John Sununu Spars With Soledad O’Brien Over Trump: ‘Why Is CNN So Fixated On This?’

Mediaite  " “You don’t think it’s a valid question of someone posing as a supporter/surrogate?” O’Brien countered. “He’s a high level big funder. He’s talking about millions of dollars he’s thinking of donating. You don’t think it’s a big deal that person talks about the fact that the President of the United States is not a citizen of the country?”
" “I think it’s equivalent an issue as Bill Maher, who gave a million dollars to President Obama talking with such a foul mouth about women,” Sununu explained. “But you can’t pick your supporters in this country. The fact is that this country has a jobs problem and supporters of the President like CNN keep wanting to talk about other issues.”

51% RATINGS COLLAPSE: TIME TO PUT CNN OUT OF OUR MISERY  "Note to CNN: Watch this clip again. Loop it in your board rooms so everyone can watch Soledad O'Brien's face literally turn red when Sununu calls her out on her bias. Watch Ron Brownstein look like his Big Wheel just got stolen when Sununu owns him with the truth.

"These are your so-called objective journalists being publicly humiliated for their biases and bubbled ignorance of the facts.
"This is why you are failing. You cannot lie to people about your very identity and expect them to sit there and take it when competition is everywhere."

The Socialist Mask of Marxism

Part of a series titled "Say No to Socialism"
Ion Mihai Pacepa  "History usually repeats itself, and if you have lived two lives, as I have done, you have a good chance of seeing that re-enactment with your own eyes. "....
"In a 2008 column titled “Big Political Shifts Are Underway,” Joelle Fishman, chairman of the Action Commission of the Communist Party USA, strongly endorsed the Democratic Party’s candidate for the White House, appealing to all working people in the United States to back Senator Barack Obama, in order to provide “a landslide defeat of the Republican ultra-right.”
Che Guevara Flags in Obama’s
 Houston Office, 2008
"That new alliance between the Democratic Party and the Communist Party was a first in the history of the United States, the world’s headquarters of democracy and free enterprise. In November 2008, over 65 million Americans who were unable to identify the stealth virus of Marxism that was infecting the Democratic Party voted to give this party the White House and both chambers of Congress." (Emphasis added)
About the author: "Native Americans say that if you really want to know someone, you need to walk a mile in his moccasins. [Former Lt. Gen.] Ion Mihai Pacepa, the highest-ranking official ever to have defected from the former Soviet bloc, walked in all kinds of Marxist shoes over many miles and for many years. 


Then the TW posted this article yesterday: Cuban Dictator’s Daughter Predictably Bashes U.S., Endorses Obama

Catch the subtle message in this, um, cartoon?


That's no ordinary mustache he's drawing on President Bush's face; it's a Guy Fawkes mask, the symbol of the Occupy movement.

In an October, 2011 interview with ABC News, the President said of Occupy, "We are on their side."  "As we saw with the Trayvon Martin maelstrom, Obama is counting on anarchy, division, and confusion to keep his base energized. In the case of Trayvon, it was the media that enflamed the racial tensions. In the case of Occupy, it's Soros and SEIU helping to keep Occupy organized and mobilized. Granted, Occupy has protested Obama and might have -- God forbid-- even targeted Obama's Chicago campaign HQ for a terrorist attack. But it's the chaos itself that aids Obama and his SEIU/Soros allies, not where the chaos is directed."

Being 72 (and a half!) years old, but still naive I have to wonder: we condemn Muslims around the world for their lack of condemnation of the violence done in their name .
May we also ask why we do not see mass public rejection by union members and academics of the violence and demagoguery done by their colleagues in the Occupy movement?  Why do we not see mass fear of the motives and methods behind these anarchists?

Democrat commercial to attack Republicans in Wisconsin

EXPOSED: WI Democrats' Plan to Smear Conservatives and Gov. Walker!  
The Democrat commercial to be used in attacking Republicans, including Governor Walker:

It's time to investigate the IRS

Hans von Spakovsky  "Richard Nixon ordered the IRS to conduct tax audits of those on his infamous “Enemies List.” Now, a spate of investigations and leaks coming out of President Obama’s IRS raises concerns that this administration may also be using the power of the nation’s most feared agency to silence its political opponents. "
....
"Somehow, the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), a gay advocacy group, got its hands on Schedule B of the tax return filed by the National Organization for Marriage (NOM)—a conservative values organization that has sparred with the administration and liberal groups over homosexual marriage. The HRC – soon followed by scores of left-leaning publications, magazines, and blogs like the Huffington Post and Mother Jones – published the confidential document that revealed the names, contact information, and donation amounts of anyone who had given over $5,000 to NOM." 

