Obama ‘Selectively’ Closed Most Popular Memorials

Vetblocked

‘Honor Flights’ of WW II Vets will be permitted to memorial.  Other Americans will be barred says Park Service.  Obama now decides which American Citizens are afforded First Amendment Rights.

As most of us knew, Obama is playing politics to intimidate opposition to his agenda and/or incite a civil war with the petulant temper tantrum shutting down open air memorials, yanking websites offline and blaming the entire fiasco on his political opposition while his sycophant stormtroopers in the media suggest Obama use the military to punish Tea Party Conservatives.

Proof of the former is found from a House Committee that cites Obama’s regime choosing the most popular memorials for targeted closure and shuttering.  This is the same old thing Obama did with his Sequester that shut down military air shows and flyovers during parades and events this past Summer.

After Tuesday and Wednesday’s storming of the Barry-Cades by angry vets into the WWII Memorial, the firestorm forced a change in tactics by the Obama regime and the Department of the Interior who now say the Memorial can stay open for vets for “First Amendment Activity”.  I guess to Obama, some 1st Amendment Rights are more equal than others.

On Wednesday, the Obama administration attempted to take the World War II memorial issue off the table by allowing monuments to reopen for groups like the Honor Flight vets.

“My understanding is that the closure order provides a process for accepting First Amendment activities on National Mall and memorial parks in D.C. and in Philadelphia,” he said.

Obama is an angry petulant man-child wielding his imperial power like a toddler having a hissy fit attempting to inflict as much pain on the American people as  possible so he can blame it on his political enemies and Breitbart has the story:

HOUSE COMMITTEE: OBAMA SELECTIVELY CLOSED MOST POPULAR TOURIST MEMORIALS

According to the House Committee on Natural Resources, the Obama administration has taken the unusual step of shutting down only the most popular tourist memorials in the nation’s capital, including the World War II Memorial, the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial, and the National Mall. Other, lesser-visited sites, have been left open. “[T]he Obama Administration is applying this policy inconsistently and choosing which memorials to block off and which to keep open. While these popular monuments remain barricaded, other U.S. Park properties such as the Constitutional Gardens and Japanese Americans Memorial remain completely open,” the Committee said in a press release.

House Natural Resources Committee Chairman Doc Hastings stated, “It appears as though only the highly visible monuments and areas are being closed to the public – further proof that the Obama Administration is only playing politics and purposely choosing to make this shut down as painful as possible. Their actions are shameful and wrong.”

Government Shut Down Blame Game

ShutDown

A last ditch effort by the GOP to keep government running but suspending ObamaCare subsidies for Congress and their staff is rejected by the Democrat MarxoFascists, prompting the Federal shut down.  

There is this truth: the cabal running Washington D.C. will rather delight in everything burning down than to surrender their taxpayer-funded perks.  For them, some animals are more equal than others.

The GOP leadership’s late offer to the Senate and Obama was a bill that funds the government through Dec. 15, but included a measure to delay the health care law’s individual mandate while getting rid of federal subsidies for the health insurance of members of Congress and their staff — an idea pushed by Louisiana Sen. David Vitter.  But Harry Reid and the Ruling Class in the Senate rejected the offer, preferring the political football they think will be easily played over the heads of their low-information welfare voting constituency.

Breitbart also has the story:

SENATE SHUT DOWN GOVERNMENT TO SAVE ITS OBAMACARE SUBSIDIES

SNIP

…In the final hours before the midnight deadline, the House ended with a simple proposal. It would agree to fund the government, if the Senate agreed to scrap the special subsidies lawmakers and staff receive to purchase health insurance. The final House proposal only effected people on Capitol Hill. Harry Reid said, effectively, we’ll shut down the government to keep our subsidies.

 The Senate, however, rejected both provisions. Had it opted to eliminate its own special subsidies, the government would be open today. Preserving its own platinum health insurance coverage drove the Senate to close the government. But the Praetorian Media will never report this truth.  Instead they will parrot Obama’s blame game on ‘extremist Republicans’ ‘holding the country hostage’.

Every Senate Democrat Voted In Favor Of Exempting Themselves From ObamaCare

One of the most profoundly unfair provisions of Obamacare is that members of Congress and their staffers were unilaterally and illegally granted a special exemption from the law they themselves passed. Unlike many Americans, many of whom have been forcibly kicked off their current health care plans, the governing class and their staffers as of now will keep their insurance providers and receive an enormous taxpayer subsidy (depending on which plan they choose) to off-set rising health care costs. Sound fair? I didn’t think so. As it happened, many congressional staffers threatened to resign if they were forced to enroll in the Obamacare exchanges and comply with the mandate — even though many of them helped draft (and ultimately pass) the legislation.

