President Sends Admiral to Afghan. to Scare Troops

As reported on Gateway Pundit.

Barack Obama had Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Adm. Mike Mullen fly to Afghanistan this weekend to tell the troops serving there that their families may not get paid if a debt agreement is not reached. Admiral Mullen was meeting with US troops serving in southern Afghanistan.

Obama plays politics with the troops serving in harm’s way. NICE!

This really is the most outrageous political act this President has ever done as far as I am concerned.
The Dems have tried to scare Seniors in to thinking they won't be getting SSI checks or medicare benefits, and scaring the poor that medicaid will be cut out of their lives.
It's absolute BULLSH*T! That WON'T happen. And the Dems know it!

I might be wrong here, but I don't think the President has this authority to cut off payments to any of these programs, let along the military.
Only congress can.

Is this shared sacrifice?

Something that was passed on to me by Adams Patriot sure does make a good  point.

No Cost Of Living Adjustment.. Well look what has happened!
(click on Picture to enlarge)

Is this shared sacrifice? Why is no one reporting on this outrage?

Remember: no Cost of Living Adjustment for seniors for two years .

HMMM... 17% to 86% RAISES IN SALARY FOR HIS WHITE HOUSE STAFF MEMBERS !!.  NO WONDER WE CAN'T HAVE A COST OF LIVING INCREASE & HE WANTS TO NOW RAISE OUR TAXES ALSO.  SOUNDS LIKE THE ADMINISTRATION   IS REALLY LOOKING OUT FOR THE VOTERS, DOESN'T IT ???? 

And Obama's solution to the debt ceiling squabble is to cut seniors paid benefits ( They are not entitlements, we paid for them all our working life and into retirement.) in the form of their SS checks, cover their Medicare or Medicaid payments.   Both parties are responsible, but Obama wants no restraints for his people...this has become personal and always was if truth be known.  Long ago the government began raiding this source of income as their slush fund in times of plenty by not keeping it separate.  Dates back to Lyndon Johnson's administration when these acts were passed into law.

QUIT SPENDING!  STOP THE NEW ENTITLEMENTS TO ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS, BAILOUTS, PHONY GOVERNMENT JOB CREATIONS, EXCESS FOREIGN AID TO COUNTRIES THAT 'ARE NOT REALLY OUR ALLIES', SS PAYMENTS TO ILLEGALS & DEPENDENTS, AND MOST OF ALL...VERY PHONY FRAUDULENT BY BUSINESS STANDARDS, GRANTS TO RESEARCH 'THINGS THAT DON'T REALLY MEAN SQUAT' TO THE MAJORITY OF LEGAL CITIZENS IN THE UNITED STATES.  THAT'S JUST FOR STARTERS...THEN PASS A LINE ITEM VETO AMENDMENT, DEMAND A BALANCED BUDGET, REVAMP THE TAX CODE SO THAT ' EVERYONE PAYS A SHARE OF THE TAX BURDEN', ( WITHOUT ALL CITIZENS SHARING, IT'S ALWAYS THEM AGAINST US OR WHATEVER LABEL YOU APPLY TO IT)  DELETE PUFFED UP GOVERNMENT STAFF JOBS LIKE THE ONES ATTACHED TO THIS EMAIL.  PLUS - MAKE IT MANDATORY FOR ALL CONGRESSIONAL  MEMBERS (STAFFERS TOO) ALL FEDERAL COURTS, APPELLATE & SUPREME JUDGES TOO, ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES & SENATORS (THEIR STAFFERS ALSO) , CZAR APPOINTMENTS & STAFFS, PRES & V.P. & STAFFS BE SERVED BY THE SAME MEDICAL CARE THE MAJORITY OF THIS NATION IS SUBJECTED TO WITHOUT EXCLUSION.   NO FREE PASSES PELOSI...

