Obama To Take Yet Another Vacation To Get Rest From Vacations

obama_golfWhy does Obama need yet another vacation? The guy doesn’t do a damn thing unless sitting around figuring better ways to ruin the Republican party counts as work. Perhaps sitting about waxing poetic about the greatness of socialism and how it will destroy America.

What a joke. Golf lessons? Trust me Obama your golf game sucks more than your domestic policy. JD

President Barack Obama will spend the long holiday weekend in Florida, relaxing with friends.

The White House said this week that Obama would head to the West Palm Beach area on Friday, after a stop earlier in the day in Chicago, his hometown, to discuss economic proposals in his State of the Union address.

Spokesman Josh Earnest said Thursday that Obama would spend a few days on Florida’s Atlantic Coast relaxing with friends he did not identify. No public events were scheduled.

“The president of the United States is the president of the United States 24 hours a day, and will fulfill his responsibilities as president even while he’s getting some well-deserved downtime with some friends this weekend,” Earnest told reporters traveling with Obama. “I don’t think the American people will begrudge him that.”

Obama’s traditional Christmas vacation in his native Hawaii was interrupted last year as he negotiated with Congress to avoid a slate of automatic tax increases and spending cuts that could have hurt the economy.

He spent Christmas in Hawaii with first lady Michelle Obama and daughters Malia and Sasha, but soon after returned to Washington to resume negotiations. He flew back to the island state on New Year’s Day, after a deal was reached, and returned to the White House with his family several days later.

Earnest did not mention Obama’s family, which suggested that the first lady and their daughters would not join the president on vacation in a state he narrowly won on his way to re-election.

Mrs. Obama’s office did not respond to a question about her plans for the weekend.

At an event Thursday at a school in suburban Atlanta, where Obama talked about his proposal to provide preschool for every 4-year-old, he allowed that Malia could have plans of her own this weekend.

“Now, I do have to warn the parents who are here who still have young kids. They grow up to be, like, 5-10, and even if they’re still nice to you, they basically don’t have a lot of time for you during the weekends,” the president said. “They have sleepovers and – dates. So all that early investment just leads them to go away.”

Obama often jokes about how tall Malia has grown – she’s nearly as tall as her 6-foot-1 father – and how little time she has to spend with him now that she’s a teenager.

Applebees, Papa Johns Hammered by cyber-bullies for Obamacare comments

I do believe we are witnessing a behavior by the people on the left that’s becoming a little too Hitleresque in today’s America. It seems that if someone says something that you disagree with, you simply get on the internet and shout them down.

Twitter seems to be the main source of this behavior, but Facebook is running a close second.

Among the commandments of life under the Obama administration: thou shalt not speak ill of Obamacare.

Papa John’s CEO John Schnatter was hammered with Twitter abuse after informing shareholders and franchisees in August that implementing Obamacare would necessarily increase costs of running the business.

Applebee’s is under the gun today after Zane Tankel, a franchisee whose company runs 40 New York-area restaurants, told Fox Business Network that a hiring freeze might be in the works.

Is this really the kind of America anyone would want to live in? Where if you dare to have an opinion outside of the Obamatron thinking you are attacked and ridiculed publicly by what amounts to nothing more than a bunch of cyber-bullies?

At what point do the democrats start to round up all the conservatives and put them into concentration camps to “re-educate” them into thinking like democrats?

For you libretards out there that don’t even have an inkling as to what the United States Constitution and the amendments contained therein say, we all have a right to freedom of speech. Not just the democrats.

All of this is coming from the Democratic National Committee and the Obama administration itself.

Its as if Obama has read Hitler’s “Mein Kampf” and is running his administration accordingly.

One day soon this will all come to an end. When we are killing each other in the streets and America has collapsed under its own socialist bloat, then maybe we will all look back on the Obama administration as the beginning of the end. JD

Media Uses Obscure Mourdock Race In Indiana In Attempt To Help Failing Obama Campaign

In yet another show of clear bias by the American media and demonstrating their intrinsic connection to the democratic party, the media has decided to latch on to a comment made by Indiana senate candidate Richard Mourdock (who’s name is amazingly close to Rupert Murdoch Owner of FOXNEWS yet so obscure that my computer sees “Mourdock” as mis-spelled but “Murdoch” as spelled correctly) and somehow make connection to Presidential candidate Mitt Romney.

Lets examine a few facts here. First of all the amazingly close name of Richard Mourdock to that of Rupert Murdoch, owner of FOXNEWS. Coincidence? I doubt it. What happened here was the DNC and the Obama Administration were advised by Mourdock’s challenger Rep. Joe Donnelly about the comment.

Obama and his minions sent out a press release to the media about their take on the comment, which for those of you that don’t know, are actually directives telling their media propaganda machine to latch onto the story and make it front page news.

Why would they do this? Because President Obama has lost a large percentage of the female vote because the women of America see him for what he is, pompous and arrogant.

The quickest way to lose the female vote if your a man is to come off as arrogant.

After the first debate, women were appalled at Obama’s behavior. After the second debate Obama lost a huge block of female voters. His internal polling numbers are probably even worse then his public poll numbers, so they latched on to this story like a puppy latching on to his moms teat for a meal.

The beauty in all of this? It shows the Absolute desperation of the Obama campaign and the DNC. They see the writing on the wall. Their Messiah is going to lose the election.

When I say lose, I mean LOSE BY A LANDSLIDE. In fact, I see a repeat of Reagan Carter in the making here. Its like history repeating itself.

Ronald Reagan was polling way behind front runner Jimmy Carter the President of the United States.

The media was busy for months leading up to the election making Reagan out to be an incredibly stupid man, an actor from Hollywood that had no idea how to drive a car, let alone run a country.

There were stories in the media about Bozo goes to Washington, cartoons ridiculing Reagan for being an actor (even though he was a former governor of the state of California) that were just a media attempt to discredit Reagan and make him out to be a fool.

As the election grew near, suddenly the polls were saying that Carter would win, but by a much smaller margin of victory. Today there are countless liberal websites dedicate to dispelling Reagan’s comeback in the polls as a myth, but I was there. I lived it. I am not some wet behind the ears pooh butt college graduate that has been indoctrinated into the socialist machine.

You need to understand that Reagan was projected to lose just three weeks before the election by a large margin. In just two of those three weeks he had closed the gap.

Now big toady conservatives like to believe that it was because Ronald Reagan was just that good at campaigning.

I like to believe that it was a corrupt media and their skewing of polling data that are to blame for the entire Reagan Carter debacle.

Articles like the one below are a prefect example of the nonsense from the leftist media.

Read the article, paying special attention to phrases like “and potential trouble for the Romney campaign” and “Mourdock, a tea party-backed conservative Republican.”

Phrases like these are planted all over the article to plant negative connotations of Mitt Romney in your head and to get you talking to your friends about not how despicable Richard Mourdock is, but how despicable a man Mitt Romney is for having supported Mourdock in the first place. So read on. Perhaps now you will think twice when you read this mindless drivel from the left. JD

Indiana Senate candidate Richard Mourdock became the latest Republican to stir up controversy – and potential trouble for the Romney campaign – when he said during a debate that “even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that is something that God intended to happen.”

Mourdock, a tea party-backed conservative Republican, unseated longtime Sen. Richard Lugar after a heated primary campaign. On Sunday, with his general election race tightening, he received Mitt Romney’s official support. Utah Sen. Orrin Hatch is the only other candidate Romney has appeared on camera to endorse.

“With so much at stake, I hope you’ll join me in supporting Richard Mourdock for U.S. Senate,” Romney says in the new web video.

Mourdock made his controversial remarks during a debate with with Rep. Joe Donnelly, a three-term congressman who is also anti-abortion, on Tuesday night. By early this morning, the Democratic National Committee had already edited the Romney endorsement video to include Mourdock’s comments from the night before.

Romney spokeswoman Andrea Saul said the candidate “disagrees with Richard Mourdock, and Mr.Mourdock’s comments do not reflect Gov. Romney’s views.” The campaign, though, has no plans to ask him to take down the spot featuring Romney’s endorsement.

The Republican presidential nominee supports abortion in cases of rape, incest or when the life of the woman is in danger. His running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan, does not support an exception, and has so far remained silent, referring reporters to the campaign’s official statements.

This morning, Mourdock tried to put his comment into a less stark context.

“God creates life, and that was my point,” he said in a press release. “God does not want rape, and by no means was I suggesting that he does. Rape is a horrible thing, and for anyone to twist my words otherwise is absurd and sick.”

At a news conference later he said that his words were “mistook and twisted,” and that the uproar is symptomatic of “what’s wrong with Washington.”

“I believe God controls the universe,” Mourdoch told reporters, who asked if he thought pregnancies resulting from rape were God’s plan. “I don’t believe biology works in an uncontrolled fashion.”

New Hampshire Sen. Kelly Ayotte, a popular Republican, has cancelled plans to campaign with Mourdock, who told reporters he had suggested to Ayotte that she put off the trip. Massachusetts Republican Sen. Scott Brown, up for re-election now in the Bay State, has also spoken out against Mourdock.

Obama campaign spokeswoman Jen Psaki called Mourdock’s words “outrageous and demeaning to women,” then sought to tie them to Romney, whom she said would work with a Republican Congress to promote the idea “that women should not be able to make choices about their own health care.”

DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz used the same language to condemn Mourdock’s statement, calling it “outrageous and demeaning to women.”

“Unfortunately, they’ve become part and parcel of the modern Republican Party’s platform toward women’s health, as Congressional Republicans like Paul Ryan have worked to outlaw all abortions and even narrow the definition of rape,” Wasserman Schultz said.

The anti-abortion Susan B. Anthony List group backed Murdoch’s characterization and has affirmed its support for his candidacy in an email that accuses his opponent, Rep. Joe Donnelly, of twisting the Republican’s words.

“Richard Mourdock said that life is always a gift from God, and we couldn’t agree more,” SBA List President Marjorie Dannenfelser wrote this morning. “To report his statement as an endorsement of rape is either willfully ignorant or malicious.”

Texas Sen. John Cornyn, the chairman of the Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee also joined the chorus defending Mourdock.

“Richard and I, along with millions of Americans – including even [Democratic opponent] Joe Donnelly – believe that life is a gift from God,” Cornyn said. “To try and construe his words as anything other than a restatement of that belief is irresponsible and ridiculous. In fact, rather than condemning him for his position, as some in his party have when it’s come to Republicans, I commend Congressman Donnelly for his support of life.”

Donald Trump Has ‘Big Announcement’ About Obama

donald trumps hair a mess funny

We have a “Big Announcement” about Donald Trump. Do something with that coon skin cap you call hair. It seems to start over Trumps ear, possibly carrying some neck and back hair into it, swirling around his head twice into some sort of vortex on the top of his head.

We are of the opinion that “The Donald’s” hair dresser must incorporate a jet engine to make his hair look like that. Face it Donald, you are bald. Go with it. JD

With the third and final presidential debate set to take place later Monday, self-promoter-extraordinaire and longtime Obama antagonist Donald Trump made an early morning appearance on “Fox and Friends,” claiming he had “something very, very big” to reveal concerning the president.

Naturally, Mr. Trump would not give any hints as to what this supposed bombshell might be. He only said that he would make an announcement about it sometime soon, “probably on Wednesday.”

RECOMMENDED: Presidential debates: 7 defining moments in history

But he promised it was big. Really big. Like, “bigger than anybody would know.” He predicted his Fox hosts “will cover it in a very big fashion.”

Of course, Trump has done this before: In the run-up to the Republican National Convention, he promised a “big surprise,” as well. In the end, the only surprise there was the appearance by actor Clint Eastwood – and we all know how that turned out. (It was later revealed that Trump had taped a video of himself “firing” the president, but when the convention was shortened by a day due to weather, the video tragically got cut.)

This time, the obvious speculation regarding Trump’s announcement is that it may have something to do with the “birther” controversy. Trump has, after all, taken on the mantle of most-prominent-conspiracy-theorist claiming Obama may not have been born in the United States. Last year, he famously made a big show of hiring a team of private investigators to look into the matter.

But even if all Trump is planning to reveal is that he’s inviting Obama to appear on “Celebrity Apprentice” – well, we suppose we’ve got to give him points on the psychological warfare front.

You see, on the eve of a big – and, by most accounts, critical – debate, it’s not an uncommon tactic for each side to try to “get in the other guy’s head.” Announcing that you’ve got something damaging on your opponent – but refraining from saying what, exactly, it might be – could be seen as an attempt to do just that. In this case, a clumsy, transparently obvious attempt, via an individual whose support the Romney campaign has not exactly welcomed with open arms. But an attempt, nonetheless.

Some Democrats actually think this may have been what happened to the president in the run-up to the first debate. As you may recall, the conservative Daily Caller website teased (via Drudge and Fox News) the unveiling of a “bombshell video” that turned out to be a five-year-old tape of Obama speaking to a mostly black audience at Hampton University. In the speech, Obama indicated he thought the slow response to Hurricane Katrina had been influenced by race, and he gave a shout-out to the controversial Rev. Jeremiah Wright. Most media outlets wound up dismissing the tape as old news – but the day-long buildup to the video’s release was, as the Huffington Post’s Jason Linkins put it, “a work of genius.”

And some pundits later speculated that all the racially tinged back-and-forth over the video may have, somehow, subconsciously influenced Obama into giving a more subdued appearance at the first debate.

Now, the president is almost certainly less likely to be affected by Trump’s attempts to get under his skin – since, at this point, it’s practically become a regular occurrence. And Trump’s gambit may even backfire – as has much of the “birther” talk throughout the campaign – by pushing moderate independents toward the Democrats. Still, The Donald’s out there trying.

Lance Armstrong was Steroid kingpin in biggest doping conspiracy in sports

The United States Anti-Doping Agency charged him with six offences covering the use of banned substances, the trafficking of drugs, the administration of drugs to team-mates and aiding and abetting a massive cover-up between 1998 and 2005, a period when he dominated the world’s most famous race.

Dave Brailsford, British Cycling’s performance director who was key to Bradley Wiggins becoming the first Briton to win the Tour de France this year, said was stunned to read the USADA findings. “It is shocking, it’s jaw dropping and it is very unpleasant.”

A total of 26 witnesses including 11 fellow riders from the United States Postal Service team testified to USADA against Armstrong in a ­doping case the agency described as “more extensive than any previously revealed in professional sports ­history”.

The dossier has been sent to the International Cycling Union which now has 21 days to challenge its findings and appeal to the World Anti-Doping Agency or comply with the decision to strip Armstrong of his seven Tour de France titles.

In a statement on Wednesday night UCI said it will examine the evidence and “provide a timely response”.
USADA released the findings of a two-year investigation yesterday accusing Armstrong of using a cocktail of banned substances and blood transfusions. They built up a picture of an elaborate doping ring which alleged the involvement of support staff, fellow riders and even his former wife. The doping programme was the brainchild of disgraced Italian doctor, Michele Ferrari, and Armstrong would travel across Europe during and before races to have blood transfusions.
The report also accused Armstrong of administering testosterone to a team-mate, threatening fellow riders with the sack if they did not follow Dr Ferrari’s EPO programme and of surrounding himself with drug runners “so that he could achieve his goal of winning the Tour de France year after year”. The report says there was a “code of silence” in cycling as Armstrong intimidated whistle-blowers and the 200 pages of evidence referenced financial records, email traffic, and laboratory test results which the agency believes proved he was ­doping for years.

“The USPS Team doping conspiracy was professionally designed to groom and pressure athletes to use dan­gerous drugs, to evade detection, to ensure its secrecy and ultimately gain an unfair competitive advantage through superior doping practices,” the agency said. “A program ­organised by individuals who thought they were above the rules and who still play a major and active role in sport today.”
