling in his administration.

Van Jones, Source: collagefoundation.org

Born September 20, 1968 as Anthony Jones in Jackson, Tennessee

Education: University of Tennessee and Yale Law School

Occupation: Civil Rights, Human Rights and Environmental Activist

Nominated as Green Jobs Czar: March 10, 2009

Status: Resigned, September 6, 2009

Length of Service: 180 days

President Barack Obama’s Green Jobs Czar Van Jones tendered his resignation on Sunday, September 6, 2009 as Special Advisor for Green Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation at the White House Council on Environmental Quality. The text of Van Jones resignation letter:

“I am resigning my post at the Council on Environmental Quality, effective today.

On the eve of historic fights for health care and clean energy, opponents of reform have mounted a vicious smear campaign against me. They are using lies and distortions to distract and divide.

I have been inundated with calls – from across the political spectrum – urging me to “stay and fight.”

But I came here to fight for others, not for myself. I cannot in good conscience ask my colleagues to expend precious time and energy defending or explaining my past. We need all hands on deck, fighting for the future.

It has been a great honor to serve my country and my President in this capacity. I thank everyone who has offered support and encouragement. I am proud to have been able to make a contribution to the clean energy future. I will continue to do so, in the months and years ahead.”

Van Jones says “I cannot in good conscience ask my colleagues to expend previous time and energy defending or explaining my past.” Could he possibly be referring to some of these past statements?

-Signing a petition that said the government was behind 9/11.

-“Redistribution of all wealth…”

-Calling Republicans a*******

-Etc., etc., etc.

Why did they get rid of him? Perhaps he didn’t pass his FBI background check, perhaps Barack Obama and those in his administration felt Van Jones is even too far-left for them, perhaps his case of Obama fever (as seen in this video at 2:12) got worse, perhaps the swaying public opinion changed their mind, or perhaps they didn’t like him calling Barack Obama, “Barack Hussein Obama”.

Radio host Michael Savage’s thoughts on Van Jones.

Now that Van Jones has resigned, will he pack his bags and head out of D.C. on the peace train?