NOW THAT WE'VE ESTABLISHED IT ONLY TAKES ABOUT 2 YEARS TO RUIN AN ECONOMY BY  THROWING MORE MONEY AT THE PERCEIVED PROBLEMS RATHER THAN HALT WHAT'S CAUSING THE CRISIS, FIX THE PROBLEM AND STOP HISTORY FROM REPEATING ITSELF.  PUT INTO PLACE MANDATORY TERM LIMITS FOR ALL ELECTED OFFICIALS....THIS COUNTRY CAN NOT STAND 4 MORE YEARS OF THIS TYPE OF LEADERSHIP...PERIOD.  

Let's set the record straight.  In 1970 I tried to stop my SS payments to put at least that amount into interest bearing accounts and investments to take care of my own family, not controlled by the government.  I had already seen the government take care of me for almost 2yrs. on active duty with the Navy.  (I was not impressed with how they cared for our well being. )  THE GOVERNMENT DID NOT ALLOW ME TO DO THAT.  I tried and was threatened with incarceration.  So here I am...with the talking heads in DC trying to destroy everything we worked for for 40 years.   Thereby continuing to affect all we've worked to accomplish thus far in our lifetimes.

The Mindset Creation From the MSM

This interview was conducted outside last weekends NAACP Convention in California.

The interviewee was visibly upset that the South Central Tea Party (which is mostly black) and the San Diego Tea Party came together to protest the NAACP
It is quite clear he knows nothing of the grassroots movement of the Tea Party Organization.

And it is quite obvious that he is only speaking out from what he has been told about us.

1st Amendment Under Attack, Now By VA

The VA, Veterans Administration, has enter the Presidents agenda to violate the Constitution, particularly our 1st amendment rights.

That is that 'Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof'

As reported on Fox News:
John Culberson (R-Texas) is calling for a congressional investigation of the Houston National Cemetery after he went undercover and determined that cemetery officials there are still preventing Christian prayers at the funerals of military veterans.


Culberson witnessed volunteer members of the honor guard from the Veterans of Foreign Wars being prohibited from using any references to God

Controversy first surfaced nationally at the cemetery during a Memorial Day event when a Houston pastor was ordered by the VA to remove the name of Jesus from his prayer.

The Memorial Day service enragged many Americans and the cemetery is already the focus of a lawsuit filed on behalf of the VFW, an American Legion post and Houston’s National Memorial Ladies. They claim the VA banned members of the organizations from using the words “God” or “Jesus” at burial services.

During the undercover work, Culberson said the commander of the honor guard was told by cemetery officials to approach a grieving widow to reconfirm that she wanted the word God mentioned at her husband’s graveside service.


(Reconfirm to me would be she had already 'confirmed' she wanted God mentioned.)

Culberson continues: “He (HonorGuard Commander) quite correctly said (to the cemetery officials) as a Texan and a man of honor and integrity, ‘I’m not bothering that poor woman at this most terrible time of her life. We’re going to do the ritual,’ Right in front of me, the VA directly and deliberately attempted to prevent the VFW from doing their magnificent, spiritual ritual over the grave of this fallen hero."


“The Obama administration continues to try to prevent the word ‘God’ from being used at the funerals of our heroes,” said. Culberson.

“It’s unacceptable and I’m going to put a stop to it as fast as humanly possible,”

Lack of respect by this President of the constitution is becoming treasonous.... lack of Congress approval on Libya and then 'prohibiting the free exercise thereof' at the Houston National Cemetery!

Convenient Coordinated Effort

Last night, President Barack Obama made good on his threat to Eric Cantor to take his case “to the American people.”

But the people he’s counting on most are not the general public, but the small core of left-wing activists planning nationwide protests at congressional offices today.

Example would be Former “green jobs” czar Van Jones said in a column on the Huffington Post entitled: “Tuesday: Rallies Everywhere to Save the American Dream“: (TAKE NOTE OF THE TIME OF HIS POST. 11:52 AM ON THE 25TH, 9 HOURS BEFORE OBAMA'S SPEECH)

Enough is enough.

Speaker Boehner’s decision last week to walk out in the middle of negotiations with President Obama was the last straw.

