Jennifer Rubin: Immigration ruling disappoints the no-enforcement crowd  " In this, Obama has finally achieved the status of not being Bush. His predecessor helped craft and fought for a comprehensive immigration bill. Obama could have done the same, but didn’t."

Should Christians Disengage from Politics?

Sodahead "There used to be a time when we did live a quiet and tranquil life because there was a time when Christians engaged their world culturally and politically. The goal has never been to save the world through politics but to put politics in its proper place. Our false sense of quietude and tranquility have gotten us to the place where we are losing what many fought so hard to gain.

"What if a government starts molesting people for their beliefs or even their mere existence? What should a Christian do? The slave trade, the holocaust, and racial discrimination come to mind. The anti-slave trade was headed up by Christians. Study the life of William Wilberforce (1759-1833) if you don’t believe me. So was the civil rights movement."  Via Godfather Politics

Gay pride in the era of Obama and the Democrats

Nice Party, Barack… Gay Activists Flip Off Reagan at White House Pride Party
Comments:

Moe:  Zoe Strauss on her Facebook page: “Oh, make no mistake, I think Reagan was an absolute monster and I hate what he did to the United States and to the world. I love a lot of people, but I hate Reagan. No question. I absoutely hate Reagan. All US Presidents are murders and saviors. Reagan was one who set us up for the downfall.”Why exactly was she invited to the White House?

Francesca:  Will there be a hetero pride party??? I really don’t care what the gays do in their private life, BUT I am sick and tired of it being pushed in my face. A gay pride celebration and dance at the White House??? Pandering much? Good grief.

President Obama makes remarks at an event to observe LGBT Pride Month at the White House.  WhiteHouse.gov

Aren't You Proud About White House Party Behavior

Zoe Strauss also insisted on telling President Reagan’s White House portrait that he was number one, but her angry TwitterPic had no caption, as she chose to delete her "F–K YOU, REAGAN" commentary.  
It seems both Strauss and Hart are epic fails on public civility. But after the Cheesehead Fleebagger episode and the occupation of the Wisconsin State Capitol, it is no surprise which side has left behind their anger management therapy.
Straus, however, made herself out to be the life of the party by posting another picture making out with another individual under Reagan’s portrait. 


Dan Savage and his partner Terry Miller visited the White House for the Obama administration’s “Pride Reception.” There, Savage wore a pin reading “EVOLVE ALREADY”
"Prior to his selection by the Obama administration, [Savage] was the founder of GLSEN, where he famously advised a teenage boy to use a condom after the boy came to him for advice about sex with men in a bus station bathroom."

Communist Defector Speaks Out on America’s Marxist Future

New Zeal  "A top communist defector is warning of an unprecedented “alliance” between the Democratic Party and the Communist Party, reflected in the CPUSA’s endorsement of Barack Obama for president in 2008 and the party’s continued support for Democratic Party policies. But is this warning going to be too hot to handle for the media? And the Republicans?"

Charles Krauthammer: Obama’s amnesty-by-fiat: Naked lawlessness

Charles Krauthammer  "This is utter nonsense. Prosecutorial discretion is the application on a case-by-case basis of considerations of extreme and extenuating circumstances. No one is going to deport, say, a 29-year-old illegal immigrant whose parents had just died in some ghastly accident and who is the sole support for a disabled younger sister and ailing granny. That’s what prosecutorial discretion is for. The Napolitano memo is nothing of the sort. It’s the unilateral creation of a new category of persons — a class of 800,000 — who, regardless of individual circumstance, are hereby exempt from current law so long as they meet certain biographic criteria.

"This is not discretion. This is a fundamental rewriting of the law."

