Introduction

The purpose of this blog is to synthesize information about current events and provide insights not readily available from the  news media.

Unpopular Obama

President Obama’s approval rating dropped below 50% on Real Clear Politics meta-survey. If President Obama was a Republican, the press would be full editorial comment on how this is an indication that the President needs to adjust his policies to be more in step with the American public. However, President Obama is the Media’s candidate, so the historic drop in approval ratings is mentioned rarely if at all.

What I Like About Sarah Palin

Every so often someone asks me if or what I like about Sarah Palin. I usually answer that I don’t know very much about her, which is true, ignoring that I do like her.  At least it’s true in the sense of what she thinks about various issues or what her views are, other than in the broadest sense. I can finally explain exactly what I find appealing.

Sarah Palin’s mere existence exposes the hypocrisy of the Left and it’s self proclaim Liberals and Progressives. I love that about her. From the earliest days of being rumored to be selected as McCain’s VP, her biography stood as counterpoint to President Obama’s. The substance’s of Palin’s biography mocking Obama’s evanescence .

That is what I like about Sarah Palin

Idiocracy

President Obama’s Three Point Plan for _______(fill in the blank)

1. He’s got these people.

2. The people are experts.

 3. They’re going to fix everything.

President Obama gives you his word.

The plan applies to every issue. Most recently it is an outline of his newest economic initiative – his “jobs summit”.

Is anyone shocked that after 10 months or so, the President admits that he and his Adminstration have no idea how to create jobs so they’re going to bring some “experts”?

Rachel Maddow IS a Genius!

Tonight on Maddow I learned that the people you see in advertisements MAY NOT ACTUALLY use the product they appear with! Apparently, some remnants of the Imperial Bush Presidency (or something) have created an advocacy group that uses stock images of people on its pages, instead registered supporters! Clearly, the Obama Community Advocacy Czar did not approve this website. 

I was shocked to learn this! Thank goodness for Ms. Maddow and her PhD. She is a credit to news journalists everywhere.

Does Dan Rather Fact Check Hardball?

The other night, Chris Matthews had a feeling about President Obama’s birth certificate. He did not indicate which body part was affected this time, but the feeling apparently resolved itself into a sense of certainty with regard to Mr. Obama’s birthplace. Not surprisingly, President Obama’s explanation was air tight for Mr. Matthews. More objective analysis would suggest that even though the proffered evidence is not air tight, Mr. Matthews may not be getting enough oxygen.

It would hardly be unusual for a baby to born outside of a hospital in Hawaii in 1961. Given that Hawaii is an island chain, births outside of hospitals are probably not unusual even today and issuing birth certificates for those children is most likely a routine matter. It is not hard to imagine how one could obtain a Hawaiian birth certificate for a baby born outside the state.

 The recently issued Certificate of Live Birth and the published birth announcements, while offering irrefutable proof to Mr. Matthews, are not conclusive evidence of where Mr. Obama was born.

Why Can’t President Obama Apologize?

President Obama, let me be clear, incorrectly claimed that Henry Louis Gates, Jr. was arrested on suspicion of burglary. Unfortunately, President Obama lacks the integrity to apologize for his own misdeeds, preferring to limit his apologies to the service of slandering others.

Obama, Gates: Clueless

Professor Gates thought he won lottery -  a police officer, a WHITE police officer, sought to discern if Harvard University Professor Gates was a burglary suspect in Gates own home!

President Obama, always confident and sure, convicted the police officer of misdeeds despite the facts.

Blinded by self regard, both men have embarrassed themselves over this incident.

President Obama Speaks the Truth

Freudian slip? Teleprompter malfunction? Who knows, but President Obama manages to get the truth out on Health Care Reform in this link.

That 70’s Show

In case there wasn’t enough overwhelming evidence of the Obama Administration’s complete lack of new ideas, the AP, through Breibart, reports that President Obama is seeking price controls for medical costs.

Ooh! Ooh! Mr. Kotter! I know how this one turns out!

Are the Studios at NPR Too Close to the Transmitters?

On Fox News Sunday today, Mara Liasson of NPR put forth the  idea that all income that is not taxed, is subsidized. The context was a discussion of health insurance benefits provided by employers.

I’d recommend reading the transcripts for some gems of eqaul quality from Juan Williams. I’d list some here, but Mr. Williams was overwhelming with his performance today.

Are the recording studios at NPR too close to the powerful electromagnetic fields of the transmitters? Just wondering.
