(Cartoon link fixed) Obama Will Soon Offer Plans to Create Jobs. Conservatives Must Help.

Pajamas Media   "Such cynics as those at PowerLine just don’t have the enlightenment to understand:"

There are, of course, many things the federal government could do that would help the economy, like lightening the regulatory burden and cutting spending. But to acknowledge that would be a repudiation of liberalism, so the administration comes up with a laughable “Department of Jobs” proposal instead. Mostly, at this point, the administration is just hoping for the best.

....

"These novel ideas are all workable and truly bipartisan; they should appeal to libruls and conservatives alike. They are just a start and many more can be proposed. All should be included in President Obama’s BS for our brave new and delightfully green world of abundance for all."

A Politicized Justice Department Strikes Again: DOJ lawyers target a 79-year-old pro-lifer.

Hans A. von Spakovsky  "The Department of Justice is now prosecuting a 79-year-old grandfather. The reason: Richard Retta walks alongside women on the sidewalk outside a Planned Parenthood abortion facility and offers women hope that they can carry their babies to term."

While Obama’s Justice Department dismissed a critical voter intimidation case against a radical black revolutionary group, it’s going after a pro life advocate the agency calls one of “the most vocal and aggressive anti-abortion protestors.”

"Ironically, the administration claims that the pro life advocate, a Maryland man named Richard Retta, intimidated and interfered with women seeking abortions in Washington D.C.-area clinics much like members of the New Black Panther Party did to white voters during the 2008 presidential election. The difference is that the Black Panthers, clad in military attire, used weapons, racial insults and profanity to deter voters."

DOJ Special Litigation Section Strikes Out  "Last week Pajamas Media reported on the liberal ideologues hired in the Special Litigation Section of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division. This week provided a good example of how they can force local and state authorities to waste lots of taxpayer dollars and land the Department in a lot of trouble."....

"Flash forward to today. Lareau is one of the Division attorneys who filed a complaint against Erie County, New York, making numerous claims that prisoners in the local county jail were being deprived of constitutional rights.

"Erie County decided to fight DOJ rather than just roll over, which is what too many local jurisdictions do even when they have not done anything wrong."

....

"The Special Litigation Section has a history of bringing unjustified, unwarranted, and frivolous claims.  Considering its most recent hires, that record will probably just get worse."

Tea Partiers, Doing the Job the Media Refuses To Do

Big Journalism  "The media take great pride in being there to protect us, to ask the tough questions, to be the voice of the people. Just watch their promos about themselves. They are constantly pitching their civic minded vigilance while patting themselves on the back so hard as to break their collective arms.

"As it ends up, tea party members have to go out and do their jobs for them."

"Rhodes faced the president straight up and dignified and called him on the carpet. It was a marvelous thing to watch a private citizen stand up and do this. Meantime the media panders, ignores and evades doing its job. My guess is that for the most part they will probably ignore this exchange between the President and Rhodes because — well, because they consider it wrong on so many levels. Rhodes is a tea party “terrorist,” he dared confront Dear Leader, and they know they don’t have the guts or desire to confront Obama as they should.

"If the media had the ability to be embarrassed, it would be."

Betrayed by their Elders — And Their Party; Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter needs to look at who really "damaged their own race."

Pajamas Media  "While Mayor Nutter deserves some credit for calling out the teen hoodlums in his midst, it’s hard to take him seriously as someone who really wants to go after the black teen unemployment problem. You see, he has a lot in common with this country’s chief executive.

While Barack Obama was on a three-state bus tour this week in “Greyhound One,” shattering all previous presidential records for whining and excuse-making, Nutter, a deputy mayor, and the city’s water commissioner were on a junket in Rio de Janeiro accompanying Lisa Jackson, who heads Obama’s job-killing Environmental Protection Agency. Their objective: “to listen, learn, and lend their expertise on green development.” Nutter’s ultimate goal: “to make Philadelphia the greenest city in the country.”

Does the green font seem a bit too snide?





Another Day… Another Flash Mobbery…  (Video)  "In the latest incident, 10 women stormed the Shop Express convenience store along Benning Road in northeast Washington at about 3:15 a.m. Thursday.

"They loaded up on food, drinks and snacks at different parts of the store.

"Some of the women were carrying bags to hold some of the items. Then they all rushed out of the store at the same time without paying."

The economy is so bad...

The economy is so bad that:

 I received a pre-declined credit card in the mail.

CEO's are now playing miniature golf.

Exxon-Mobil laid off 25 Congressmen.

Angelina Jolie adopted a child from America.

Motel Six won't leave the light on anymore.

A picture is now only worth 200 words.

They renamed Wall Street "Wal-Mart Street".

I called the Suicide Hotline and got a call center in Pakistan. When I mentioned being suicidal, they got all excited and asked if I could drive a truck.

Obama leading the economy

Anatomy of An Obama Jobs Speech 

"So what will be in this speech? Well, looking back on his major jobs addresses of the last three years, we can predict it will contain these core elements:"

It’s the Last Guy’s Fault: Or “I inherited…” ....

Infrastructure Spending:....

Bad Energy Policy: “Green jobs” are part of every Obama jobs speech.....

Raise Taxes: ... “balanced approach“, “fair share“, “revenue increases“ and that sentimental favorite: "investments"

Straw Men: "Some folks say this speech will invent false arguments from his opponents that cannot be attributed to anyone in particular."....

Blame Congress: ....

Red States and Blue States:....

Blame Everything Else:  "Whether it is Tsunamis, Earthquakes, Oil Prices (that he could help lower), or the Arab Spring; something else is always to blame for our current economic conditions."