The time has come — at long last — for America’s super-majority to stand up against the extreme, hostage-taking tactics of the Tea Party minority in Congress.

Tea Party Republicans would rather shred America’s safety net and also risk tanking America’s economy than raise taxes one penny on their super-wealthy donors and corporate backers.

This Tuesday at noon, everyday Americans will finally have the chance to be heard, across America, at the local offices of every member of Congress. The American Dream movement — which includes dozens of organizations and thousands of individuals who are standing up for the middle class and working class families — is calling for emergency mobilizations across the country tomorrow.

Moveon.org has sent emails to its members, asking them to demonstrate outside Republican congressional offices tomorrow:

Our only chance to move the Republicans is to make sure that the dire consequences of their actions are laid directly at their feet. So with other leaders of the American Dream movement, we’re putting out an urgent call for every patriotic American to show up outside Republican congressional offices on Tuesday at noon to deliver a crucial message: “Don’t destroy the American Dream.”

And then there is Obama referring to Republican members of Congress alone:

So I’m asking you all to make your voice heard.  If you want a balanced approach to reducing the deficit, let your Member of Congress know.  If you believe we can solve this problem through compromise, send that message.  

The timing here is just way too convenient to be accidental. President Obama is probably coordinating his message last night with the message that the left-wing faux grass-roots will try to broadcast around the country today, hoping to portray their well-planned efforts as a spontaneous response to Obama’s prime-time address. 


To counter this, I would highly recommend you do the same with your congress representative and tell them to stand with responsibility before Obama and the Senate Dems push us all over the cliff.

GOP Ready To Craft Another Plan to Tackle Our Debt

Seems as though the Republicans are the only ones doing any real work on this situation.
This is being reported on Big Government.com

House Republicans are finishing work on a new proposal to resolve the standoff over the debt ceiling. The proposal, set to be finished and crafted into the form of a bill by Sunday, will be in two parts. The first will combine a short-term increase in the debt ceiling with spending cuts. The second will lay the groundwork for a longer-term increase in the debt ceiling coupled with far-reaching deficit reduction.
“Senator Reid said on Friday that he is going to wait for us to move,” says a well-informed GOP House aide. “So we’ll move.” Another well-informed aide confirmed the basic outline of what’s happening.
Staff of the House Rules Committee is involved in the work, which is an indication that the process is nearing completion. Before any bill can be considered on the House floor, the Rules Committee must first pass a rule setting out the process for its consideration. Once the proposal is finished, it would likely be posted on the Rules Committee website, probably no later than Monday, so the committee could meet to consider it on Tuesday and it could be on the House floor by Wednesday.
Work on the new proposal was underway before negotiations with the White House blew up on Friday. Sources say the plan was being created last week, even as the House leadership devoted considerable time to passing the “Cut, Cap, and Balance” proposal. Once the Senate Democratic leadership blocked “Cut, Cap, and Balance,” House leaders stepped up work on the new proposal. Right now, the new direction is believed to be the only way forward. “McConnell-Reid is just not a viable option in the House,” the aide says, referring to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s complicated proposal to allow the president to increase the debt ceiling.
In a 2 p.m. Saturday conference call with Republicans, House Speaker John Boehner said that a new proposal was in the works, and that it would have two parts, but did not go into significant detail about what it would involve. Boehner told his fellow GOP lawmakers that he hoped to have something done by 4 p.m. Eastern Time on Sunday in time to reassure Asian financial markets, which open at that time.

I will be watching for this new plan and read it cover to cover. 

I highly recommend you do the same.

Where does our Social Security Funds Go To?

This video is fairly long.
But it's long to get a very important message across.
And that is, where is our SSI funds you pay, go to?

This video will show " a development in Tacoma WA (Salishan) that was built for Illegal Immigrants! 1325 Homes created! Refugee Pay (from SSI) offers them $2642 per month in benefits, plus Food Stamps, plus Section 8 Housing. You will see new expensive cars in this video. Wouldn't you like to get a free ride like the illegals?"


