Scary video: US Debt Visualized With $100 Bills

American Glob  " This is one of the scariest videos you’ll ever see.
"You won’t believe how big a trillion is, let alone $16 trillion.  Via Moonbattery"

"Not even the boobs running the government could think this can be sustained. At the current rate of spending, Obama won’t even need the four years he has been given to collapse the economy as planned."

‘Shut Up!’ Neil Cavuto and Dem Rep. Battle it Out in Must See Interview

Noisy Room   "While discussing the looming “fiscal cliff” on Thursday, Fox News’ Neil Cavuto and Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson (D-Texas) had a rather unpleasant exchange of words:"
Quoting from The Blaze:
Cavuto repeatedly pressed Rep. Johnson for specifics on what Democrats would be willing to cut as part of a budget agreement. For her part, the Texas congresswoman insisted on focusing on “revenue generation.”
“No, you told me things you’d do to raise taxes. That’s what you told me. Credits, allowances, that sort of stuff. That’s what you told me,” Cavuto said.
“You’ve got to talk about revenue generation,” the congresswoman replied.
“I know that, but it’s 100 percent of what you’re talking about, congresswoman,” said Cavuto.
“It is not 100 percent of what I’m talking about. If you’d shut up for just a second, I would try,” she responded.
Cavuto shot back: “You got to tell me one thing you’d cut. I beg you congresswoman, one thing you would say, I would cut this. What would it be?”
Rep. Johnson thought for a moment and responded: “You.”
A pause.
“You don’t know, do you?” asked Cavuto.
“Well, yes I do know, but I have to have time to explain it. I can’t tell you I’m going to walk in and cut this and cut that. First of all, it has to have be some type of dialogue. We have not had that,” she said.
Shortly after that, and a little after Rep. Johnson made a crack about Fox News “consulting with the Republicans,” Cavuto decided to end the interview and cut to a commercial break. When he came back, he issued an apology.
“Alright, first off folks, I want to apologize to the Congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson and to you who might have been offended by my interrupting the Congresswoman, not allowing a simple answer. But that’s all I wanted. A simple answer. What would you cut?” he asked.

The Fox News anchor continued, adding that “both sides have to bring something to the table. Both sides have to be specific and when they are not, it gets maybe a little bit ugly.”
“But I keep telling you here, I’ve done this to Republicans and to Democrats, I’ve done this to those who say they’ll outline revenues but never do, outline cuts but never do,” he added. “I’m not red or blue here. I’m just green and I’m seeing red right now for the craziness of all the green that’s going, but we got to do this sort of thing. We’ll stay on it.”

NBC Editor Denounces “Religious” Part of Christmas

Todd Starnes   "“I don’t like the religion part,” said Nancy Snyderman, the network’s chief medical editor. “I think religion is what mucks the whole thing up.”

"The “religion” she was referring to is celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ.
"The outburst came during a panel discussion with Matt Lauer, Star Jones and Donny Deutsch. Her response came after Jones said she focuses on the religious meaning of Christmas.
"“That’s the only reason why — that’s the only reason for me to have the holiday, quite frankly,” Jones said.
"“No, I don’t like the religion part,” Snyderman countered. “I think that’s what makes the holidays so stressful.”
"Instead, Snyderman said she wanted to focus on green trees during the yuletide season.

Yeah, we could really enjoy Christmas if it wasn't for all the Jesus stuff. The whole world loved Christmas until the Jews screwed it all up.

Hat tip to The Brenner Brief, which also posted this related column:
Christmas: Freedom ‘From’ Religion or ‘Of’ Religion?  "If someone wishes me a Happy Hanukkah or Happy Kwanzaa, am I going to cry out in protest and offense? No, I will thank them, and wish them the same, even if it doesn’t coincide with my personal beliefs. Can we not be open-minded enough to allow everyone the opportunity to not only believe as they choose, but to express those beliefs? Are we too busy crying offense that we detract from one’s own cause of promoting religious freedom for all?"

Susan Rice withdraws name from Secretary of State consideration. Accusations of racism to begin in 3...2...1...