….Democrats voted in lock-step with their party to buck the House of Representative’s duly passed spending bill on several occasions. Not only did they reject a continuing resolution that would end this unjust and unfair Obamacare waiver — a de facto endorsement of special privileges and protections for members of Congress — they voted against the provision to delay the law’s controversial mandate requirement to purchase health insurance.

That said, what is happening IS NOT a government shut down.  It is a political ploy to add maximum pain upon the American people and inflict misery and punishment for the purpose of attempting to turn popular opinion against Conservatives.   Obama’s existing scheme of Sequester and this shut down is just another tool in the hand of the MarxoFascists to hurt the American people.

If we are going to have a REAL government shut-down – then We The People should send Congress, the Courts and Obama HOME WITHOUT PAY – WITHOUT PERKS – WITHOUT PENSION.  Let THEM apply for unemployment like the little people they inflict their misery upon.  While we are at it, kill the Alphabets – shut down the IRS, the NSA, DHS and the EPA.  Worthless money-sucking agents of tyranny that need to be abolished anyway.

Obama Grounds 2/3 Of Combat-Ready Air Force Due “Sequester”; Hosts Lavish Concert At White House on Taxpayer Dime

Obama Parties on our dime

North Korea and China prepare to go Nuclear with allies in Tehran, Obama shuts down combat ready air wings but parties and sings with Justin Timberlake at lavish concert party at White House – all on taxpayer dime.

Our enemies in the world have to be laughing their arses off at the USA for putting up with this in-our-face clown for president.  While North Korea is sending signals of war – NUCLEAR WAR at that (with China massing troops to bolster their Communist ally), Obama play politics and makes good on his plan to ‘make sequester as painful as possible’, by GROUNDING nearly 2/3 of America’s air combat wings.  Of importance to note is that this ‘Sequester’ of Obama’s is NOT about cutting any federal spending, but rather a reduction in the RATE INCREASE slotted for the future.

So while the world prepares for war and Obama gives millions of dollars of military hardware to the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt while working to arm Al Qaeda in Syria, His Heinous effectively shuts down our air defense capability.  Then to rub salt in the wound he gives American taxpayers the finger while tossing a lavish ‘Blues Concert’ at the White House for himself and family – all on your dime.  While the media masturbates to their fist king, Hollywierd worships their messiah, while the world is getting ready to burn.

TimberlakeObama

Singing with Justin Timberlake apparently scores higher in the minds of Obama’s imbecillic drones than protecting the country while the world readies for yet another global conflict – to the gross and willful ignorance of The Won, and his army of MarxoFascists working to gut the country  and render it into oblivion.

 

No dimes for combat air wings, but plenty of dimes to entertain America’s first emperor.

Caligula won’t be able to hold a candle to Obama the way this is going.

Obamacare To Pay Union Workers and Community Activists $20 To $48 An Hour

SEIU-ObamaCare

Tens of thousands of health care union workers and community activists hired  as “navigators” to help Americans choose Obamacare options starting Oct. 1

Amidst the push to make Obama’s Sequester ‘ as painful as promised’, we learn that the Regime has hired tens of thousands of Obama Activists to fill positions as ‘Navigators’ to steer Americans into Obamacare.

While lines at airports and cruise terminals grow into nightmare waits due to ‘sequester budget cuts’ of TSA staff doing security checks; control tower closings – the American taxpayer paid for 2 lavish Spring Break vacations for Obama’s two kids to go to the Bahamas with a bunch of their friends and an attachment army of Secret Service – and now we find that we taxpayers are going to pay a $48 an hour wage to Union members and community activists to ‘assist’ Americans through the maze of ObamaCare along with free translators to be provided on our dime as well.

You see, under the MarxoFascist rule of the Obama’s – we little people get punished, while they live large and kingly off the money they have taken by force from our paychecks.  Now they seek to rob us of more money and pay lavish salaries for Obama’s Union, street agitator cronies.

Obamacare to pay ‘navigators’ $20 to $48 an hour, provide free translators

Tens of thousands of health care professionals, union workers and community activists hired as “navigators” to help Americans choose Obamacare options starting Oct. 1 will be paid up to $48 an hour, more than six times the federal minimum wage of $7.25, according to new regulations issued Wednesday.

