| On November 6, 2012, almost 66 million Americans traded the nation´s future for a chance to worship a false god. In a country of over 315 million people, a minority of eligible voters traded prosperity for the illusion of forced fairness. In reelecting Barack Obama, with fewer votes than in 2008, voters traded harmony for the divisiveness of America´s most polarizing president. Woody Allen said, "eighty percent of success is just showing up." How true, because a little more than 20% of America has successfully forced upon the nation 4 more years of Barack the failure.

FTA: Barack Obama is the worst thing to ever happen to this nation, and most Americans support neither him nor his policies.
Barack Obama, redolent with the stench of false supremacy, is now convinced that he is the greatest man to have ever lived -- not too difficult a task, since he had always suspected as much anyway.
Every sentence and every paragraph is a gem. Finally someone has the courage to call a "spade a spade" - can I say that without being called a nasty name? Anyway, this is a great article and should be a Must Read - it just might get through to some morons.

Republicans share the blame in this for not being able to get working, tax paying, constitution respecting Americans to the polls in sufficient numbers. Racial minorities cast 28% of the votes while numbering 23% of the electorate. I am not a person of the white race but (believe) that is a recipe for national suicide.

As a Republican, I lay the blame on Republicans in elected office and those who stayed away from the polls.
Our elected leaders gave such weak support to Romney/ Ryan that many voters thought litttle of them. They could have saved us from the current OCCUPIOR OF THE OVAL OFFICE!

I wonder how many working people vote? They are exhausted from taking all the responsibilities. Others want that money and vote to get it. Maybe we need new vote at work voter capabilities and voter drives.

Just love that an article excoriates Obama and his voters and all the blame lands on the republicans.
Either this site has been invaded by people from another planet or we are going to get the government we so richly deserve in 2014.
Nancy Pelousy as leader and Reid will in charge of the senate. Unless that is, Reid is replaced by Menendez.
Just keep up the republican bashing. Seems to make many here quite thrilled.

It´s the immorality, stupid.
Taking from those who have earned and handing it to those who have not - the entire modus operandi of the Democrats and the root principle of socialism - is immoral, not just misguided or dumb. Immoral. Until Republicans get this and can convey it, in terms of morality, there is no hope. You cannot convey the immorality of the socialist ideology when you grant it "good intentions".
This is currently out of reach of the GOP, though, since it still stubbornly supports so many of the Democrats´ redistributionist programs.

To the culpability of our Republican leaders for luke warm support of Romney, add the Tea Parties. I had a go at the head of my Tea Party Patriots and got nowhere with her. They supported conservative Senators and Reps but sat on their hands as to Romnney.
To that add in the damage done by Newt Gingrich who had no way open to the nomination because he was not on the ballot in Virginia and in some counties in other states but who, despite having to know that (he´s not stupid though his followers were) would not get out of the way or shut up. I got a phone call from someone on his behalf yesterday and as soon as she identified herself I erupted with "Newt Gingrich! If it wasn´t for him we could have elected Romney!" and hung up. I am usually polite to everyone. I must be at the end of my patience.

Why the Republican bashing?? Obama is a disaster and we urgently need leaders to stop him and all the people in a position to obstruct this catastrophe are mute and paralyzed. The author of this article has done a great job of exposing Obama. There is little anyone could add to it and no hope of changing Obama. The only hope is to resurrect the opposition from the dead! Remember the Benghazi cover up and "investigation" . There is no opposition to the worst administration ever.

Come on #11, was it Newt that phoned in the last two debates after being so strong in the first? Did Newt tell the RNC that relying on an untested computer program on Election Day was a good idea? Was that Newt strolling arm-in-arm on the beaches of NJ, or was that Judas Chris Christie?
Blaming Newt because he put up a good fight in the primaries is fake, phony, fraudulent.

Does the dumbing-down of America have an expiration date? So far, thanks to its corrupt media, the answer seems to be No!
Has America’s GOP gone from grand old party to gutless obsequious pantywaists? Seems like it.
Did America set out to have a megalomaniacal president/commander-in-chief? Seems inconceivable. But, just look around. It’s the way things are.
What must an American do to get his or her country back when the time to ponder that question is rapidly running out?

