Obama

And Obama is still trying to convince us that Obamacare is “affordable”

Mmmm, yeah, and I kept my doctor, too:

“And most folks can find coverage for $50 to $100/month. That’s probably less than your cell phone bill.”

Yeah, we’ve heard that line as well.  Of COURSE it’s affordable – when someone else is paying for it (and not when it’s not).  Now, my cell bill, for two lines, is much less than $100 but a bit more than $50.  But tell me, WHO else has health insurance for that amount of money – if they have to pay for it themselves?  Especially as Chief Proctologist & Hectorer-in-Chief (in politics, that is) Zandra Rice-Hawkins (who is rather upset because REPUBLICANS ARE SABOTAGING Obamacare – who would EVER think that??):

Sidenote: WHY is Rice-Crispies being quoted in the Charlotte Observer?  Why would they down there care about what’s happening here in NH?

Data Point: How to “correct” the Income Inequality between the US and the rest of the world?

After all, when you consider the basis point of not just “99% vs the 1%” in the US (as the Marxist / SJWs complain, who want to use Government to “equalize” everyone and thing) but instead, judge the world against the US, we ARE the 1% of the world and the rest of the world hates it and thinks, like American SJWs, that we “stole” all that wealth. So, how to “level” that field?

As has been said before “make us all serfs again”.  DC Whispers has an interesting take on this (emphasis mine, reformatted slightly); I add the Progressive doxology “from whom all blessings flow?”:

…The “Before Obama” and “After Obama” figures make clear how the millennials were targeted for what has to rank as one of the most damaging bait and switch frauds in human history. Feed them easy money for college courses that have no application in the real world, give them a near-worthless piece of paper at the end, and charge them tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars for being victims of the scam.

When you keep pulling bricks out of the Wall that is Society…

Interesting article to puruse:

Obama’s Social Experiments Are Wreaking Havoc on America Today

Can you see where this is going?  When you upset and then throw away long term Society’s norms built up over hundreds of years for the sake of “PROGRESS!”, why should anyone be surprised? Sure, some wrongs have been righted but then Progressives just had to charge over the cliff wall and take all of the rest of us with them (abbreviated, emphasis mine).

While the Left’s advocacy on social issues and identity politics long predated Obama, the former president’s policies supercharged many of the issues dividing America in 2018. His administration helped launch the current liberal cultural wave that wreaks havoc on American politics — and extends far beyond politics. Here are five key ways Obama’s policies impacted American culture, beginning with #MeToo, sexual assault, and Brett Kavanaugh.

1. The sexual assault maelstrom.

It all started in 2011, when the Office of Civil Rights (OCR) under Obama’s Department of Education (DOE) issued a “Dear Colleague” letter reinterpreting Title IX of the 1972 Higher Education Act. The OCR letter encouraged colleges and universities to set up what Harvard Law professors Jacob Gerson and Jeannie Suk called a “sex bureaucracy.”…

Kevin Hassett: No, This Is Not Obama’s Economy

Mr. Obama came out the other day to bash Mr. Trump for being a miserable president, then took credit for how good things are during the Trump Presidency.

No one on the left seems willing to make that challenge nor are they getting up and shouting all that much about how all their prognostications about the end of the world – should we cut taxes and regulations, or just elect Trump -have not only failed to come true, the opposite has happened.

The economy is booming, and it’s not because of Obama or any Democrat and here’s a guy to make that case.

Obama is Back – Just in Time To Harpoon Democrat Chances in November

Nancy Pelosi is the most polarizing politician on the left. Invoking her name gets Republicans to the polls. Next in line for that honor is Barack Obama. The single most destructive force to Democrat election chances in American history.

When Obama speaks, Republicans show up to vote against Democrats. Last week Obama spoke. He called you racists and bigots. Does anyone have any doubt about how that will be received?

Bakken Oil Rig – North Dakota

Mr. Obama did a little dance the other day repeating the Trump Derangement Syndrome Narratives while taking credit for the Republican’s Economic recovery. Does that mean that Barry is laying claim to this economic boon?

U.S. crude oil exports saw an 80 percent increase in the first half of 2018 compared to the same period last year, according to the latest data and analysis issued Thursday by the Energy Information Administration.

That’s an increase of 787,000 barrels per day, to set a new monthly record in June of 2.2 million barrels on average per day.

Remember the “Summer of Recovery?” Trump Finally Delivered

Weekend with Bernie By Richard RamirezRemember the ‘Summer of Recovery?’ It became an annual “festival” celebrated by the media, and the left each and every season after the elevation of his majestic almighty greatness Obama I. Every summer henceforth shall be named recovery summer. We should have coined a catchy mysterious tagline like “Summer is coming.” But recovery summer never came.

Then we elected Donald Trump, and it finally arrived and in record fashion.

Obama DoJ Never Held FISA Hearings for Warrants to Spy on Trump Campaign

Obama’s Justice Department has admitted that it never held any hearings to get permission to surveil Carter Page, as a means to spy on an opposition party Presidential campaign.

(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch today announced that in response to a Judicial Watch Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit, the Justice Department (DOJ) admitted in a court filing last night that the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court held no hearings on the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) spy warrant applications targeting Carter Page, a former Trump campaign part-time advisor who was the subject of four controversial FISA warrants.

“When are Democrats and Republicans going to hold their own party to account?”

By Eddie

ObamaHitlerBushitlerWe hear it all the time Nazi, Fascist, Hitler. The comparisons are routine and common place. What recent President hasn’t been compared to the third Reich in some fashion? Democrats call Republicans fascists and vice versa. It is probably the most overused metaphor, analogy, comparison or derogatory name used in politics… and outside of politics. We all know the Soup Nazi (from the Seinfeld show). We call ISIS Islamo-fascists, whatever that means. Fox is the Nazi channel (according to liberals). The theme appears to be that Nazi’s are bad people.

What is Fascism anyhow? According to Webster it is a philosophy that puts nation before the individual. It often has a racial connotation as well. While racism may not have escaped our constitution, nationalism did.

Family Separation Week: Mother of Crying Child Was Deported by Obama in 2013

Border Patrol Agents Detain Migrants Near US-Mexico BorderTime Magazine’s (literal) poster child for the false family separation narrative was a) never separated from her mother who was b) previously deported by the Obama Administration back in 2013

From the Daily Caller.

The mother of the crying child featured on the cover of TIME Magazine was previously deported from the United States in 2013, according to ICE.

TIME Magazine pasted the image of the young girl crying as President Donald Trump looked down on her, attempting to symbolize the administration’s zero-tolerance immigration policy at the border that leads to family separations.

Tales from the BudComm – Starting with “hats off”

BudgetAh yes, the budget season begins in earnest and the table was set early on by the new Chair (effectively installed by the four Progressives that the “school community” voted into office during our “second bad blizzard in a row on town election day”) Sean Murphy with his Agenda Item #1:

  1. Call the meeting to Order & Determination of a Quorum. Please have all electronic devices on vibrate or shut off, also have all hats off during the meeting.

I have to admit, for the first time in all the years he’s been on the board, this is the best dressed I’ve actually seen him – business casual shirt and dress slacks. I also have to admit, as a matter of habit, I always wear my GraniteGrok hat when out of the house (and at the urging of the Grandson who seems to have a thing for hats, sometimes inside as well). At the time I read it, the thought was “well, I’m pretty much the only one that constantly has article of dress on”; I will leave the rest of the thought as an exercise for the reader.  However, I forgot that another Conservative also wears a ball cap – a Navy one as he’s a Navy vet.

So, per usual, in saying the Pledge of Allegiance

Hey, JHo, stop lying – Your “we need a conversation” has been going on since the 60s

Jennifer Horn with Kool-AidYou and Eric Holder (he of the “I believe, continue to be, in too many ways, a nation of cowards” slam against the US) are of the same ilk.  Really, do you really think you own the moral high-horse to be telling the rest of us we have to have a conversation (or else!) like what Hillary said?

And deep-seated cultural codes, religious beliefs and structural biases have to be changed.”

Yeah, this coming from a tax cheat – so much for moral high ground (and cheating a small businessman to boot) and who booted others from the NH GOP Committee simply because they stood up to her (so much for THEIR conversations, eh JHo?):

“What unfolded at the convention completely blindsided us,” Horn said. “We were unaware that there was going to be a challenge or there were any concerns.

Legacy – Obama, on being erased

Obama pencil Trump eraser

In my last post, I said Obama had done his work “on the cheap.” While some of his “transformation of America” was legislative (like Obamacare), much of it was simply by Executive Order. That’s good only until some other President decides to rescind it. Of course, all of the Obamanauts are complaining madly about this. How DARE Trump act this way. Well, that’s why he was elected, buckos, to reverse what Obama and his minions did.