If The Truth Will Set You Free, What Will the MSM Do?

Andrew Klavan-on the Culture  ..."And that’s good! Because leftists are good. So if they have to lie or twist or distort the facts to fool the ignorant populace into accepting their programs and ideas, that’s a good thing. Because their programs and ideas are good. If they weren’t good, they wouldn’t lie about them, because then they would just be corrupt, dishonest, morally desiccated purveyors of disinformation who aren’t making an honest living but instead go to work each morning intending to mislead an audience they despise. And that’s not possible. Because they’re good."




Forget Romney; Look at Obama's Public-Equity Record

Karl Rove in the May 2 WSJ:  "The auto bailout makes Bain Capital look like an amateur on job losses and outsourcing."
"To reporters at Bloomberg Businessweek, Obama senior campaign adviser David Axelrod recently ripped Mr. Romney for "leveraging companies with debt, bankrupting companies and making money off of those bankruptcies . . . [that] cost jobs and certainly wages and benefits."
"And an Obama campaign briefing paper says "Romney closed over a thousand plants, stores and offices . . . cut employee wages, benefits and pensions . . . laid off American workers and outsourced their jobs to other countries."
"The president is guilty of the same alleged sins."
"The Obama administration, after all, forced General Motors and Chrysler into Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2009 and then capriciously ordered thousands of local dealerships closed."  (Emphasis added)
....
"The president wanted the auto industry to survive, but he also wanted to reward political allies—so he gave 20% of General Motors and 55% of Chrysler to the United Auto Workers union. He stood by as the UAW forced the closure of a plant in Moraine, Ohio, where workers had joined a rival union."  Hat tip to Alan Caruba
PJ Media: How About We Compare the Investment Records of Bain Capital and the Obama Administration?  "Unbelievably, the Obama campaign seems to want to have a debate about which of the two candidates is more qualified to run the world’s largest economy. Writing earlier this year I considered where the campaign seems hell-bent on going. This is a debate that can prove only disastrous for the forces of O."

Not only does our economy not stand a chance under this administration's policies and ignorance of how business works, business people themselves are barely tolerated by this president.


"Frank VanderSloot grew up a poor kid in rural Idaho. His father made $300 a month. His clothes came from the Salvation Army. Yet through determination and hard work—and with the help of America’s free-enterprise system—today he’s the successful CEO of a global supplier of wellness products.

"VanderSloot’s rags-to-riches story is not unlike other American tales of individuals who have benefited from the free market. In VanderSloot’s case, however, that success came with a price—but only when he decided a write a check to a super PAC that supports Mitt Romney." 
“The whole free-enterprise system has been so good to me and my family, I want to protect that,” he said. “I now see that system under attack.”

Obama's Black Friday

Warning Signs  "Black Tuesday, October 29, 1929, marked the beginning of the Great Depression, but for Barack Obama, last Friday was Black Friday because the U.S. Department of Labor announced that only 69,000 jobs were added in May, well below expectations that it might reach 150,000. The official unemployment rate ticked up to 8.2 percent, but it is actually far closer to 15 percent." 
...."“GM employed roughly 252,000 workers in 2008. Now it has 207,000, with 131,000 of them working in foreign nations.” Citing data from the National Automobile Dealers Association, Rove estimated that “as many as 100,000 Americans lost jobs at the companies’ dealerships.” "  Alan Caruba


Ernest Istook on the Obamacare Hearings


However, the Obama administration does get praise from some international sources:
 Cuban Dictator’s Daughter Predictably Bashes U.S., Endorses Obama   "Last week, Castro received a U.S. visa for the first time in 10 years to attend the Latin American Studies Association Conference in San Francisco. This at a time when Cubans who speak up against the misery, hopelessness, and repression on the island are repeatedly jailed, harassed or, like dissident blogger Yoani Sanchez, denied authorization to travel."