He´s right, Obama needs to be ridiculed !! His raging, vindictive, unresolved psychological problems, and there are many, show us he cannot stand to be ridiculed, this arrogant would-be king. So, make it tough and funny and outrageous. Serious criticism will not work against the King and his Court made up of the supplicating Diane Sawyer, kiss ass TV media. This Gensert article is brilliant: ridicule the little king. Ridicule, ridicule, ridicule. He is psychologically weak and vulnerable. Go to the best professional analysis www.destructivepresident.com

It must be understood that a good many of "Republicans" in Congress have as their first priority is getting re-elected. EVERYTHING is secondary to that. As such, they become, over time, RINOS and Dim Lite. They like the idea of loading down various bills with earmarks because it proides federal dollars being spent in their own districts. And that makes the voters happy. Obozo has just taken this to a new high. Spread the dollars around to those who are expected to vote for him and belittle those who oppose him. And for good measure, do everything possible to destroy any and all opposition. And he has the best ally in the world. The media.

We have a REAL big problem when you learn that almost 20% of the registered Republicans who showed up to vote on Election Day, didn´t vote for Romney/Ryan. They may not all have voted for Obammy but many did (while some didn´t vote for Prez at all and some even went 3rd party) you realize that there is little to be hopeful about. I´ve had my Republican friends say that keeping their kids on their medical until 26 was something they liked. Many older Republicans wanted the handouts to continue and the unemployed ones wanted 99 weeks of unemployment insurance! Romney talked about everyone pulling their own weight but many in his party don´t like that idea --- and voted accordingly.
Right now, many Republicans are starting to sound like old Civil War vets who keep thinking the South will rise again! It won´t. 150 years ago, many held on to their Confederate money, thinking it would come back into style. It didn´t. There has been a sea change in the country and we can´t just lay it all at Obammy´s feet. "We have met the enemy ... and he is us!". We need a new strategy. Pronto.

I don´t understand the moaning of some about attacking "Republicans". The Republican Party is to blame because they´ve let in way too many Democrats. There is no other way (except for live boy/dead girl) to explain the actions of federal level elected Republicans. What I´m really fighting for is an opposition party to the Democrats - our country runs better with at least 2 parties in opposition to each other. What we have now is closer to the old Soviet Union.

Gotta admire Gensert’s pluck. His “I’m mad as hell and not going to take it anymore” vow is exactly the attitude the GOP needs to cultivate. However, even Gensert doesn’t fully get it.
Republicans always head into elections locked and loaded. They just never seem to know who to aim at. Newt, for all his flaws, painted the target for us during the primaries. And we continued shooting at decoys when we somehow managed to avoid shooting ourselves in the foot.
The GOP’s real high-value target is not the 66 million Americans who voted for Obama. It’s not even Obama himself. It’s the media—the so-call Fourth Estate—which has become a cabal of fawning sycophants in the service of liberalism.
Republicans stood and cheered Newt when he challenged liberal moderators and refused to back down. We applauded because Newt was actually fighting back against the real foes of conservatism—the ones we face election after election no matter who Democrats nominate for any particular office.
To level the playing field, Republicans have to mount and sustain a full-frontal assault on liberal media bootlickers, brown-nosers, suck-ups, lap-dogs, etc., not because they are incredibly annoying (they are), but because their continued dereliction of duty poses a grave danger to our Republic.
No candidate should be given a pass instead of a thorough vetting. No politician should be immune from criticism. No leader should be able to dodge hard questions.
The GOP should hire Newt to run a GOP boot camp to train Republicans how to deal with the media—including how to make the media itself the focus of stories—to hinder JournoList types from sending their carefully-scripted, coordinated talking points “halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get it’s pants on.”

I beleive there isn´t a hair difference in any of these politicians in DC. We just elected a Republican to replace our Dem Congressman. He promised to be conservative and fought all the Republicans running against him in the primary elections. Even name calling, dirty political tactics, lies, etc. As soon as he won in Nov he did a complete about face. In his first interview this month he was touting the fact that he was reaching across the aisle and his new best friend is Congressman Joe Kennedy. Now I know that he will not represent anything I stand for. Perhaps we are the morons.

