Thoughts On Obama From Bama
Week 168: “The Buffett Rule”
You gotta play by kinja rules Forget about that civics course you learned in school God watches out for drunks and fools But forget the ten commandments here
Kinja rules, Kinja rules, Kinja rules, Kinja rules Kinja Rules, Jimmy Buffett
Our Fair Share, Fair Shake, Fair Enough, Fair to Midland, No Fair-in-Chief is out on his tax payer funded reelection campaign, standing right on up behind his presidential podium just as if he had good sense, promoting his boneheaded policy known as the Buffett Rule again. An absolutely joke and sham of a tax policy named after seriously misguided left wing head case multi-billionaire investor Warren Buffett.
Obama’s Socialist regime is renewing their call for Congress to raise taxes on millionaires, a cornerstone of the class warfare campaign strategy the Change Gang is unleashing on the American people. A flim flam shell game diversion whining about the false assumption that wealthy investors pay lower taxes rates than middle-class wage earners highlighted by the President’s misleading and technically inaccurate claim that Mr. Buffett’s secretary pays at a higher rate than her infamous Yankee rich boss.
Obama's team has made the Buffett rule a key part of its message, saying it shows clear differences with the GOP who rightly point out the plan would raise taxes on small businesses greatly hindering the engine for sustained job growth and economic recovery. Republicans have also correctly noted that Obama's proposal would only generate $47 billion in additional revenues through 2022, a mere 4.7 billion a year. Hardly enough to cover the president’s annual golf expenses and the GSA’s Vegas conventions.
President Obama is specifically proposing that people earning at least $1 million annually, whether in salary or investments should pay at least 30 percent of their income in tax. Investment income is currently taxed at 15 percent allowing many wealthy investors to pay a smaller percentage of their income in taxes. The top rate for taxpayers with high incomes derived from wages in comparison is 35%.
White House propagandist said in a report released ahead of Obama's speech in Florida this week that the tax proposal would restore fairness to the system, pointing to 22,000 households earning more than $1 million annually that paid less than 15 percent of their income in income taxes in 2009. What they fail to mention:
1. Income from investments has already been taxed at least once at higher rates
2. The Fed could confiscate every last dime of these poor pilgrim’s annual income and it wouldn’t even make a frog’s hair worth of a dent in our wildly out of control deficits and debt
3. Mr. Buffett’s secretary pulls in about a half million a year in wages including what she gets paid from her part time job with the GSA
4. This is a classic Marxist/Socialist political tactic that would make the likes of Chavez, Mao and Castro proud
5. With all due respect Mr. Buffett he is more than welcome to take his happy ass down to DC anytime and drop off a check made out to the US Treasury for as many billions he finds fittin with his good friend Barack anytime he’s feeling froggy
Now, truth be told, we’d be tickled pink if the president got a Buffett Rule passed, but one based on Jimmy and not Warren. A rule based on the positions of the greatest and most astute philosopher, poet and escapism advocate of our time would sure enough enhance each and every one of our Constitutional mandate to pursue happiness with the passion of a son of sailor, a man gone to Paris and/or a simple cheeseburger in paradise.
Our Buffett Rule is simple, easy to stay on message and has multiple options to choose from that won’t require anyone to pay Uncle Sammy one cent more in taxes. Following is a list of options that unlike Warren’s are all abundantly more fair, based on true American values and predicated on free market principles:
• Anything, Anytime, Anywhere
• A Lot To Drink About
• A Pirate Looks At 40
• Breathe In, Breathe Out, Move On
• Changes In Latitudes, Changes In Attitudes
• Fruitcakes
• Grapefruit-juicy Fruit
• Growing Older But Not up
Havana Daydreamin'
• He Went To Paris
• If The Phone Doesn't Ring, It's Me
• It's Five O'clock Somewhere
• I Don't Know And I Don't Care
• Manana
• Margaritaville
• Off To See The Lizard
• Stars Fell On Alabama
• Tampico Trauma
• The Weather Is Here, Wish You Were Beautiful
• The Wino and i know
• What If The Hokey-pokey Is All It Really Is About?
• Why Don't We Get Drunk And Screw
President Obama’s Warren Buffett Rule won’t create one job, enhance economic growth or pay down a penny of the national debt. Mr. Romney needs to propose a Jimmy Buffett Rule, proclaim its five o’clock somewhere, invite us all to Margaritaville to see the lizard and watch a few stars fall on Alabama.
A bold and aggressive move that would certainly give the Obama campaign a lot to drink about as they contemplate a loss of historic proportions in November.

