Informing Americans Who Love Freedom
WASHINGTON— Vice President Joe Biden is praising U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice and her authoritative role in the Obama administration.
Biden says Rice has, in his words, “the absolute, total, complete confidence of the president.” He says that when Rice speaks about foreign policy, nobody doubts that she’s speaking for President Barack Obama.

The social security number (042-68-4425) bearing the name “Barack Obama” has failed the United States’ Social Security Number verification check. “I was outraged; nobody vetted this man,” said Seattle housewife Linda Jordon, who filed a self-check investigation listing herself as Obama’s employer (as a U.S. taxpayer). Jordon exposed the absurdity of a man who has access to the code for America’s nuclear football but couldn’t get clearance to pick tomatoes because his social security number has been flagged and kicked back! For her diligent efforts as a concerned American citizen, Jordon is being slammed with over $13,000 in fees and court costs because a judge deemed her investigation of the anomalies surrounding Obama’s social security number “frivolous.” ”I’m a mom, wife, homemaker,” says Jordon, who compared the 1 1/2 year vetting process her son had to go through to become a deputy sheriff with the lack of investigation into Obama’s history and documents. “Something is very wrong here.”
Three red boxes surrounded the SSN number claimed by Obama. One red box states: “The SSA record does not verify, other reason, SSA found a discrepancy in the record.” A second red box says: “Obama, Barack H. 08/17/2011-Date of Mismatch.” The third red flag says, “042-68-4425, Employee’s SSN, Case Verification # 2011229111431GY.” The form letter sent to Obama, flagging his number, is posted online along with the mismatch information.
Mrs. Jordon went deeper and researched the Social Security publication known as the POMS book. She learned that the designations given this SSN “are reserved for very few recipients and involve possible fraud.” Jordon began looking into the Obama document forgeries when she heard him say that his kids played with those of domestic terrorist Bill Ayers. “Bill Ayers’ kids were 23 years older than Obama’s kids. . .(Ayers) must have had (them) when he was 60, ” she said. Radio talk host Rick Wiles of www.TrueNews.com points out in their audio interview that Obama said his father got his education because of the GI Bill. However, “his father never (was) in the Military.”
A picture of Barack SOETORO on a Columbia University “Foreign Student” identity card is posted at the end of a very long thread about the BC fraud. Many have posted links to questions surrounding the Obama Selective Service card which Cold Case Posse lead investigator Mike Zullo has described as “poorly forged!”

Seventy-five months into his perpetual campaign to transform America into something else, Barack Obama is still talking about all that’s wrong with the country he’s spent almost $2 billion of other people’s money to lead.
You might think by now the unhappy warrior would be capable of touting some progress in his annual string of commencement addresses to inattentive audiences sitting in hot sun.
But, No. Obama feels forced to talk about how things are decaying, and not just those rusting bridges. How politically dysfunctional and divided is the capitol city he vowed to fix way back what now seems an eternity ago. How the country really needs to be so much better to live up to his expectations.
Obama’s telepromptered rhetoric is still steeped in the combative, corrective, community organizer language of radically changing the nation that he didn’t grow up in and that scores of millions of citizens are really pretty happy with, even as they acknowledge collective national faults to work on as generations have before.
“People who love their country can change it for the better,” the president informed a partially-filled stadium of Ohio State enthusiasts on Sunday. They thought they’d come to celebrate what they or a loved one had just accomplished in academe.

The new round of Benghazi hearings are starting to look positively explosive. One way you can tell is that the mainstream media feels compelled to pay attention to them. That’s a lot easier now that Obama has been re-elected, of course, and his palace guard can take off their blindfolds and earmuffs, but the sea change in media attitude over the past week has been notable.
