I am sure by now that most of you have heard about the very inappropriate comment made by Mr. Obama last night on Jay Leno (might I also mention he is the first sitting president to ever appear on the show...). It had to do with his use of the White House bowling alley and his low scores. He then proceeded to compare those said low scores to those seen in the Special Olympics. My goodness... I had to share this with my mother who has worked with multiple handicapped persons for the last 12 years. I also mentioned to have her share this 'gaf' if one would call it such with all those in her profession who voted for said president.
Of course Team Obama has already said their apologies and made the point that Mr. Obama did not mean what he said. Well Barack, you might want to take your teleprompter with you next time!!!!

WND.com Bumper Sticker Magnet MUST HAVE!
I just got mine this weekend and it is proudly being displayed on the back of my car as I type. Note the measurements on the World Net Daily website...it truly is the largest bumper sticker available for this price! And remember, a magnet is the best because it does not damage the paint on your vehicle ;)

The new Obama propaganda for Recovery.gov
They just couldn't stop themselves, could they?! Of course not! So here is the symbol of Obama's 2012 campaign site, Recovery.gov:
But here is what it REALLY should look like (from Dave The Angry White Guy):
But here is what it REALLY should look like (from Dave The Angry White Guy):
"Going Galt" by Michelle Malkin
This article is too dead on right not to copy & paste right here. (Click here for link)
Enough. In a word, that is the message of disgusted taxpayers fed up with the confiscatory policies of both parties in Washington. George Bush pre-socialized the economy with billion-dollar bailouts of the financial and auto industries. Barack Obama is pouring billions more down those sinkholes. It isn't just the camel's back that's broken. His neck and four legs have all snapped, too.
Enough. Last Friday, thousands of Americans turned out to protest reckless government spending in the pork-laden stimulus package, the earmark-clogged budget bill, the massive mortgage-entitlement program and taxpayer-funded corporate rescues. Contrary to false left-wing blog smears that the hastily planned impromptu events were "Astro-turfed," the crowds were packed with first-time grassroots activists. They were people with families and day jobs whose usual definition of "community organizing" involves neighborhood yard sales or their kids' soccer matches. They were members of the silent majority who decided to be silent no more.
Enough. These "Tea Party" protests spanned the sunny Santa Monica pier to the icy streets of Chicago and Cleveland to rain-drenched Atlanta, overflowing the grounds of the St. Louis Gateway Arch, with massive turnouts in Greenville, S.C., and crowds of several hundred each in New York City and Washington, D.C., and all points in between. Like those who demonstrated before them in Seattle, Denver, Mesa, Ariz., and Overland Park, Kan., two weeks ago, the Tea Party participants held homemade signs that said it all: "Your mortgage is not my problem"; "Liberty: All the stimulus we need"; "No taxation without deliberation."
The speed and scope with which they mobilized were due not to nefarious outside conspiracists, but to social networking websites Facebook and Twitter, where a burgeoning network on Twitter called Top Conservatives became the central clearinghouse for information. Planning for a new wave of demonstrations on April 15 has begun at www.taxdayteaparty.com.
Enough. While they take to the streets politically, untold numbers of America's wealth producers are going on strike financially. Dr. Helen Smith, a Tennessee forensic psychologist and political blogger, dubbed the phenomenon "Going Galt" last fall. It's a reference to the famed Ayn Rand novel "Atlas Shrugged," in which protagonist John Galt leads the entrepreneurial class to cease productive activities in order to starve the government of revenue. (Not coincidentally, Rand's novel sales are up and John Galt references punctuated many of the Tea Party demonstrations.) Dr. Smith was inundated with stories like these:
"I have frozen hiring in my firm. … No investments will be made in taxable accounts -- only 401k/IRAs. I am buying silver and gold instead of CDs or stocks with non-qualified money and savings. I have stopped taking new clients, thus freezing my income. I barter more and more. Spend less. I stopped leveraging assets (don't borrow)."
"I have cut WAY back -- I'm no longer buying retail, driving out of a 10-mile radius, spending money on eating out or putting my money in a savings account. I am using the money to pay off all of our debt. It has made our family closer, more appreciative."
Another blogger wrote: "Last year my family paid nearly $1,000 a month in federal taxes, and we are not by any stretch of the imagination rich. I'm going to make it my business to cut that amount in half, using every legal means possible and reducing my income so there is less to tax."
Enough. Those business owners are not alone. This week, ABC News spotlighted upper-income earners going Galt in response to Obama's proposed tax hikes on families with incomes of $250,000 or more. A Lafayette, La., attorney told the reporter she was cutting back on her business to avoid the tax threshold: "Why kill yourself working if you're going to give it all away to people who aren't working as hard?" Tax hikes have consequences. Incentives matter. Only self-deluded wealth redistributors living in la-la land believe otherwise.
Another business owner, Dr. Sharon Poczatek, explained: "The motivation for a lot of people like me -- dentists, entrepreneurs, lawyers -- is that the more you work the more money you make," said Poczatek. "But if I'm going to be working just to give it back to the government -- it's de-motivating and demoralizing."
The perpetual Borrow-Spend-Panic-Repeat machine in Washington depends on the capitulation of the wealth producers. There's only one monkey wrench that can stop the redistributionist thieves' engine. It's engraved with the word: Enough.

Cartoon of the Day!
Sad that it took an already failing Obama/socialist presidency for the GOP to suddenly WAKE UP!
Capital has gone STRIKE!
They talk about autoworker unions or others that go on strike over pay disputes or benefits. But this time, as this article so clearly points out, it is the capital which drives the economy in America that has gone on strike in the 3 months since the election. (Read the article here) Businesses and individuals who have created many of the jobs in the last 20 years are now cutting wages and jobs in order to make it through this recession. Times are tough, no one would argue that, but the way that this unexperienced president and Congress is going about trying to 'solve' our problems is only bond to make these much, MUCH worse before they (ever?) get better. And this says it all:
"His stimulus package is little more than a down payment on a socialist economy. It raises taxes on the successful, brings back the welfare state, hands out favors and cash to friends of one political party, while imposing government control over the entire free market in ways that just a year ago would have seemed unimaginable."
These are very trying times for us as a country and as individuals. Do not let the American spirit die in the arms of this socialist agenda.
