ObamaCare; the worlds worst blind date

 

White libs more racist than white supremacists

Mychal Massie  ...."They publicly resent women who do not ascribe to the mentality of the feminist agenda. When have you heard a white liberal speak praisingly of a woman who is pro-family, anti-abortion and who openly advocates that wives treat their husbands with biblical respect?

"White liberals are driven by grievances both real and imagined. Their solutions to problems they identify as injustices to blacks and inequality for women is to blame the historically white male establishment. Their solutions are reparations based, i.e., even if there were, in fact, one person injured as they define same, for them that is empirical evidence of a systemic racism and/or gender bias. Ergo, all persons of color and women are entitled to special dispensations based on a pandemic of social injustice.

"I am prepared to argue that the only reason white liberals bow before Obama is because he is half-Kenyan with a Muslim name who harbors the deepest of resentment for traditional America. I would further argue that the only reason they embrace his wife is because she behaves in a way that is commensurate with their low opinions of blacks."

White House won’t condemn Easter sermon charging ‘religious right’ with racism

Washington Examiner "White House Press Secretary Jay Carney walked a line between refusing to criticize the pastor who charged the “religious right” with racism while distancing President Obama from the remarks by emphasizing that the Obama family only attended  the church service due to tradition.
" “I wasn’t there and I have not spoken with the president,” Carney told reporters. “I know that he enjoys going to easter(sic) services with his family. “In keeping with the tradition that dates back many presidencies, he went right across the park here to St. John’s Episcopal Church and attended services there.”
"During the Easter service, the Rev. Dr. Luis Leon said that  “It drives me crazy when the captains of the religious right are always calling us back … for blacks to be back in the back of the bus … for women to be back in the kitchen … for immigrants to be back on their side of the border,” according to the pool report."

Rush Limbaugh weighed in on this today as well.

"The president of the United States chose a preacher whose sermon was devoted to claiming that Republicans want to force blacks to ride at the back of the bus again, a preacher who, in his sermon, said Republican want to make women go back to the kitchen, and the Obamas were probably flashing back to the old Reverend Wright days and thinking, "Man, it's good to be home."  Jesus' resurrection and Easter. Now, that's for The Bible TV show on Sunday night.  When you go to an Obama church service, all you're gonna get is Republicans being blasted."

....

".... the president inspires it, inspires racism.  It may well be the case.  I'm sure that the "person" there -- the Episcopalian person, Luis Leon -- knew that Obama was coming in advance. You know he'd have to for security and all that. So he probably said, "All right, I'm gonna really rev it up now."  So Obama's presence inspires this guy to go all divisive, all racist and start jamming on the Republicans for wanting blacks in the back of the bus and women in the back of the kitchen, when he can't name a single person who does. But the president of the United States, you may be right, may have inspired that in this preacher, and then sat there and listened to it -- and, by definition, approvingly so, by not getting up and leaving it, and by not criticizing it when he walks out.  Which does not surprise me.  I know that this president's not interested in unifying people.  But a lot of people think he is."

Obama has brought out the worst of this nation and caused divisions that will be a long time healing.

America's Big Fat Advantage (is visceral Hollywood's newest villain)

Victor Davis Hanson  " "Peak oil" and our "oil addiction" were supposed to have ensured that we ran out of either gas or the money to buy it. Now, suddenly, we have more gas and oil than ever before. But the key question is: Why do we?

"The oil and gas renaissance was brought on by horizontal drilling and fracking that opened up vast new reserves either previously unknown or considered unrecoverable. Both technological breakthroughs were American discoveries, largely brought on by entrepreneurial mavericks and engineers exploring on mostly private lands. Couldn't the Saudi, Venezuelan or Nigerian oil industry have discovered these new methods of resource recovery, given their nations' reliance on petroleum exportation?"

Sergeant Peter Cimpoes - A Ranger You Should Know

Lt. Gen. Robert Brown, First Corps Commander, presents Sgt. Peter Cimpoes with the

Silver Star Medal at 2nd Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment's award ceremony March 20,

Sgt. Cimpoes received the award for his actions during a night combat operation in Ghazni Province, Afghanistan, Oct. 11, 2012. During a heavy firefight with enemy insurgents in a targeted compound, Sgt. Cimpoes climbed to the roof of a one story building in order to reach two wounded Rangers. Once Sgt. Cimpoes reached the roof, he selflessly exposed himself to enemy fire and engaged and killed three enemy insurgents, who were as close as five meters away, with direct fire and grenades. Sgt. Cimpoes then maintained his suppressive fire against two additional barricaded shooters allowing other Rangers to evacuate the wounded from the roof to a casualty collection point. His actions ultimately saved the lives of two of his fellow Rangers.

LA County AFL-CIO’s Politically-Correct Easter

Lowering the Boom

Maybe it’s something in the water, but lefties in California seem to be all lined up this year to not celebrate Easter:

Why Obama will probably kill the Keystone Pipeline

Human Events  "Here’s what most people do not realize: major oil pipelines extending 2,151 miles from the Canadian Tar Sands already have been completed and are in operation from Hardisty, Alberta, east through Saskatchewan and Manitoba and south through eastern North and South Dakota, Nebraska, and Kansas and then on to refineries in southern Illinois and central Oklahoma, carrying 590,000 barrels of oil each day.

"If they knew that, they would certainly wonder why there is an uproar about adding capacity for an additional 830,000 barrels a day through new pipelines from Hardisty through eastern Montana and southwestern North Dakota, where it would pick up U.S. oil from the now famous Bakken Fields and then move further east through South Dakota and Nebraska to Steele City, Nebraska, where the existing pipeline travels on to Cushing, Oklahoma, and then continue it about 500 more miles to the Gulf Coast of Texas, where so many refineries are located.
....
"But there still could be a happy ending for most of us: the railroad.... "The railroads are fully capable of building new track connecting the Dakotas with our Gulf Coast-unless Obama and his Hollywood friends decide this, too, would be an environmental hazard. Stay tuned."

Obama's pastor spends Easter bashing religious right as bigots

Examiner.com  "When it comes to finding controversial pastors, President Obama sure knows how to pick them. While attending Easter services at St. John's Episcopal Church in Washington this morning, President Obama listened as Rev. Dr. Luis Leon spoke not of the resurrection of Jesus Christ, but of the religious right as bigots who hate blacks, women, immigrants, and gays. The report came from the White House press pool and posted by TheBlaze.com.

(AP)    From The Blaze

Yes, the Obamas did hear this sermon.

This is the ‘man’ who turned Easter into a leftist propaganda event, with Obama and family sitting in the front row:
Actually the Obamas were farther back than that, but who's counting?

Hillary Clinton’s legacy of mismanagement abroad

Jennifer Rubin  "The mainstream media assume that, if Hillary Clinton wants the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination, all she need do is give an imperial wave, accept the crown and then begin her effortless procession to the White House. Perhaps. The same was said before the 2008 election. Now Clinton has a foreign-policy record, which political reporters unschooled in the issues and too nervous to dissect accurately (she’s going to be president, don’t you know) would have us believe is positive. Rubbish.

"Here are her top 10 disasters:"  Full article here.

The above article is linked to by Alan Caruba in his commentary, Hillary's Burdens.  Mr. Caruba sums up his argument against a Hillary presidency with this assessment:

A Hillary presidency is likely to be an extension of the Obama presidency and that has not served the nation well. The huge national debt is beginning to penetrate the dull minds of liberals, the “sequester” has generated many news articles and reports about the government’s enormous waste of taxpayer dollars. Rising prices of everything are affecting Americans, no matter their political orientation. Foreign policy will be affected by events in the Middle East and elsewhere. None of this bodes well for a Hillary run for the presidency.

So Hillary, if she would run for the Democratic Party nomination, would do so with an enormous amount of political “baggage.”

If she is elected, do you really want your daughter to apply for that White House internship? Just asking.