Here, for example, is CBS News on Sunday giving top-story coverage to the testimony of Gregory Hicks, who was the Number Two man at the U.S. embassy in Libya at the time of the Benghazi attacks. Hicks – whose appearance at the hearings was discussed by House Oversight chairman Darrell Issa earlier Sunday on CBS’ Face the Nation – says everyone at the embassy knew it was an organized terror attack immediately, and they were flabbergasted to see the Obama Administration try to pass it off as a “spontaneous protest” over a YouTube video. He’s also one of the whistleblowers who claims to have been threatened with career reprisals by the Administration.
Hicks also says the White House was lying when it claimed to be in close contact with the diplomatic team in Libya during the attack, which once again raises the question of exactly what Barack Obama was doing that night. (I think we all know the answer – getting ready for a fundraiser – but the Palace Guard media didn’t want voters dwelling on that before the election.)
Another stick of dynamite testimony at these hearings will come from a high-ranking State Department counter-terrorism official, who points the finger squarely at Hillary Clinton for politicizing intelligence about the terror attack – a breathtaking contradiction of the Administration narrative about anonymous rogue numbskulls in the intelligence community inventing the phony “spontaneous video protest” narrative and making fools of the White House. Fox News reports:
On the night of Sept. 11, as the Obama administration scrambled to respond to the Benghazi terror attacks, then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and a key aide effectively tried to cut the department’s own counterterrorism bureau out of the chain of reporting and decision-making, according to a “whistle-blower” witness from that bureau who will soon testify to the charge before Congress, Fox News has learned.

They attend schools whose faculties hate and fear the free market. They couldn’t wait to run to the polls to vote for “Brother Barack.” Once he was elected all of their troubles would be over and they could join him and his Party in rubbing the “oppressive” White majority’s face in the dirt; or so the students at America’s “historical Black colleges” thought.
Like virtually every other group that joined Barack Obama’s coalition and worked to get him elected, students at America’s Black colleges – which sport some of the worst graduation rates in the country – have been screwed by their Messiah.
Because the new system of doling out college loans is built on actual credit checks for locatable parents, many Black students are learning economics lessons without ever setting foot in a classroom.
The loans that have been most difficult for Obama’s fans are federal student loans from a program called PLUS. The problem for Obama’s fans is that PLUS loans demand proving you have a financial history of actually paying back past loans and don’t have your picture on the wall at your local collection agency.
It really doesn’t matter to Obama and his administration that the students being denied PLUS loans worked their hearts out for Obama’s elections. That was yesterday.
The National Association for Equal Opportunity in Higher Education, an organization that works for Black college students, says that in just the first year of these news regulations 15,000 denial letters went out and only about 15% of these decisions were successfully appealed. In only the first two months of this year almost double that number have been turned down.
Cold reality can be especially cruel when it unexpectedly visits those who have spent a lifetime looking to government for everything. Being asked to meet standard requirements, when such things have always applied to someone else, is a lesson about being careful for whom you vote that the facilities at these schools don’t understand, let alone ever want to teach. Not to worry though, the free market they all so deeply hate and fear has taken care of that. Lesson taught; lesson learned.

The almost bone jarring contrast of Obama’s speech at Planned Parenthood freezes every normal sense of credulity in unbelief. The story of one baby born alive in the Pennsylvanias’ Gosnell horror mill is that the child was swimming in a toilet trying to get out. It was pulled from the toilet only to have its spinal cord snipped while the mother was still in the room.
Yes, Mr. Obama – give us the 50s – any day.
The main stream media reported that Obama delayed his now famous (or infamous) speech at Planned Parenthood so he could visit and console the families of those who lost loved ones in the West, Texas fertilizer plant explosion.
It seemed for a moment that the president had a heart and perhaps he could put some priorities in order. That is called PR or in a far more honest vein it is pure propaganda.
After hearing of the horrors and murders in Pennsylvania under Dr. Gosnell we may be better served to see the president skip both visits and instead visit the Gosnell clinic for a pause and a prayer – if the ghosts of those murdered there would allow it.
Had he visited the clinic on the day the baby was swimming in the toilet, would he have pulled it out and demanded its life be preserved? Would he in a moment of honest conscience stood with the helpless?