What myopia. What short-lived memories.
How do you explain the massive crowds that turned out for Romney rallies in contrast to the abysmally low turnouts for Obama? Why did the DNC decide to move their convention to a site with far fewer seats?
Does no one remember the rampant VOTE FRAUD, such as the 141 percent ‘turnout’ in St. Lucie County, Florida? I bet Allen West remembers!
Similar population/registrant vs vote discrepancies took place in other states, particularly in the battleground states.
And how about those Philadelphia precincts voting 100 percent for Obama . . . after the Democrat polecats forcefully pushed the Republican poll watchers from the buildings?
And the Ohio voters who went to the polls . . . intending to vote . . . but were turned away because they were told they’d already voted?! I wonder how those Ohioans feel about this myopic blame-the-Republicans piece.
And the military votes? Did any of the ballots actually get to our military in time for their votes to count? Of those ballots that did, how many actually make it to the voter precincts here? Besides the more ‘common’ delays, why did a plane — that was transporting military votes — oh, so conveniently, crash?

We see lots of bashing of Republicans here.
If we had kept the House in GOP hands straight through... rather than the losses in 2006 and 2008... there would be no Obamacare passed.
Point fingers. Cast blame. And cut off your nose to spite your face.
A GOP House is better than a DimWitz House. A GOP Prez is better than a DimWitz Prez. A GOP Senate will be better than this DimWitz Senate we have.
The blame for Obamacare rests with those who "punished" the GOP House by losing it to the DimWitz for four years. Self-destructive self-righteousness.
Look in the mirror. Read it and weep. If the shoe fits...

ØDumbø´s weakest link was the healthcare debacle. But Romney merely mentioned it. In fact he said he would keep the good parts and fixed what needed to be fixed. I couldn´t believe it. What good parts? Plus Mittens spent a lot of time trying to convince people he was a nice guy. He should have been going after The Kenyan Nincompoop and pointed out that he is out to destroy America and us. At least the fly that attacked The Indonesian Imbecile knew what it was doing.

AS Mark Levin has so appropriately stated, America needs more, ´Paul & Paulette Reveres!´
Why NOW, after the USA has become THE authentic beacon of individual Liberty, Pursuit of Happiness & the resulting prosperity on the planet? The answer is evident: Americans who cherish Life Liberty must first ourselves understand the foundational principles which have kept the USA free in order for us to recognize the devious threat to that freedom which is currently being deemed by the dem´s counterfeit agenda which erodes Liberty as well as Life! Only then can, ´Paul & Paulette Revere,´ sound the alarm! (What is the GOP message?)
Apparently there are now too many who take freedom for granted because they have been taken in by the radical ´60s dems´ & their media´s socialist siren song, which always leads to tyranny on the rocks of brute force, as can be seen tragically & currently in other such BIG Governmental/top-down dictated countries!
Thus, ´educated,´ & primed by the conniving & devious dems´ counterfeit agenda, with reality & truth hidden by the dems´ media cult, some voters in the last election simply did not understand the peril to freedom which 0bama & the corrupted dem party´s statist policies are pushing our ship of state! With demonstrable disregard & disdain for the U.S. Constitution and their oaths of office, the conniving dem pols´ leadership would rather have Lady Liberty dashed upon the rocks of radical lefty/lib statism, just like all of history´s past central-planning fifedom failures, than this Republic to remain governed, ´´...of the people, by the people and for the people.´´
The self-engrandizing & self-enriching statist dems´ verbal, ´´message,´´ promises, ´pie in the sky,´ to their supporters but their policy actions result in just the opposite: more poverty, more dreams dashed, more corruption. ´´Pottersville,´´ personified.

Gensert gets it: "When we dare to stop caring how successful we look to people, caring people will dare to look at us as successful." Unfortunately, the GOP elites, with their CountryClub mores, don´t. "Go along to get along" is their philosophy, which is about as successful as the British wearing red coats and marching in straight lines.
Faced with the inefficacy of their group-think, GOP apologists continue their denial and can only blame conservatives for not being enthusiastic enough about their milquetoast candidate. They´re no better than the Democrats in assuming responsibility.
Who, indeed, are the morons?

I want an opposition party, not a stupid party. It’s been apparent for decades that the grandees of the Grand Old Party shy away from sustained confrontation against the media or the socialist democrats, and abandon any who try. It’s a tired and trite observation. We are expected to accept continued capitulation as the only consistent Republican political principle, and are blamed for the resulting failures because we point them out.
The Tea Party was a ready made grassroots movement that was placed in the lap of the Republican Party. You´d think they got dumped with an ice bucket, the way they jumped up and brushed us off their pants. If some Tea Party groups didn´t enthusiastically embrace Romney and the anointed GOP candidates, I hardly think they can be blamed for their own tepid response. We’re tired of the old excuses that the media is biased, or that the Republicans don’t have the votes so kicking the can down the road is another grand bi-partisan compromise that will set us up for a win next time
Why the lack of message? Why the lack of constant attack? Why the lack of basic political savvy? We never get answers to these questions. We only get berated for “bashing our own” and told that by “airing our dirty laundry” we are aiding and abetting our enemies. Treatment that is reminiscent of the socialists. Is it any wonder that many are beginning to conclude that the lack of message, the lack of fight, the lack of backbone is because the Republicans are just the “right” wing of the Big Government Party? What other rational explanation is there for the constant capitulation?

Excellent points by Posters 8, 11, 25 and 34 . If I might add the talkers on the right ( Limbaugh and Levin and Savage ) to the mix who bashed and bashed and bashed Romney for months- he´s a bum, he´s a RINO, he´s pro abortion, he´s a liberal, he´s not conservative, etc. All false charges designed to keep their audience agitated and their ratings up. They did the same with George W Bush and McCain and Dole before them. After the election , some self appointed Tea Party honcho wrote a column bragging about the hundreds of thousands of Evangelicals and Tea Partiers and Ron Paul supporters who stayed home rather than vote for the impure Romney. Or because they felt dissed somehow by the RNC . We apparently have many low information and self centered voters on the right who needed to be sweet talked or hand carried to the polls . The far right pouters helped elect Obama . It´s time the Republicans catered to common sense conservatives and paid less attention to the unrealistic and unhelpful demands of the far right and their talk radio counterparts.

Given that the Republicans have, just in the last two days, let Hillary and Kerry skate, how can anyone blame those of us who skewer them as useless?

Here´s one for you:
What is the difference between Obama & Putin? Obama wants higher taxes & Putin has a 15% flat tax.
Or to rile up the anti war cowering crowd:
Obama has a personal kill list for drone attacks... If you´re not on it today, maybe tomorrow!

In one of his more well-publicized gaffes, Vice President Biden said of John McCain: "Look, John´s last-minute economic plan does nothing to tackle the number-one job facing the middle class, and it happens to be, as Barack says, a three-letter word: jobs. J-O-B-S, jobs." Actually, of course, it´s a four-letter word, and it was his job and the president´s to create a climate for job expansion, and they failed. The evidence is now overwhelming: they have created the worst employment climate in decades.

When your article inspires a big-city mayor to refer your case to a "human-relations commission," you know you´ve hit a nerve. And when that article is the recent "Being White in Philly" piece by liberal Robert Huber, you know it doesn´t take much truth to hit that nerve. That´s the scary part. Huber´s article contains mostly tepid examples of whites´ negative experiences with blacks and primarily black neighborhoods, such as a Philadelphia resident whose grill was stolen from her backyard but "blames herself" for not fencing it in. Its tone is basically apologetic, absolving a drug dealer of responsibility

Speaker of the House of Representatives John Boehner (R-OH), on March 17, 2013, on ABC´s This Week, said that he "absolutely" trusts Obama. Boehner also said that he and Obama have a good relationship, and that they are "open with each other ... honest with each other." I know it sounds unbelievable, so watch this 22-second video. Where to start? Well, how about these specific examples of Dear Leader Barack Hussein Obama not being "absolutely" trustful? I´m sure AT readers can think of others.

That´s something to remember when you arrive there next week. Israel has a government, elected by its people in a free, fair, open and democratic election. Multiple parties representing widely divergent points of view met a wildly diverse electorate through free media and open debate. This is no stultified two-party affair with a libertarian insurgency. Israel will be the only country you visit in the region, this time or any other, that has a fully democratic system. Do not be swayed by the "apartheid" slander. Citizens of Israel are Jews, Moslems, Christians, and Druze, each with religious and non-religious elements.

Prodded by a president with a weakness for racial agitation and enabled by a politically complicit media, the State of Florida persists in a prosecution that can come to no good end. The defendant is neighborhood watch captain George Zimmerman. The charge is the second-degree murder. The potential outcomes range from major injustice, if Zimmerman is convicted, to mayhem in the streets, if he´s acquitted. And the state plods on as though the angels were on its side. They are not. The witnesses to the February 2012 shooting of 17 year-old Trayvon Martin are proving even more troublesome

The political world changed its orbit Wednesday as Rand Paul seized the spotlight in his March 6 filibuster. Rand Paul -- not this author´s favorite before -- is probably now the 2016 front-runner for president. But the difference results from fundamental changes in substance. How can one day be that big of a deal? Because Rand Paul demonstrated a reproducible, winning formula. It was as if Ronald Reagan were granted just one day to come back to Earth to remind the Party of Lincoln of "how it´s done." Rand demonstrated a repeatable formula that all Republicans can copy.

Sixty-three months ago Barack Obama officially declared his candidacy for President. Only now are some among the so-called media and ruling elites in America slowly awakening from their self-induced infatuation and beginning to understand who he is. It has become difficult to ignore the overt intimidation, demagoguery and deliberate falsehoods spewed forth by Obama relative to sequestration -- a miniscule cut in the growth of federal spending. However, any cursory examination of his past reveals that these tactics are second nature to the man who currently occupies the Oval Office.

Years ago, when I used to play poker with some guys, I played a hand in which across the table from me was someone who looked as though he had a straight flush. He kept pumping up the bidding and everyone folded but me. When we finally showed our hands he had nothing. "You don´t know what you´re doing," he yelled. "Any good player would have folded! Why did you stay in?" he shouted angrily. "Because you curled your lip and reacted furiously when I stayed in. Someone with a winning hand would never do that."

By law, on Friday the executive must begin to cut $85 billion from federal spending. Though, as is his wont, the president is blaming the Republicans for what he claims is a draconian measure. No less a Washington chronicler of events than Bob Woodward of the Washington Post considers that a gross distortion of the truth [T]he automatic spending cuts were initiated by the White House and were the brainchild of [Treasury Secretary nominee Jack] Lew and White House congressional relations chief Rob Nabors -- probably the foremost experts on budget issues in the senior ranks of the federal government.

Too little serious conservative analysis of the 2012 presidential campaign has yet appeared. This is understandable. The results of the election were disheartening to the point of shock. The campaign defied all historical precedent, all commonsense interpretation. The Romney ticket should not have lost and did not deserve to lose. The Democrats, fielding the least worthy ticket in the past century -- and that´s saying something -- did not deserve to win. The reasons they did are myriad and complex. But before we get too far down the road, there is one lesson that has to be grasped:

No, I´m not talking about Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon, and Michael (God rest Michael´s tortured soul). I´m talking about the Chicago Jacksons, Jesse Sr. and Jesse Jr. The Jackson 5 in their heyday gave plenty: music, entertainment, and joy to their fans. The Chicago Jacksons are another story. Jesse Sr. (The Right Reverend) and his son (the erstwhile congressman) have done a lot more taking than giving. "Taking" may be too charitable a word. Shaking down and wheedling may be better descriptors for the Chicago Jacksons´ acts.

By now you likely have heard that Chris Rock considers Barack Obama America´s father. If that is true, then would somebody call Child Protective Services and find us foster parents! For Chris Rock, America´s true Founding Fathers were disappointingly white. I suspect that whatever the color of America´s Founding Fathers might have been, they would not have approved of having a failure like Obama among their esteemed membership. Thought the Founding Fathers had many flaws, they were smart enough to eliminate the self-indulgent institution of slavery from America´s future.

Michelle Obama has admitted that she is already tired of the bangs she first sported in January. The First Lady said in an interview with Entertainment Tonight: ´Bangs are a day-by-day proposition. They´re starting to grow out, get a little irritating.´ Still, she hasn´t let her hairdo woes get her down. ´It´s okay,´ she said after her initial complaint. ´We´ll be good.´ The first indication that her hairstyle was becoming a burden came about last weekend, when Malia, 14, was spotted adjusting her mother´s hair during the White House Easter Egg Roll.

Sen. John McCain says he doesn´t understand the threats from some of his Republican colleagues to filibuster a bill on background checks to buy guns. "I don´t understand it," the Arizona Republican said on Sunday of the threat coming from Sen. Rand Paul,Sen. Ted Cruz, Sen. Mike Lee and nine other Republicans. "The purpose of the United States Senate is to debate and to vote and to let the people know where we stand.” "What are we afraid of? ... If this issue is as important as we all think it is, why not take ... it up and debate?"

President Obama´s biggest gaffe yesterday when speaking of California Attorney General Kamala Harris was not in flirtatiously complimenting her as "the best-looking attorney general," but in introducing an observation from the system of beauty into a forum that was about the system of power.What´s that, you say? Irin Carmon does a great job in Salon in laying out the bounds of propriety for when it´s appropriate to talk about a woman´s looks as a general matter. But I´ve long felt we lack a solid theoretical underpinning for easily discussing these issues, and why precisely it is that

Recent research indicates that the number of people who do not consider themselves a part of an organized religion is steadily on the rise. Interestingly enough, though the number of those religiously unaffiliated is increasing, there is little to no trend in the number of those who express atheist or agnostic beliefs. People aren’t saying they don’t believe in God. They’re saying they don’t believe in religion. They are not rejecting Christ. They are rejecting the church. This begs the question, “Why are we losing our religion?”

Los Angeles — Some people have had it with TV. They´ve had enough of the 100-plus channel universe. They don´t like timing their lives around network show schedules. They´re tired of $100-plus monthly bills. A growing number of them have stopped paying for cable and satellite TV service, and don´t even use an antenna to get free signals over the air. (Snip) Last month, the Nielsen Co. started labeling people in this group "Zero TV" households, because they fall outside the traditional definition of a TV home. There are 5 million of these residences in the U.S., up from

On Friday, Sean Hannity brought Pat Smith, mother of the late Sean Smith, on his radio program. The 34-year-old information management officer was one of four Americans murdered in the Benghazi embassy attack on September 11, 2012. In the chilling interview, a distraught Ms. Smith, in tears, pleaded for answers and spoke of the efforts to silence her. Ms. Smith first relayed how her son, prior to the attack, requested additional security in advance and warned the State Department: He did tell them, ahead of time, he typed it into his little typewriter over there,

Put out an all-points bulletin: Millions of Americans have gone missing from the workforce. Every month that those would-be workers are gone raises the odds that they might never come back, dimming the prospects for future economic growth. The vanishing trend is more than a decade old, but it accelerated during the Great Recession. Throughout 2012, economists held out hope that it had stopped. But then came Friday’s jobs report, and hopes were dashed. The Labor Department reported that the U.S. labor force — everyone who has a job or is looking for one — shrank

No one is more preoccupied these days with Hillary Clinton´s 2016 plans than the Beltway political class—not even the former presidential candidate herself. To hear some tell it, her decision will be dispositive for all other Democrats thinking of entering the race. And pundits and reporters aren´t the only ones positing the "The Hillary Factor": No less than the House Democratic whip, Steny Hoyer, told BuzzFeed, “I don´t know that anybody would run against Hillary…. If she runs, she clears the field.” It´s an understandable conclusion, given Clinton´s stature in the Democratic Party and her 70 percent

I hope all will look at a lifetime of service over some poorly chosen words.” Carson will remain as commencement speaker at Johns Hopkins,

But really she’s something much more interesting: a traitor to her class. Her betrayal consists of being gauche enough to acknowledge publicly a truth that everyone who’s come up through Ivy League culture knows intuitively —
