The national conservative news has begun a much needed blitzkrieg aimed at destroying the mainstream media defensive curtain surrounding President Barack Obama and his administration, intensifying it during his latest official/campaign/fund-raising our of must win swing states.
Due to the fact that Barack Obama cannot run on his dismal [factual] record as president during this election cycle, much like someone suffering from dual personality disorder, he is giving speeches that are completely full of malarkey and mutilated facts, and spoken mostly in the third person–as though he had nothing to do with anything that has happened since his inauguration.
As the mainstream media acts more like they are producing campaign commercials for President Obama, careful not to destroy the man or the myth, the conservative media is responding with a full court press to smash the Obama fiction with cold, hard facts–and there is a train load of them to choose from.
On this latest trip, beginning in the must win state of Nevada, President Obama is shamelessly trying another escape route from his first, highly touted, green energy venture, Solyndra Solar, which disintegrated in August 2011, just 15 months after he touted it as the example of the future of America.
The sinking of Solyndra Solar took down 528 million taxpayer dollars, and 1,100 brand new, short time, green jobs with it.
While making his push for solar at Copper Mountain, the largest solar farm in the U.S., Obama addressed a reporter from National Public Radio, stating that the blame for Solyndra Solar’s failure was bipartisan–not the fault of the Obama Democrats “per se,” according to Chris Stirewalt’s FOXNews article yesterday.
“Congress, Democrats and Republicans, put together a loan guarantee program, because they understood historically that when you get new industries, it’s easy to get money for new startups,” Obama said. “But if you want to take them to scale, often there is a lot of risk involved and what the loan guarantee program was designed to do was to help start-up companies get to scale.”
He was referring to the Federal Financing Bank, established back in 1973, in the midst of the Arab Oil Embargo–40 years ago it did have bipartisan support. However, since then, Republicans are not keen on crony capitalism or having the federal government in the position to “bet on” winners and losers.
That is where the “facts”, supporting his statement, end.
Unfortunately for President Obama, the Bush administration Department of Energy rejected the Solyndra Solar for this loan program, at the end of its term in 2008, asserting that it was too risky.
Shortly after Steven Chu, Obama’s newly appointed, Nobel Prize winning, energy secretary (who doesn’t even own a car), took his seat at DOE, the Solyndra Solar file was immediately “re-activated,” more than likely at the insistence of Solyndra venture capital investor George Kaiser–a wealthy Obama campaign cash bundler–just before the company reached the end of its “cash runway.”
Amazingly, the “due diligence” findings of team Chu were exactly the opposite of team Bush–they thought it was a great idea–approved it, and set the loan for closing in September 2009, presenting President Obama with an historic photo op/media (YouTube link) event to usher in his vision for “winning the future.”
Now, we completely unravel his tale of fiction.
First, there was absolutely no bipartisan input in the DOE energy loan program criteria or the list of candidate companies, including Solyndra Solar.
Second, this loan was funded from the $787 billion 2009 Obama Stimulus bill.
As has been widely reported, the bill did not receive a single Republican vote in the House, and garnered just three dubious Republican votes in the Senate, Sen. Olympia Snowe (RINO-ME), who is retiring and Sen. Susan Collins (RINO-ME).
The third vote came from Sen. Arlen Specter (RINO-PA), who switched parties once polls showed that he could not win reelection as a Republican. However, Specter ultimately lost the Democrat primary race to Joe Sestak–who was defeated by Republican Pat Toomey.
It appears as though Barack Obama is trapped by the gravitational pull of Solyndra Solar.

Friday March 23rd, 2012 is 2nd-year anniversary of the signing of the Affordable Care Act, ObamaCare, into law, Monday March 26th is the day the states take their case against the ObamaCare individual mandate (as well as the full law itself) to the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS). It could end up being the day that saved America, or the day the Supreme Court helped America sink further into debt and further down the road toward Socialism.
If SCOTUS strikes down the individual mandate, ObamaCare will implode and die, giving America another chance at both surviving and re-addressing healthcare and Medicare. If SCOTUS does not strike down the mandate, we will get a second chance to overturn the bill that will be the final nail in the coffin of American freedom in November 2012. After that the only thing that will save us from ourselves is a total financial collapse.
Government-controlled/run healthcare is the jewel socialism and the most Progressive president and congress America has ever had crammed this bill down the throats of the American people without most of them ever realizing what happened. They even managed to force both the House and Senate to vote on this program, several times each, without reading the bills. Think about it.
There was a small group of people, the Tea Party and other patriots, who were engaged and did read those bills (at least one version), reviewed and shared their findings, spoke out and traveled to Washington D.C. to stand up. I was one of those people… but nobody in Washington and not enough people in America listened.
Nancy Pelosi said, We have to pass the bill (without reading it… because there was not time) to find out what was in it?”. They did… and now we, the American people, are beginning to find out what is in it… in dribs and drabs… one bad provision at a time. ObamaCare is fraught with broken promises and misrepresentations: Obamacare’s Top 5 Broken Promises
Well, we now have a group of doctors who have come together to get out the truth, the whole truth on how Obamacare will impact the health and welfare of your loved ones at: www.AmericanDoctors4Truth.org. It is information absolutely vital for every American, especially if the SCOTUS does not over the full law or at least the individual mandate.
Remember the Democrat ad showing Paul Ryan throwing grandma off a cliff?
Well here is the response to that ad by www.AmericanDoctors4Truth.org based on the information of what really is in ObamaCare, now coming out. Please watch:
My question is why nobody in Washington has read the full ObamaCare Bill in the meantime after it was passed and then spoken out… yelling from the rooftops? Why?