Mr. Obama has already answered that question. In the speech made at Planned Parenthood he clearly stated where he would stand. He said “You’ve also got a president who’s going to be right there with you, fighting every step of the way.” Fox News April 26, 2013
Mr. Obama sees himself as leading the nation into the 21st century and justifies his abortion stand as protecting women’s health. We can only wonder if he skipped every biology class ever offered in high school and college. Being pregnant is not a health problem and living perfectly viable unborn human beings; in or out of the mother’s womb, don’t have any health problems, unless the will to live is now considered unhealthy.
Yes, we’ll take the 50s any day, when pregnancy was not a health problem and no president would be found fighting for the freedom to kill the unborn.
Much about the 50s was all that was ever right with America. Women didn’t think they were in a war with conservatives, but knew they were only in a war with over eager young men, who usually lost which in turn produced a situation where there was no need for an abortion. Yeah, we’ll take those days.
We will also take the 50s presidents who left a legacy for us rather than a stream of blood from our own offspring.
President Truman who took up after Franklin Roosevelt from 1950 to 1952 faced and reigned in the reckless power of the corrupt unions instead of coddling them to buy votes as Barack Obama has done. He also gave us the Truman Doctrine which served to halt the expansion of communism in Eastern Europe. Mr. Obama has brought more communistic socialism into a once free nation than any president in history.
From 1953 to 1961 we were graced with one of the best presidents in our history. Eisenhower knew the strategies and planning it would take to win the greatest war in history. Mr. Obama doesn’t understand the war on terror and can’t discern between an act of terrorism and ‘work place violence’ as the Fort Hood massacre resplendently illustrates.
Obama has given us failed green projects like Solyndra and bailouts while Eisenhower built the nations highway system, being used to this day.
Americans have rated Eisenhower among the top ten presidents of all time. Only liberals would dare to put Mr. Obama anywhere on the ratings scale.
Don’t make light of the 50s, but hang your head in shame for even suggesting that those days of yore can be legitimately compared to anything you have accomplished in almost five years in office.
The 50s is when the phrase from our Declaration of Independence actually had some meaning, namely “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness”
Everything this administration has pursued ends in death and little or no happiness for anyone in this nation, let’s see.
Taxing the rich – death of free enterprise
Running guns to Mexico – death for border patrolmen
Dropping bombs from drones – death of non-combatant people including Americans Ignoring cries for help for embassies under attack – death for our ambassador and several brave U.S. Servicemen
The fight to abort perfectly healthy unborn children – death on a grand scale, 60 million and still counting!
Obamacare – death or at least the suggestion of it in assisted suicide counseling
Fighting the Canadian pipeline – death to ending our dependence on foreign oil from flighty nations and some of our worst enemies
Reckless spending – death to the fiscal wellbeing of the future generation and any hope of financial recovery.
Promotion of the gay agenda and same sex marriage – death to all morality, and the oldest God given convention since the beginning of time.
Yes, Mr. President the 50s looks pretty good standing next to you.

One of the most seductive parts of President Barack Obama’s political message (and the message of progressive Democrats in general) is sympathy for the poor and a willingness to talk about the disparities of capitalism — about the rich being too rich and the poor being screwed. In some ways, it’s the predominant message of the Obama era.
And though it’s reasonable to contend that Republicans need to display more compassion — if for nothing else than their own political survival — isn’t it also reasonable to take stock of how things have gone for the poor under four-plus years of progressive rule?
Now, if you’re heavily invested in the market, life is peachy. A confounding fact, no doubt, when one considers that nearly every economic indicator known to mankind has been pretty abysmal of late. We are experiencing high unemployment, a shrinking labor force, stagnant gross domestic product growth and rickety consumer confidence. A disconnected market, though, has been on a historic boom. So if we need any more proof that life really isn’t fair, think about this: The rich have the Federal Reserve, and you have Harry Reid.
