Inaugural Party seeks people (Obomb--inaug tickets hawked at fire sale prices)
NY POST ^ | 1/15/13 | CINDY ADAMS

Posted on 01/16/2013 3:00:12 PM PST by Liz

Monday’s inaug is no sellout....Some DEM party officials are skipping the whole thing. DC hotels and events are offering discounts, rebates, twofers. Benefactors Brunch is a $5,000 fire sale price. VIP access to the Inaugural Ball is listed as “an amazing deal.” General admission is $500. To squat in the Parade’s VIP section---$150.....in the everybody’s-a-peasant section, it’s possible the Oval Office is so desperate, they may pay you a few dollars to fill the embarrassing void.

I checked a few hotel chains for rooms Sunday and Monday night. I did not find one single hotel sold out. NOT ONE!

The buzz is most DC hotel rooms are being snapped up by RTL'ers attending the annual March for Life.

Must be really irksome to the radically pro- abortion M/M O/.

=====================================================

In February 2004, US Senate candidate Barack Obama's wife, Michelle, sent a fund-raising letter with the "alarming news" that "right-wing politicians" had passed a law stopping doctors from performing p/b abortions (stabbing half-born babies in the neck with scissors, suctioning out their brains and crushing their skulls).

Michelle Obama considers partial-birth abortion "a legitimate medical procedure," and asked supporters for $150 to attend a luncheon for her candidate husband, b/c he would fight against "cynical ploys" to stop p/b sbortions.

(NOTE: nurses at an Illinois hospital in 1999 discovered babies were being aborted alive and placed on shelves in soiled utility rooms to die unattended.)

BACKGROUND Legislation was presented on the federal level and in various states called the Born Alive Infants Protection Act. It stated all live-born babies were guaranteed the same constitutional right to equal protection, whether or not they were wanted.

BAIPA sailed through the U.S. Senate by unanimous vote. Even Sens. Clinton, Kennedy and Kerry agreed a mother's right to "choose" stopped at her baby's delivery. The bill also passed overwhelmingly in the US House.

NARAL went neutral on it. Abortion enthusiasts publicly agreed that fighting BAIPA would appear extreme. President Bush signed BAIPA into law in 2002.

But in Illinois, the state version of BAIPA repeatedly failed, thanks in large part to then-state Sen. Barack Obama. It only passed in 2005, after Obama left. Obama articulately asserted that legislation protecting live aborted babies might infringe on women's rights or abortionists' rights.

In 2003, as chairman of the next state Senate committee to which BAIPA was sent, Obama stopped it from even getting a hearing, shelving it to die much like babies were still being shelved to die in Illinois hospitals and abortion chambers.

(NOTE As chair of that same committee, state Sen Obama once abruptly ended a hearing early, right before the parents of six children killed as a result of Illinois' drivers licenses-for-bribes scandal, were to testify in favor of Choose Life license plate legislation. Obama stalled. He later killed the bill when no one was around.)

I’ll go. My price is a brand new Bushmaster and a 1,000 rd. case of .223. Delivered to my house because I don’t want to transport it back across any People’s Republic states.

Don't worry, the press will all be "Rokering" in their pants.

General admission is $500.

They're going to have to pay a heck of a lot more than that.

This is why I dont believe he won. I saw lines in the voting place like I had never seen before, and people LOUDLY talking about how they could not wait to vote against this P.O.S. communist muslim infiltraitor (with emphaisis on traitor)

And yet local voting results show no uptick from previous years?

I wondered why that crazy woman near the front of the line put her ballot in the machine and then YANKED it out when it was halfway in- jamming the machine. Then walked out without apology or care if her vote was going to be counted or not

All of us behind her had to stick our votes in the ‘emergency bin’. which probably went straight into the dumpster. I think they figured out it is easier to delete valid republicn votes than it is to manufacture more democrat votes

“They would HAVE to pay me to attend that hog killing, and I don’t come cheap either.”
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

I have attended many hog killings and participated in several, I can’t imagine that that disaster will be anywhere close to being as interesting as a hog killing. Even so I suppose I might attend it for ten thousand dollars plus all expenses provided I could wear dark glasses and ear plugs. No less though.