Thoughts On Obama From Bama
Week 167: “Obama’s All of the Above Energy Strategy”
I pulled into the regular pump I was feelin' quite at ease
rolled down my window and told the man, ;fifty cents worth please
Then out jumped my partner with his trusty pellet gun
He said boy this is a holdup, keep 'a pumpin' and don't run
We got fifteen dollars and a can of stp
A big ol' jar of cashew nuts and a Japanese TV
Feelin' we had pulled the biggest heist of our career
We're wanted men, we'll strike again But first let's have a beer
We were sittin' in the Krystal About as drunk as we could be
In walks the deputy sheriff And he's holdin' our TV
Roughed us then he cuffed us
And he took us off to jail No pictures on a poster, no reward and no bail
And now I wish I was somewhere other than here
Down in some honky tonk, sippin' on a beer
Yes I wish I was somewhere other than here'
cause that great fillin' station holdup Cost me two good years
Yes that great fillin' station holdupIt cost me two good years Great Fillin Station Holdupt, Jimmy Buffett
Any poor dumb pilgrim that believes our Roughneck-in-Chief is genuinely advocating an All of the Above energy strategy is sure enough crazier than an outhouse rat. No sir, no way, no how. The man is a green energy; save the flat speckled bellied flat land lizard; eco-Nazi; radical tree humping extremist who equates fossil fuels with free market capitalism and despises both with Marxist/Socialist fanaticism.
Truth be told American coal and oil industries are pillars of this country’s global economic dominance representing the best of U.S. ingenuity, innovation, perseverance and successful free market capitalism. Even with all the negative aspects of these industries, pollution; greed; environmental adversity; and exploitation, the positive benefits derived are more abundant than white on rice.
For a president of this country to demonize, lie about and criminalize these industries is shameful, anti-business, totally misleading and detrimental to establishing U.S. energy independence and our economic vitality. Consider the following stats about the U.S. oil and gas industry:
• Ownership - 9%, corporate management and institutional. 91% pensions, mutual funds, IRA’S AND 401K’s
• Profit margins – 6.7% compared to 9.2% for overall manufacturing industry
• 2 Trillion in US capital investment since 2000
• Effective tax rate – 41% compared to 26% for overall manufacturing
• 85 Million a day paid in taxes, fees and royalties
• 500 Billion in profits, 400 Billion paid in income taxes last 5 years
• Over 9 Million jobs industry wide
President Obama’s bad mouthing of such a vital US industry is downright un-American. His proposal to end their tax subsidies, the same subsidies all manufacturing companies currently receive, is nothing more than sanctimonious class warfare.
Such a boneheaded move would also adversely impact a lot of good folks 401K’s and actually raise the price to fill up our tanks even more. Which, unbelievably, is precisely what the Obama Administration’s energy policy is designed to do.
In hindsight none of this should come as a surprise or world shaking great new revolation. Prior to his media elite supported myths and lies got him elected to the highest office in the land our future president repeatedly proclaimed openly and without shame his advocacy for raising energy prices to European levels.
According to our Tree Humper-in-Chief this is the only way to cure our global warming addiction to those Satan fossil fuels. Don’t seem to matter to these green energy extremist that their ecofriendly alternatives won’t be ready for primetime for at least another 30-50 years.
Now that we know his real agenda it’s right easy to extrapolate Obama’s true, not for public consumption, All of the Above, radical extremist, stop manmade global warming, energy strategy. Following is a brief listing of this economic train wreck in waiting and fiscal calamity of Koranic proportions:
• Raise the price at the pump to 9-10 dollars a gallon
• Kill U.S Coal industry with implementation of oppressive EPA regulations
• Backdoor Cap and Tax/Trade with oppressive EPA intrusions
• Tax oil, coal and gas industries out of business
• Force mass transit down U.S. traveling public collective throats
• Outlaw gas guzzling nonconforming vehicles
• Subsidize foreign exploration and drilling while drastically cutting domestic production
Mr. Obama has gained a pretty strong toe hold on All of the Above during his first term of office. Given a second he’s more likely than not to keep at least one of his promises to fundamentally transform America as we know it.
Totally energy dependent on foreign sources and a second rate fiscally unstable Marxist/Socialist nanny state. Sure enough would be a truly amazing dismantling of the world’s greatest free market capitalist economy in 8 short years.

Thoughts On Obama From Bama
Week 166: “My Last Election”
We shot the breeze for hours
As the sun fell from the sky And like the sun he disappeared before Before my very eyes
It was somewhere past dark-thirty
As we went back to the head
I read upon the dingy wall
The words the old man said
He said, "I ate the last mango in Paris
Took the last plane out of Saigon
I took the first fast boat to China
And Jimmy, there's still so much to be done
Jimmy Buffett, Last Mango in Paris
Why do liberals, as a general rule of thumb, hide their true feelings and deeply held beliefs tighter than a tick in their seemingly never ending efforts to deceive “We the People”? Sure enough might be their justifiable concern that if exposed we’d probably put a bounty on their happy asses and hang um all for treason, metaphorically speaking of course.
Our Deceiver-in-Chief certainly ain’t an exception to this intentional left wing deception. Truth be told if it weren’t for the occasional open mic or off the cuff stray from the teleprompter comment Mr. Obama’s Marxist/Socialist dreams of grandeur would seldom be revealed to all of us poor dumb pilgrims not privy to the man’s genuine view of the world.