What does it mean in substance? According to a new Pew Research Center analysis of Census Bureau data, thanks to a robust stock and bond market, coupled with a lousy housing market, the recovery has meant that households with a net worth in the upper 7 percent have seen their net worth rise, on average, by nearly 30 percent in the years after the recession and that everyone else’s net worth has dropped by an average of 4 percent.
The economic gap between whites and minorities is even worse. According to the Urban Institute, whites, on average, have two times the income of blacks and Hispanics and six times the wealth, and that gap is accelerating.

Thanks in part to the mainstream media, more Americans seem to be open to big government today than ever before. But do they really understand where it could lead? Apparently, we haven’t learned from the historic, epic failures of socialism throughout the world. Have the promoters of these policies ever been asked by the media to provide examples of one successful program they have presided over?
Are American citizens aware of what will happen if we allow government to have even more control of our lives? The election of Barack Obama is the most glaring step toward socialism in United States history. But are there really more socialists among us today, or are we being duped by an extremely progressive media? Maybe a little of both.
The following is an excerpt from the chapter ‘It Could Never Happen In America’ taken from the book, ERADICATE: BLOTTING OUT GOD IN AMERICA.
Shortly after President Obama was inaugurated in 2009, Newsweek ran a cover story for its February 16 issue declaring: “We Are All Socialists Now: The Perils and Promise of the New Era of Big Government.” The economic crisis was caused by too much government regulation, borrowing and spending, yet Newsweek claimed, “In the absence of a robust private sector, the government will fill in the gap.” The publication inferred that with the election of Barack Obama, America was becoming more like a European socialist country. I recently learned the writer of that article was Evan Thomas.
Thomas teaches journalism at Princeton University. He is also the grandson of Marxist Norman Thomas who joined the Socialist Party in America in 1918 and ran for president six times on the Socialist Party ticket! Norman Thomas once said:
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism, but under the name of liberalism they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program until one day America will be a socialist nation without ever knowing how it happened.”
And you wonder why kids going into journalism end up with hostile views of Christians and friendly views toward liberalism? In addition, on June 5, 2009, while being interviewed by Mr. “Thrill up my leg” on Hardball with Chris Matthews, Evan Thomas stated:
“I mean, in a way, Obama’s standing above the country, above – above the world, he’s sort of god.”
Prior to Newsweek, Thomas also worked at Time Magazine. You can see his continued influence at Time as the 2011 Person of the Year cover story was – “The (Occupy) Protestor” with the socialist clenched fist representing the movement.( Naturally, in 2008, Barack Obama was declared Time’s Person of the Year.)
Many conservative Americans stopped considering Time a legitimate magazine years ago. These and many other publications have sanitized socialism. The lengthy, eight-page cover story praised the European revolutions, focused on Occupy Wall Street, and dedicated just two descriptive sentences to the Tea Party calling it a “radical populist movement.”
Time’s cover story on Obama after just six months in office read, “Obama’s start has been the most impressive of any president since FDR.” Remember their cover story on Bush in the first 100 days of his presidency? There wasn’t one. In 2003, however, Newsweek did do a cover story called: “Bush & God – Why His ‘God Talk’ Worries Friends & Foes.” The nine-page article dissected Bush’s upbringing and ”questionable” Christian influences.
In October 2011, New York magazine published the results of a poll it had conducted with 100 committed OWS protesters in Manhattan, half of whom were in their twenties. Forty-five percent of respondents said capitalism “can’t be saved” and is “inherently immoral.”
In a different 2011 survey of OWS protesters by The Wall Street Journal, 65% said government has a moral responsibility to guarantee all citizens access to affordable health care, a college education, and a secure retirement – regardless of the cost. (Where to they get these ideas?)
It is imperative you and I recognize the enemy has been working through people willing to forge his devious plan in America. We must alert others to the wickedness because the time to sound the alarm is almost past. Thomas Jefferson’s timeless words should inspire us today:
“Educate and inform the whole mass of the people. Enable them to see that it is their interest to preserve peace and order, and they will preserve them. And it requires no very high degree of education to convince them of this. They are the only sure reliance for the preservation of our liberty.”
