Did Barack Hussein Obama Use His Position to Help ACORN?

House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers Jr. has backed off his plan to investigate wrongdoing by the liberal activist group ACORN, saying “powers that be” put the kibosh on the idea.

Mr. Conyers, Michigan Democrat, earlier bucked his party leaders by calling for hearings on accusations the Association of Community Organization for Reform Now (ACORN) has committed crimes ranging from voter fraud to a mob-style “protection” racket.

“The powers that be decided against it,” Mr. Conyers told The Washington Times.

The chairman declined to elaborate, shrugging off questions about who told him how to run his committee and give the Democrat-allied group a pass.

Obama owes ACORN and if Conyers probe went to deep, it could be embarrassing for Barack Hussein Obama and his “Band of Merry Men”. Therefore, I can’t help but wonder IF Obama and Company did not exert some pressure on Conyers to kill the probe!

Maybe Obama and Company agreed to go soft on the indictment against Monica Conyers, the wife of Congressman John Conyers in the “votes for Cash” investigation she was nailed in.

I am only “asking” the questions, I am not accusing anyone; YET!

ps. it appears we should keep an eye on the Monica Conyers case and NEVER TAKE OUR EYE OFF ACORN and BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA.!

This post is taken from the blog: Mindless & Spinless that is posted by my friend and fellow Conservative WatchDog! I think it says very well what the country DOES and/or SHOULD think about the current Presidency.

“Lou Pritchett, a former vice president of Procter & Gamble. submitted the following letter to The New York Times. They did not publish it!

Dear President Obama:

You are the thirteenth President under whom I have lived and unlike any of the others, you truly scare me. …

You scare me because you have never run a company or met a payroll. …

You scare me because for over half your life you have aligned yourself with radical extremists who hate America and you refuse to publicly denounce these radicals who wish to see America fail.

You scare me because you are a cheerleader for the ‘blame America’ crowd and deliver this message abroad.

You scare me because you want to change America to a European style country where the government sector dominates instead of the private sector.

You scare me because you want to replace our health care system with a government controlled one.

You scare me because you prefer ‘wind mills’ to responsibly capitalizing on our own vast oil, coal and shale reserves. …

You scare me because you have begun to use ‘extortion’ tactics against certain banks and corporations.

You scare me because your own political party shrinks from challenging you on your wild and irresponsible spending proposals. …

You scare me because the media gives you a free pass on everything you do.

You scare me because you demonize and want to silence the Limbaughs, Hannitys, O’Reillys and Becks who offer opposing, conservative points of view.

You scare me because you prefer controlling over governing.

Finally, you scare me because if you serve a second term I will probably not feel safe in writing a similar letter in 8 years. ~~ Lou Pritchett

Chuck Norris, commenting on the letter, added a few more reasons to fear this administration:

You scare me because so many amazing corporate and American leaders, such as Lou Pritchett, are saying you scare them.

You scare me because after you initiate more government borrowing and bailouts than all presidents combined, you then require Congress to follow a system that is “pay-as-you-go.”

You scare me because you really do believe that going into massive amounts of debt can remedy our economy in the long run.

You scare me because your actions don’t reflect the federal governmental constraints and fiscally prudent principles of our Founding Fathers and Constitution.

You scare me because you repeatedly still play the blame game with the Bush administration but never blame the Clinton administration, even though it was responsible for the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac subprime fiasco via the proliferation of loans to unqualified borrowers.

You scare me because you buy and run the banking, automobile and (soon) health industries with taxpayers’ money but refuse to call it socialism.

You scare me because you claim to be a fighter for minorities and the promises of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness yet do not defend the unborn. What greater minority is there than those in the womb, against whom you already have enacted more pro-abortion laws than anyone since the Roe v. Wade decision? ~~ Chuck Norris

And Mr. President,

You scare the hell out of me because of your total disregard for the U.S. Constitution.

You scare me because your entire administration functions in secrecy.

You scare me because you usurp the powers reserved to Congress by the Constitution.