President Obama’s most recent private remarks that were overheard publically occurred during a conversation with outgoing Ruskie President Medvedev during a summit of world leaders in Seoul last week. Following is a recap of their sure enough most revealing and remarkable exchange:
• President Obama: “On all these issues, but particularly missile defense, this, this can be solved but it’s important for him to give me space.”
• President Medvedev: “Yeah, I understand. I understand your message about space. Space for you…”
• President Obama: “This is my last election. After my election I have more flexibility.”
• President Medvedev: “I understand. I will transmit this information to Vladimir.”
Before we review the implications of this conversation backwards and forwards it might be helpful to discuss a few of Mr Obama’s other unfiltered/open mic/ off the cuff/ almost never heard honest expressions of his true feelings to put these remarks in their proper perspective. Consider the following:
• “…cling to their guns and bibles…“, his now infamous comments referring to working class, blue collar, and mostly rural folks made during the 2008 campaign. Sure enough captures the arrogance, elitism, and disdain the president has for the folks he has been elected to serve but in his way of reckoning rule over
• “The Cambridge Police acted stupidly…”, his response to his old friend Harvard Professor Gate’s arrest not knowing any of the facts surrounding the case but making unfounded charges of racism demonstrating a reckless demagoguery worthy of his comrades the good Reverends Jackson and Sharpton
• “…we got to spread the wealth man…“, revealing his true socialist colors to Joe the Plumber during the 2008 campaign. A policy he has had great success implementing during his first 166 weeks in office with his comrades in the labor unions and victim class being the primary beneficiaries
• The derogatory comments he and fellow socialist French President Sarkozy made about our alleged good friend and their Israeli counterpart Netanyahu, "I can't stand him,” the French president was overheard saying, “He's a liar". "You’re fed up with him,” Obama replied. “But I have to work with him every day”. Kind of explains why Mr. Obama has treated Netanyahu like a red headed stepchild since day one and the Palenstians as favored victim status
Ain’t no never mind about it the only time we can believe our Can’t Believe a Word He Says-in-Chief Is when we catch him in a private conservation never meant for public consumption. This latest revelation with his Bolshevik comrades is alarming, disturbing and truly a rare glimpse at his tyrannical, Marxist/socialist, narcissistic hankerings.
Consider the following implications and ramifications of this extraordinary exchange between the leader of the free world and the president of the Evil Empire:
• The operative phrase is “last election” having untold and dangerous implications
• unbridled power
• total lack of accountability
• blatant disregard for constitutional authority
• even a more radical abuse of power
• unprecedented centralization and consolidation of federal power
• a major shift towards an imperial, tyrannical presidency
• expansion of Obama Doctrine – bend over, grab our ankles, thank you sir may I have another foreign policy
• appeasement to the Ruskies by reducing our missile defenses without any concessions from Ivan
• unilateral nuclear reductions designed to lose superiority and achieve equality with our adversaries
• the continued intentional increases in oil, natural gas, and coal prices to force a shift to more expensive and less efficient green energy
• continued and more aggressive implementation of socialist policy initiatives by Executive Orders and Fiat
• secular progressive policies running amuck trampling religious freedom
• stealth gun control measures designed to restrict and regulate fire arms with the ultimate objective of outlawing private gun ownership
• open marriage laws further weakening the family unit and traditional values this country was built on
• this city is headed for a disaster of biblical proportions. What he means is Old Testament, Mr. Mayor, real wrath-of-God type stuff! Exactly. Fire and brimstone coming down from the sky! Rivers and seas boiling! Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes! The dead rising from the grave! Human sacrifice! Dogs and cats, living together! Mass hysteria!
Bottom line, we give the Obama Socialist Regime a 2cd term with no concerns about the consequences of their actions impacting reelection this country will experience a radical transformation of biblical proportions. We caught him red handed telling his Ruskie comrades and there is no telling what else he has shared with other world leaders behind closed doors.
Let’s all hope Mr. Obama’s last election fails miserably. Just the thought of an unbridled, unrestrained 2cd term for the change gang is enough to make a grown man cry, a preacher cuss, and sure enough scare a dog off a meat wagon.

Thoughts On Obama From Bama
Week 165: “The Road We Traveled”
Lace your shoes with country blues Ramble down that dusty ole road
Take your money down in the town
Gonna get rich in the game
Come on home drunk at day break
You got no room to complain
The pot can't call the kettle black
Cause the train's all runnin' on the same ole track
Can't feel nothing but your life flyin' by
You got trouble on your hands, trouble on your mind
What in the world can a poor boy do
But let his ole ramblin' roll
The Pot Can't Call the Kettle Black, Jerry Jeff Walker
Got ourselves a big ole bag of buttered popcorn, a ten pound Nestlé’s Crunch Bar, an ice cold oversized Coke, and settled back in our genuine nogahide lazyboys to watch the latest Hollywood hit, a little diddy titled “The Road We Traveled”. A seventeen minute ho-ax of a documentary about the Obama Administration’s alleged historical and wildly successful first term in office.