What an honor and privilege that God has chosen you and me to be alive during this trying and exciting time in America. We are not here to be spectators. We were born during this generation to be a voice and an influence on others in order to draw people to Jesus Christ, and to counteract what is happening in America.
Do not allow today’s news or the agenda of the Left to cause you to lose your focus or your effectiveness for the Lord. This is all temporary. He is eternal. We are here for such a time as this and God has chosen us. Don’t give up and don’t get tired of doing what is good because we will reap a harvest in due time (Galatians 6:9-10).
Rally, stir up and strengthen fellow Christians. Regardless of the condition of culture and what is happening in America, we are responsible for using our time wisely while we’re here. Enemy forces want to blot out God and our freedoms, but He has entrusted this generation with His commission and to infiltrate society for Christ.
“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected and handed on for them to do the same.” – Ronald Reagan

Obama’s In Texas To Talk Jobs? He Should Try Listening
In February, I invited Barack Obama to come to Texas to learn to create jobs.
Four months later, and under intense pressure to make it look like he cares about the unemployed, he’s coming to Austin for “an event on the economy.”
Instead of talking, he should come and listen.
He inherited an unemployment rate of 7.3 percent. After four years and a Congress that gave him everything he demanded in a $1.2 trillion “stimulus” bill, the only thing that grew was human suffering.
Under Obama, the percentage of the adult population with a job or looking for one has dropped to record levels. The “civilian labor force participation rate” is at an abysmally low 63.3 percent, the lowest since 1979 and Jimmy Carter.
Additionally, 9.5 million working-age Americans have given up on finding a job under Obama. Combined, they would make the nation’s 11th largest state.
Job creation is nearly dead under Obama and nowhere near what we need to recover. Americans are giving up looking for work under Obama in numbers unseen since Carter. Black and Hispanic unemployment have grown to epidemic levels under this president.
The widespread suffering makes Obama’s decision to disband his Jobs Council earlier this year even more insulting. Obama wants us to accept unemployment and poverty as the new normal. Under Obama, our only reliable export is failure.
People are suffering because of Obama sinking deeper into his personal agenda of high taxes and attacks on job creators rather than creating a rising tide of prosperity.
Obama’s stubborn policy of raising taxes on job creators and issuing wasteful regulations means the private sector isn’t growing fast enough to restore our economy. We can’t afford four more years of Obama’s failed liberalism. He needs to turn off his teleprompter that’s already pre-programmed with the same old failed agenda of tax hikes and more giveaways to his political donors.
If Obama wants to learn how to create jobs, he should stop talking and instead listen to Texans.
Texas also inherited an economy from George W. Bush. Unlike Obama’s economy, ours is booming. Spending cuts, small government, and light regulations are the fuel that has the Texas economy roaring.
Texas did it by cutting taxes, while Obama grounded America’s economy to a halt by raising taxes.
Texas fueled jobs by expanding our oil and gas industry, while Obama has siphoned off jobs by slashing oil and gas production on federal lands and aggressively attacking private development with regulations.
Liberals love to blame slower growth in government spending for low job numbers, but Texas cut spending by $11 billion and job growth exploded. Government spending is a barrier to prosperity.
While Obama is burying the United States in massive deficits, Texas is sitting atop an $8 billion budget surplus. Not only is a Texas not running a deficit; unlike Obama’s government, we can pay off our debts.
Texas has a healthy, booming economy because we saw what Obama was doing and did the opposite. While Obama is giving up on job creation, Texas is busy trying to fill jobs.
If Obama really cares about the millions suffering under his economy, he’ll drop the canned speech filled with the same failed liberalism. Obama needs to adopt the Texas model of low taxes, smart regulations, and a booming oil and gas industry.
“Texas has yet to learn submission to any oppression, come from what source it may.”– General Sam Houston, First President of the Republic of Texas