You scare me because you are wrecking long established contract laws.

You scare because everything you do is Marxist or as payback to your cronies.

You scare me because your solution to the National debt is to quadrupole it.

Most of all you scare me because you are a Marxist who is hell-bent on destroying what was handed to you as the Greatest Nation in the history of this World! ~~ Watch Dog“

Barack Hussein Obama and his MANY Statements on Iran!

This paragraph, sent to me by a friend but I know not from where, sums up Barack Hussein Obama and his multiple views of Iran:

He waffles while Iran is laughing at the U.S.;

“This is a lose/lose situation for Obama. He is as flaky on Iran as on everything else. In 2004 he favoured “surgical” missile strikes against Iran. In 2007 he did not rule out force, but preferred “aggressive diplomacy combined with tough sanctions” – but that was for the ears of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (so he could keep their support and donations coming in. now he throws them away as he did his GrandMa and Rev. Wright).”

Words in brackets are mine!

Obama Trying to put “a Ringer” on SCOTUS!

Barack Hussein Obama could have chosen any one of a number of liberals to replace Justice David Souter on the Supreme Court. He could have chosen someone who was simply left-of-center… a SIMPLE liberal… but he didn’t.

Barack Hussein Obama chose Judge Sotomayor because she’s an extreme leftist… he knows she will allow her liberal political biases to affect her decision making on the Court… because he knows she’s already disposed to “legislate” HER leftist agenda from the bench.
But more than that, Barack Hussein Obama nominated Judge Sotomayor to send a message to conservatives in the Senate, and the subtext of the message could not be clearer: I dare you to do anything to oppose or stop this nomination.
How conservatives react to Barack Hussein Obama’s nomination will set the tone for everything to come over the next four years. If Barack Hussein Obama can place Judge Sotomayor on the Supreme Court for a lifetime appointment without much resistance, he’ll get the message he can do anything.

I believe this says it all!

Obama Appoints Homosexual Activist Jennings to Education Post!

Kevin Jennings appointed to Department of Education post

Big surprise, you elect a liberal president, you get liberal cabinet secretaries who in turn appoint liberal people to their departments. I can’t say I was surprised that Education Secretary Arne Duncan appointed Kevin Jennings, founder of GLSEN and co-chair of LGB fundraising for Barack Obama to be the assistant deputy secretary of the Office of Safe and Drug-Free Schools inside the Department of Education.
Homosexual activist Kevin Jennings, director of the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) describing how immorality got a foothold in the Massachusetts schools by using “safety” as an issue.” “We immediately seized upon the opponent’s calling card — safety — and explained how homophobia represents a threats to students’ safety by creating a climate where violence, name-calling, health problems, and suicide are common. Tilting our report, ‘Making Schools Safe for Gay and Lesbian Youth,‘ we automatically threw our opponents onto the defensive and stole their best line of attack. This….short-circuited their arguments and left them back-peddling from day one.”

Figures doesn’t it? I guess this is one CHANGE that Barack Hussein Obama was talking about and the LGBT activists that heled get him elected HOPED for. More than likely it was a sure thing!

Wonder what our NEXT surprise will be!

The Ethics of Barack Hussein Obama are being Questioned!

President Barack Obama claimed his administration would set a new standard for ethics.

Little did we know he would actually lower the standard.

The National Right to Work Committee’s is moving forward in their to investigate Barack Obama’s controversial appointment of former AFL-CIO union lawyer Deborah Greenfield to a key position in the Department of Labor.

Almost immediately after winning the election in November, Obama appointed Greenfield to his transition team to oversee the change in power at the Department of Labor. But at the very same time, Greenfield was on the AFL-CIO legal team which was suing the Department of Labor to overturn union officer conflict-of-interest reporting regulations.

Early in his term, President Obama has quickly acted to gut the union boss reporting requirements intended to root out corruption. But the American people – especially American workers paying dues to the AFL-CIO – have a right to know about this potential conflict of interest, not to mention the Obama Administration’s apparent hypocrisy.