Instead we should of brought a barf bag; nose plugs to avoid the stench from all the BS; our best pair of manly footwear to wade through the piles of horse manure; a big box of tissue to wipe away the tears from the prolonged hysterical gut wrenching laughter; and a bottle of Beam to help keep it all in perspective. As for referring to this classic piece of propaganda as a documentary, narrated by Forrest, Forrest Gump, it ranks right on up there with the Wizard of Oz and Lord of the Rings as one of the greatest fictional fantasy thrillers of all time.
At least we now know how they plan to frame their argument for the general election in addition to their paint the GOP candidate as the anti-Christ/Hitler/Black Beard incarnate campaign strategy. Following are the highlights from one of the finest examples of socialist propaganda ever created that would sure enough make the likes of Stalin, Castro, and Mao proud:
“The Road We Traveled”
• Unexpected – Our fairytale begins with the narrator, run Forrest run, whining about how the depth and severity of our economic woes was so unexpected. Completely out of right field; didn’t have a clue; caught totally off guard; no way of knowing. Of course this is revisionist history in all its glory as the Change Gang was fully briefed on every detail and W had already initiated the TARP program several months before this group infested the White House.
• Worse Situation and Most Difficult Decisions Since FDR Was in Office – Really, no really. Reckon the decisions made by JFK about avoiding nuclear war with the Ruskies; LBJ and Nixon’s Vietnam deliberations; Reagan’s winning of the Cold War; W’s response to 9/11; Truman’s decision to drop A Bombs, one of the most consequential decisions in the history of mankind; paled in comparison to Obama’s problems. Truly, what an arrogant bunch of boneheads
• Blameless – During the most shameful part of the flick our narrator, “Stupid is as stupid does, Forrest”, declares openly and without shame that this Administration stoically blamed no one for their dyer predicament and just moved on with undeterred deliberation to confront our great challenges. Even their most fervent supporters got a chuckle about this unadulterated balderdash. This bunch raised the blame game to new and unprecedented levels. W being their favorite whipping boy along with everything from the Tea Party to ATM’s
• Recovery Act – The trillion dollar stimulus or most massive redistribution of wealth in the history of the world. They claimed it saved and/or created millions of jobs. Considering we have been north of 8 percent unemployment for almost 40 months that dog just won’t hunt.
• Auto Bailout – Proudly claimed they saved not only auto industry but also US manufacturing industry. In reality screwed auto company bond holders and paid off his comrades at the UAW
• Healthcare – A man who would exploit his Momma for political expediency at worth a bucket of warm spit. Obama makes claims in this fairytale that his Momma died from cancer cause she didn’t have insurance. Turns out this is a wild fabrication. Only a low life Yankee lawyer would lie about his Momma to advance a political agenda
• Iraq War – According to the movie Obama ended the war as promised. Failed to mention W already set the schedule, the liberation of 50 million folks, the establishment of a democracy in the center of the Middle East or victory. Another example of our Wimp-in-Chief at his pacifist best
• Osama Bin Laden – Sure enough the right call but the most audacially bold military leadership since D Day as portrayed in the fairytale is a joke. All things considered really a no brainer. The real questions are why did it take 8 months to pull the trigger and why didn’t we secretly bring him back alive for the high value intelligence and to womp the hell out of him daily
• Green Energy – The president is portrayed as the green energy guru saving the galaxies from the demon fossil fuels. No mention of the billions he has lost in political pay offs to Solindra and other eco-Nazi campaign contributors
• Dodd / Frank – Hailed as saving the middle class from the greedy, corrupt, bank executives. As for Dodd and Frank taking bribes and all manner of special favors from said corrupt bank execs must have been edited out at last minute
• Changed World’s View of US – The propaganda flick tells a story of Obama, an equal with all other world leaders, positioning our great nation to be loved by all. Maybe loved but respected, trusted, feared and admired by few and far between under his weak leadership
• Supreme Court Justices – Forrest, run Forrest run, tells us of two brilliant legal minds appointed to the court. The fact they are both radical left wing feminist extremist who will not hesitate to legislate from the bench didn’t make the cut
• Don’t Ask Don’t Tell – The last great accomplishment highlighted in the movie was the president’s decision to let gays serve openly in the military. Touted as a great victory for advancing civil rights there was no mention of how this policy change enhances combat readiness, unit cohesion and/or national security. Certainly no reason to let the military’s primary mission get in the way of some left wing social engineering
All in all this fantasy thriller is a typical Obama Administration production. Chalk full of lies, arrogant disregard of reality, and classic propaganda tactics designed to advance a false message the truth be damned.
We do have one suggestion. Instead of “The Road We Traveled” how about “Rode Hard and Put Up Wet”. After 165 weeks of Obama a sentiment we can all certainly appreciate.