The 63-page rule covering navigators, drawn up by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, also said the government will provide free translators for those not fluent in English — no matter what their native language is.

“The proposed requirements would also include that such entities and individuals provide consumers with information and assistance in the consumer’s preferred language, at no cost to the consumer, which would include oral interpretation of non-English languages and the translation of written documents in non-English languages when necessary to ensure meaningful access,” said the regulations.

The rules also addressed conflict of interest and other potential issues that navigators could face as the public’s first stop on the Obamacare trail.

It is still not clear how many navigators will be required. California, however, provides a hint. It wants 21,000.

That could be an expensive proposition, since every one of them must be paid a minimum of $20 an hour. According to the new regulations, navigators and assistants will earn $20 an hour, while navigator project leaders will earn $29 an hour. Navigator senior executives will be paid $48 an hour.

The rules allow navigators to come from the ranks of unions, health providers and community action groups such as ACORN and Planned Parenthood. They are required to provide unbiased advice.

Some in Congress are already wary of the navigators. Louisiana Republican Rep. Charles Boustany Jr., chairman of the House Ways and Means Oversight subcommittee, has raised questions about a voter registration provision in the Obamacare application Americans will have to fill out to receive health care, and whether Democratic-leaning activists will influence which party people choose to join.

Obama Demonizes Opposition, Blames Them For What He Set In Motion

ODuce'sRant

A horror of pain and conflict is deliberately being set in motion, and Obama is stoking his mobs to blame Conservatives/Wealthy and White as the cause.

Socialist megalomaniacal despots historically blame targeted groups of people they want exterminated with the misery and angst a people suffer at the very hands of those ruling them.  Obama is  no different in this regard.  His tirade in front of the press yesterday after his intimate golf vacation with Tiger Woods and Reggie Love, was chock full of a madman throwing a tirade who is ingeniously setting up his political enemies to be blamed for the woe and suffering he, himself is initiating.

Like Castro or Chavez, His Heinous takes the podium full of anger and ginned up rage against the Republicans with a prop of cops and emergency personnel as a backdrop and rants against a sequester HE HIMSELF CREATED.  He goes on a tear for over ten minutes and makes outrageous fear-mongering statements and walks off the podium abruptly without so much as allowing the press to ask a single question about his assertions.  Not that they would of course – you can hear them clapping like trained seals at the end of his Mussolini-esque moment.  Diktator Obama, His Heinous in full rulership mode.

With all the poking, prodding and incitement of Americans by this regime upon gun owners to business owners – the open talk is that a conflagration is coming, and soon.  The American Thinker posts an essay wondering aloud whether the forces Obama has unleashed with his actions, he will be able to handle.

I disagree with the premise of Mr. Snyder’s statement that Obama cannot handle what he is setting in motion.

On the contrary.  Marxist revolutionaries destroy existing civilizations and build their totalitarian utopias on the ash heaps of their carcasses and over the bodies of their own people whom are ideological enemies that they exterminate.

I do not eqate blunders or missteps with this regime in power, rather they are the fruits of an agenda-pushing narcissist with visions of genocide and ruin dancing in his head.  Community Organizers (agitators as we knew them in Chicago) often would stoke the mob into action that went beyond their control.  They are masters of setting off explosive conflagrations that get out of control – so that in the fury and firestorm that ensues – reasonable people will settle for terms for a promise from those who set the fire to end the upheaval and bring things back to normal.  It is a  tactic to engender unconditional surrender and capitulation.

The perfect storm that is brewing is being fueled with malice and deliberation.  The desire is for it to consume all and everything – because Obama’s goals are to bring the nation to complete ash and destruction.  I doubt there are any plans he has past that goal, except a possibility of creating a Marxist utopia over the grave of what was once the greatest nation on earth.

President Obama has set in motion forces that he can’t handle

Barack Obama is a terrible president. That’s obvious to everyone who isn’t chronically ignorant or incurably liberal.  By “liberal” I don’t mean the classic definition of the word which has to do with being open-minded and objective. I mean the modern version of liberal: self-centered, emotional, illogical, and void of reason. Unfortunately, in 2012 ignoramuses and liberals represented the majority of those who voted. I’m not worried about offending them with my harsh words. My very existence offends them, and so does yours if you don’t buy into their worldview.