As stated in the video "By the way, food stamp cards ARE except at the Casinos to play Bingo"





The Federal government is using YOUR nest egg to give illegal refugees a style of living that a lot of Americans could only dream about.


No wonder it's going broke!
Time to end this practice once and for all.

CCB is Tabled in the Democrat Senate

Today, Harry Reid's controlled Senate, in effect, killed the House passed Cut, Cap & Balanced bill that would begin the process of eliminating our debt, cut our spending while strengthening our important entitlement programs for our seniors, disabled & needy.

But, like the minion protector that Reid is, he thinks his real job (and most on the left agree with him) is to protect the President from political harm.

The House bill is the best solution to our fragile economical times, with real direction.
According to Reid, CCB is:

“Weak and Senseless... Perhaps the worst piece of legislation we have ever had in the country."

No Senator, Obamacare was the worst piece (of sh*t) legislation we have ever had in this country, and the American people agree with me.





My strong suggestion would be to Speaker Boehner... Move on with other business.

He, and the Republican House did their job, as they were elected to do.
Let August 2nd come and go.
The real point of blame will HAVE to be Harry Reid and the United States Senate.

Gov. Chrysler Crapshoot Ends in a Loss

Today the U.S government ended it's investment in Chrysler and sold its shares at a loss of $1.3 billion in taxpayer money, the Treasury Department said Thursday, announcing the end of a controversial investment that stabilized the crashing auto company. 


And what happened to the U.S. government's remaining 98,000 shares it held in the auto company?
They sold it's stake to the Italian automaker Fiat SpA for a total dollar package of $560M.


Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee said today that; 

"I am deeply disturbed to learn that the Obama administration left $1.3 billion taxpayer dollars on the table in resolving its bailout of Chrysler. The administration has sold out an American icon to a foreign company using TARP funds underwritten by taxpayers. Now they are essentially give that same company $1.3 billion of taxpayer money. At a time when American taxpayers must make tough choices to repay their mortgages, even on houses worth less than they paid, it is unfathomable that Italian automaker Fiat and its subsidiary Chrysler got away with repaying less than the full amount borrowed from the U.S. government

Treasury provided a total of $12.5 billion to Chrysler and its financing arm after the recession slammed auto sales and sent Chrysler and General Motors to the brink of collapse. The funds came from the government's $700 billion bank bailout fund.

$11.2 billion of the assistance has been repaid according to the Treasury Dept. Chrysler repaid $5.1 billion in loans from the government in May. But the $1.3 billion remaining is unlikely to be recovered, Treasury said.

Tim Massad, assistant secretary for financial stability had this to say. 

"This is a major accomplishment and further evidence of the success of the administration's actions to assist the U.S. auto industry, which helped save a million jobs during the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression." 

The purchase of the government's stake gives Fiat 52 percent ownership of Chrysler. That's likely to rise to 57 percent before the end of the year.

But that is really NOT "a major accomplishment"

The Treasury Dept. just handed control of a US Business to a foreign company.

Let The Stars & Stripes Fly

Is this all it takes?
I WISH!


Report from Fox News

Just a glimpse at the American flag can sway voters, even Democrats, toward more Republican voting behavior, attitudes and beliefs, a new two-year study says.

The authors, from the University of Chicago, Cornell University and Hebrew University, say the research proves the American flag has a powerful effect on voters.

"A single exposure to an American flag resulted in a significant increase in participants' Republican voting intentions, voting behavior, political beliefs, and implicit and explicit attitudes, with some effects lasting eight months," reads the study titled, "Long-Term Effects of U.S. Flag Exposure on Republicanism." 

"These results constitute the first evidence that nonconscious priming effects from exposure to a national flag can bias the citizenry toward one political party and can have considerable durability," the study says.

