Why Is Obama Pushing Daley’s Plan for Chicago to Host Olympics in 2016? »

Just as Daley controlled Obama in Chicago, Daley will control Obama in Washington, DC. I quote the Chicago Tribune with added emphasis:
It didn’t take long for Barack Obama to start playing a significant role in promoting Chicago’s bid for the 2016 Summer Olympics.
About 15 minutes into Chicago’s Friday presentation of its bid plans to [...]

Spread the Wealth but Concentrate the Blame »

A few days ago, NQ posted a story based on audio of an interview Obama gave in 1995. This piece was about race. The now-viral video about redistribution of wealth is from a 2001 interview, and it covers the redistribution of wealth and justice from the perspective of civil rights legislation. We’ve [...]

“Brother, Can You Spare A Dime,” Or More Like… »

“Give me all your money - I’m the government! I know how best to spend your hard earned wages - I’ll SHARE them with whomever I choose worthy! And while I’m at it, maybe I’ll take over your 401(k)s too, and give you a WHOPPING 3% interest on your “investment!

But it’s not just about money! It’s the secrecy from us, the American people, and [...]

Reid v. McCain - Updated »

It would seem that the Democrats are playing the ultimate game of “GOTCHA!” with Senator McCain. No doubt, if you have paid ANY attention at all to the discussion around the Bail Out, you will hear Democrats reaming McCain for coming back, saying it was unnecessary since he wasn’t needed, and he isn’t saying [...]

“Constitutional Mandates” »

I have written a few times about my Representative, Jim Clyburn. You know, the one who stabbed the Clintons in the back repeatedly? The one who encouraged the race-baiting around Bill Clinton saying that for Obama to claim that he has done anything different on Iraq from Senator Clinton was a “fairy tale”? Here’s a [...]

Such Associates … »

As noted previously, I live in SC. And my state representative is none other than James Clyburn. Yes, that James Clyburn - the turncoat who stabbed the Clintons - both of them - repeatedly in the back. His traitorous behavior began shortly before the SC primary when he jumped on the “Bill [...]