From economic policy to energy policy to environmental policy to foreign affairs to national security to border security to you name it, the president failed the test, but we re-elected him anyway. Obama’s misadventures in the Oval Office are becoming the stuff of legend. Benghazi and Fast and Furious are two of his more high profile blunders, but they aren’t the only ones. If George W. Bush had committed just one of those offenses, the mainstream media would have demanded his head on a platter, but they gave Obama a free pass. The nation as a whole became complicit in the president’s shenanigans because we didn’t demand that he be held accountable.

President Obama has done one thing superbly well: he has demonstrated skill par excellence on a national scale as a community organizer. He is second to none when it comes to inciting, agitating, race baiting, stoking fears, and motivating the masses. If you discount voter fraud, more than anything else, those skills got him re-elected. But like a snowball gathering momentum as it rolls down a hill, the forces that he has unleashed will be impossible to stop without pain and suffering.

For example, Occupy Wall Street’s demands for social justice dovetailed perfectly with the president’s fairness campaign. Was that coincidence or was it by design?  The answer should be obvious, but whatever the case may be, the OWS crowd eventually ran amuck in cities across the fruited plain until government officials finally took action to shut them down.

That’s the way it is with unruly mobs. Once agitators get them started, you never know what will happen. But we do know this: President Obama is their champion, and they are still among us waiting in the wings for another opportunity to vent their frustrations. Will the next version of OWS be more malevolent than the first? Only time will tell, but I wouldn’t rule it out.

OWS types aren’t alone. In the United States today, large and growing numbers of people believe that their mere existence is their contribution to society. They think that those of us who have worked hard all of our lives owe them a living, and not just a living, but a very good living.  The takers among us are easy pickings for a man with exceptional community organizing skills, and as I said, the forces that the president has unleashed will prove to be impossible to control.  If they explode, there will be hell to pay.

Common sense is totally absent in their world. For instance, who would dare to suggest that the 1% who paid almost 40% of federal income taxes in 2010 should pay more because it’s “fair” even though about 50% of our fellow citizens paid no federal income tax?  The answer: Barack Obama and his merry band of malcontents. If George Orwell were alive today, he would be scratching his head and thinking about a mind-bending plot for another novel.

Takers have no misgivings about attaching themselves permanently to the government tit, and they feel no guilt or shame as they scream for more. Obama knows them and their predilections all too well, and he takes advantage of every opportunity to stoke the fires that burn within them.  The president’s mother and his grandparents should have taught him the basics — things like if you play with matches, you will get burned — because the fire that he’s igniting can easily turn into an inferno.  If it does, all of us will pay a very high price.

In due course, simple mathematics will dictate that we can’t afford to keep able bodied men and women on the dole. Our current debt and deficit situation is so dire that something has got to give.  Judging by a recent Gallup poll, most Americans agree with me, but metaphorically speaking, it may take a swift kick in a sensitive area to wake up our elected officials in Washington. Be that as it may, the day is rapidly approaching when no one can ignore our fiscal quagmire because the combination of Medicare, Social Security, and defense spending plus interest on the debt and paying freeloaders threatens to sink this nation.

Reneging on our national debt is out of the question since global pandemonium would ensue.  Obamacare may help to reduce healthcare costs, but when evidence mounts that those “death panels” that we have heard so much about are real and that we are saving money by medicating patients and allowing them to pass away peacefully rather than treating their maladies, people will be hopping mad. Many of them will take to the streets to vent their anger.  If you think that it can’t happen here, you haven’t been paying attention.

Social Security is a special breed of cat because it involves seniors, a powerful voting block, and it is regarded as a national promise that we must not break. Besides, people actually paid in to Social Security as did their employers so it’s an annuity — and not a very good one at that.  Any politician who thinks that he can safely tamper with Social Security isn’t playing with a full deck of cards. Even so, we can’t solve our debt and deficit problems unless we make adjustments in Social Security and Medicare. It’s the quintessential Catch 22.

Similarly, we need to cut defense spending without jeopardizing our national security, but defense reductions translate into job cuts and that creates another set of problems. No matter what we do, people will not be happy with the outcome, and many of them will vent their frustration in the voting booth and possibly on the streets.

This is the point: a perfect storm is brewing. I think we’re heading for a chaotic and violent period in this country the likes of which no one alive today has ever witnessed.  If I’m right, conditions will be ideal for criminals to ply their craft, and President Obama is pushing for gun control at precisely the wrong moment.

I believe that what I have described is realistic and unfortunately inevitable, and that brings me back to my back to the president.  He has set in motion forces that he can’t handle, and all of us are going to suffer the consequences so get ready for a wild ride.