In the study, first reported on by "U.S. News and World Report," participants, mostly Democratic-leaning, were asked to fill out a survey about their opinions on Democratic and Republican parties, leaders and their voting intentions. Half of the surveys contained a small American flag in the top left corner. They were given out just before the 2008 presidential election.

Although 90 percent of participants said they wouldn't be influenced by the presence of a flag, the scholars found that the participants exposed to the flag had a bias toward the Republican Party and shifted their behaviors toward the Republican end of the spectrum.

"A single exposure to a small American flag during deliberation about voting intentions prior to a general election led to significant and robust changes in participants' voting intentions, voting behavior, and political attitudes, all in the politically conservative direction," the study reads.

Now, what's that say about the Democrats ability to sway voters to Patriotism?

Allen West Hammers Debbie Wasserman Schultz

Allen West from Florida slams Debbie Wasserman Schultz in an email on Tuesday by calling the Democratic colleague from their state "vile, despicable and cowardly" after she called into question his stance on Medicare during the debate over a spending cap and balanced budget bill before the House.

What he said- "Look, Debbie, I understand that after I departed the House floor you directed your floor speech comments directly towards me. Let me make myself perfectly clear, you want a personal fight, I am happy to oblige. You are the most vile, unprofessional and despicable member of the US House of Representatives. If you have something to say to me, stop being a coward and say it to my face, otherwise, shut the heck up..."that you are not a Lady" and "shall not be afforded due respect from me!"

What she said on the House floor after West left- "The gentleman from Florida, who represents thousands of Medicare beneficiaries, as do I, is supportive of this plan that would increase costs for Medicare beneficiaries. Unbelievable from a member from south Florida."

Wasserman didn't have the guts to author her own response, but rather left it to her spokesperson, Jonathan Beeton- "I don't think that Congressman West is upset at the congresswoman, but rather with the fact that she highlighted that he and other Republicans are once again trying to balance the budget on the backs of seniors... The truth hurts.".

Well Wasserman and Beeton need to take a little of their own comment to heart and read the truth.


H.R.2560, SEC. 318. ENFORCEMENT OF DISCRETIONARY AND DIRECT SPENDING CAPS “(a) Implementation.—The sequesters shall be implemented as follows:

(B) Section 255 of the Balanced Budget and Control Act of 1985 shall not apply to this section, except that payments for military personnel accounts (within subfunctional category 051), TRICARE for Life, Medicare (functional category 570), military retirement, Social Security (functional category 650), veterans (functional category 700), net interest (functional category 900), and discretionary appropriations shall be exempt.

It's obvious Wasserman didn't read the bill.

It's about the content of ones caricature!

Cut, Cap & Balance

Who, in their right mind, would oppose the Balanced Budget Amendment? (OK, I know you know the answer to the question.)


An Amendment that would force the Government to live with in their means.


Here is the pledge of the Cut, Cap & Balance idea, brought to you by Congressmen Dan Benishek, R [MI-1].

THE PLEDGE

I pledge to urge my Senators and Member of the House of Representatives to oppose any debt limit increase unless all three of the following conditions have been met:

1. Cut - Substantial cuts in spending that will reduce the deficit next year and thereafter.
2. Cap - Enforceable spending caps that will put federal spending on a path to a balanced budget.
3. Balance - Congressional passage of a Balanced Budget Amendment to the U.S. Constitution -- but only if it includes both a spending limitation and a super-majority for raising taxes, in addition to balancing revenues and expenses.

The Amendment part of this pledge is a must for the future of our country.
It limits government to abuse and will ensure that we can pass down to our children and our children's, children, a country that we were born in to.


For America has a new video out to spread the word.
Will you?
Won't you?
Spread the Word, and sign the pledge?

Hypocrisy of a President

First, Monday morning of this past week began with a roar around here.
We got pounded with a storm so ferocious that it packed nearly 100 MPH winds that took down not only my telephone pole, along with power, but all the cable and phone lines with it also.
We got power restored Thursday and internet last night.
All in all, over 860,000 people were effected in my area.

