Obama threatens Congress to confirm Sotomayor
President Barack Obama wants "equal justice under the law." His version of equal justice is Sonia Sotomayor. He said this today during his weekly address.

Chavez to give Obama book authored by Lenin at next meeting
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez is a fan of President Barack Obama. Well, it may appear that way. So, next time, if there is a next time, Chavez is going to give Obama a book titled "What is to be Done?" written by Vladimir Lenin. Lenin killed millions of Russians when the Communists took over the country.
The first book given to Obama from Chavez was "Open Veins of Latin America: Five Centuries of the Pillage of a Continent" by Eduardo Galeano. This book was a bashing of the United States. The next book is written by an evil Communist.
Is this brainwashing, or are they Obama must reads? Chavez knows Obama is very left leaning. Either he knows he'll read them, or he knows he already has. He knows Obama has socialist tendencies. It's obvious.

Obama knows best: Sotomayor wouldn't say statement today
President Barack Obama is sure that Sonia Sotomayor would restate her racist 2001 comments that a Latina woman is more fit for the Supreme Court than a white man. Of course he'd say that. He'll say anything to make his Supreme Court pick look good.
The sad thing is that Obama agrees with Sotomayor's comment. The current Court doesn't give justice. He wants his version of justice.
Also, Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said, "I think she'd say that her word choice in 2001 was poor."
I have an idea. How about let Sotomayor actually talk about what she really meant by that comment? Let's not put words in her mouth. If she is a racist, let her act on it. Don't let Gibbs and Obama try their best to do a cover-up. I know NBC News is doing its best to cover this up.

Obama demands Israel stop construction in West Bank, Israel rejects
President Obama is like a young lady in a beauty pagent. He wants "world peace." Well, he is actually after Middle Eastern peace between Israel and Palestine. The problem is that both sides have been fighting since the time of Mohammed, if not the time of Jesus. It's a little difficult to say "all is good" after thousands of years.
Obama wants all construction stopped by the Israelis in the West Bank. He wants the West Bank and the Gaza Strip to become the nation of Palestine. The thing is, if that comes to be, I bet the Palestinians will want more land, and eventually all of what is today Israel.
It is clear that Obama is siding with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas when it comes to Israeli-Palestinian relations. I don't think Obama would care if Palestine wiped out Israel. The odd thing is that Obama appears to think that he is in control of the situation. Shouldn't it really be between Israel and Palestine?

Reid professes his love for Obama
As Sen. Harry Reid is worried about his upcoming 2010 election, he is hoping that professing his love to President Barack Obama will give him a few added votes from the Obama disciples of Nevada.
At a Harry Reid fundraiser in Las Vegas, the senate majority leader boasted that will will receive more than $25 million to keep him in office. Also at the fundraiser, Obama disciples were able to get a picture with the "messiah." It only was a chip-change cost of $29,600. Obama flew in to help Reid raise an estimated $2 million. The price per ticket for the event was $2,400 a ticket.
A Politico article said Reid spoke highly of Obama at the event.
“This man is extremely smart – he can communicate,” Reid said. “But the best part of Barack Obama is his heart is bigger than any heart in the world.”

Pelosi feels at home in China, appeals for help on climate change
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., spoke at Beijing's elite Tsinghua University today and urged Beijing to cooperate with the United States on climate change. It's funny at how "global warming" is now called "climate change." Is it because the globe isn't warming? It is just changing and we all know (jokingly) that the Earth's temperature has never changed.
While at the university, a student asked Pelosi a question on how the Americans would cut back on their carbon emissions. Pelosi responded saying: "We have so much room for improvement. Every aspect of our lives must be subjected to an inventory...of how we are taking responsibility."

Obama: Now or never for socialized health care
President Barack Obama is scared, very scared. He wants socialized health care by year's end. I know why. He sees the writing on the wall. The Democrats are in trouble in the 2010 election. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., is in danger of losing the election. Obama wants to put this country so far in debt, so we will embrace socialism with open arms.
Now some are saying that a national sales tax could help in the process of getting socialized health care. How nice. Another failed Obama campaign promise. This country is in debt and they keep spending and spending. The Chinese aren't happy with our government spending, you know. When will the U.S. dollar stop being the world currency? We are spending out of existence and the government wants us to have "free" health care. That sounds about right.

