ANTI-OBAMA DOC A HIT - EVEN IN LIBERAL NEW YORK CITY

Big Hollywood   "You'd expect the new film "2016: Obama's America" to score well in red state movie theaters. The movie admonishes President Barack Obama for following the legislative philosophies of his anti-colonial father.
"Did you know "2016" is also packing 'em in in places like the Big Apple, one of the more liberal cities in the nation?"
Rush Limbaugh; D'Souza Film Success Shocks Hollywood   "Obama's view that the country has become great by virtue of pillage, so have the achieved in this country become successful by stealing from fellow citizens or by cheating them in business, or by screwing them, or just literally taking from them, or not being fair in wages or what have you.  And so it's his job to even it out.  Sowell writes about people watching this, and you can see that people who are exposed to this explanation for the first time are held at rapt attention.  The movie is not preachy. It's not table-pounding.  This is the movie where Dinesh went over to Kenya, met with Obama's brother, who lives in a hut."

SPRINGSTEEN'S 'THUNDER ROAD' LED TO ENTITLEMENT EMBRACE

Breitbart  "Springsteen has gone from the voice of real hope which requires wise change, to the voice of entitlement and being forever stuck there. It’s not surprising that one should find him an honored guest in the Obama White House and a staunch voice for today’s Democrat Party.

MISSOURI: THE ‘SHOW ME ANOTHER GOP CANDIDATE’ STATE



Ann Coulter "Akin was not even the clear choice of conservatives. In the primary, John Brunner was endorsed by both Missouri Right to Life and the National Right to Life. Sarah Steelman was endorsed by Sarah Palin. Akin was endorsed by the Democratic Party.
"The Democrats carefully nurtured Akin with millions of dollars in campaign money because he was the candidate they most wanted to run against. (Akin thinks all those Democrats voting for him in the primary merely shows that he’s got tremendous crossover appeal!)
"There’s no rehabilitating this guy. It’s a waste of money. His comments are going to cost Republicans an easy Senate seat in a moment of crisis for the nation. This one man’s stubborn refusal to bow out could cost us control of the U.S. Senate, House seats in Missouri, Senate seats elsewhere and maybe even the White House itself."

Rick Moran:  The titanic denial of Todd Akin  "In short, Akin is a disaster as a candidate and if elected would be a disaster for Missouri. But there is very little chance of that happening, which means GOP hopes for capturing the senate must depend on picking up a seat in a far more competitive race.
"And the party has got to find a way to innoculate the top of the ticket from the toxicity of Akin's remarks."

If All Else Fails: What to do if Akin doesn't step aside  "If all else fails, the Missouri GOP must mount a write-in candidacy, just as Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) did in 2010. Murkowski went on to win. And just as in Alaska, Missouri Republicans could back a woman: Sarah Steelman. "It takes a woman to beat a woman." "
PowerLine asks: IS TODD AKIN UNFIT TO SERVE IN THE U.S. SENATE?
It seems to me, from what I understand from doctors, that [a pregnancy resulting from rape] is really rare. If it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down. But let’s assume that maybe that didn’t work or something: I think there should be some punishment, but the punishment ought to be of the rapist, and not attacking the child.

A personal note about those oppressive voter ID's

Oh, I should mention that while waiting for my grandson to return from his driver's license test in Portage, Indiana I read a chart on the wall of the state motor vehicle office. 
The chart contained all the fees for every permit and application. 
It listed personal ID for voting purposes: NO CHARGE. Zip. Nada, Bupkis.
Go in and ask for it, you get it.


Or is that too oppressive for you?

Obamacare’s 18 New Tax Hikes

The Foundry  "Not only did the President and his partners in Congress take $716 billion out of Medicare to pay for Obamacare, but they also raise taxes by $836.3 billion to pay for it, with $36.3 billion hitting Americans in 2013 alone. Here’s the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) and Joint Committee on Taxation‘s (JCT) updated cost of the Obamacare tax hikes and penalties."  You'll need glasses for this one:
