Obama: We’re Investigating My Own Obliviousness On Obamacare Website…

Weasel Zippers

 

“Obviously my most recent concern has been that my website’s not working,” Obama said. “We’re evaluating why it is exactly that I didn’t know soon enough that it wasn’t going to work the way it needed to. But my priority now has been to just make sure that it works.”

Sebelius Posts “Tips” On Signing Up For Obamacare On Far-Left Blog Huffington Post…   

Tattering the Safety Net   "Here is irony: the people who talk the most about the need for a social safety net (including the president himself!) are cheerleaders for a health reform that is going to shred it.

"How is that happening? By means of the Affordable Care Act (ObamaCare)."

Still More ObamaCare Lies   ... "In speech after speech these days, Obama tries to shift blame for the ongoing ObamaCare debacles onto the backs of Republicans.
"In late November, for example, Obama complained that "instead of rooting for failure, or refighting old battles, Republicans in Congress need to work with us to improve those things about the Affordable Care Act that aren't working as well as they should."
"Obama's attempt to escape responsibility for the failure of his signature domestic achievement isn't surprising. But in this case, he's falsifying the record." ...  Via Lucianne

Common Core “compensation” mathematics a metaphor for Obamacare

Legal Insurrection

 

"Compensation means how much you get paid, right? Or payment for a loss? Or any of the other common usages, right?
"Reader Bronwyn was not happy when she learned that in Common Core mathematics, compensation means encouraging students to guess the wrong but easier answer, then teaching them how to compensate for the wrong answer to get to the right result:

My 4th grade daughter attends a Christian school here in Orange Co., Ca.
I do not like their choice in a common core math book at all, but I have been particularly amused by the use of the term “compensation.”
The teachers actually had to send home an email because none of the parents had any idea what the term meant. I attached a copy of the definition in the book because it just seems so fitting during this Obama Administration.
“compensation: you choose numbers close to the numbers in the problem to make the computation easier and then adjust the answer for the numbers chosen.”
All this under the lesson- Using mental math to multiply. This must be Obama’s math!
Here we parents thought it was how we got paid?

"Here’s the question posed to the students to which the featured image was the answer:"

This may make it all clear:

Just how bad are things going in America under Obama?

So, how about those talks with Iran?

Mark Steyn – Iran Got Everything it Wanted

 

"Mark Steyn’s new column is a must read…"

In Geneva, the participants came to the talks with different goals: The Americans and Europeans wanted an agreement; the Iranians wanted nukes. Each party got what it came for. Before the deal, the mullahs’ existing facilities were said to be within four to seven weeks of nuclear “breakout”; under the new constraints, they’ll be eight to nine weeks from breakout. In return, they get formal international recognition of their enrichment program, and the gutting of sanctions — and everything they already have is, as they say over at Obamacare, grandfathered in.

DEBKAfile; Enough enriched uranium in Iran for 4 nuclear weapons. N-Bomb awaits Saudis in Pakistan  "Saudi King Abdullah and Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu were not won over by President Barack Obama's pledges in personal phone calls to the two Middle East leaders last week."

Oh, well, this should make things all right with Israel.-

The US- provided nuclear umbrella - hated for so long by Obama's "pacifist" allies on the left - has been removed. Now we will see how dangerous this world will become because of those voters with the "COEXIST" and "Obama" bumper stickers on their cars.

 

Read this and tell me if Obama and the US are respected in Pakistan:  The Iranian nation stood its ground in front of the U.S., so America retreated.  "What Imran Khan said about the U.S., that it first glowers, but then retreats if you stand your ground, has proved to be 100 percent accurate. The Iranian nation stood its ground in front of the U.S., so America retreated. The U.S. knew that if an understanding were not reached then Israel’s security would be endangered."
 