Gibbs laughs at Obama birth certificate question
Today at the White House press briefing, a journalist asked a question about the validity of President Obama's birth certificate. Of course, Press Secretary Robert Gibbs laughed and then the room of many disciples broke out in laughter. I bet this journalist will not be allowed in the room ever again.
Gibbs says that Obama's birth certificate is available on the internet. Exactly where can we find it, Mr. Gibbs?
I assume he's an American, because how could the U.S. Government allow it if he wasn't an American, but why keep all the speculation Obama administration? Just make it easily available to make the speculation go away. Those are my words of wisdom.
Threat from Gibbs: Be careful on how you describe Sotomayor
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich poses a terrific argument. He said, "Imagine a judicial nominee said 'my experience as a white man makes me better than a latina woman.' Wouldn't they have to withdraw? New racism is no better than old racism.
"A white man racist nominee would be forced to withdraw. Latina woman racist should also withdraw."
But, according to Press Secretary Gibbs, this means nothing. So he instead threatens those who are not fans of Sonia Sotomayor. How nice, a good way of thinking. Good going CBS' Chip Reid for asking Gibbs the question.

Visteon files for Chapter 11, GM awaits its own fate
A former Ford Motor Company subsidiary has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection today. Visteon Corp. has been struggling with reduced demand from automakers as they have planned extended plant shutdowns this summer. Visteon is as important to Ford as Delphi Corp., is to General Motors.
Speaking about General Motors, or should I say Government Motors, it is planning to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the next coming days. It will join Chrysler, LLC. in that feat. In the proposed GM deal at this time, bondholders representing $27 billion in debt would be offered 10 percent of a reorganized GM, according to Reuters. The rest of the deal is: U.S. Treasury would own 72.5 percent and the United Auto Workers would own 17.5 percent of the new GM.
Socialism is here to stay. The government is beginning to own everything.
Meanwhile, Press Secretary Robert Gibbs says that GM shareholders must sacrifice if the automaker is going to survive:

Sotomayor is not fit for the Supreme Court
On Tuesday morning, President Barack Obama nominated Sonia Sotomayor as his choice to replace Justice David Souter on the United States Supreme Court. Sotomayor is currently serving as a circuit judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit. She is of Puerto Rican descent and was born in The Bronx. She was a graduate of Princeton University and Yale Law School and she claims to be Roman Catholic. Now, enough about this. Let's talk about what she's done as a judge.
First off, Sotomayor is against gun rights. She aparently is unaware of the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. According to the National Rifle Association, she ruled in Maloney v. Cuomo that the Second Amendment does not apply against state and local governments. (NRA Web site)
Secondly, she is not going to judge according to the law, but instead from her "life experiences." Sotomayor said this: “I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn’t lived that life." (Quote within NY Times article)
Third, she is a racist. In a case about reverse discrimination within the New Haven, Conn. Fire Department. City officials threw out a promotion exam because no African Americans and only two Hispanic firefighters were likely to be make lieutenants or captains based on the results. Sotomayor sided with the city. White firefighters who would have been promoted, were not because they were white. This case is currently in the U.S. Supreme Court. (Newsday story)
Fourth, Sotomayor "joked" that on the Court is where policy is made. The Court is there to stand by the Constitution and not to make policy and make law.
Fifth, Sotomayor's decisions have been reversed 60 percent of the time by the Supreme Court. (Story by The Washington Times)
Sixth, and also very important. She ruled against the First Amendment in August 2007 in Doninger v. Niehoff. In the case, Avery Doninger was disqualified from running for school government at Lewis S. Mills High School in Burlington, Conn., after she posted something on her blog referring to the superintendent and other school officials as "douche bags" because they canceled a battle of the bands she had helped to organize. (Story from NBC Connecticut)
More is to come, I am sure of it. She is who Obama is. His mirror image. Obama says that there will finally be justice on the Court when she arrives.

RNC compares Pelosi to Pussy Galore?
What is the Republican National Committee thinking? Comparing the 69-year old Nancy Pelosi to Goldfinger's Pussy Galore? What is with the sophomoric humor? The commercial only needed to show Pelosi caught in her own web of lies. I understand the connection of the CIA to James Bond because there is no single song from an American spy film that would be as noticeable.
Pelosi may be "evil" in the eyes of many, but she is not a "Pussy Galore."
I just hope the RNC got permission to use the song and images from EON Productions.