"Barack Obama: Drone Warrior" and other self-enhancing security leaks by this administration

Charles Krauthammer  "The article could have been titled “Barack Obama: Drone Warrior.” Great detail on how Obama personally runs the assassination campaign. On-the-record quotes from the highest officials. This was no leak. This was a White House press release."
"Why? To portray Obama as tough guy. And why now? Because in crisis after recent crisis, Obama has looked particularly weak: standing helplessly by as thousands are massacred in Syria; being played by Iran in nuclear negotiations, now reeling with the collapse of the latest round in Baghdad; being treated with contempt by Vladimir Putin, who blocks any action on Syria or Iran and adds personal insult by standing up Obama at the latter’s G-8 and NATO summits."
Liberals claim the Obama presidency has earned America respect around the world. Really? See how Obama and Hillary are pictured in this Israeli cartoon below:
Jerusalem Post Still think Clinton will be more respected than Obama?
...."One capture could potentially make us safer than 10 killings. But because of the moral incoherence of Obama’s war on terror, there are practically no captures anymore. What would be the point? There’s nowhere for the CIA to interrogate. And what would they learn even if they did, Obama having decreed a new regime of kid-gloves, name-rank-and-serial-number interrogation?"


Leak of the day; egregious and criminal: Obama Order Sped Up Wave of Cyberattacks Against Iran  Read this article for yourself and see how much intelligence was given up to our enemies by this man whom voters have placed in charge of America's safety; all to enhance his own image. TD   Via Blackfive

UK Guardian: Leaks on Obama's security record give ammunition to left and right
"Mike Rogers, the Republican intelligence committee chairman in the House of Representatives, last month said that administration leaks revealing details of a failed plot out of Yemen to blow up a US-bound plane, exposed by an informant, jeopardised a continuing intelligence operation."


Salon: A White House obsessed with secrecy and punishing whistleblowers loves classifed disclosures that glorify Obama  "So exposing classified national security information is an act of criminal evil when done by a whistleblower to expose high-level error or abuse, or to a court trying to assess the legality of the President’s actions. But it is an act of great nobility when done to venerate the President as a strong and tough warrior. That’s the manipulative, propagandistic game-playing this administration exploits with its secrecy powers and whistleblower prosecutions."

Stunning Democrat Hypocrisy

American Thinker "If you are offended by this egregious limitation on your freedoms, you can take your complaint personally to Attorney General Eric Holder at his Department of Justice office located here:

"Of course, I'll wager you'll need a photo ID to gain entry to this voter/taxpayer-funded facility."

Funny they don't feel that way for their own party conventions.  "On Saturday, Massachusetts delegates will meet in their state's Democrat party convention. The votes of these delegates will determine whether there are primary elections for their party nominations. With so much at state, Democrats have decided to implement Voter ID requirements:" (See page 14 of 32 in the brochure linked)

And yet, the liberal cartoonists draw the affair like this:

Check out the word "suppression" on the (obviously) Republican's shirt.

The unsweetened truth about Nanny Bloomberg’s soda laws

David Harsanyi  "This is nothing new in New York. Bloomberg, who embodies C.S. Lewis’ observation that “those who torment us for our own good torment us without end,” has banned smoking in bars and restaurants, public parks and on private terraces. He has gone after salt and he has banned trans fats in restaurants. He is America’s leading proponent of using punitive measures to dictate perfectly legal habits. “We’re not taking away anybody’s right to do things,” the mayor explains, “we’re simply forcing you to understand that you have to make the conscious decision to go from one cup to another cup.” "  (Emphasis added)

Top 10 class warfare attacks by President Obama

Human Events "Apparently, “tax the billionaires” is a better rallying cry for his reelection campaign than “look at my record.” Here is the list, not for the faint of heart, of Obama’s class warfare attacks."  One such:
....6. Promote the Occupy movementThe president has lent his moral support to the Occupy Wall Street movement, even as the protests turned violent and the group became infested with criminal activity. He hitched his ride with the motley activists early on, saying last October the movement was a reflection of a “broad-based frustration about how our financial system works.” Spoken like the Alinsky-styled community organizer that he remains at heart.