 Jay Leno: Obama Told Iran 'If You Like Your Uranium, You Can Keep Your Uranium'

Arab News has a much different perspective on US-Iran: "But the game is not over yet. Israel’s influence in the US Congress is still immense, and its Congressional allies are already talking about heaping more sanctions on Iran (in order to kill the deal, though they don’t admit that).
"President Obama could veto those new sanctions, of course, but he will find it a lot harder to get Congress to revoke the existing sanctions if the final deal is done six months from now. That’s why Iran gets so little relief from sanctions now in return for its concessions: Obama needs more time to work on Congress. But Israel may still win this tug-of-war."

Jonathan S. Tobin: Iran Deal and Munich: A Fair Comparison?  "Is he right? There are those who will claim it is impossible to compare any event with one that is associated with the Holocaust and still win an argument. But whether you think the deal is as bad as Stephens thinks or whether the price of a mistake with Iran is as costly as the West’s miscalculations about Hitler, the real answer depends on whether Iran betrays Obama."

Did you imagine ever seeing a cartoon like this?

 

Iranian Centrifuge Advances   "Iran will be able to significantly diminish its breakout timing within the constraints of the interim agreement." 

Which is in disagreement with the Arab News piece above.

Obama Refers to Tea Party Members as 'Tea-baggers'

Big Government  ... "Ritter went on to accuse the President of making fun of "tea-baggers” and blamed White House Press Secretary Jay Carney for ridiculing Sarah Palin, noting that it was “beneath the dignity of the White House” to engage in this kind of political targeting. Obama defended himself, writing, “I... appreciate your concern about the toxic political environment right now. I do have to challenge you, though, on the notion that any citizen that disagrees with me has been 'targeted and ridiculed' or that I have 'made fun' of tea-baggers.”

Thomas Sowell's Random Thoughts

Townhall  ... "One of the best peace speeches I ever read was one delivered back in the 1930s -- by Adolf Hitler! He knew that peace speeches would keep the Western democracies from matching his military buildup with their own, or attacking him to prevent his buildup from continuing. Peace speeches by Iran today serve the same purpose of buying time -- until they can create a nuclear bomb.

"President Obama really has a way with words, such as calling the problems that millions of people have had trying to sign up for ObamaCare "glitches." When the Titanic sank, was that a "glitch"?
 ....

"Don't you love it when a politicians says, "I take full responsibility"? Translated into plain English, that says, "Now that I have admitted it, there is nothing more for me to do (such as resign) and nothing for anyone else to do (such as fire me)." Saying "I take full responsibility" is like a get-out-of-jail-free card in the Monopoly game."
 ....
"One of the reasons it has taken so long for some people to finally see through Barack Obama is that people do not like to admit, even to themselves, that they have been played for fools by a slick-talking politician."

Thanksgiving Proclamation

Issued by President George Washington, at the request of Congress, on October 3, 1789

By the President of the United States of America, a Proclamation.
Whereas it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor; and—Whereas both Houses of Congress have, by their joint committee, requested me “to recommend to the people of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer, to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many and signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness:”

The non-deal Iranian deal faces bipartisan opposition in Congress

"To President Obama’s dismay, the Iranians are inconveniently candid about the interim deal they struck with the P5+1. Hossein Shariatmadari, the editor of Kayhan newspaper and voice of the Supreme Leader, bragged to the Wall Street Journal that “if the right to enrich is accepted, which it has been, then everything that we have wanted has been realized.” Oops. The Iranians claim the U.S. version of the deal is not accurate (although it’s not clear whether their complaint is limited to the enrichment issue)."

Common Core third grade book goes full Dear Leader on Obama

Thomas Lifson  "I will be accused of all sorts of grievous offenses, from racism to judging too hastily, but I think it is becoming clear that Obama's two terms will be regarded as a failed presidency. His "signature achievement," Obamacare, is a mess, and it won't be fixed by any of the remedies proposed. The website problems are the least of it. The Big Lie on keeping your insurance and keeping your doctor now looks as though it will reach about half the population of the United States, once employers start dumping their insurance.

"It is axiomatic that a president who screws over half the population of the country in the most personal way cannot be regarded tenderly by history. "