The greatest thing about hog killing was mixing the sausage and cooking that first test piece.

Why do you think Dade, Broward and Palm beach counties (SFL) wait until the very last minute to submit their results?

So they know how many votes to manufacture.

Voter fraud must be factored into O's so-called "victory."

The NY Post article above stated that Dem leaders are skipping the inaug. Which raises an interesting point....what were they all doing elections day---and the weeks leading up to the election?

NOTE Sen. Charles Grassley of Iowa and six other Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee found that the Obama administration lied WRT nailing an illegal pedophole who was working in Sen Booby Menendez's office.

Ergo, Grassley and his committee should subpoena Dem leaders, and their documents, to determine what exactly they were doing on election day and the weeks before.

==========================================

REFERENCE---AP reported that the illegal immigrant who was a registered sex offender working as a volunteer intern for Sen. Bob Menendez was not arrested because of political concerns. The Homeland Security Department said the AP’s story about the delayed arrest of Peruvian immigrant, Luis Abrahan Sanchez Zavaleta, was “categorically false.”

Sen. Charles Grassley of Iowa and six other Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee asked the Obama administration for details....and found that Obama’s Homeland Security Department lied to the AP.

Documents show ICE officials in New Jersey advised that the arrest “had the possibility of garnering significant congressional and media interest” and were “advised to postpone the arrest” until officials in Washington gave approval. The documents describe a conference call between officials Washington and New Jersey to “determine a way forward, given the potential sensitivities surrounding the case.”

The senators said the documents show the delay was delayed six weeks just like the AP reported. They asked for details about the department’s review of potentially sensitive, high profile immigration cases when arrests are delayed. Menendez said that his staff was notified about the case immediately before AP’s story; he learned about the case from the AP and he knew nothing about whether or why DHS had delayed the arrest.

====================================================

REFERENCE--- Florida officials discovered huge hordes of illegals on voters rolls when it called up names from the voter rolls for jury duty. Illegals said they could not serve on juries---b/c they were not citizens.

FLORIDA EPICENTER OF ILLEGAL FRAUDS---Florida, is the epicenter of the identity theft crisis. Just three addresses in Florida filed more than 500 returns totaling more than $1 million in refunds for each address.......

Florida was also the scene of a massive subprime mtge scam---with latinos colluding to bilk millions---leaving Americans holding the bag.

In another troubling scenario, hundreds of tax refunds were deposited into the same bank account—--a red flag for investigators searching for ID thieves--filing for refunds for multiple identities. In one instance, the IRS deposited 590 refunds totaling more than $900,000 into just one account.

Ahh, yes, I sometimes forget just how great that fresh sausage from a homegrown hog really tasted. Younger Americans no longer know what pork, beef and chicken is supposed to taste like. If they had some of the real thing they would probably revolt. Even those of us who know have a hard time recalling just how much better food used to taste. No, it is not just that my taste buds are older and less sensitive, even though that is true. I can still recall the last time I got my hands on a piece of real home grown chicken and was shocked at how much better it was than the stuff in the store.
Life used to involve a lot of hard physical labor that most people now can not even imagine but if my body would stand up to it it would be worth all that work just to regain all the other things we have lost. Those who are over sixty may have some idea of what I mean.
Suffice it to say that most large cities now are what I consider hell on Earth. I honestly don’t know how people can live that way. What we tout as a greatly extended “lifespan” is beginning to look more like just taking a very long time to die.

People are spending $300,000 for a Condo Apartment in a huge building, when they could by ten acres with a house on itfor that. A nice house.

Yes you have to travel a bit to go to work, but it’s worth it.

Obama could have stolen the election—doesn’t matter. We are becoming a lawless country with a lawless alleged president.

America is finished, it is teetering towards its collapse. Obama is president of a sinking ship.
