Obama brought a Knife to a Gunfight

By Kimberly Morin

The first presidential debate was held tonight in Denver, Colorado and moderated by PBS’ Jim Lehrer. The debate was focused on domestic issues and ran for 90 minutes. From the very beginning, Romney was articulate, confident and was well versed in each topic covered. Obama, without his teleprompter, sounded unsure of himself, inarticulate and like a Junior Senator from Chicago at his first presidential debate. If you didn’t know who the president currently is, you would have assumed it was Mitt Romney. He came off as presidential and a leader while Barack Obama came off as someone who didn’t really know the answers to the questions and maybe didn’t prepare enough for one of the biggest events in his political career and certainly didn’t hold confident leadership qualities.

Romney had some great ‘one liners’ during the debate that are worth repeating:

When Obama claimed that Obamacare would bring down the cost of healthcare –

In my opinion Gov’t isn’t effective at bringing down the cost of almost anything.

When Obama tried to present facts about Romney’s plan that weren’t true –

Mr. President, you’re entitled to your own airplane and your own house but not your own facts.

Some of the best highlights were on Twitter, during and after the debate by Democrats who were clearly crushed by Obama’s performance:

Already trying to blame Kerry (Obama’s debate partner) for Obama’s poor performance –

@mripple: John Kerry not a good foil. Obama needs somebody who morphs while he speaks.

(This from Michael Moore – uber anti-capitalist and far left wing extremist) –

@MMFlint: This is what happens when u pick John Kerry as your debate coach

The uber-Liberal Joan Walsh of Salon.com –

@joanwalsh: Someone close to the president has to help him figure out the roots of his um’s and uh’s. He seems so tentative…

Bill Maher (who donated $1 million to Obama’s campaign had a couple) –

@BillMaher: Obama made a lot of great points tonight. Unfortunately, most of them were for Romney

@BillMaher: i can’t believe i’m saying this, but Obama looks like he DOES need a teleprompter

Maggie Hassan WILL raise Taxes and thinks Voters will LIKE it

By Kimberly Morin

 

Maggie Hassan, Democratic candidate for Governor has a slight problem – her record. Hassan was a New Hampshire State Senator for several years before being voted out in 2010. One of the reasons was due to her ‘taxing’ problem. While Hassan may like to claim she won’t raise income or sales taxes, she certainly loves raising all kinds of other fees and taxes that necessarily hurt the working and middle classes in New Hampshire. She has specifically said she will raise taxes and fees and actually believes the voters will like it. From the Portsmouth Herald:

Hassan said before anyone can talk specifics about taxes, the state needs to evaluate its revenue and determine its funding priorities, but she did say there are multiple tax cuts that could be reversed.

“There were a lot of back-of-the-budget tax cuts that the Republicans put into this last budget that we’re going to have to review and look at,” she said. “When you look at some of the back-of-the-budget tax cuts and other tax cuts the Republicans made the last two years, I think there are some things that most taxpayers of New Hampshire would agree that we could restore.”

Unfortunately Hassan is serious. She actually believes that taxes should be raised on New Hampshire residents even during this abysmal recession that her dear leader Obama has kept this country in for almost 4 years. Hassan was booted out of the State Senate in 2010, in all likelihood due to her love for raising fees and taxes. New Hampshire residents enjoy the freedom of a small government and paying less in overall taxes than their neighboring states. Apparently Hassan hasn’t gotten the message.

While Hassan was in the State Legislature, she raised taxes and fees over 33 times. Those are 33 reasons alone not to vote for her as Governor. Those were 33 reasons alone she was voted out of office. From an ad paid for by the Live Free PAC:

“Two years ago, voters rejected Maggie Hassan’s tax record – voting her out of office,” a female narrator says. “As Senate Majority Leader, Hassan pushed a budget with over $300 million in higher taxes and fees, 33 tax and fee increases, a controversial new tax on small businesses, higher taxes on rooms and meals [and] increased fees for vehicle registration. Even a new tax on camping! Maggie Hassan believes in high taxes. New Hampshire doesn’t.”

The Obama States of Amerika

By Kimberly Morin

In what is far creepier than even the Obama logo that came out in 2008, the Obama campaign released their version of the American flag. They are actually selling this propaganda (reminiscent of Communist and Fascist eras gone by) on their campaign site. Obama has been the most divisive president in modern history. He has divided this country by class, gender, race, religion and everything in between. Obama’s version of America is far different than what the Founding Fathers intended and far, far different than what the majority of Americans want. As noted by a commenter on Twitchy’s blog about this flag, it is the ‘Obama States of Amerika’.

In the United States of America

You are protected to seek ‘life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness’.

In the Obama States of Amerika

You are entitled to free food, housing, health care and a college education. The middle class and those above will be forced to pay for this even though they were personally responsible and grabbed ahold of the limitless opportunities afforded them by the United States of America.

In the United States of America

You are guaranteed ‘Freedom of Speech’.

In the Obama States of Amerika

If you disagree with Obama’s vision for a European-style socialistic America, you are a racist.

If you dare tell the truth about Obama’s failed presidency:

  • More people in poverty than in years;
  • More people on food stamps than ever;
  • More people on welfare than ever;
  • More people out of the workforce than in history

you are a racist.