Via Weasel Zippers: "Susan Rice Withdrawing Her Name From Consideration For Secretary Of State – Update: MSNBC Hack Andrea Mitchell First To Play The Race Card: Will Hurt GOP Because They “Forced A Woman Of Color Out”…"


Susan Rice drops out of running for secretary of state, cites 'very politicized' confirmation process "“I didn’t want to see a confirmation process that was very prolonged, very politicized, very distracting and very disruptive because there are so many things we need to get done as a country and the first several months of a second term president’s agenda is really the opportunity to get the crucial things done.”

"Rice noted that President Obama’s second-term agenda included “comprehensive immigration reform, balanced deficit reduction, job creation.”
"She added, “And to the extent that my nomination could have delayed or distracted or deflected or maybe even some of these priorities impossible to achieve, I didn’t want that and I much prefer to keep doing what I’m doing which is a job I love at the United Nations.” "

 Disappointed Amb. Rice, such a well qualified woman of color, would be denied a fair shot @ Sec State based on unfounded political attacks.


The civility of Obama supporters

Watch how the left observes every rally by conservatives through a microscope to see any trace of "incivility". Yet here is flagrant violence by the left that goes excused by liberals and their media lapdogs.
What on earth will it take for the American population to grow sick of the division brought into this nation by Obama and the Democrats?

Michelle Malkin has posted this related series of reports:

“There Will Be Blood”: Union Violence in the Age of Obama "Today’s column sets the Democrats’ call for blood in the context of Obama-era union violence and incitement. He helped build that."
Obama voter, right?
"On the floor of the Michigan legislature on Tuesday, Democratic state Rep. Douglas Geiss thundered: “We’re going to pass something that will undo 100 years of labor relations, and there will be blood. There will be repercussions!” Geiss referenced the Battle of the Overpass, a violent 1937 incident between the United Auto Workers and corporate security officers for the Ford Motor Company. Dozens of union activists were beaten.

"But Geiss wasn’t crying victim. This was clearly a signal to the brass-knuckled Big Labor bosses, whom Obama egged on during his Monday visit to the state. Obama inveighed against right to work with his usual class warfare dog-whistle. The thugs heard it loud and clear.  (Emphasis added.)

"New tone, same as the old tone, part 999,999,999."

Union violence in the age of Obama

When thuggery is OK   "Civility is one of the most absurdly abused of our political values. It is always centrally important to our functioning as a democracy — right up until the time someone proposes crossing the unions. Then, it goes from “can’t we all get along?” to “nothing to see here.” Then, out come the Hitler signs, the accusations of dictatorship, the huge inflatable rats, the sit-ins, the threats and even the fists, and all anyone can think to say is, “Isn’t it a shame someone had to go and get the unions angry?”"
....
"The same standards will never be applied to the unions. Not that they would abide by them. Too much is at stake. For them, the Wisconsin and Michigan fights are fundamentally about power. They need the coercive power of the state to force as many people as possible to become members and cough up dues. And they need the dues to fund the election of politicians who will protect their interests. By inserting worker choice into the equation, right-to-work risks crimping the whole enterprise.
"So they will fight and claw — civility be damned." Rich Lowry

Michigan’s Modest Labor Reform  "To hear the Democrats tell the tale, you would think that Governor Rick Snyder and Michigan’s Republican-controlled legislature had abolished unions. In fact, the legislation merely prohibits unions from forcing workers to pay dues to them as a condition of employment, which is why such measures are called “right-to-work laws.” The law imposes no limitation on unions’ ability to organize, to engage in collective bargaining, or to strike. It merely forbids them to take money out of the pockets of workers who do not wish to join them."

Obama's Tacit Approval of the violence in Michigan   "Obama's implied consent has been evident throughout his presidency. I don't ever recall his position regarding the unprosecuted Black Panther polling incident. If only a journalist would ask him to weigh in. And now, nary a one dare ask him to opine on the Michigan politicians and union officials with their harsh dialogue and suggestions of coming violence. Obama should know fomenting when he hears it, shouldn't he?"

'There Will Be Blood'  Big Labor shows its ugly face in Lansing.   "Obama went on to laud Big Labor: "You only have to look to Michigan--where workers were instrumental in reviving the auto industry--to see how unions have helped build not just a stronger middle class but a stronger America." By all means, let's look. Here's a report from TheTruthAboutCars.com:"....
