”The best way to fight evil is to laugh at it.” --Mel Brooks

You might think that Barack Obama woke up on the conservative side of the bed. He started ranting and raving about how uncontrollable migration is a national security threat to our country. That’s great, but before we congratulate him on his reasonable change of rhetoric, there is just one catch. He wasn’t talking about migration to our country! From The Daily Caller: “What happens in Europe is going to have an impact in the United States,” Obama said. “We consider it a major national security issue that you have uncontrolled migration into Europe. Not because these folks are coming into...

In his fight to help millions of immigrants living in the country illegally, President Obama’s most implacable enemy may not be House Republicans or conservative governors, but the ticking clock. A lengthy battle in a Texas court case could prove fatal for his plans to provide a temporary haven for up to 5 million people in the U.S. illegally. If the legal fight continues into next year, it will be difficult if not impossible for officials to process millions of applications before Obama leaves office. The more people it can shield from the threat of deportation, the administration theorizes, the...

Obama lied through his Muslim teeth when he claimed that he wouldn’t meet with Netanyahu because it was too close to their election and he refused to get involved. The truth is that as a Muslim he is dedicated to the destruction of Israel and Netanyahu, by defending Israel’s right to exist is roadblock to Obama’s plan. Don’t believe me? Since he’s been president, he helped the Muslim Brotherhood take over Egypt and has stuck by them and rejected the overwhelming number of Egyptians to do it. Obama invaded Libya and supplied Al Qaeda with half a billion in weapons...

A Gallup poll reported this week that only 23 percent of Americans surveyed each month “were satisfied with the way things are going in the U.S.” -snip- The government throws many numbers into the GDP basket — things like federal, state and local government spending, exports and various investment expenditures. The sharply higher GDP number was largely the result of faster consumption — 3.2 percent versus 2.2 percent — despite flat or falling incomes. That’s why Paul Dales of Capital Economics warns that even though the GDP number looks rosy, it suggests that households have had to dip into their...

Since yesterday afternoon a bunch of good Republicans who’ve decided to put their faith in the man who banned the incandescent light bulb, have been telling me how wrong I am for thinking the Upton Plan is a trap. Folks, it is a trap. You may not think it is a trap, but the Democrats are going to use it to turn the tables on the GOP Certainly Upton and House Republican Leaders do not think it is a trap, but it is one the Democrats have flipped skillfully on the GOP. First, understand that Upton is messaging legislation. It...

(Reuters) - If immigration reform sputters in the deeply divided U.S. Congress, supporters are planning to push President Barack Obama to act on his own to help 11 million illegal residents, lawmakers and immigration advocates said. Immigration law experts, some senators and House Democratic aides speculated that if Congress cannot agree on a wide-ranging immigration bill this year, Obama could use his executive authority to stop deporting parents of children living in the United States illegally. Many of those children have won temporary reprieves on deportation and broadening the protection to their parents would be a way of keeping immigrant...

(CNSNews.com) - The gun control policies of the post-Gaddafi government in Libya delayed the arming of bodyguards for U.S. diplomats in that country and left the local guard force hired to watch over the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi unarmed, according to internal State Department memos and written testimony by the State Department officer who was in charge of the department’s security in Libya until six weeks before the Sept. 11, 2012 terrorist attacks. “Our long term security plan in Libya was to recruit and deploy an armed, locally hired Libyan bodyguard unit,” State Department Regional Security Officer Eric Nordstrom...

We've come a long way from 2008 when President Obama, about to embark on his first run for the Oval office, vigorously advocated for a "robust system of public financing for elections". Now the Washington Examiner is reporting that several national media outlets are preparing to run a blockbuster story detailing Obama's potentially criminal campaign fundraising practices. Also, the Obama campaign has apparently been working hard behind the scenes to ensure the story never sees the light of day. Sources report that a taxpayer watchdog group has recently concluded a nine month investigation into both presidential and congressional campaign fundraising...

Dick Durbin, senator of the corrupt state of Illinois, who helped Barack Hussein Obama become president, (please watch-http://youtu.be/8qHmXMMCrlI), tells illegal aliens that they too could become the president in this great country.

Some still call Barack Obama president out of pure ignorance, but others brilliantly call him President with a very specific agenda in mind. It’s all over but the crying now… as Article II of the U.S. Constitution is officially dead. Since the nobody Senator from nowhere rose to DNC fame during the 2004 DNC Convention and was subsequently hustled into the highest office in our land despite his blank résumé and invisible past, people have been desperately searching for an honest forum in which to ask – Who is this yahoo, where did he come from and how the hell...

JUSTIA.COM SURGICALLY REMOVED “MINOR v HAPPERSETT” FROM 25 SUPREME COURT OPINIONS IN RUN UP TO ’08 ELECTION Another "Gate" for the most corrupt, illegal "Presidency" in U.S. history. Case records were altered in the most important legal database in the nation, to cover up hard evidence of what a natural born citizen really is, as cases closed in on "Obama's" ineligibility for the US Presidency. So far, it's just on a few blogs and NOT in the MSM. Maybe we can correct that little "oversight?"While you're at it, point out "Obama's": - E-Verify check FAIL - Fraudulent draft registration -...

I didn't see a thread, but wanted to see if anyone was listening to this crap...

President Barack Obama hopes to rally new momentum behind the push for an immigration overhaul by explaining why he thinks a comprehensive approach is the only way to fix what he and others say is a system badly in need of repair. Obama was laying out his rationale in a speech Thursday, his first as president on the issue. Obama wasn't expected to announce any new proposals or policy changes. But feeling pressure from a range of supporters, he was aiming to jump-start the effort he had promised to make a priority in his first year and which advocates had...

      Mr. President, We Are Not Demagogues -- Please Talk With Us    By Roy Beck, Thursday, August 13, 2009, 11:30 PMIn Mexico, Pres. Obama called us a bad name.He was using his appearance in a foreign country to promise that he is determined early next year to "legalize" 12-20 million illegal aliens and put them on a path to U.S. citizenship.He made it pretty clear that he has a lot more admiration for citizens of other countries who break our immigration laws than he does for his own fellow citizens who oppose a blanket amnesty.  The New...

See how many support prez eligibility bill now. U.S. Rep. Marsha Blackburn, a Tennessee Republican, has become the sixth co-sponsor of a proposal by Rep. Bill Posey, R-Fla., that would require documentation of eligibility from presidential candidates. She has joined Reps. John Campbell, R-Calif.; John R. Carter, R-Texas; John Culberson, R-Texas; Bob Goodlatte, R-Va.; and Randy Neugebauer, R-Texas, in support Posey's H.R. 1503 plan.

  President-elect Barack Obama (Photo / mensvogue.com) By Dorothy Rowley AFRO Staff Writer As President-elect Barack Obama prepares to take over as the country’s next commander-in-chief, he not only faces a messy democracy laden with an even messier economic crisis and high expectations for ending the war in Iraq, he also has to deal with a growing contingent of critics who question his certification as president. According to the latest polls, nearly 70 percent of Americans are optimistic that Obama will be a good president. However, most of the other 30 percent who express doubts tend to be Obama...