At least we now know how they plan to frame their argument for the general election in addition to their paint the GOP candidate as the anti-Christ/Hitler/Black Beard incarnate campaign strategy. Following are the highlights from one of the finest examples of socialist propaganda ever created that would sure enough make the likes of Stalin, Castro, and Mao proud:
“The Road We Traveled”
• Unexpected – Our fairytale begins with the narrator, run Forrest run, whining about how the depth and severity of our economic woes was so unexpected. Completely out of right field; didn’t have a clue; caught totally off guard; no way of knowing. Of course this is revisionist history in all its glory as the Change Gang was fully briefed on every detail and W had already initiated the TARP program several months before this group infested the White House.
• Worse Situation and Most Difficult Decisions Since FDR Was in Office – Really, no really. Reckon the decisions made by JFK about avoiding nuclear war with the Ruskies; LBJ and Nixon’s Vietnam deliberations; Reagan’s winning of the Cold War; W’s response to 9/11; Truman’s decision to drop A Bombs, one of the most consequential decisions in the history of mankind; paled in comparison to Obama’s problems. Truly, what an arrogant bunch of boneheads
• Blameless – During the most shameful part of the flick our narrator, “Stupid is as stupid does, Forrest”, declares openly and without shame that this Administration stoically blamed no one for their dyer predicament and just moved on with undeterred deliberation to confront our great challenges. Even their most fervent supporters got a chuckle about this unadulterated balderdash. This bunch raised the blame game to new and unprecedented levels. W being their favorite whipping boy along with everything from the Tea Party to ATM’s
• Recovery Act – The trillion dollar stimulus or most massive redistribution of wealth in the history of the world. They claimed it saved and/or created millions of jobs. Considering we have been north of 8 percent unemployment for almost 40 months that dog just won’t hunt.
• Auto Bailout – Proudly claimed they saved not only auto industry but also US manufacturing industry. In reality screwed auto company bond holders and paid off his comrades at the UAW
• Healthcare – A man who would exploit his Momma for political expediency at worth a bucket of warm spit. Obama makes claims in this fairytale that his Momma died from cancer cause she didn’t have insurance. Turns out this is a wild fabrication. Only a low life Yankee lawyer would lie about his Momma to advance a political agenda
• Iraq War – According to the movie Obama ended the war as promised. Failed to mention W already set the schedule, the liberation of 50 million folks, the establishment of a democracy in the center of the Middle East or victory. Another example of our Wimp-in-Chief at his pacifist best
• Osama Bin Laden – Sure enough the right call but the most audacially bold military leadership since D Day as portrayed in the fairytale is a joke. All things considered really a no brainer. The real questions are why did it take 8 months to pull the trigger and why didn’t we secretly bring him back alive for the high value intelligence and to womp the hell out of him daily
• Green Energy – The president is portrayed as the green energy guru saving the galaxies from the demon fossil fuels. No mention of the billions he has lost in political pay offs to Solindra and other eco-Nazi campaign contributors
• Dodd / Frank – Hailed as saving the middle class from the greedy, corrupt, bank executives. As for Dodd and Frank taking bribes and all manner of special favors from said corrupt bank execs must have been edited out at last minute
• Changed World’s View of US – The propaganda flick tells a story of Obama, an equal with all other world leaders, positioning our great nation to be loved by all. Maybe loved but respected, trusted, feared and admired by few and far between under his weak leadership
• Supreme Court Justices – Forrest, run Forrest run, tells us of two brilliant legal minds appointed to the court. The fact they are both radical left wing feminist extremist who will not hesitate to legislate from the bench didn’t make the cut
• Don’t Ask Don’t Tell – The last great accomplishment highlighted in the movie was the president’s decision to let gays serve openly in the military. Touted as a great victory for advancing civil rights there was no mention of how this policy change enhances combat readiness, unit cohesion and/or national security. Certainly no reason to let the military’s primary mission get in the way of some left wing social engineering
All in all this fantasy thriller is a typical Obama Administration production. Chalk full of lies, arrogant disregard of reality, and classic propaganda tactics designed to advance a false message the truth be damned.
We do have one suggestion. Instead of “The Road We Traveled” how about “Rode Hard and Put Up Wet”. After 165 weeks of Obama a sentiment we can all certainly appreciate.

Thoughts On Obama From Bama
Week 164: Perception is Reality – My Happy White Skinny Ass
Thank God the tiki bar is open
Thank God the tiki torch still shines
Thank God the tiki bar is open
Come on in and open up your mind
On a leave of absence
With no resemblance to reality
I felt like a rocket launched into the wild blue yonder
By the boys down at Kennedy.
Checked into His Majesty's Court Hotel
Where the sign said 'praise his name'
I was tired and alone I didn't feel too well
But I don't think that he was to blame
The Tiki Bar Is Open, Jimmy Buffett
Remember Hillary’s paranoid delusions of some mythical vast right wing conspiracy that was ruthlessly and unfairly ruining the Clinton presidency. It weren’t as much as a bona fide conspiracy but more of a critical mass of illegal and sordid conduct that was so overwhelming even their adoring dominions in the left wing media elite finally had to report on their abuses of power; felonies; Saturday Night Bill’s repeated sexual assaults and stepping out on Hillary; scandalous financial behavior; and no count white trash propensities.