Then there is Barack Hussein Obama’s pet project – The Card Check Law!

One has to wonder if these are all payback to the Unions for their support and financial backing for his election. NO, I guess you really do not have to wonder – it is obvious that is exactly what it is.

Pravda Explains – Barack Hussein Obama is Leading the USA to Marxism!

“American capitalism gone with a whimper
27.04.2009
Source: Pravda.Ru

URL: http://english.pravda.ru/opinion/columnists/107459-american_capitalism-0
It must be said, that like the breaking of a great dam, the American decent into Marxism is happening with breath taking speed, against the back drop of a passive, hapless sheeple, excuse me dear reader, I meant people.

True, the situation has been well prepared on and off for the past century, especially the past twenty years. The initial testing grounds was conducted upon our Holy Russia and a bloody test it was. But we Russians would not just roll over and give up our freedoms and our souls, no matter how much money Wall Street poured into the fists of the Marxists.

Those lessons were taken and used to properly prepare the American populace for the surrender of their freedoms and souls, to the whims of their elites and betters.
First, the population was dumbed down through a politicized and substandard education system based on pop culture, rather then the classics. Americans know more about their favorite TV dramas then the drama in DC that directly affects their lives. They care more for their “right” to choke down a McDonalds burger or a BurgerKing burger than for their constitutional rights.

Then they turn around and lecture us about our rights and about our “democracy”. Pride blind the foolish.

Then their faith in God was destroyed, until their churches, all tens of thousands of different “branches and denominations” were for the most part little more then Sunday circuses and their televangelists and top protestant mega preachers were more then happy to sell out their souls and flocks to be on the “winning” side of one pseudo Marxist politician or another. Their flocks may complain, but when explained that they would be on the “winning” side, their flocks were ever so quick to reject Christ in hopes for earthly power. Even our Holy Orthodox churches are scandalously liberalized in America.

The final collapse has come with the election of Barack Obama. His speed in the past three months has been truly impressive. His spending and money printing has been a record setting, not just in America’s short history but in the world. If this keeps up for more then another year, and there is no sign that it will not, America at best will resemble the Wiemar Republic and at worst Zimbabwe.

These past two weeks have been the most breath taking of all. First came the announcement of a planned redesign of the American Byzantine tax system, by the very thieves who used it to bankroll their thefts, loses and swindles of hundreds of billions of dollars. These make our Russian oligarchs look little more then ordinary street thugs, in comparison. Yes, the Americans have beat our own thieves in the shear volumes. Should we congratulate them?

These men, of course, are not an elected panel but made up of appointees picked from the very financial oligarchs and their henchmen who are now gorging themselves on trillions of American dollars, in one bailout after another. They are also usurping the rights, duties and powers of the American congress (parliament). Again, congress has put up little more then a whimper to their masters.

Then came Barack Obama’s command that GM’s (General Motor) president step down from leadership of his company. That is correct, dear reader, in the land of “pure” free markets, the American president now has the power, the self given power, to fire CEOs and we can assume other employees of private companies, at will. Come hither, go dither, the centurion commands his minions.

So it should be no surprise, that the American president has followed this up with a “bold” move of declaring that he and another group of unelected, chosen stooges will now redesign the entire automotive industry and will even be the guarantee of automobile policies. I am sure that if given the chance, they would happily try and redesign it for the whole of the world, too. Prime Minister Putin, less then two months ago, warned Obama and UK’s Blair, not to follow the path to Marxism, it only leads to disaster. Apparently, even though we suffered 70 years of this Western sponsored horror show, we know nothing, as foolish, drunken Russians, so let our “wise” Anglo-Saxon fools find out the folly of their own pride.

