In his acceptance speech for the Lincoln Medal at Ford’s Theater on Sunday, honoree Desmond Tutu

“spoke of the global need for peace and respect and spoke of the current conflicts in the Middle East.

“Security is not something that comes from the barrel of a gun,” he told the crowd.

Obama addresses crowd at Ford’s Theatre gala

Ironic that Tutu would say something as patently wrong as that on the 66th anniversary of the Normandy invasion, when, by shear force of arms, the Allies wrested from the the Nazi’s the first toehold in Europe that would ultimately lead to the overthrow of Hitler and freedom and security for millions.

Further ironic that he would say such a thing in the place where Lincoln was assassinated, after the bloodiest war in American history that preserved the Union and finally ended slavery.

American citizen, Edward Simmons from Florida, puts the pieces together the way our neutered mainstream media refuses to.

YouTube – What Obama is doing finally makes sense.

Ed’s explanation makes clear the reason for BO’s smash and grab rush to get everything passed before America wakes up. Hopefully we will soon find a smoking gun with which we can impeach this man for his violation of his oath to protect our Constitution. May that day come soon, for all our sakes.

Excellent post by Charles Krauthammer this morning.

Why Obamacare Is Sinking
You can’t fake health-care nirvana in legislation

What happened to Obamacare? Rhetoric met reality. As both candidate and president, the master rhetorician could conjure a world in which he bestows upon you health-care nirvana: more coverage, less cost.

But you can’t fake it in legislation. Once you commit your fantasies to words and numbers, the Congressional Budget Office comes along and declares that the emperor has no clothes….

The great Obama raid on American tax payers isn’t about helping anyone but the Democrat Party. Must be really amusing to those liberal pukes listening to endlsess logical debate on the merits of their nefarious programs, when the real purpose is embezzlement of our taxes. Tar and feathers is to good for those people.

When the anti-Christ comes, if he hasn’t already, he will be a politician.

Green Stimulus Money Costs More Jobs Than It Creates, Study Shows

Monday, April 13, 2009

By Josiah Ryan, Staff Writer

(CNSNews.com) – Every “green job” created with government money in Spain over the last eight years came at the cost of 2.2 regular jobs, and only one in 10 of the newly created green jobs became a permanent job, says a new study released this month. The study draws parallels with the green jobs programs of the Obama administration….

On Fox news today, Julie Banderas threw out to Twitterites the question, “Who’s to blame for the bonus fiasco? the government or the bailed out execs?

The question is better asked, “Who, in the first place, created the context in which these events could occur?”

Obviously Democrats are responsible. They are at the wheel. Their theatric self-righteous indignation over corporate bonuses is pure BS, a smokescreen to misdirect us from Democrats’ own incompetence, failure, and malfeasance, in a few cases (Freddy and Fanny), corruption.

The role of lawmakers in private business is first to monitor corporations for compliance with the law. Government is to oversee big business and give warning so that violations or mistakes can be avoided or corrected.

When monitoring reveals big business has violated the law, it is Government’s job to intervene, stop illegal practices and bring corporations back into compliance. By doing this, Government establishes a bottom to unacceptable corporate behavior.

Rather, the Democrat congress facilitated and enabled the implosion of big business by lack of oversight and is now helping push the bottom even lower by these astronomical bailouts.

Corporate bonuses are “bupkis” (zero, nada, nothing) compared to the incomprehensible debt Obama and his minions are trying to shove down our throats. Come on, folks. Let’s get our eyes back on the ball, get Democrats out of private business, and do what we can now to stop them taking us over this economic cliff.

Top 10 gaffes by Barack Obama and Joe Biden

Perhaps Barack Obama was just trying to make Joe Biden feel better by dropping his clanger on Jay Leno. Whatever the President was thinking, 60 days into their new administration it’s time for a post-election Obama-Biden Top 10….

Guess Barry can’t pick our pockets fast enough through the tax system. Big Al (Capone not Gore) would be proud of our Chicago boy President. LMM hasn’t reported much on this yet….huge surprise.

2 charged after search of DC tech office

By Devlin Barrett

WASHINGTON (AP) — A District of Columbia employee and a technology consultant have been hit with corruption charges after a raid on the former office of a city official who now works for President Barack Obama.

The charges were formalized in a federal court hearing as the FBI finished searching the city’s technology office, which was led until recently by Obama’s new computer chief, Vivek Kundra.

Ysuf Acar, a city technology worker, was ordered held without bond pending a hearing Tuesday. Prosecutors said $70,000 in cash was found during a search of Acar’s home….

Thanks for the “change,” Mr. President.

US Dollar to Extend Losses as Risky Assets Correct Higher

Fundamental Outlook for US Dollar: Bearish

- US Dollar Index Breaks Key Support, Signals Losses Ahead
- Retail Sales Fell Less than Expected in February
- Chinese Premier Questions the Safety of US Assets

US Dollar weakness is set to continue in the coming week as an upward correction in risky assets sends capital out of safe haven assets in search of yield. Last week, the US Dollar Index conclusively broke below a rising trend line that had guided prices higher since mid-December, opening the door for an extended pullback against the spectrum of major currencies. Indeed, the greenback’s average value against its major counterparts is now -93.7% inversely correlated with the MSCI World Stock Index. The Australian and New Zealand Dollars are likely to be the key beneficiaries once again as lucrative yields at 3.25% and 3.00% attract investors.

Beware of liberals bearing gifts.  Inside bailout programs is hidden a clandestine agenda to throw open America’s gates to sweeping socialism. I guess we won’t know how similar the liberal agenda really is to that of the Nazis until we have our own staged event like Hitler’s Reichstag fire that he used to suspend freedoms in Germany, in furtherance of his goal of complete control of the country by a legally established dictatorship.

Archbishop warns of dangers of economic dogma

LONDON (AFP) — Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams warned Monday that governments should not pursue dogmatic solutions to the financial crisis at the risk of the most vulnerable, saying that is what the Nazis did.

Writing in the Daily Telegraph newspaper, he said Hitler’s movement was based on a system of principles that “worked quite consistently once you accepted that quite a lot of people that you might have thought mattered as human beings actually didn’t”.

Williams, the most senior cleric in the Church of England, said that in the current climate, “what looked like a principled defence of some of our economic assumptions… seems more ragged and vulnerable than it once did”.

He questioned the human costs of measures to tackle the downturn.

“What about the unique concerns and crises of the pensioner whose savings have disappeared, the Woolworth’s (bankrupt store) employee, the hopeful young executive, let alone the helpless producer of goods in some Third-world environment where prices are determined thousands of miles away?” he asked.

Williams added: “How we all work is vastly complicated — no one is pretending it isn’t. But without these anxieties about the specific costs, we’ve lost the essential moral compass.”