OK on with opinion politics.
With all the political grandstanding this week in Washington over the debt ceiling negotiations, Obama makes a threat to take his view on how we are going to remedy the looming default deadline to the American people.
Today he made good on threat... However, its the same old same old crap he has been pushing since day one of his Presidency.

"Let's be honest. Neither party in this town is blameless, both have talked this problem to death without doing enough about it. That's what drives people nuts about Washington."

Now this would be true for the most part, however it's the Republican controlled House that has been pushing the Democrats to even talk about this problem that we have had for years now.
The problem is it was the left who refused to "Listen to the American peoples" concerns here. So NOW he wants to "Take it to the American people"?

"We are all part of the same country. We are all in this together."

Problem here was, up until Nov 2010 did the President want to even admit. It was Washington political elite and their supporters vs. We the People. 
But NOW 'We are all in this together?

"Nobody ever got everything they wanted, but eventually they worked together, they moved this country forward."

Does Obamacare pop in to your mind here? The American people didn't want it, but the Democrats 'got everything they [really] wanted'.


During this week, Obama and the Dems have called for a "Shared sacrifice" approach to debt reduction, claiming (in his words) that the wealthiest Americans need to pay their fair share and "A little more" vs being one sided through cutting entitlement, like Social Security payments, medicare and medicaid.


However that would not be the case.


First off, SS payments, medicare and medicaid would NOT be cut. The Republican plan would strip those entitlement programs of their "waste and abuse". Something the American people have been calling for, even before Obama showed up at the Whitehouse. 
So in essence making it solvent and sustainable without effecting recipients, at the same time cutting billions of dollars from the spending and debt.


During our power outage here, I had a chance to talk to a few of my elderly neighbors who brought this talking point up, as we sat outside and talked. Seems the MSM and the Dems have convinced them the cuts are real and they were very concerned about it. 
I had to set the record straight to reassure them that this was not the case to help ease their minds. They had enough stress going on with the prolong power outage. 


Second, the wealthiest have been making their sacrifice for years now, with paying almost twice (or more then twice) the amount of tax rates then the rest of us 'middle class' folks.


So now the Republicans want to make sure that in the future this does not happen again by preparing a balance budget amendment to the US Constitution. But Obama and the left refuse to even consider it.
So are they really concerned about getting our fiscal house in order and keeping it that way?


I think Senator Orrin Hatch said it best yesterday.

"The only reason this administration doesn't want a constitutional amendment is because they want to keep spending the American people's money. And the only reason congressional Democrats would refuse to pass it, is because they know the people of this country would rise up and quickly ratify it."

What is Wrong Here

I am truly perplexed at Boehner ability to fight the good fight.
As with the 2010 budget deal he worked out after taking the helm of the House from Pelosi, he appears to have no backbone to hammer out this deal, a REAL deal with the Democrat leadership in the Senate and the Whitehouse.

Now of course the liberals will come out on this and say that Pelosi was a better Speaker because she could get things done in a bipartisan manner.
Of course, they will fail to realize that what she got done during her time at the helm was all do that her party had total control of the government legislation.
WOW that  doesn't say much for her, either.

As reported in WoPo, Boehner is now NOT willing to cut a far reaching deal to trim our debt by $4T in a decade, because Obama is not willing to back down from his job killing, social engineering, wealth distribution tax hikes on those making more then $250K a year.

In Boehner words "Despite good-faith efforts to find common ground, the White House will not pursue a bigger debt reduction agreement without tax hikes,”

Well then Mr Speaker, stand you're ground.
We have less then a month before (as Geithner says) we hit the abyss of our debt limit.... And in a fight for our nations financial future.... YOU DON'T BLINK!