Premium Nonsense On Medicare

This email came today, so I did a cursory search to see the truth behind it:

Oh, you weren't aware this was in the Obama Healthcare bill? Guess what, you aren't alone. There are more than a few members of Congress that aren't aware of it either.  http://www.gop.gov/blog/10/04/08/obamacare-flatlines-obamacare-taxes-home
VOTERS NEED TO KNOW.
Now carefully look at Medicare:* Look at the 2014 Monthly Medicare Insurance Premium rate compared to the today’s rate:
** Look at the 2014 Medicare Part "B" rate compared to the 2013 rate: "The per person Medicare Insurance Premium will increase from the present Monthly Fee of $96.40, rising to:$104.20 in 2012

$120.20 in 2013and$247.00 in 2014."

This link came back from FactCheck.org
Q: Will the new health care law raise Medicare’s basic monthly premium to $247 in 2014, as a viral message claims?

A: No, Medicare officials project the basic premium will be less than half that. But the law will eventually cause 14 percent of seniors with incomes over $85,000 a year ($170,000 for couples) to pay higher "income-related" premiums, up from 5 percent currently.

Bottom line is however, that premiums will go up. More here:

FULL ANSWERThis widely circulating message is similar to a falsehood-filled screed that went around last year, urging "retribution" against members of Congress in the 2010 midterm elections. This message makes somewhat different accusations — also false — and urges voters to "remember" in November 2012.....

NBC: New York Times ponders the decline of NBC News

Thomas Lifson  "In an unintentionally hilarious article, New York Times scribes Bill Carter and Brian Stelter manage to analyze the ratings fall of NBC News without ever considering the effects of the swing to Obama sycophancy that has characterized that operation.  In fresh memory, one finds, for example, the outrageous editing of George Zimmerman's 911 call to make it appear he was racist, Andrea Mitchell's outrageous editing of a Mitt Romney speech on MSNBC  to make it appear he is an out of touch dolt (omitting the central point of his discussion of ordering a sandwich at WaWa and laughing on air at him), and the network's evening news broadcast failure to inform viewers about Fast and Furious until the Issa committee voted him in contempt of Congress."

NBC: Are Obama Daughters the President's 'Secret Weapon'?  "White House correspondent Kristen Welker began the fawning report by declaring: "President Obama usually leaves the family at home when he hits the campaign trail, but he doesn't hesitate to remind voters that he doesn't live alone here at the White House. In fact, political analysts say with less than five months to go until election day, it seems like we're hearing about the First Daughters more and more." "


MS Sufferer Neil Cavuto Slams 'Horses' A--es' at MSNBC for Mocking Ann Romney's MS Therapy  "As NewsBusters previously reported, MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell on Monday shamefully mocked Ann Romney for riding horses to combat her multiple sclerosis.
"On Wednesday, Fox News's Neil Cavuto, an MS sufferer himself, took on all the insensitive anchors and commentators at MSNBC that have participated in this attack on Mrs. Romney rightly calling them "horses' asses" (videos follow with transcripts and commentary):"

Former Network TV Producer Disgusted by Andrea Mitchell Wawa Edits: 'I'm Done' Denying Liberal Bias

Newsbusters- via Lucianne  "Greg Kandra, a blogger and Catholic deacon whose last job in network TV was at CBS working for Katie Couric, took to his Deacon's Bench blog to lament the sorry, biased state of TV news as NBC's Andrea Mitchell attempted to edit Mitt Romney's remarks at a Wawa convenience store into a "supermarket scanner moment"  that would make him look like an out-of-touch rich guy.
"I used to defend the networks and tut-tut liberal bias, he wrote, but no more. "Forget it," he said, "I'm done. You deserve what they're saying about you." "

White House, 'Washington Post' Coordinate Another Anti-Romney Attack  "The media coordinating with one another to create and control narratives that benefit Obama is in and of itself corrupt. After all, these outlets are all supposed to be in competition with one another and yet they all cover the same stories in the same way. Hmm…?

"There is something worse, though, and that's when the media coordinates with the Obama campaign, which is something the fallen Washington Post has been caught doing once again."

Not too fast, but furious

David Brooks: Obama’s use of executive privilege politically ‘stupid,’ ‘a winner’ for the GOP 

" “I think politically it’s stupid, because it is one thing if you’re invoking executive privilege over some national security issue. This is a policy everybody admits was profoundly stupid. Why are you not saying, ‘OK, this was a stupid policy, let’s get it out there and let’s figure out how it came about.’”

