The Audacity Of Dishonesty: The One Year Anniversary of The Stimulus
David Horowitz's NewsRealBlog ^ | February 21, 2010 | Liz Blaine

Posted on 02/21/2010 8:31:25 AM PST by callisto

When the Democrat Economic Stimulus plan passed in February 2009, President Barack Obama crowed,

Most of the money we’re investing as part of this plan will get out the door immediately and go directly to job-creation, generating or saving 3 to 4 million new jobs.”
By August, Obama was feigning his ‘the buck stops here’ moment,
“We’ve got some work to do. I don’t mind, by the way, being responsible. I expect to be held responsible. for these issues because I’m the president.“
Despite an $862 billion Economic Stimulus, since Obama took office 4,022,000 jobs have been lost and unemployment reached its highest point in 25 years. It appears the buck is stopping somewhere other than the Oval Office. A new video released by House Republican Whip Eric Cantor (R-VA) shows Obama’s words misrepresent the reality of his actions and the Democrat’s Stimulus has failed the American people. With ammunition like this video the American people will be holding Obama and the Democrats accountable despite the President’s audacity to profess its success.

The only “shovel-ready” jobs created by Obama’s “stimulus” consist in shoveling out the bullshit that’s been generated by this administration.

Yep, and I commend the TOTUS for taking the heat after blaming his very close friend George Bush for everything.

It had to take a lot of courage.

7,000 at the Kennedy Space Center to be laid off in Sept...people who have workded there for decades...

Where will this NASA money go? It's to be funneled off to Muslim countries, starting with Indonesia - to teach them “our technologies”! - while killing our space program.

(7,000 losing their jobs on base will result in another 30K plus as small businesses dependent on the Center will fold...then the foreclosures will start as there will be no jobs to be had - and the houseing market is in the toilet already.)

This is how obyummer ‘saves/creates’ jobs?

This is BLATANT IN-YOUR-FACE redistribution of our money to Muslims in other countries - by-passing Congress. This is illegal. Any one going to stop it?

http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/news_space_thewritestuff/2010/02/nasa-plans-more-outreach-to-muslim-countries.html

NASA plans more outreach to Muslim countries

(per a directive from obyummer)

In addition:

Hillary Clinton
Remarks at the U.S.-Islamic World Forum
Doha, Qatar
February 14, 2010

President {obyummer] and I believe that education and innovation are the currency of this century. That's why he announced a new era of engagement with Muslim communities to expand educational opportunities, support entrepreneurs, and promote advances in science and technology.

Our goal is to identify excellent ideas and successful projects in Muslim communities and then invest in them, help to scale them up, and to connect innovators and entrepreneurs, so that they can support and enhance each other’s work.

We are creating a Global Technology and Innovation Fund, which we will launch this spring, that will provide hundreds of millions of dollars in capital to small and medium-sized businesses throughout the Middle East, Asia, and Africa . . .

We have to continue to expand and strengthen outreach to students. And that is why we have increased funding for educational exchange programs for Muslim students. NASA, our space program, has partnered with the Arab Youth Venture Foundation in Dubai to give Arab and American engineering students the chance to work together on NASA missions.

****************************

and so the redistribution of money out of OUR pockets kicks into high gear. (and the redistribution of jobs - thousands of Americans will loose their jobs - as the money and jobs are given to Muslims around the world...not to mention the technology to boost their goal of reestablishing the Caliphate.)

This traitor in chief stated his goal of redistribution before he was elected...it's the prime tenet of the Black Liberationists churches, one of which he sat in for 20 years.

Batten down the hatches. Buy nothing, save your money and become as independent as you can as to food, water and heat. (gardens, wells, and wood stoves.) November is a long ways off - and there will much implemented before then that will cause havoc in this country for years to come.

They are panicked about the Nov. elections and they are ratcheting up their programs to warp speed.

No one should be shocked if, approaching Nov., they see probable results that will curtail their agenda, there is suddenly an ‘emergency’ requiring martial law - canceling the election.

We are dealing with America-hating, One World Gov’t, driven ‘enemies within’, the likes of which we have never seen or imagined in the history of this country.

Loin girding time...

The result? The result you can see -- most of the people who graduated in the 60's, dropouts or half-baked intellectuals, are now occupying the positions of power in the government, civil service, business, mass media, and educational systems. You are stuck with them. You can't get rid of to them. They are contaminated. They are programmed to think and react to certain stimuli in a certain pattern [alluding to Pavlov]. You can not change their mind even if you expose them to authentic information. Even if you prove that white is white and black is black, you still can not change the basic perception and the logic of behavior. In other words [for] these people the process of demoralization is complete and irreversible. To rid society of these people you need another 15 or 20 years to educate a new generation of patriotically minded and common sense people who would be acting in favor and in the interests of United States society.
---KGB Defector Yuri Bezmenov, circa 1984

And just as dishonesty needs a poster girl as well as a poster boy, Nancy Pelosi is it.

How many times has this harridan gone out in public and proclaimed that the Congress is single mindedly forcing and abomination down our throats because they are doing the will of the people?

While all the while, even the most doctored poll shows 70+% against the damned thing?

What she means, of course, is that they're doing the will of her people--the fruits and nuts of California.

Not exactly. You see, there’s the people, and there’s the serfs.

We are the serfs. The ‘ruling class’ are the people.

And THAT is how she rolls.

Dear Citizens,

Due to the current financial situation caused by the slowdown in the economy, I, President Obama have decided to implement a scheme to put workers of 50 years of age and above on early retirement.

This scheme will be known as RAPE (Retire Aged People Early).

Persons selected to be RAPED can apply to Congress to be considered for the SHAFT scheme (Special Help After Forced Termination).

Persons who have been RAPED and SHAFTED will be reviewed under the SCREW program (Scheme Covering Retired-Early Workers).

A person may be RAPED once, SHAFTED twice and SCREWED as many times as I, President Obama deem appropriate.

Persons who have been RAPED could get AIDS (Additional Income for Dependants & Spouse) or HERPES (Half Earnings for Retired Personnel Early Severance).

Obviously persons who have AIDS or HERPES will not be SHAFTED or SCREWED any further by me, President Obama. Persons who are not RAPED and are staying on will receive as much SHIT (Special High Intensity Training) as possible. I, President Obama have always prided myself on the amount of SHIT I give our citizens.

Should you feel that you do not receive enough SHIT, please bring this to the attention of your Congressman, who has been trained to give you all the SHIT you can handle.

Sincerely,
President Obama

PS - Due to recent budget cuts and the rising cost of electricity, gas and oil, as well as current market conditions, the Light at the End of the Tunnel has been turned off.
