Five Things Republicans Must Do to Crush the Left in the Propaganda War

Kyle-Anne Shiver  Obama and his gang of Alinskyite thugs are not as tough as they look when we know how to fight.
"When the Republicans took back the House in 2010, it should have marked the beginning of the end of not only the Obama presidency, but also the Democrat propaganda victories. But that hasn’t happened.
"Less than one year after the Tea Party wave of 2010, the Republicans are once again battered and bloody — clobbered in the propaganda war. Democrats have already effectively employed their vicious propaganda machine to great success.
"Republicans are now branded as “hostage-takers,” when they fight for prudent spending cuts. Republicans are now called “terrorists” by the #2 Democrat in the country. The Tea Party has been smeared as “extremist” for supporting government accountable to the Constitution instead of accountable to ACORN.
"The Congressional Black Caucus is variously employing racialist scare tactics to tar and feather anyone who opposes anything they want. The “they’re all a bunch of racists” ploy is trotted out to protect the president from valid criticism."

Obama’s Blame Game/ Everything except the president’s own policies is to blame for the economy.

Victor Davis Hanson   "Third, Obama has picked up a lot of technocratic data but little common sense, or even the sorts of basic facts that most people acquire in the workplace. Only a hothouse plant would think that inflating tires and getting “tune-ups” are a substitute for greater petroleum production. “Millions of green jobs” is the sort of pie-in-the-sky theorizing one hears in the faculty lounge among tenured apparatchiks, but which means little to a small businessman who must meet a payroll. No business or household off the subsidized campus or government dole could run the way Obama runs the government — and it shows in his naïveté about what is ruining the recovery."
"Lastly, there are no consequences for Obama’s blaming his failed economic policy on someone else. The media long ago gave up their role as presidential watchdogs and became invested in Obama’s success."....

Obama’s Populist Shift/ His anti-capitalist nostrums are demoralizing to the economy.   "Of course, the individuals and families who would suffer the greatest tax-penalty increases are the ones who are most likely to invest and run small businesses. In fact, Treasury data show that over 80 percent of millionaire tax filers reflect small-business income. Why demonize them? This is what Gov. Chris Christie meant when he said President Obama is sending a “demoralizing” message."....
"How about unleashing a wave of free-market capitalism, which has proven to be the best path to prosperity?
"Unfortunately, Team Obama will have none of it."

How America Fell

Mike Adams   "If students refused to renounce their religious beliefs, the university kept the money. In other words, the “mandatory student fee” was a misnomer. It was actually a “tax on orthodox beliefs.”
"This method was later modified in order to deal with churches that required belief statements for membership, or for church leadership positions. Since they were paying no taxes, they were seen as being “given something” by the government. So the government decided that tax breaks for churches must be contingent. If the church “discriminated” on the basis of belief, they would no longer be given a tax exemption. In other words, they would be taxed only if they believed in something."

Stop the anti-Christian witchhunt on campus  "Association leaders seem simply to have gotten it in their heads that where Christian values are part of a school’s hiring standards and curriculum, good, independent scholarship is impossible.
"So they launched probes all on their own."

Montana Law School Agrees to Stop Anti-Christian Discrimination    "The fact that the group was forced to sue a law school of all places to respect their first amendment rights shows the degree to which our education system been taken over by the far left.  Conservative groups should not need lawsuits to have our rights respected."

Moment of truth: Senate blocks Obama’s jobs bill

Political Cartoons by Chip Bok

Hot Air  "If only Nelson and Tester had stuck with the caucus, it would have been a perfect outcome for him. None of this gets America any closer to a bipartisan new stimulus, but it might get O a bit closer to being re-elected. And that’s what’s important.
"Here he is at his latest “big speech” this afternoon (see video), telling the crowd that tonight’s vote was a “moment of truth” even though he knew full well that the bill was doomed from day one. And intentionally so."

Mike Ramirez gets in his two cents worth

Obama an 'isolated man trapped in a collapsing presidency'

zappatrust
Rick Moran  Quoting Michael Goodwin at the NY Post:
Blaming the country is political heresy, of course, yet Obama is running out of scapegoats. His allies rarely make affirmative arguments on his behalf anymore, limiting themselves to making excuses for his failure. He and they attack Republicans, George W. Bush, European leaders and Chinese currency manipulation -- and that was just last week. The blame game isn't much of a defense for Solyndra and "Fast and Furious," the emerging twin scandals that paint a picture of incompetence at best.
"I'd say this is worrisome except it really doesn't matter. Obama is irrelevant and the country is almost officially biding its time until he's gone."

