It’s obvious that we haven’t “redistributed” enough stuff yet.

On the one hand, among the many Official Positions of the US Military are “to run to the sound of the guns, “ and “ - - we leave no man behind. - - - “.

On the other hand, the US Commander in Chief’s Official Policy has been, and is now, to “Lead from Behind.”

Which is the hand that offers the most protection to those we hire to be put in harm’s way to protect us?

IMHO, the two hands are mutually exclusive.

After THE TRUTH is revealed by Trey Gowdy’s Select Committee, severe punishment must be meted out that will serve as a deterrent to any future Commander in Chief who tries TO MAKE SURE THAT IT DOES HAPPEN AGAIN.

To cease to severely punish the guilty, is to cease to have reason for Law and Order.

Currently, B. Hussein Obama is Guilty of Treason until proven Innocent.

No need to flame me, as ONLY in US politics is someone Guilty until proven Innocent.

The rest of us must comply with the Law of the Land: Tell the Truth, accept responsibility for one’s actions, and comply with THE LAW.

This is in glaring contrast to what the Obama Administration’s, (and the Democrats who still support Obama), Rules of Conduct have actually been for the last 5 years as follows:

LIE, DENY AND REFUSE TO COMPLY.

The choice is clear for the Democrats: seek the truth with Select Benghazi Committee Chairman Gowdy, or continue to embrace the CULT OF OBAMANATION.

BTW, Democrats in the US House: ALL of y’all are up for re-election this November - - - - .

With the help of the deep thinkers in the MSM, we'll just redefine "decline" as "progress." The LIVs will love it, and everyone else will be out-voted.

Problem solved.

No growth during first quarter...remarkable string of luck during the Reagan recovery with all that balmy weather during those winters.

Can I make an observation? Even if the real number of those who signed up is 8 million, aren’t we still far short of the 40 to 50 million uninsured in this country being insured???

Obama did his victory lap, and the media lapped it up, when they hit the target of sign ups. I’m just confused, because if we have 40-50 million uninsured in this country, don’t we still have tens of millions uninsured? And wasn’t the goal of Obamacare to cover everybody? And based on that, isn’t the 8 million number representing an abject failure????

Nothing about increased government tyranny, government monitoring of citizens, or the stasi state. Pretty typical inside the GOP-E beltway interpretations.

The fact we’re in steep decline is the desired result of Obama and those who voted him in.

“The fact we’re in steep decline is the desired result of Obama and those who voted him in.”

And they’d vote him into a 3rd term if they could.

We are doomed. We are one major event from chaos.

Back in 2009, shortly after the coronation of the Current Occupant now squatting in the White Hut, I was the recipient and one of the distributors of an email that depicted The Won as an airline pilot, seated in the cockpit, as he came on the intercom as the Captain speaking.

He was explaining his relative inexperience, but that he would not make the kind of mistakes that any of his predecessors may have made, he couldn’t be bothered with those old outmoded GPS guidance signals, but not to worry, he had never made a mistake as a pilot, and we should all just sit back and enjoy the ride.

And concluded with “What could possibly go wrong?”

Now we know.

...47 percent saying they are "struggling,"...

Gee, look at that. Funny about that 46% number, isn't it?

Yup, the Democrats are trashing this country while Boehner and McConnell do, or at least say very little.

Nothing new. We have been in decline for decades. Obama is just another cog on the wheel of self destruction.

He’s done what he intended to do, which is set America on its course for demise. Everything, and that means everything, that he’s done has been detrimental to America, and that can’t be coincidence when it’s everything.