Recently several important provisions have come to light. Below are back-up articles and information for those who did not read the bill or at least the reviews of those who did:
IPAB Spells Gloom And Doom For Medicare – Just yesterday (03.22.12) the House of Representatives voted to repeal key ‘Obamacare’ provision” IPAB (the CLASS ACT has also been nullified)
Was told by a friend whose husband who works for one of our major hospitals here that the HR department posts upcoming news on a weekly basis on their bulletin boards throughout the hospital.
Late last week a posting went up stating: PER THE US FED GOVT, AS OF APRIL 24, 2013 THERE WILL BE NO CHEMO/RADIATION/MEDICATIONS/FOR ALL PERSONS DIAGNOSED WITH CANCER AT AGE 76. SURGICAL PROCEDURES WILL BE DONE ONLY IF THE SURGEONS CAN GET IT ALL.

Obamacare includes such a variety and volume of negative policies that it’s hard to keep track of them all. Here is a list of 10 terrible provisions that every American should be aware of:
It increases taxes on families earning over $250,000. In 2013, the employee portion of the Medicare payroll tax will increase from 1.45 percent to 2.35 percent for families earning $250,000 or more and individuals earning $200,000 or more. The income threshold is not indexed for inflation, so more and more middle-income families will be hit by the tax hike as time goes on.
It adds a new tax to investment income. The increased payroll tax rate is also applied to high-earners’ investment income for the first time beginning in 2013. It will hit capital gains, dividends, rents, and royalties, discouraging investment and harming economic growth.
It puts new limitations on those with HSAs and FSAs. Starting in 2012, Obamacare restricts the products that consumers may purchase with a Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Savings Account (FSA)—such as over-the-counter medications—and increases the penalty for such non-qualified uses of HSAs. It also limits the amount taxpayers may deposit into an FSA to $2,500 a year in 2013.
It adds a new tax on those who purchase medical devices. In 2013, a 2.3 percent excise tax will be applied to medical devices, causing a $28.5 billion tax hike on medical device manufacturers. The industry will pay for this tax by reducing jobs and passing additional costs on to consumers.
It penalizes marriage. Obamacare creates new taxpayer-funded subsidies for the low and middle classes to purchase health coverage, but the structure of the subsidies allows two individuals to claim more in subsidies alone than if married. This discriminates against married couples and discourages marriage at almost all age and income levels.
It violates religious liberty. The Department of Health and Human Services included the full range of contraceptives, including abortion-inducing drugs, among the women-specific preventive services that Obamacare requires insurers to include with no cost-sharing. This mandate violates Americans’ conscience rights and religious liberty. Its narrow exemption for religious employers will force many who find these products morally objectionable—including religious charities, hospitals, and schools—to pay for them.
It puts Medicare decisions in the hands of an unelected board. The Independent Payment Advisory Board, a board of 15 unelected officials, will have the power to cut Medicare spending without congressional approval. These unaccountable government appointees will be able to restrict seniors’ access to providers, treatments, and services.
It puts a premium tax on health insurers. Obamacare adds a premium tax on health insurers that offer full coverage beginning in 2014. On average, the tax is expected to increase premiums by 1.9 percent to 2.3 percent in 2014 and between 2.8 percent and 3.7 percent by 2023. Combined with the other provisions in Obamacare, this tax will have a huge impact on the cost of premiums.
It creates a new unsustainable entitlement program. On top of Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid, Obamacare created a new long-term care entitlement called the CLASS program. It is actuarially unsound, unworkable, and unsustainable. As a result, the Administration has already put its implementation “on hold.”
It puts over half of all Americans on a government program. Because of Obamacare’s huge expansion of Medicaid and creation of taxpayer-funded subsidies to purchase health coverage, more than half of all Americans will be dependent on a government health care program (Medicare, Medicaid, or the government exchanges) by the end of this decade.
Again, we only have a few chances of getting rid of ObamaCare, 4 if you consider a total financial collapse:
Having the Supreme Court overturn it after the court hearing on March 23rd.
Voting in anyone (anyone but Obama… ABO) in November and then having them overturn and repeal as much of the entire bill as possible, on day one of their presidency, and start over, which all the GOP candidates have vowed to do.
Experiencing a total financial collapse of the United States after which there will be no money for any programs, especially ObamaCare.
If none of the first three above is done, the government will gain control of an additional 6 to 10% of the U.S. economy through ObamaCare and the tentacles will go so deep and wide that it can never be unwound after 4-more years of Obama and his radical team. Government controlled healthcare is always the crown jewel and center of socialism, especially with what is written into the Affordable Care Act or ObamaCare. And if you realize what is in this bill and what has been done, it is also obvious that Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and President must be ousted or shamed into quitting!!
Realizing how unpopular ObamaCare is the President and the White House have been very quiet about the 2-year anniversary, but Nancy Pelosi held a celebration in Washington on Thursday.
The SCOTUS decision is going to be a nail-bitter. Many feel that the individual mandate will be struck down in a 5 to 4 decision; the 4-conservatives on the bench plus Judge Kennedy against the 4-liberals on the bench, which include Sotomayor and Kagen appointed by Obama just for this fight. We shall see. And unwinding this monster will be a mess no matter what SCOTUS decides or which method with use.
The Cristero War (also known as the Cristiada) of 1926 to 1929 was an uprising and counter-revolution against the Marxist Mexican government in power at that time. The rebellion was set off by the persecution of Roman Catholics and specifically the strict enforcement of the anti-clerical provisions of the Mexican Constitution of 1917 and the further expansion of anti-clerical laws. After a period of peaceful resistance, a number of skirmishes took place in 1926. The formal rebellions began on 2 January 1927, with the rebels called Cristeros because they felt they were fighting for “Cristo Rey” (“Christ the King”). The rebellion ended by diplomatic means brokered by the then United States Ambassador to Mexico, Dwight Whitney Morrow.
