Mitt Romney released his tax returns from 2011 today. He made roughly $13.7 million from his investments. He paid $1.9 million in taxes and gave over $4 million to charity.
Giving 30% of your earnings to charity speaks loudly to the construct of a persons character because it’s what you do when you don’t *have to*.
Despite all of Mitt Romney’s shortcomings, most of which are optical stiffness, he and his wife are very genuine, honest, caring and generous people.
Univision reporters questioned President Obama about Operation Fast and Furious. His response was not only manufactured spin, it was blatently false.
Operation “Wide Receiver” during the Bush Administration was a weapons tracing operation in full support and cooperation with the Mexican government. 300 firearms were tracked and the operation ended in 2007.
Operation “Fast and Furious” was started under the Obama Administration, it was a gun walking operation letting over 2,000 untracked weapons cross the border, and the Mexican government knew NOTHING about the operation.
Hopefully the Univision audience can spot the disingenuous lies so easily repeated by President Obama.
Don’t be distracted, lulled into complacency, or frustrated by the willful ignorance of the media majority to avoid the painful questioning. The issues comprised by the visible and public killing of our American Ambassador, and three other patriots in Libya are a BIG EFFEN’ DEAL. They deserve better.
Glen Doherty – Tyrone Woods – Sean Smith
There is an increasing probability Ambassador Stevens, Tyrone Woods, Glen Doherty and Sean Smith were killed by the very “Rebels” Secretary of State Hillary Clinton supplied with money and arms. Indeed, as more details emerge the actual weapons used to kill these Americans might have been provided by the very NATO support operation Secretary Clinton coordinated.
Further, in attempting to obfuscate the willful neglect in President Obama’s Weekly Address last week, he claimed the two Navy Seals, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty, were part of ambassador’s stevens security detail. THIS IS A LIE. (more…)
I’m just dumbfounded by this. WTF? There are multiple layers of consideration for this latest Obama Campaign concept Their Own Version of the American Flag. The Obama Flag.
Personally I just can’t fathom the layers upon layers of self-serving narcissism this image reflects upon a sitting President. Either the campaign is oblivious to the optic, or they have an intentional desire to provoke a visceral response. Can they actually be THAT disconnected?
This is more than just misplaced marketing imagery, it has to be. A marketing campaign for a sitting U.S. President thinking it was in any way appropriate for the Stars and Stripes to be manipulated to reflect the ideology of “one man”; while simultaneously pontificating about the need for a President to be a representative of “all Americans”?

President Obama’s campaign is selling a new “Obama Flag” of America.
However, as Jim Hoft points out at Gateway Pundit… it is eerily familiar to a recent visual

President Barack Obama provides the Point: “Collectivism” (Scarcity Mentality) – Meaning there is only a specific or finite amount of economic resources; and subsequently “fairness” is defined by appropriate division, or “redistribution”, by the government of the finite resources, wealth. [Only one pie to be divided].
Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher provides the Counter Point: “Individuality” (Abundance Mentality) – Meaning there is an infinite amount of economic resources available; and subsequently “fairness” is defined by access, or “opportunity”, for the individual to seek unrestrained growth of resources, wealth. [Create more pies]. (more…)
(Read His GITMO File) In the early 80’s he -and his cohorts- were our enemy (he was in his early twenties); then in the late 80’s with the Mujahadeen he became an ally (early thirties); then when the Mujahadeen evolved to the Taliban 90’s he became our enemy again (late thirties); In 2002 he became our prisoner (early forties), in 2007 we released him (45 years old), in 2011 he became an ally against Gadaffi (fifties), in 2012 he killed our ambassador.
David Corn at Mother Jones now admits that there is an “inadvertent” cut in the video of Mitt Romney right at the moment he is explaining the 47% comment. However, Corn is either lying, or has been lied to, about what caused the cut. Corn claims the cut was due to a video malfunction – the video recorder (hidden camera) accidentally stopped and had to be restarted by the operator, causing a few minute gap.
However, this appears easily debunked, and can be proven false with the following gif, showing the camera was never physically moved.:
Go here to see explanation. Looks like either Corn, or Jimmy Carter IV is a fibber.
The State Department and White House both claim they had “no actionable intelligence” prior to the Benghazi attack that killed Ambassador Stevens and the numerous attacks on US embassies around the Middle East.
We knew early on they were not being truthful, it was quite simply obvious. Now, as the days continue to pass, more and more information is coming out to prove with specificity the security aparatus just failed miserably. What is sickening to witness is how the Legacy Media (sans Fox and the Web) are protecting President Obama and avoiding the TRUTH.
The Libyan President has admitted to warning our US officials about the potential for violent attacks on our interests in his country around the date Sept. 11th, yet the administration and the State Department did nothing. Nothing.
Now, as predicted, information is coming out about the specific al-Qaeda connections with AQIM affiliated factions involved. (more…)