The Endangered Holdertross

Boortz Medley: If this doesn't frighten you - you're a mindless prog myrmidon*

Neal Boortz  "Normally I would tell you to watch this video. Actually .. some of you may not want to. This is a video of an “assembly” in Atlanta .. the “Occupy Atlanta” branch of the “Occupy Wall Street libtards. It is, quite frankly, one of the most frightening things I’ve seen in a long time."

The rhetoric of the Occupy Wall Street children  "Let’s start out with a little quote, shall we?"
“I have concerns about some of the language that is being used because I saw this myself in the late 70s in San Francisco, this king of rhetoric. … It created a climate in which violence took place. … I wish we would all curb our enthusiasm in some of the statements and understand that some of the ears that it is falling on are not a balanced as the person making the statements may assume.”
That was in reference to the recent Occupy Wall Street crowd, right? Wrong. That was Nancy Pelosi talking about the tea party in 2009. What does she have to say about the Occupy Wall Street kids? “God bless them.” Let’s take a look at some of the rhetoric from these “blessed” kids and those who are speaking at their rallies …" More...

Occupy Wall Street vs. Arab Spring  "They are whining because they want the government to seize the wealth from the people who are earning it and give it to them, among other things.  They are whining because they want a Command economy, whereby the government controls prices, dictates wages and directs which industries will succeed and which ones will fail.  They want this type of economy, because they themselves have failed to thrive in a capitalist economy, whereby their abilities dictate how much they earn, not the government."

Herman Cain: 'Why Don't You Move the Demonstrations to the White House?



CNS News  "“When a reporter asked me the other day, well, what do you think about those demonstrations up on Wall Street, I said, first of all, Wall Street didn’t write these failed economic policies -- the White House did,” said Cain."

LA Times: Herman Cain steps up attacks on Occupy Wall Street protests"Republican presidential contender Herman Cain amplified his criticism Sunday of the growing Occupy Wall Street movement, calling the protesters “jealous’ Americans who "play the victim card” and want to “take somebody else’s” Cadillac."

Where Do We Draw the Line?

Breakpoint  "How will Christians be affected by the new same-sex “marriage” laws creeping across the country? We may end up paying a high price, as the story of Laura Fotusky shows."
..."Fotusky got in touch with New Yorkers for Constitutional Freedoms and others to find out if there were any protections for town clerks who believed that helping facilitate “marriages” between homosexuals would violate their conscience.
....  "Fotusky discovered there were no such protections for town clerks. As the Rev. Jason McGuire, Executive Director of New Yorkers for Constitutional Freedoms, dryly noted, “It’s unfortunate that when state senators were busy protecting liberal special interests and padding their campaign accounts, that they failed to protect good people of faith.” "
....
"“A just law,” [Dr.Martin Luther]King wrote, “is a man-made code that squares with the moral law or the law of God. An unjust law is a code that is out of harmony with the moral law.”
"Fotusky observed that her view of marriage does indeed square with God's law. The Bible “clearly teaches that God created marriage between male and female as a divine gift that preserves families and cultures.”"

Will Warmists Face Justice for their Deceptions?

Warning Signs  "A former government employee, Vice President Al Gore, became the face and voice of the hoax, earning millions in the process.
"What has the global warming cost Americans? Joanne Nova of the Science and Public Policy Institute has estimated that the U.S. government spent more than $32.5 billion on climate studies between 1989 and 2009, nor does that include about $79 billion more spent for related climate change technology research, foreign aid, and tax breaks for “green energy” (solar and wind).
"For deception on that scale, one might think they will be punished at some point, but it will likely be years more before those responsible for the global warming fraud will stand before the bar of justice, if ever." Alan Caruba

Israel as a wedge issue

Debbie Wasserman Schultz
Caroline Glick  " But for the first time in his presidency, last month at the UN Obama spoke to a world audience and drew a moral equivalence between Israel that seeks peace and the Palestinians who seek Israel's destruction.
"Given his record, this is a step forward.
"What caused the change?
"Quite simply, the Republican victory in New York's 9th Congressional District's special election earlier this month caused the change. Obama did not attack Israel at the UN because he is concerned that he is losing American Jewish support."....
"Traditional Democratic support for Israel began eroding with the nomination of George McGovern as the party's presidential candidate in 1972. Before Obama, Jimmy Carter was the most hostile president Israel ever experienced.
"In the 1990s, Bill Clinton was widely regarded as pro-Israel. Yet during Clinton's eight years in office, Yassir Arafat was the most frequent foreign guest at the White House. Clinton's legacy was the Palestinian terror war which broke out in his last months in office."