Again, the American public has taken this with barely a whimper…but a “freeman” whimper.
So, should it be any surprise to discover that the Democratically controlled Congress of America is working on passing a new regulation that would give the American Treasury department the power to set “fair” maximum salaries, evaluate performance and control how private companies give out pay raises and bonuses? Senator Barney Franks, a social pervert basking in his homosexuality (of course, amongst the modern, enlightened American societal norm, as well as that of the general West, homosexuality is not only not a looked down upon life choice, but is often praised as a virtue) and his Marxist enlightenment, has led this effort. He stresses that this only affects companies that receive government monies, but it is retroactive and taken to a logical extreme, this would include any company or industry that has ever received a tax break or incentive.
The Russian owners of American companies and industries should look thoughtfully at this and the option of closing their facilities down and fleeing the land of the Red as fast as possible. In other words, divest while there is still value left.

The proud American will go down into his slavery with out a fight, beating his chest and proclaiming to the world, how free he really is. The world will only snicker.

Michelle Obama Whines Again on how “Alienated she Felt”!

“The disgruntled First Lady dissed her former employer during her commencement speech at Merced University on Saturday.Lynn Sweet at the Chicago Sun-Times reported on May 22, 2009:

First lady Michelle Obama for the second time has talked about how alienated she was from the University of Chicago when she was growing up on the South Side.

Mrs. Obama commented about her relationship with the U. of C. in a commencement address she delivered Saturday at the University of California, Merced — echoing remarks she made to children in March at a school here…

“I was once one of those kids. Most of you were once one of those kids,” and then told the students how she grew up just a few miles from the University of Chicago.

“Yet that university never played a meaningful role in my academic development. The institution made no effort to reach out to me — a bright and promising student in their midst — and I had no reason to believe there was a place for me there.

“Therefore, when it came time for me to apply to college, I never … considered the university in my own backyard as a viable option.”

…Ironically, the U. of C. would become a focal point of her life: She was a high-level administrator at the school and medical center; President Obama taught at the law school for many years; their daughters attended the Lab School; their close friends are on U of C boards and were major presidential campaign fund-raisers and many members of the Obama White House have ties to the institution anchoring Hyde Park.“

Oh Boy! She did get to go to Princeton however.

Incidentally, she “Was a high level administrator” who was paid in excess of $319,000.00 per year BUT that was ONLY AFTER Barack Hussein Obama BECAME A U.S. Senator! Before that she earned approximately $130,000.00 as a department head or some other meanial job!

I can’t see why she feels she was mistreated growing up or otherwise!

Obama Donor gets 30 Years in the Slammer!

Democrat fundraiser Norman Hsu was convicted Tuesday of violating campaign finance laws by making thousands of dollars of donations through straw donors in order to bypass limits on individual contributions to a candidate. Hsu also pleaded guilty to wire fraud in a Ponzi scheme he used to bilk investors out of more than $20 million. He faces 30 years in prison. Obama’s Hopefund PAC took in at least $24,000 from him and his associates from 2005 to 2007.

Obama Does RIGHT, His Supporters are Critical of His Actions!

Barack Hussein Obama finally realizes that the “transparent government” he pushed for in his campaign will not work when it come to national security and the war on terror. Last week he set up the following so there would be little if any break in the integrity of our security. Guess what, for these acts, for acting in the responsible manner his position demands, he being taken to task in the blogs, DailyLos, leftwing newspapers, liberal talk shows and by some un-named White House staff and of course Princess Pelosi and King of Nothing Important Harry Reid. How quickly they forget!

Monday – Obama administration’s letter to Britian threatening to cut off intelligence-sharing if British courts reveal the details of how we tortured British resident Binyam Mohamed;

Tuesday – Promoted to military commander in Afghanistan Gen. Stanley McChyrstal, who was deeply involved in some of the worst abuses of the Bush era;

Wednesday – Announced he was reversing himself and would try to conceal photographic evidence showing widespread detainee abuse — despite the rulings from two separate courts (four federal judges unanimously) that the law compels their disclosure;

Friday – Unveiled his plan to preserve a modified system of military commissions for trying Guantanamo detainees, rather than using our extant-judicial processes for doing so.

I applaud Barack Hussein Obama for these actions and encourage him to further open his eyes and see what the reality of his office is and put a stop to other of the nonsensical programs he has placed in action.