Mixed reaction for Obama at Notre Dame
Yesterday, President Barack Obama was the main speaker at the University of Notre Dame commencement. He urged the graduating class to "find common ground" when it comes to abortion. I am not sure what that is, exactly. You are either for it or you are against it. Inside the Joyce Center, where the commencement occurred, there were few protests, but outside there was many. Most were arrested for trespassing.
The vast majority of the students inside supported Obama speaking. Many would think that the Catholic university didn't care about Obama's stance on abortion. But, the main thing is, these students may not understand the Church's stance and may not even attend a Roman Catholic church. For those believers, they would be admittedly against Obama speaking because he does not even come close to the Church's doctrine. Now, I know Obama is not a Catholic. But, what is he anyway?
Father Jenkins, the University of Notre Dame president, said Obama's speech does not mean that the university agrees with Obama, but how can a university honor a man who does not give babies the right to live.

Government Efficiency? Dead people get stimulus checks
How's this for government efficiency, stimulus checks for dead people. And these dead people didn't just die, some died 30 to 40 years ago. The Obama administration wanted these checks out as soon as possible and apparently the Treasury didn't check the death certificates. The Fox affiliate in New York ran a story on this and said that as many as 10,000 dead people may have received checks. It's a wonder if the people who received them will tell the truth and return the money to the efficient government.
This is what the government does with our money. They waste it. This is nothing new.

CIA, Pelosi at odds over "truth"
CIA director Leon Panetta has told his fellow CIA employees that the intelligence agency told the truth about the enhanced interrogation techniques to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Politico published the following from Panetta...
He said: We didn't mislead Congress; stay focused on your job.
Panetta's note was sent to reporters via the CIA press office. Here's the key graph:
"Let me be clear: It is not our policy or practice to mislead Congress. That is against our laws and our values. As the Agency indicated previously in response to Congressional inquiries, our contemporaneous records from September 2002 indicate that CIA officers briefed truthfully on the interrogation of Abu Zubaydah, describing “the enhanced techniques that had been employed.” Ultimately, it is up to Congress to evaluate all the evidence and reach its own conclusions about what happened."
Today, Pelosi made more conflicting statements about waterboarding. She continues to lie about what she "knew."
Also, Press Secretary Robert Gibbs (the best ever) dodged a question about the White House's stance on Pelosi's opinion. Fox News' Major Garret asked the question, one of the few curious journalists in the press corp.

Obama blames credit cards, card holders for pain
President Barack Obama spoke today about the abusive practices of credit card companies at a town hall meeting in Rio Rancho, New Mexico. He also blamed the card holders for having too large of eyes for their budgets, but it was mostly an attack on the evil credit card companies.
Obama urged Congress to send him a bill by Memorial Day for him to sign it to end the fine print, rapid changes in interest rates, unfair late fees and other things they'll add to make credit cards available to everyone, just like homes.
The Democrats just want to ruin the total economy to create a nanny state.

New Hampshire Gov. John Lynch (Dem.) said he would sign a bill allowing gay marriage if the legislature would pass a bill. Lynch, who claims to be Roman Catholic, does not follow the Church's teachings, as well as the stance of the Apostle Paul in his Epistles in the Holy Bible. Essentially, in my opinion, Lynch is not a Christian.

The Rev. John Jenkins, the president of the University of Notre Dame, said President Obama's commencement appearance is not at odds with Roman Catholic teaching. However, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops does not totally agree with Jenkins because of Obama's stance on abortion, among other things.
Jenkins said about the invite, "I am saddened that many friends of Notre Dame have suggested that our invitation to President Obama indicates ambiguity in our position on matters of Catholic teaching. The university and I are unequivocally committed to the sanctity of human life."

Dems unite in attacking CIA
The Democrats don't care about law or common sense. They are out for their own best interests and attacking the Bush administration, as well as the Central Intelligence Agency. Now they are saying that the CIA may have broken the law.
Let's talk about breaking laws. The Dems do that every day. What exactly is the US Constitution for? Shredding? Oh, yeah, it's the law of the land. Look at it once in a while.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi got flustered today when she spoke about what she "knew" about the CIA and waterboarding.