Even though the elusive vast right wing conspiracy was a nothing more than a deep, dark, psychotic compulsion hidden in the depths of Hillary’s narcotics altered secular progressive malfunctioning brain doesn’t mean there ain’t a vast left wing conspiracy currently working harder than a one legged man at an ass kicking contest fundamentally transforming the America we all know and love into an European style socialist nanny state. This bunch of radical left wing boneheads is already hard at work creating the greatest misperceptions in our country’s historic and storied development and standing right up like they had good sense proclaiming the virtues of a new reality.
Every head case, arrogant, liberal, political hack, talking head, columnist, commentator from the likes of the elitist scribes at the communist rag the New York Times to the ultra-liberal boneheaded corrupt journalist and anchors at MSNBC are advancing the false perception that the current economic metrics including the criminally high unemployment rate and 1.5 percent growth rate aren’t near as bad as it could have been without the enlightened leadership of President Obama. Besides, in today’s hyper competitive global market this new reality is about as much as we can reasonably expect.
They also figure if the say it often and with great enthusiasm all us poor dumb pilgrims will eventually start believing this load of horse manure. With few challenging their new liberal political reality with the exception of FOX News, Rush and other talk radio conservatives we best should all take care not to allow these leftist propaganda merchants to even get a toe-hold in the hearts and minds of the independents who ultimately are gonna be the folks deciding the most important election of our life time.
It’s truly shameful what these radical leftwing propagandists including our Bolshevik-in-Chief are saying in their attempts to brainwash we the people. Following are a few recent examples of their most outrageous remarks to the GOP Presidential candidates and other conservative thought leaders:
• “With unemployment coming down and the economy turning around doesn’t President Obama have a strong argument for reelection?” , Wolf “Grey Beard” Blitzer, CNN
• “With unemployment coming down and the economy turning around doesn’t President Obama have a strong argument for reelection?” , Chris “I Got a Serious Man Crush on Barack” Mathews, MSNBC
• “With unemployment coming down and the economy turning around doesn’t President Obama have a strong argument for reelection?”, Andrea “Older Than Baseball” Mitchell, NBC
• “With unemployment coming down and the economy turning around doesn’t President Obama have a strong argument for reelection?”, George “I Still Have a Man Crush on Bill Clinton” Stephanopoulos, ABC
• “With unemployment coming down and the economy turning around doesn’t President Obama have a strong argument for reelection?”, Scott “Nobody Even Knows Who I Am” Pelley, CBS
• “With unemployment coming down and the economy turning around doesn’t President Obama have a strong argument for reelection?”, Katie “I Got Fired Cause I’m Dumber Than a Bag of Rocks” Kurick, former CBS anchor
• “With unemployment coming down and the economy turning around doesn’t President Obama have a strong argument for reelection?”, Diane “Looks Pretty Damn Good for 70” Sawyer, ABC
• “With unemployment coming down and the economy turning around doesn’t President Obama have a strong argument for reelection?”, Anderson “ I Sure do Miss Barney Freddie in the Fannie Mac Frank” Cooper, CNN
• “With unemployment coming down and the economy turning around doesn’t President Obama have a strong argument for reelection?”, Christiane “Radical Islamic Jihadist” Amanpour, ABC
• "These guys have a fundamentally different economic philosophy. We're about promoting the private sector. They're about protecting the privileged sector. With unemployment coming down and the economy turning around President Obama has a strong argument for reelection.” VP Joe “I’m Dumber Than a Bag of Hammers” Biden
• It’s only fair, and everybody is entitled to their fair share, to be fair with unemployment coming down and the economy turning around my Administration has a strong argument for reelection.”, The Great Redistributor of Wealth-in-Chief
Like we said, say it loud and proud and perception sure enough might turn out to be reality. A classic propaganda tactic right out of the Obama political playbook, the Communist Manifesto.

Thoughts On Obama From Bama
Week 163: Tacky Yankee Lawyer Strikes Again
I blew out my flip-flop
Stepped on a pop-top
Cut my heel had to cruise on back home
But there's booze in the blender
And soon it will render
That frozen concoction that helps me hang on
Old men I tank tops Cruising the gift shops Checking out chakeetas down by the shore (hey baby want to ride in my new car)
They dream about weight loss Wish they were their own boss Those three day vacations become such a bore
Wastin away again in Margaretville
Searching for my lost shaker of salt
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
But I know it's my own damn fault
Yes and some people claim that there's a woman to blame And I know it's my own damn fault Margaretville, Jimmy Buffett
Bless his little Marxist/Socialist heart our 44th president just can’t help succumbing to his tacky Yankee lawyer hankerings. On the GOP’s biggest day of their 2012 primary to date, Super Tuesday, the president who doesn’t take a shine to not being the center of attention called his first press conference of 2012.