Boehner’s decision leaves negotiators reexamining a less-ambitious framework — aimed at saving roughly $2.4 trillion over the next decade.
-“We cannot ask the middle-class and seniors to bear all the burden of higher costs and budget cuts. We need a balanced approach that asks the very wealthiest and special interests to pay their fair share as well, and we believe the American people agree,” White House communications director Dan Pfeiffer said in a statement.-
WHAT BURDEN to the middle class on this deal?
The Democrat control House and Senate cut a deal last December on extending the Bush tax cuts for all and now they want to renege on it?
And pay their 'fair share' (wealthiest)? Paying over twice the amount the overwhelming majority of us pay (15%) is a crock-o-sh*t point of view by the left.

The problem with the Speaker is he doesn't know how to control the debate.
Please, Mr Speaker, do the right thing. Hold their feet to the fire, or Americans who want the government to get serious with our debt, will hold YOUR feet to the fire in 2012.

Obama's Townhall Twitter Crashers

 (Charles Dharapak/AP)

During Obama's 'Twitter Townhall' question and answer propaganda event, certain opponents, critical of Obama lack of true openness and leadership ability, jumped in to ask their own question. I guess cause they couldn't get their questions answered in DC.

Republican House Speaker John Boehner posted dozens of questions for Obama on his page.

"After embarking on a record spending binge that left us deeper in debt, where are the jobs?" Boehner asked.

Obama chuckled, and called Boehner's question "slightly skewed."

Through a spokesman, the Speaker fired back: "Where are the jobs?' isn't a 'skewed question' to the millions of Americans who lost jobs since President Obama's failed 'stimulus' spending binge began," 

Scores of other Republican members of Congress jumped in for the opportunity to post their own questions.

"Why do you refuse to reform entitlements?" asked Rep. Joe Walsh of Illinois. "They're on an unsustainable path & reform saves them AND cuts debt."

"House Republicans have passed a budget to lift the historic debt and put Hoosiers back to work #askobama about his budget," read Indiana Rep. Marlin Stutzman's

But the most impressive comment came from the US Chamber Of Commerce,   "Will you help businesses and free enterprise create #jobs by getting government out of the way?"

And Paul Ryan was sounding like a Presidential candidate with his, "Fearmongering won't solve our debt crisis. Americans deserve a real debate. You pick: when and where?" Ryan said.

Of course, Obama only responded to questions he thought he could answer.

Matthews:"This country risks becoming... Greece"

Wahhabis of American Government???

But Matthew would be right in his assertion that we risk becoming another Greece. For you see the very same political ideology that is running Greece these days is the same type of ideology Obama wants for America.

In 2009, Greece had the EU's second lowest Index of Economic Freedom (after Poland), ranking 81st in the world.

The 2009 budget deficit stood at 15.4% of GDP. This, and rising debt levels (127% of GDP in 2010) led to rising borrowing costs, resulting in a severe economic crisis.
Greece was accused of trying to cover up its massive budget deficit in the wake of the global financial crisis. This resulted from the massive revision of the 2009 budget deficit forecast by the new Socialist government elected in October 2009 went from "6-8%" to 12.7% and later revised to 15.4%. 
Between 2009 and 2011 unemployment skyrocketed, from 10.3% in 2009 to 16.2% in March 2011.
Income tax brackets in Greece for the year 2008 were 0% for up to 12,000 euros ($17,100) earned, 27% for 12,001 to 30,000 euros ($43,000) , 37% for 30,001 to 75,000 euros ($107,400) and 40% above 75,000 euros and those tax brackets, still to this day, remain at those levels.
With these high income tax rates, they still can't manage their debt, to bring it down! And now they intend to raise them again.
Corporate taxes Beginning in 2007, the rate of corporate tax is 25%. Starting in 2010 the corporate tax rate will fall 1% annually until it reaches 20% in 2015.
Greece has a VAT tax which is 4.5% to 23%. For all goods not belonging to any special category, the VAT is 23%
So you see, raising taxes, as the left and Matthews suggested doesn't work.

27% for those making $17,100 or above, to 40% making over $107,400 and a 16.2% unemployment rate, with a 127% of GDP debt (which we are fast approaching) will cause the very same problem here in America that we see in Greece, unless we change the path BACK to capitalism.