In the United States of America

You are allowed ‘Freedom of Religion’.

In the Obama States of Amerika

You are free to bash Christianity but if you dare bash (or tell the truth) about Islamic Extremists, you are a bigot.

In the United States of America

We call Islamic Jihadism what it is – a terroristic attack on America.

In the Obama States of Amerika

Islamic Jihadism is ‘workplace violence’ or justified by an anti-Muslim video (see ‘Freedom of Speech’ above).

Obama’s version of the American flag is insulting to Americans. Obama continues to divide this country as he has for the past 4 years. This country is in a far worse place than it was 4 years ago both economically and ‘emotionally’. Obama has put policies into place that have made the economy far worse; his divisiveness, derisiveness and outright demonization of some Americans is despicable. The fact that the Obama campaign decided to create their own version of the American flag says all you need to know about Obama – he is not for uniting America, he is for uniting the Obama States of Amerika (those who believe that the United States of America should be an entitlement, secular, hate-filled society where only one opinion – theirs – matters).

UPDATE:  It appears the Obama campaign has taken down their despicable propaganda flags for sale.  Damage done.

Who would You hire – Kennedy vs Bielat – Compare Resumes

By Kimberly Morin

A new video has been created by the Bielat Campaign comparing the resumes of Sean Bielat and his opponent Joseph Kennedy III in the Massachusetts District 4 Congressional race. It’s painfully obvious that Bielat has far more experience than Kennedy. Kennedy literally only has a few years of experience working in the public sector. He has spent the majority of his life in school and living at home with Mommy. Bielat has many years of experience running successful businesses in the private sector and as a Marine Reservist.

Get an Exclusive sneak peek at the new video here.

Sean Bielat understands the struggles of the middle class in his everyday life because he is part of the middle class. Kennedy is a trust fund baby who just recently moved out of his Mother’s house in order to run for office.

Kennedy believes that Tel Aviv is the capital of Israel and he has the gall to believe that taxpayers will really like it when he raises taxes on them. Bielat understands the support that America needs to provide Israel and knows that raising taxes in this economy is absolute insanity. Kennedy doesn’t have a grasp on reality. His beliefs are that big government is the answer. Bielat lives in reality. He believes that ‘we, the people’ are the answer. Kennedy believes that we ‘belong to the government.’. Bielat believes that the ‘government belongs to us.’

Elizabeth Warren has little respect for Massachusetts Voters

By Kimberly Morin


Elizabeth Warren (Democrat) is running for the Senate seat in Massachusetts currently held by Scott Brown (Republican).  As her candidacy has unfolded, so has her past of fraudulence and continual lies.  Those things apparently aren’t bad enough.  Warren now wants to continue lying only it’s about Scott Brown and Republicans.  Rather than discuss the issues, she has chosen to outright lie about what legislation represents and not tell the truth about other policies.  Elizabeth Warren is originally from Oklahoma, maybe that’s why she has no respect for Massachusetts voters.

Below is a list of her recent lies and the actual truth, because the people in Massachusetts (and the entire country) deserve better:

Warren:  “Scott Brown voted against equal pay for women.”

The Equal Pay Act was voted on and passed in 1964 – long before Scott Brown was working in the Senate.  As a matter of fact, he was just a kid when that Act was passed (NOTE: only Democrats voted against it).  What Warren must be referring to is the Paycheck Fairness Act which is about lawsuits and forcing businesses to allow all employees to openly discuss what they are paid.  In fact, the Paycheck Fairness Act would actually hurt women  if it had passed.   Historical facts seem to be above Warren’s pay grade (earning millions does not make a person smarter).

Warren:  “Scott Brown voted to protect tax breaks for oil companies.”

There are no special tax breaks for oil companies.  “They are the standard relief afforded manufacturers, mining companies and other businesses to help recognize the costs of operations”  Increasing taxes on any company during a recession when unemployment has remained over an 8% high (thanks to Warren’s own political party) for 3 years would be voting for killing more jobs.    Apparently Warren doesn’t understand how business, the economy or the tax code works.  Scott Brown did the right thing for his constituents and the country by not voting to kill more jobs.

Warren:  “Scott Brown voted against three jobs bills.”

The ‘jobs bills’ Warren is referring to weren’t job creation bills but more spending bills.  After the debacle of the Stimulus that spent almost a trillion taxpayer dollars, Warren should know better than to think voters are willing to waste even more money.  The average cost per job ‘created or saved’ from the Stimulus bill was $300,000.  The private sector needs to create jobs and the House, with bi-partisan votes, has passed over 25 bills    that would not cost the taxpayers any money but would help create jobs in the private sector.  It is Democrat Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid that has refused to bring the bills to the Senate floor.  Maybe Warren should start hammering Reid over this.

Warren:  “The Republican agenda is to limit women’s access to health care services.”

Warren is referring to the fight over forcing religious institutions to provide contraception to employees even though it is against their religious beliefs.  Funny thing, ‘Liberal Lion’ Teddy Kennedy agrees with Scott Brown and many others, including Democrats and the Constitution that the government not be allowed to force this upon these institutions.  No one is limiting access to health care services.  Women are free to go into their local pharmacy and purchase birth control at very cheap prices.  Apparently Warren believes women are too helpless to be personally responsible for their own actions.