When asked, White House Propaganda Officer Jay Carney, said the scheduling issue was purely a coincidence. Coincidence my skinny white happy ass. No way, no how, no sir.
Fact is, our Pathological Narcissist-in-Chief is more scared than a long tailed cat walking through a room full of rocking chairs about becoming irrelevant. Not that any US president is ever really irrelevant. Incompetent; ineffective; not respected; arrogant; clueless; weak; a joke; but never irrelevant.
So, in a desperate attempt to avoid his paranoid delusions of irrelevance Mr. Obama inserted his self smack dab into the middle of Super Tuesday GOP politics coming across as small, petty, and nothing more than a heavy handed political hack. All characteristics that define the essence of our 44th president backwards and forwards.
As usual the president’s remarks and responses were chalk full of more lies, balderdash, and just plain BS than white on rice. The truth and Mr. Obama are just few and far between when it comes to anytime the man is flapping those gums in public.
Our public watch dog group, Liar, Liar, Pants On Fire (LLPOF), rated the president’s remarks for truth and accuracy on their 1- Right as Rain to 10- Lying Like a Cheap Rug scale. Following is a summary of their findings:
• Good afternoon, everybody. Now I understand there are some political contests going on tonight. But I’d thought I’d start the day off by taking a few questions which I’m sure will not be political in nature
• Absolutely can’t stand not being the center of attention. Tacky, tacky, sure enough tacky
• Businesses have created about 3.7 million new jobs over the last two years. Manufacturers are hiring for the first time since the 1990s. The auto-industry is back and hiring more than 200-thousand people over the last few years. Confidence is up and the economy is getting stronger
• LLPOF – 322, eight plus percent unemployment, 5 trillion in new debt, and runaway spending is downright criminal.
• This Congress could hold a vote on the Buffett rule, so that we don’t have billionaires paying a lower tax rate than their secretaries. That’s just common sense. The vast majority of Americans believe it’s common sense, and if we’re serious about paying down our deficit, it’s as good a place to start as any
• LLPOF – 257, Buffett’s secretary makes a half million a year and increasing his tax rate won’t make a frog’s hair worth of difference reducing the deficit.
• REPORTER QUESTION: “On the Middle East Gaddafi said he’s going to send his forces to Benghazi, route opponents from their bedrooms and he was going to shoot them. You frequently cited that speech as a justification for NATO, the no fly zone military action. In Syria al-Assad is killing people. There’s a massacre underway. Your critics here in the USA most notably John McCain said you could start airstrikes now. On Iran on Sunday Romney went so far as to say if you were re-elected Iran will get a bomb and the world will change. How do you respond?”
• Obama: When I came into office Iran was unified, on the move had made substantial progress on its nuclear program and the world was divided on how to deal with it. What we’ve been able to do over the last few is years is mobilize unprecedented crippling sanctions on Iran. Iran is feeling the bite of these sanctions in a substantial way. The world is unified Iran is politically isolated. What we have said is we won’t countenance Iran getting a nuclear weapon. My policy is not containment; my policy is not letting them get a nuclear weapon. That’s my track record. Now what’s said on the campaign trail, those folks don’t have a lot of responsibilities, they’re not commander in chief. When I see the casualness when I see these folks talk about war, I’m reminded of the costs involved in war.
• LLPOF- 177, Obama’s policy of walking softly and carrying a small twig emboldens our enemies and compromises US security. His accusation of the GOP candidates taking war with Iran casually is ludicrous especially when you consider Mr. Obama views our military as nothing more than a photo opp
• Jake Tapper, REPORTER QUESTION: Thank you, Mr. President. What kind of assurances did you give Prime Minister Netanyahu about the role that the U.S. would play if the diplomacy and economic sanctions fail to work to convince Iran’s leaders to change their behavior and Israel goes ahead and prepares to strike their nuclear facilities?
• President Obama: “I think there’s no doubt that those who are suggesting or proposing or beating the drums of war should explain clearly to the American people what they think the costs and benefits would be. I’m not one of those people. Because what I’ve said is, is that we have a window through which we can resolve this issue peacefully. We have put forward an international framework that is applying unprecedented pressure. The Iranians just stated that they are willing to return to the negotiating table. And we’ve got the opportunity, even as we maintain that pressure, to see how it plays out.
• LLPOF – 243, Anyone who believes Iran is ever gonna negotiate in good faith is crazier than an outhouse rat
• QUESTION: Thank you, Mr. President. Do you think Rush Limbaugh’s apology to the Georgetown Law student was sufficient and heartfelt? Do you agree with the decision of the growing number of sponsors that have decided to drop his show and stop supporting his show? And has there been a double standard on this issue? Liberal commentators have made similarly provocative or distasteful statements and there hasn’t been such an outrage.
