Post *Obsure* Election Night – What Happens Next?

The media and Republican goal now shifts to the historic national election of first female President Hillary Clinton.

Hillary for POTUSWith that in mind the media and the GOP “Decepticons” (the Old Guard) will proclaim New Jersey Governor, Chris Christie, as the second coming of political Jesus.   The Republican establishment will swoon over Christie’s large victory and proclaim his resounding win as evidence he is the last and only great hope for 2016.
In complete, albeit temporary synergy, the progressive media will reinforce this GOP message (in the *DROOLING extreme) because they too have a vested interest in seeing Governor Chris Christie rise to be the chosen GOP candidate in the same vein as they selected Governor Mitt Romney.

[*if you want a funny exercise: record all of the dreamy, swoony and complimentary things the media will say about Chris Christie over the next 48 hours.  Save them, and then compare them to what happens mid-summer 2016 – from the exact same people]

The media do not want a bold contrast. Bold contrasts are dangerous to progressive advancement. Bold contrasts are scary.  Bold contrasts represent “risk”.   Remember who they called “maverick” in 2007.   No, the progressive media will position to have a candidate who is ideologically closer to oppose their chosen Hillary.
Chris Christie fits that billing perfectly.   White banker, pro-amnesty, pro-Islam, pro-big government, pro-big business, pro-bailouts, anti-state’s rights, Pro-FEMA, Pro-expanding Medicaid, Pro-Obamacare;… the perfectly squishy middle-man to replace perfectly squishy Mitt Romney, who replaced perfectly squishy John McCain, who replaced.. well, you get the picture.
The GOP even groomed him in the optic of his victory speech: (more…)

Rut Roh – Now Age Is The "Glitch"…. Young Avoid New Health Plans

From inside an article sharing that most of the Obamacare enrollees are much older than anticipated (age glitches) this jumps out:
[…] A White House official said the Obama administration expects most young, healthy enrollees to wait until the last minute to sign up, citing research showing that pattern when Massachusetts embarked on a similar health overhaul in 2007. People have until Dec. 15 to enroll in coverage starting Jan. 1, with open enrollment for coverage during the year lasting through next March.

In states that are running their own marketplaces and have seen smoother rollouts, officials are now also reporting a similar phenomenon, suggesting the economics of the law play a role, too. In Connecticut and Kentucky, which have enrolled more than 4,000 people each in private health plans so far, the largest segments of enrollees in new commercial health-law plans are over age 55, much older than industry actuaries say they had anticipated. Each state ultimately expects to register several hundred thousand people in their exchanges. (read full article)

The "Fixer" Continues The Threats – White House Demands Insurance Companies Explain Why They Are Sending Cancellation Letters…

A week ago we posted the story which aired on CNN and outlined the White House threatening insurance companies to keep their mouths shut and don’t talk bad about Obamacare.
barack-obama-denis-mcdonough-2008- the fixerWhen we shared the story we included the following paragraph:

Whenever you see the words “threats” and “directly from the White House” in one sentence or phrase, you can be intellectually confident President Obama’s Chief of Staff, Denis ”The Fixer” McDonough, is the source of the pressure.

Some people took exception, a few even emailed pointing out that Denis McDonough is now the President’s Chief of Staff and would not be the one “out of the office and pressuring anyone”.   It’s simply “not his job to protect policy” and “he doesn’t have time to fill that role” was the essential framework.
Well, we don’t think Treepers are stupid.   Nor will we obfuscate by not pointing to things which -while they might break from traditional framework- are more than likely to be the reality of what’s going on:
If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck, sounds like a duck, looks like a duck – it isn’t a flippin’ swan that waddles.

Disconnected From Reality? Separation From "id"? Cue The Audio Visual Demon-stration…


Wasserman Schultz and Obama

… “and MSNBC let you say that sh!t with a straight face”?

39 Percent Approval and DROPPING !!

Obama with Valerie JarrettCAUTION ! YOU MUST remember the ideology behind who we are talking about here. This is NOT a normal presidency prone to changing directions based on public pressure. This IS a radical insurgent presidency committed to advancing a cause REGARDLESS of opinion.
Radical Alinsky-minded liberals, and Alinsky-trained community organizers, have spent years honing the skill of goal advancement AMID ADVERSITY.  Even if their behavior is acceptable to 5% of a collective group – they are able to disconnect themselves from their “id”.
There is actually a psychological training they go through where they learn to override the normal function of the psychological “id”.
In normal people the “id”, which is the unconscious sense of guilt and personality, generates needs of fulfillment from recognition of ‘doing-the-right-thing’.   In normal people if these needs are not satisfied, the result is a state of anxiety or tension. (more…)

WOW – Veteran Mom Banned From Daughters School Because She Owns A Concealed Weapons Permit….

Good Grief.    This is just way over-the-top nuts.     The school principal bans a parent from daughter’s campus because the parent holds a concealed weapons permit.  The Principal found out through Facebook.   When the media asks the principal if that is the reason, she readily admits it.  And anti-gun nuts wonder why their views are so out of touch…..  
TANYA MOUNTGEORGIA – An Army veteran living in Georgia says she wants an apology from her daughter’s former school after being banned from the building for posting a photo of her concealed weapons permit to her Facebook page, WRDW.com reports.
Tanya Mount says she was approached by a police officer from the Richmond County Board of Education at McBean Elementary School and was warned that she was about to get a criminal trespass warning.
The officer told her that the principal at the school was “scared” of her and did not want her on the school property, she told the station. (more…)

President Obama In Virginia: "I want to put the fear of God in all of you"…

Maybe it’s just because he’s never actually spent any time reflecting about meaning;  Or maybe it’s because the audience is made up of people who thrice denied accepting the existence of God in their national party platform;  but a RIGHTEOUS God is nothing to fear.

God is not to “be feared“; such a concept is actually quite silly. What would any person of compassionate -or even deliberately honest- constitution, have to fear from our Lord and Savior ?

God does not hold forth any disposition for our existence to be based on fear or threat.

It is not the Wolf of God – It is the Lamb of God.   The absence of God is fear filled – Not the “presence of“.

President Obama Fear of God 2

Sharon hits the nail squarely on the head:

barackhusseinobama has no personal fear of God. He believes he is qualified to play the role of God (see his August 2011 comments to the Jewish rabbis describing himself as being “a partner with God in matters of life and death”) and he considers it appropriate to describe his task as putting the fear of God into an audience.

Anyone who actually fears the Sovereign God does not use that kind of language toward anyone, out of some level of understanding of their own need to fear God.

Believe what obama says about himself and what he reveals about himself. Do not doubt him.