"Later in the segment, Brooks said the GOP was wise to use this against the administration to score political points.

" “I think it is a winner for the Republicans,” "

Why not just leak the Fast and Furious documents?  "If Justice Department documents that Issa’s committee seeks from Attorney General Eric Holder had been the subject of a top-secret meeting in the White House Situation Room, their contents already would have been splashed across the media. Issa could read the A1 New York Times story and be done with it."

Why Does Obama Bow?

Russ Vaughan at American Thinker  "But this guy, supposedly the most powerful man in the world, bows down? I'm of two minds here, the first being that he's suffering from AAIIS and is simply insecure and unsure of himself. That would seem to be borne out by his wimpy acquiescence to the horrid disrespect shown him by the Russians on repeated occasions. The other, more sinister, view I must consider is that he intentionally seeks to debase our nation in the theater of world politics for purposes of advancing his socialist agenda. Remember the basic tenet of socialism: it is a leveling of all things, including nations.

"What more graphic demonstration of the leveling of geopolitical power could there be than the leader of the world's most powerful nation-state bowing to third world tyrants?"

Gay activists make obscene gesture at Reagan White House portrait

IB Times

The Washington Times  "Matthew “Matty” Hart and Zoe Strauss, both from the Philadelphia area, posted photographs of themselves on Facebook giving the middle finger to Mr. Reagan’s official portrait hanging in the White House as they attended the party.

"At the reception, Mr. Obama told the attendees that the day is approaching when gay citizens will enjoy full equality in America." ....

"Also during the White House party where some people flipped the bird at Mr. Reagan’s portrait, a transgender man dropped down on one knee and proposed to his partner. The festivities occurred about two months after Mr. Obama announced his support for same-sex marriage."

It's come to this: Marine Corps musicians playing dance music
 for the occasion.

Obama Celebrity Fundraiser Barrage Worries Some in Hollywood

Hollywood Reporter, via CalChronicle  "Some of the president's most ardent entertainment industry supporters quietly tell The Hollywood Reporter that while they realize he needs to deploy all of his weapons to compete with deep-pocketed Republican super PACs, they fear the increasing reliance on stars and celebrity contests could backfire with swing voters and mobilize the right."
..." "It's a mistake," a veteran Hollywood exec says flatly of the event, which the Drudge Report headlined "Checks in the City." The exec adds: "He's supposed to be a man of the people, and he's hanging out with Anna Wintour? Is he trying to turn the election into a celebrity reality show?" ".

Reaction was particularly strong to the $40,000-a-plate dinner co-hosted June 14 by Sarah Jessica Parker and Vogue editorAnna Wintour with guests including Meryl Streep, Aretha Franklin and Bravo's Andy Cohen. Critics say the tony, heavily promoted event­ -- Parker sent an e-mail to supporters promising the evening would be "fabulous," and Wintour posted a video online urging supporters to enter a lottery for two tickets -- risked creating the impression of an elitist, out-of-touch candidate in a period of ongoing distress and growing economic inequality.

Team Obama Rallies Young Hollywood for (Yet Another) Celebrity Fund-Raiser

OBAMA CAMPAIGN: TELL YOUR WEDDING GUESTS TO SEND US MONEY  "Just when you thought the Obama campaign couldn’t get any more desperate, they come up with this: the Obama Event Registry, asking supporters who are getting married, having a birthday, or celebrating an anniversary to direct gift-givers to Obama’s re-election website:"
This from American Thinker:

MICHELLE CAMPAIGN E-MAIL: BARACK'S YOUR HUSBAND, TOO  "These personal appeals have become the desperate calling card of a sad and frightened campaign. They degrade the office of the presidency, and they mock the seriousness of American electoral politics. The entire American populace awaits with bated breath an email announcing that because Barack once bought Michelle flowers, we ought to open up our wallets for him."