• OBAMA: You know I’m not going to comment on what sponsors decide to do. I’m not going to comment on either the economics or the politics of it. I don’t know what’s in Rush Limbaugh’s heart, so I’m not going to comment on the sincerity of his apology. What I can comment on is the fact that all decent folks can agree that the remarks that were made don’t have any place in the public discourse. And the reason I called Ms. Flute is because I thought about Malia and Sasha and one of the things I want them to do as they get older is to engage in issues they care about. Even ones I may not agree with them on. I want them to be able to speak their mind in a civil and thoughtful way. And I don’t want them attacked or called horrible names because they’re being good citizens. And I wanted Sandra to know that I thought her parents should be proud of her.
• LLPOF – 197, what a sanctimonious wind bag. Liberals call GOP woman bitches, whores and worse including the likes of Bill Marh who just donated 1 million to the Obama campaign. No presidential apologies forthcoming, a tad hypocritical to say the least
• OBAMA – Thanks y’all. Allah the Great, Allah the Merciful, um, I mean, um, Allah, God bless America
Mr. Obama’s insistence of imposing himself on the GOP’s big day is the epitome of tacky Yankee lawyer behavior. Reckon we should expect nothing less from a man who considers a white tank top T shirt, Bermuda shorts, black dress socks and sandals as appropriate casual attire.
I am American by birth and Southern by the grace of God.

Thoughts On Obama From Bama
Week 162: White House Academy Awards
Don't give me hope
And take it away
Cause I'll show my weakness
Make you to stay
Don't give me something
To build all around
And just for a thrill
You tear it all down
Don't make me hope again
Knowing when you've grown tired of me
That you just disappear and leave me waiting here
Playin' the loser again Playin' the Loser Again, Jimmy Buffett
Week 161 of the train wreck known as the Obama Presidency coincided with Hollywood’s annual gathering of radical left wing head cases to recognize them for alleged outstanding artistic achievement. Decked out in their Sunday best the usual suspects of econazies, anti-war wimps, gay rights extremist, gun control fanatics, ill informed, elitist boneheads showed up on the red carpet of this year’s Academy Awards and as usual sure enough took advantage of every opportunity to advocate and advance their ultra liberal agendas.
Also, as usual, the hypocrisy in the air surrounding this annual self indulgent ego trip was so thick you could cut it with a knife. The carbon footprint from the thousands of gas guzzling stretch limos would make Al Gore sick enough to cancel a midnight massage therapy session and the number of firearms carried by security details, body guards and hip hop rapper thugs would make AG Eric “Fast and Furious Illegal Gun Smuggler“ Holder proud.
As the entire Obama Administration is right similar to a seemingly never ending B rated horror flick Thoughts On Obama From Bama is just tickled pink to conduct the first ever White House Academy Awards. Considering the special effects and kickass acting job this gang has done pretending to be patriots, capitalist, and freedom loving Americans we can’t think of a group of individuals more deserving of this special recognition.
“And the winner is”
• BEST COSTUME DESIGN – “She of the Butt Ugly Pants Suit Klan“, starring Hillary as pathological liar cult leader traveling the world dodging enemy sniper fire
• BEST MAKEUP – “El Naturell“, starring Hillary as pathological liar cult leader traveling the world dodging enemy sniper fire never brushing her hair or applying makeup showing every minute of age on her 60 something victimized face
• BEST SOUND EDITING – “Me and My Teleprompter“, starring Barack Obama in a Sci-Fi thriller about a man who has a teleprompter growing out of his forehead
• BEST ORIGINAL SONG – “I’m a Drunk Irish Buffoon Gaff Machine”, performed by VP Joe Biden from movie of same name starring the VEEP

Week 162: White House Academy Awards
Don't give me hope
And take it away
Cause I'll show my weakness
Make you to stay
Don't give me something
To build all around
And just for a thrill
You tear it all down
Don't make me hope again
Knowing when you've grown tired of me
That you just disappear and leave me waiting here
Playin' the loser again Playin' the Loser Again, Jimmy Buffett
Week 161 of the train wreck known as the Obama Presidency coincided with Hollywood’s annual gathering of radical left wing head cases to recognize them for alleged outstanding artistic achievement. Decked out in their Sunday best the usual suspects of econazies, anti-war wimps, gay rights extremist, gun control fanatics, ill informed, elitist boneheads showed up on the red carpet of this year’s Academy Awards and as usual sure enough took advantage of every opportunity to advocate and advance their ultra liberal agendas.
Also, as usual, the hypocrisy in the air surrounding this annual self indulgent ego trip was so thick you could cut it with a knife. The carbon footprint from the thousands of gas guzzling stretch limos would make Al Gore sick enough to cancel a midnight massage therapy session and the number of firearms carried by security details, body guards and hip hop rapper thugs would make AG Eric “Fast and Furious Illegal Gun Smuggler“ Holder proud.
As the entire Obama Administration is right similar to a seemingly never ending B rated horror flick Thoughts On Obama From Bama is just tickled pink to conduct the first ever White House Academy Awards. Considering the special effects and kickass acting job this gang has done pretending to be patriots, capitalist, and freedom loving Americans we can’t think of a group of individuals more deserving of this special recognition.