Chrysler, GM announce cut of dealerships
So first Chrysler was told to not have as many television commercials. Now, Chrysler and General Motors (ah hem, Government Motors) are cutting dealerships. Chrysler alone is cutting 25 percent of its U.S. dealers. For a company in bankruptcy, it is going to be even tougher to get out of this bankruptcy and even to make a profit when out of bankruptcy. The first question is, where can you buy a Chrysler car?
The government is just making it tougher.

Pelosi fires back at CIA
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is now accusing the Central Intelligence Agency of misleading Congress about enhanced interrogation techniques.
She is practically today's version of a "Benedict Arnold." She is out for her own interests. She hates the United States Military and she despises the CIA. She would be happy if they both were eliminated.

Geithner: Bailout repayments from large banks to help smaller banks
Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner said on Wednesday that the bailouts to only the larger banks is not fair to smaller community banks. So what better way to make it fair? How about have the government take control over the smaller banks too! Geithner said the Obama administration will use bailout money repaid by large banks to provide additional capital infusions to smaller banks.
But, I thought the smaller banks knew how to run their businesses. I hope these banks don't fall for this. The U.S. government wants total control over the banking system. They want capitalism to die.

Pelosi wants socialized health care bill on House floor by July, Obama hails news
The liberals in Washington are scared of what is going to happen in the next election cycle. You know, the loss of their jobs. So, it's time to ruin the country while they still can, and do it early so people may forget by 2010.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Wednesday that the House would have the health care bill on the floor by the end of July and President Barack Obama loved this news.
Now, my issue with this news is that how can you get a good bill on the floor in so little time. It is going to be totally messed up. It takes months to write up a good bill. And, this bill is not some minor bill. This will change health care forever. But, the Democrats in Washington don't care.

Obama: Chrysler can't advertise as much
The Obama administration cut Chrysler LLC's advertising in half and just when it needs it during a bankruptcy. The advertising now will let the public know that the company is still operating, but the Obama Auto Task Force doesn't care. Chrysler wanted to spend $134 million in advertising over the nine weeks it's expected to be in bankruptcy, but the government only allowed half of that.
Well, this is what happens when the government is in control of your future. For every company that took money from the government, it's too bad.

Soda pop tax to pay for socialized heath care?
Stupidity is in the air. I can understand a tax on tobacco. It actually kills, or at least shortens a person's life span. Now sugary drinks? I'm not a health expert, but I haven't heard about anything life threatening from pop, energy drinks, or fruit drinks.
I guess they'll try anything to get socialized health care. The U.S. Government is broke and it has come to this. What's next, increased tax at fast food joints?

Protests on Notre Dame campus about upcoming Obama visit
As President Barack Obama's commencement speech nears at Notre Dame, the protests and outrage is getting more in the open. In my opinion, Obama defies practically everything that a Christian believes in. Today, Alan Keyes and 20 others were arrested for protesting the upcoming visit. More is to come. It is a week away.
Notre Dame brought this all on themselves. They claim to be Catholic. It is only a claim.

Archbishop slams Notre Dame over Obama visit
"The proposed granting of an honorary doctorate at Notre Dame University to our president, who is so aggressively advancing an anti-life and anti-family agenda, is rightly the source of the greatest scandal."
--Archbishop Raymond Burke, who is the prefect of the Apostolic Signatura, the Vatican's highest court
Burke also said, if Catholics are not willing to stand up for the church's teachings, "we are not worthy of the name Catholic."

MSNBC's Matthews attacks Pence on evolution, global warming
Chris Matthews, a socialist Democrat who follows the General Electric company line, forgets about what it means to be objective. He forgets about his own values. He claims he is a Roman Catholic, yet he does not practice what he is preached in the church and the Holy Bible.
All Matthews does is try his best to make the Republican Party look bad. Just a year ago, Matthews criticized Obama because he was a Hillary Clinton supporter, but now he gets tingly feelings when he just hears Obama's name. This is company line.
And, he talks about global warming 'believers' as if it's like a religion. Then comes evolution. Matthews believes in it, because he follows the GE line. 'Evolutionary belief' he calls it. More religion that is not Christianity for Matthews.
Matthews is an angry man. He needs help.
Attack, attack, attack. Matthews hates Republicans. MSNBC hates Republicans. General Electric wants to make money, so they love global warming. It's all about profit. MSNBC is GE propaganda.
Here's the video of Mike Pence (R-IN) on Hardball with Chris Matthews:
