Liberals Concerned by Barack Obama's Reversals

Barack Obama has not even taken office, and Liberals are already getting concerned they may be getting betrayed by the President-Elect. Among their concerns are that Obama has not included solid Liberals in his cabinet and that he is reversing his positions on numerous campaign promises. They may have cause for concern. Obama has already made major alterations to most of his biggest pre-election policy stances. Tax cuts, windfall profits taxes, the Iraq pullout, etc. are all up for debate now that the election is over.

Liberals Voice Concerns About Obama

Every Black Jimmy Carter Has a Silver Lining

Barack Obama will probably turn out to be the Black Jimmy Carter. Jimmy Carter was elected after a very controversial administration as a liberal, family values, intellectual Democrat. Does this sound familiar? Of course, people soon realized how poorly suited Carter was for the job, but America was stuck with him for four years.

This four-year period was a time of tremendous inflation, rampant liberalism, foreign policy humiliations, and domestic despair. This period of suffering and malaise forced conservative Democrats to look outside of their party for relief. In 1980, Reagan soundly defeated Carter, ushered in one of the greatest times in American history, and created the gold standard of conservatism.

Since Obama is so much like Carter, one must wonder if Obama's administration will also be a tremendous failure. If it is, maybe Obama will pave the way for another great conservative. Right now, the only potential shinning candidate on a hill is Sarah Palin. If she doesn't rise to the occasion, maybe Jeb Bush can grow a beard, change his name to Jeb Shrubbery, and try to make it through the election before people figure out he has some famous relatives. Beyond that, it will have to be Joe the Plumber, Ted Nugent, or some sort of reanimated Thomas Jefferson zombie. (Great conservatives are hard to come by these days.)

The point is we had to suffer through four years of Carter to get eight years of Reagan and the collapse of the Soviet Union. Maybe Obama will wake up America (a nation which has been asleep since the fall of Baghdad), and we will get to see another great eight years and the fall of the Chinese Communist government and the Soviet Union II, which will probably be established by Vladimir Putin just after Obama takes the oath of office in January.

"Mr. Putin, tear down that wall again."

Fashion by Marx

(AFP/Emmanuel Dunand)

Marcus Marx was one of the early owners of Hart Schaffner & Marx (Hartmarx). This is the company who designed Obama’s Election Day victory speech suit. Do not miss the irony that our new Socialist President was dressed by a Marx the day he was elected.

America’s Second Black President

Congratulations to America for electing its second Black President. This honor was first earned by President Bill Clinton, who was elected in 1992. The honorable title was later awarded to President Clinton by, prominent Black author, Toni Morrison in the October 1998 issue of The New Yorker. For the last ten years, the phrase has been repeated over and over and has become one of Bill Clinton’s greatest accomplishments and legacies. Not to be outdone, Barack Obama has now followed in the footsteps of the great Black pioneer from Arkansas. Congratulations, Barack Obama, for becoming America’s second Black President. This is another great moment in history.

Black Panthers Intimidating Voters in Philadelphia

Reportedly, two Black Panthers were standing at the entrance of a polling place in Philadelphia and intimidating voters this morning. According to eyewitnesses, one of the Black Panthers was brandishing a nightstick.

By the time Fox News arrived on the scene, police had already come and gone. The Blank Panther with the nightstick had been escorted away by police; however, the other Black Panther was still present near the curb in front of the polling place.

Barack Obama Wants to Bankrupt New Coal Power Plants

According to the West Virginia Record, Barack Obama wants to create an environment that would make the establishment of new coal power plants nearly impossible. Obama wants to set up a system that would send a new coal power plant straight into bankruptcy. Essentially, he wants to make new coal plant construction and operation infeasible.

Barack Obama Lowers the Rich Threshold

Several days ago, Barack Obama was claiming that any household with less than $250,000 in combined income would receive a tax cut under his tax plan. During the last few days, Barack Obama has changed this figure. Now, your combined household income has to be under $200,000 to receive a tax cut. There is also a story floating around that Joe Biden recently said the actual threshold will be $150,000.

Why do we keep hearing all of these different numbers? What is the truth? What does Obama consider to be rich? When the dust settles, and Barack Obama is comfortably in office, we are probably going to find that any married couple making $100,000 is considered rich. Do not be surprised if that number is even lower. Socialism is not cheap.

Barack Obama Associates Reluctance to Pay Higher Taxes with Selfishness

According to Jake Tapper at ABCNews, Barack Obama is comparing reluctance to paying higher taxes with selfishness. Is it really selfish to want to keep the money you earned and give it away as you see fit instead of having the government seize your money and spread it around?

Peggy Joseph Expects No Gas and Mortgage Worries with President Barack Obama

Peggy Joseph expects she will no longer have to worry about filling her tank with gas or paying her mortgage if Barack Obama becomes President. Has Peggy Joseph misunderstood Barack Obama’s plans? Is she a typical Barack Obama voter? By the way, exactly who is supposed to pay for Peggy Joseph’s gas and house?

Why Hillary Clinton Cannot Afford to Let Barack Obama Become President

Senator Hillary Clinton has been sort of campaigning for Senator Barack Obama, but most people can tell her heart is not really in it. In fact, Hillary’s pro-Obama speeches have been little more than previews of her hopeful presidential run in 2012.

The reality is that Hillary Clinton’s presidential dreams have two enemies: Barack Obama and time. Barack Obama has already cost her the 2008 election--an election she was sure she would win. But 2008 is not all Obama has potentially taken from her. Obama may be days away from turning time into Hillary’s adversary.

The worst thing that could possibly happen to Hillary is for Obama to win this election. If Obama loses, Hillary will run in 2012 on the "I Told You So" platform and have a decent chance at winning. If, however, Obama does win, Hillary will have a very hard time challenging an incumbent Democrat President Obama in 2012. She will probably not get to run again until 2016 when Obama is no longer eligible to run. She will then face another major obstacle in 2016. She will probably have to challenge the then incumbent Vice President Biden for the position. For decades, Biden has clearly dreamed of being President, and he will not go quietly. If Vice President Biden can hold her off, Hillary is out of the running until 2020 or later.

Hillary is turning 61 on October 26, 2008. If she has to wait until 2020 to run, she will be 73 years old before Election Day. Hillary probably does not like the idea of possibly having to wait until she is older than John McCain is now to finally run for President. If Hillary did win in 2020, she would be the oldest person to ever become President.

Do not kid yourself. Hillary Clinton has already done the math on this, and you can bet she is unhappy about this cold reality. Do not be surprised if the Clintons are working behind the scenes to keep Obama out of the Oval Office. Hillary simply cannot afford to let Obama win this election. Obama does not need to worry about the Republicans. Hillary and Bill are the ones Obama needs to be watching.

Obama Tells Joe the Plumber He Wants to Spread the Wealth Around (Like a Socialist)

Joe the Plumber (Joe Wurzelbacher), now made famous by numerous mentions in the October 16, 2008 Presidential debate, was recently treated to straight talk from Barack Obama. Obama is a socialist, and he frankly admitted it to Joe the Plumber when he clearly stated he wants to "spread the wealth around."

Joe Wurzelbacher was asking an honest question about Obama’s tax policies, and was slapped with Marxist doctrine. Right in front of cameras and actual Americans in Ohio, Obama openly admitted the cornerstone of his liberal ideals: Tax those who have more and give it to those who have less.

In Obama’s world, it does not matter how hard people work and how much they earn. What matters is that everyone gets to enjoy the fruits of successful people. This is not American. This is Socialism. What ever happened to taking risks, working hard, and enjoying the rewards? Is that not one of the most basic pillars or American culture? How can we allow a man to be President of the United States of America when he supports such blatantly anti-capitalist views? If Obama’s tax plan sounds familiar to you, here is where you may have heard his philosophy before:

"From each according to his ability, to each according to his need."

Obama's "Hey, Where the White Women At?" Moment

One thing that infuriates black women is when successful black men choose white women. In Senator Obama’s defense, he did marry a black woman, but to kiss an attractive, fair-skinned, blonde woman in front of cameras right before a close election shows Obama just simply lacks the judgement to be President of the United States. Certainly, anyone would know Black women might not like the image of a Black man, who is on the verge of becoming the most successful Black man in history, kissing Miss White Bread America. If Obama is this stupid about kissing women, what other poor decisions will he make?

The Inconvenient Truth of Al Gore and the Big Secret Boat

The Great Blue Abyss has independently confirmed that Al Gore has recently purchased a large boat. The vessel is allegedly a big houseboat. The purchase itself is not significant. Al Gore is a rich man, and he should be allowed to enjoy his wealth. However, what is significant about this acquisition is that Gore seems to be going out of his way to keep his purchase out of the press.

What is the big secret here? Why does Al Gore not want people to know about his big, new boat? Is this boat a gas-guzzler that will hurt Gore’s ultra-green image? Is Gore trying to hide his posh lifestyle? Is there an embarrassing hypocrisy issue here? Perhaps, Gore is very confident about all of his global-warming predictions and wants a place to live when the rest of us are under twenty feet of water from the melting icecaps.

Mr. Gore, what’s the big secret about your new boat? Please tell us.

Joe Biden Tells Handicapped Chuck Graham to Stand Up

At a political event in Columbia, Missouri today, Senator Joe Biden, told Missouri State Senator Chuck Graham to stand up for the crowd. This would have been fine except for the inconvenient fact that Graham is confined to a wheelchair. In Biden’s defense, he probably thought Barack Obama had already healed Graham.

Barack Obama’s Lipstick on a Pig Comment Displays Poor Judgement

Senator Barack Obama used an old expression to attack the McCain-Palin campaign platform. His chosen expression was "You know, you can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig." This expression could have been simple insult to McCain’s policies, but it could have also been a crude but clever way to take a swipe at Governor Sarah Palin.

One of Palin’s most notable lines from her GOP convention speech was about lipstick being the only difference between a hockey mom and a pitbull. If Obama was trying to mock Palin by using the "lipstick on a pig" analogy, it was sly but so obvious that most politically aware people will pick up on the insult instantly.

Regardless of Obama’s intent, using this line was foolish. Women do not like being compared to pigs. They are especially displeased when men compare women to pigs. If Obama used the "lipstick on a pig" line to insult Palin, he is an obnoxious jerk. If he used the line without realizing people might think he was referring to Palin, he is a shallow moron. Either way, Obama’s loose lips and apparent fixation on farm animals in makeup has shown that he does not have the judgement to be President.

Barack Obama Addresses the Rumors about His Muslim Faith

Democrats Betray Fourth Amendment with Surveillance Bill

The cowardly Democrats in the House of Representative and Senate have betrayed the American people by backing down and giving President George W. Bush the Surveillance Bill on a silver platter. Thanks to the blue wimp donkeys, President Bush now has the power to further erode what little is left of the Fourth Amendment.

The Surveillance Bill gives greater power to the Federal government’s initiatives to spy on law-abiding Americans without court approval. It also grants immunity to companies, which voluntarily comply with the Federal government in violating your rights. In short, the government wants to continue to spy on you, and give you little recourse, if any.

The passing of the Surveillance Bill has extended a shameful era where you, as a private citizen, may be put under intrusive investigation without a warrant. And, by the way, the surveillance warrants are available. The Bush administration just does not want to be troubled with requesting them through proper channels. Apparently, convenience trumps your Fourth Amendment rights.

What good is a Democrat majority if the Democrat officials just rubberstamp a very unpopular Republican President’s initiatives? Isn’t the Democratic Party supposed to be standing up to the President? Isn’t the Democratic Party supposed to be standing up for our civil rights?

Obama Has Learned Nothing from Jesse Ventura

Are you as stunned as I am that Obama would have the Democratic nomination almost in the bag and then--on a silver platter--hand Hillary such a delicious soundbite about bitter small town Americans clinging to guns and religion? He might have been okay if he had omitted the word "religion," but he just had to say it and alienate 1/2 of Pennsylvania and 3/4 of North Carolina. Either Obama has a fear of success, or he forgot what happened to Jesse Ventura when he called religious believers weak-minded.

Obama has done an abysmal job on damage control during the last couple of days, and Hillary is managing to turn his mistake into a strong (but completely dishonest) campaign message. If this story does not go away in the next few days, Hillary might be able to have a voter surge, gain some extra delegates, stay in the race, and almost guarantee a deadlocked convention. If that happens, the 2008 Democratic Convention is going to be the most exciting political event in a long, long time. This could be the big debacle that splits the party.

Ohio Hospital Contests Hillary Clinton's Dead Mother and Baby Story

Hillary Clinton has long been called a congenital liar, and she has spent most of her career living up to this shady reputation. While her latest gaffe may not be a deliberate lie, it is an example of Hillary repeatedly telling a story that is not true.

Hillary has been roaming the nation talking about how Trina Bachtel and her unborn baby died after being denied healthcare by a hospital in Ohio because Bachtel did not have $100 to pay for treatment. The problem is that this story is apparently not true.

According to The New York Times, a newspaper which sometimes reports accurate stories, the O’Bleness Memorial Hospital in Athens, Ohio is denying the story and explaining that the woman was, in fact, insured and did receive medical treatment. Trina Bachtel did actually die, but it is not because she was refused treatment as Hillary is claiming.

The tragic story about the death of Trina Bachtel and her unborn baby makes for great political soundbites, but how can we be surprised that it is not true? The tale just sounded too perfect to be anything else but propoganda. The fact that the words came out of Hillary Clinton’s mouth certainly did not augment the story’s believability.

Well, here we go again. Another one of Hillary Clinton’s favorite stories has been exposed as a fraud. Maybe Hillary should place a call to some old friends to see if they have any more good stories for the campaign trail. Certainly, Al Gore has a few good tales left.