Investors Business Daily:  Sun Sets On The President's Policies  " As a White House-favored green-energy company files for bankruptcy, the Export-Import Bank announces $500 million in loans for solar energy projects — in India. America is being thrown under the president's bus."

Charles Krauthammer: Bad Luck? Bad Faith? Obama blames a recalcitrant providence and an unpatriotic opposition for his woes.  "Moreover, luck is the residue of design, as Branch Rickey immortally observed. And Obama’s design for the economy was a near–$1 trillion stimulus that left not a trace, the heavy hand of Obamacare, and a flurry of regulatory zeal that seeks to stifle everything from domestic energy production to Boeing’s manufacturing expansion into South Carolina.

"He sowed, he reaps."

Victor Davis Hanson: Atlas Is Sorta Shrugging

Victor Davis Hanson  "The private sector has now begun collating Obama’s public statements, the political significance of hyper-debt, the force of his new regulations, the constant talk of higher taxes, and the array of strange appointees.

"On the one hand, our Atlases are productive, entrepreneurial people who appreciate the singularity of the American experiment and the opportunity to profit and thrive, even when coming out of a severe recession. Real opportunity, they know well, is often best found in crises, not just in continued prosperity.

Atlas holding up the world

"But on the other hand, they are deeply worried that the rules of the game are changing for only the second time in American history and that they are unliked, targeted and to be punished for being successful. The result is not that the private sector is fleeing the U.S. (where would one go?). Nor are entrepreneurs and go-getters shutting down their businesses that they have built from the ground up.

"Instead, what we are witnessing is a sort of shrug, a pause, best summarized millions of times over as something like “I’m hoarding cash, hunkering down, and am going to wait this bad bunch out.”

"So the globe is tottering as the tired-of-it-all American Atlas has finally sorta shrugged."

Just a heartbeat away from being president

China Threatening U.S. Space Superiority  "In a new paper, China’s Space Program: A Growing Factor in U.S. Security Planning, The Heritage Foundation’s Dean Cheng explains the advances in China’s space program and how America must respond."

Editorial: Is A Weaker U.S. Part Of Debt Deal?  "National Security: With his boss on vacation, Vice President Joe Biden has a very important job to do. He's in China, begging communist officials to please keep buying our bonds. If they do, what's he giving them in return?

"Sending Biden to China, pardon the phrase, raises red flags about what we might commit to while he's there. What is Biden, the gaffemeister in chief, authorized to give the Chinese?"

Allen West Updated: I‘m Here to Lead Blacks Off the Democratic Party ’Plantation’

The Blaze Quoting the Huffington Post"

The freshman Republican said the fact that black leaders have done nothing in response to the recent spate of flash mobs in U.S. cities is proof of their disconnect from the black community. This summer has been marked by flash mobs in several cities, including Philadelphia and Cleveland, and are thought to be fueled by growing discontent among unemployed urban youth.

"He also went on to say that Republicans have not done well drawing black voters into the conservative movement. That said, he explained that there is an opportunity for conservatives to reach African Americans by connecting with them on the issues of “individual responsibility and accountability, faith and family, [and] hard work ethic.” " 

Hat tip to The Freedom Fighter's Journal which added this:

West went on to dismiss some African American leaders as “nothing more than overseers over that plantation” and he stated his belief that white liberals have relied upon people like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton to support Democratic policies.

From American Thinker: Charles Rangel, R.I.P.  "Congressperson Rangel appeared on the broadcast to refute charges by Congressman Allen West that traditional black leaders such as Rangel had kept black Americans on the plantantion to further their own careers. Rangel, looking wanly impotent and disoriented, responded in a befuddled, confused manner indicative of those on their way out. He bizarrely kept repeating the term plantation, plantation, plantation, as if it were a mantra offering him spiritual comfort."....

Boortz: Gotta love this guy .. not only because he’s a Leatherneck, but because he isn’t afraid to call it like he sees it.  Sorry, Neal, he's Army, but otherwise you're right on.

Michael Moriarty writes about Col. West: Remember Moriarty? He once played the Assistant DA on  Law and Order before that show turned into a leftist propaganda source.

"In my opinion, he saved the lives of American servicemen and drew a line in the sand before the likes of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, homicidal bully of Iran."

The incident that made Col. West famous Google being Google, one has to dig pretty deep into a search to find anything on a conservative that doesn't make them look crazy.

West's "Nuts" comment

West's military decorations:   His personal decorations include: Bronze Star medal, Meritorious Service Medal with three oak leaves, Army Commendation Medal with three oak leaves and Combat V-Device for Valor, Army Achievement Medal, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait Liberation Medals, Valorous Unit Award, Army Master Parachutist Badge, Air Assault Badge, Navy Marine Corps Parachute Insignia, Italian Parachutist Badge, and German Proficiency Badge (Bronze Award).

Obama to deport illegals by ‘priority’

Washington Times  "Bowing to pressure from immigrant rights activists, the Obama administration said Thursday that it will halt deportation proceedings on a case-by-case basis against illegal immigrants who meet certain criteria, such as attending school, having family in the military or having primary responsible for other family members’ care."

The Freedom Fighter's Journal  made this connection:

"If you get a chance watch “THE RISE OF THE PLANET OF APES” that goes by the subtitle of “EVOLUTION BECOMES REVOLUTION” in which a small tribe of super apes take on the UBER Leftist Fatherland of San Francisco and kick some major human butt. These smart monkeys are created by the best liberal and most politically correct scientific minds in SF with the announced goal of finding a cure for Alzheimer. The experiment goes terribly wrong when a“Frankenstein” mother ape turns on her creators and wrecks the building to protect her baby."

No, he is not calling illegals "apes". Not even close. Read on to get the connection.
