The rhetoric is starting to boil and Liberal Maxine Waters is more than willing to take the lead. With wit and candor, she displays the intellect and syntax she is known for, during a speech in Inglewood, California.
The object of her criticism and scorn was the Tea Party. Her speech is trying to light the fires of racism and class warfare.
Too good to pass up.
Obama’s battle bus no symbol of hope
In British elections we’re used to what we call “battle buses”, cheerfully painted wagons, festooned with party slogans and colours.
US President Barack Obama has embarked on his first bus tour in office.
But his vehicle for the trip through the rural parts of three Midwestern states looks like it really is heading for a battle.
Terry McAuliffe was a legendary Clinton fund raiser. Al Gore called him “the greatest fundraiser in the universe.”
McAuliffe also had the Midas Touch. In 1998 he invested $100,000 into something called Global Crossing and within 18 months had $18 million in his pocket. In less than four years Global Crossing went bankrupt, but McAuliffe knew to cash out well ahead of that. There’s more of this sordid affair here.
Author’s note: I had originally started writing this piece back in November of 2010, but life events put my blogging on hold for a bit. I was just getting to the point where I thought that the left’s hatred for the Tea Party was finally starting to die down since the movement’s evolution started taking it away from the highly visible protest rallies and with it, out of the cameras and out of liberals’ psyches. Then came all of the recent hysterics by the left as the recent debt ceiling issue brought all of the pent-up hatred they have for the Tea Party coming up to boil in an embarrassing explosion of rhetoric fueled by unthinking rage that made me decide that it was time to finish this piece once and for all. With all of the events that have taken place this wound up being a lot longer than expected and needed to be broken into two parts. To start where I left off a few months ago…
Back in January Barack Obama named the CEO of General Electric, Jeffrey Immelt, head of his Jobs Council.
In July, the head of the Obama Jobs Council announced that GE was moving its x-ray business to China. At least 65 new jobs for engineers were expected in addition to staff.
Evidence that this country is on its way to the trash bin of history ala Rome:
In the first of what will be a closely watched selection process for a powerful new deficit panel, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid announced he will appoint Democratic Sens. Patty Murray (Wash.), Max Baucus (Mont.) and John Kerry (Mass.) as his three choices for a super committee charged with finding more than $1 trillion in spending cuts by the end of this year.
Obama, the “yes we can” President, has become a joke. He was always been a joke with conservatives but now the independents have been let in on the joke while the left is upset at how ineffectual he has been in pushing their Socialist dreams.
So how can Obama and his friends change this?
Caught this article in Obamico Politico:
President Obama looks past debt debate to job creation
President Barack Obama on Tuesday called a compromise to raise the debt ceiling and launch the U.S. government on a path toward deficit reduction “just the first step” toward strengthening the country’s economy and creating jobs.
Democrats are pulling out all the rhetorical stops in attacking Republicans regarding the debt ceiling debate:
The irrepressible Van Jones
Any faction in America that would put a gun to the head of 310 million people and say ‘If you don’t do it our way, we will blow your dreams away, we will blow a hole in the American economy’, that is un-American. That is not how we do business, and we refuse to bow down to those tactics.”
On Sunday Barack Obama suggested that the world might end on Monday if Republicans did not fall to their knees before him:
