Elitist Liar Obama Takes On Romney In Video Wars

source: sodahead.com

March 5, 2012 - No surprise: The presidential election just keeps getting uglier -- and funnier. A new video from Comrade Barack Obama attacks Republican nominee hopeful Mitt Romney. Romney fires back with his own attack video.

This is particularly true when it comes to Obama's statements about energy prices. Whenever he says that he is trying to lower gas prices or any other fuel prices, know this: Obama is not telling the truth, and his own words prove it.

The first video here, "Mitt Romney Versus Reality," is from the Obama campaign. It uses clips from President Obama's speech to the American Society of Newspaper Editors earlier this week, says Real Clear Politics, "to respond to charges made by Mitt Romney in his victory speech after winning primaries in Wisconsin, Maryland and Washington D.C."

Obama's speech to the editors was an amazing spew of Marxist babble. It was, honest-to-God, baffling. Robert Lenzner of Forbes thinks so too. He wrote a piece for Forbes today with the no-holds-barred headline, "Inept, Elitist Obama Speech Rotten Political Warfare." Wow.

"Your talk to the Society of Newspaper Editors," wrote Lenzner, "was more Political Warfare than a primer in Math or or an effective attack on Class Warfare, Mr. President. You lost me and most of America with all your talk about Trojan Horses and Social Darwinism, as I thought I was back in John Finley’s Course on Classics or Arthur Schlesinger’s course on American Intellectual history at Harvard in the 1950s." Wow. Confused? We all were, weren't we?

The second video is from the Romney camp and was released yesterday on YouTube by mittromney. "President Obama is attacking Mitt Romney because his energy policies have failed," says the video's posted description. "In states across the country, gas prices have roughly doubled since President Obama took office. Mitt Romney will offer solutions to our energy problem instead of excuses."

The third video is Obama speaking to The San Francisco Chronicle in January, 2008.

In that interview, he told the Chronicle that he wants energy prices to rise. "Under my plan of a cap and trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket."

This is a painful video for Obama supporters to watch. A warning to liberals: Obama's words are so unambiguous that only a hypnotized Obamabot could possibly deny the fact that the Obama Administration's energy policy is to encourage higher energy prices.

UPDATED: Over 1,000 Occupy Protesters March Toward CPAC Meeting in Washington

UPDATE: Earlier today, a large group of Occupy protesters were on their way to interrupt CPAC in Washington, D.C. From all accounts, there were hundreds. Somehow, the protest seems to have evaporated into a disorganized, very weak and failed attempt. See our full update here: "Occupy CPAC Fails To Occupy CPAC (LOL)"
----
February 10, 2012 - 2:30 PM ET - At least 800 to 1,000 Occupy protesters are walking toward the CPAC gathering in Washington, D.C. at this moment. Watch it live below. Many of the "Occupy CPAC" goons were actually paid to march and cause trouble.

CPAC is the "Conservative Political Action Conference," is an annual gathering of conservatives. It is being held at the Marriott Wardman Park Hotel in D.C., Feb. 9-11.

Recent reports that Occupy and union thugs were planning to cause trouble for CPAC this week seem to now be proven correct. Watch "Occupy CPAC" protesters live below (via Ustream) and watch CPAC live at cpac2012.conservative.org. Also, follow the action on Twitter at #OccupyCPAC and at SooperMexican.com.

Pelosi's Big Oil Lies

April 28, 2011 - Did you know that the Obama Administration is subsidizing the oil industry in Brazil? Yep, that's right. This, of course, is with the full knowledge and consent of House Squeaker Nancy Pelosi. Yet there was Pelosi this morning, giving the old Lefty line about ending subsidies to Big Oil. (Translation: American Big Oil.) According to a report by MarketWatch today, House Dummy Leader Pelosi "used Exxon Mobil Corp.’s first-quarter profits to again call for ending subsidies to big oil companies, escalating the already-intense war of words over energy policy." The Obama Regime, by the way, has no energy policy other than to (a) prevent American exploration and drilling for new oil, (b) promise to hunt down all the speculators who have illegally driven up fuel prices (none have been found) and (c) throw U.S. taxpayer money at Brazil's oil drilling efforts. In part, Pelosi was inspired to spew her rant by news that Exxon Mobil said its profit rose 69% to nearly $11 billion in the first quarter. MarketWatch noted that "Pelosi, like President Barack Obama earlier in the week, said oil companies don’t deserve tax breaks and that the U.S. ought to be investing in clean energy." Seriously, does this make sense? I agree that "clean energy" should be pursued. It's a worthy goal, but it's very long term and in the here and now we need to make full use of the energy we have at hand. Pelosi, sticking to the Marxist line, said that U.S. taxpayers shouldn't "subsidize Big Oil’s profits.” Again, she said nothing about American taxpayers subsidizing Big Oil in Brazil. MarketWatch also reportesd that Obama’s 2012 budget would take away tax deductions from oil and gas companies, which would "raise about $46 billion over 10 years." Let's see, that's $4.6 billion per year, or $383,333,333 per month, which breaks down to $88,461,538 per week. That's about $12,602,739 per day, which is about how much it cost for Obama to fly into Chicago to tape an Oprah show yesterday. RELATED: Obama Underwrites Offshore Drilling WSJ.com

Video of Chicago Anti-War Protest, March 18, 2010

Anti-War rally and march in Federal Plaza, downtown Chicago, up N. Michigan Avenue on Thursday, March 18, 2010, the 7th anniversary of the Iraq War. Most of the time, this event felt more like an anti-Israel rally. For 90 more photos and my full editorial review of the protest, see my post here. Also see my video of the same protest event in 2008, which was remarkably similar.

Obama Has Always Hated America

Barack Obama served as a professor in the University of Chicago Law School from 1992 until 2004, when he was elected to the U.S. Senate. There, he imparted his anti-American, pro-Marxist views to students and fellow faculty.

As a college student, Barack Obama expressed Marxist views, including the need for a new socialist U.S. government, according to a student who says he shared the future president’s opinion at the time. Full post at newsmax.com...

We right-wingers warned you two years ago that Obama is a Marxist. Many of you who doubted us then are apologetic believers today. Read this passage, written just days before the 2008 Election, which seems eerily accurate today:

It truly is amazing how gullible the Obama campaign thinks Americans are by constantly calling truth that shines the light on a Marxist Obama “distractions”. This is everything! The economy, the wars, abortion…none of that matters if we lose our freedom. What an Obama presidency will change those words to is: The economy becomes redistribution of wealth, wars become Martial Law here in America with boots on our streets and terrorists able to destroy us and abortion becomes Eugenics where only the best get to live. Liberals love to compare President Bush to Hitler. They’ve got the wrong man. Full post at freedomswings.wordpress.com...

Three days later, Donald Douglas posted this at americanpower.blogspot.com: Understanding Barack Obama's pedagogy - not to mention his long-line of radical community activism and ties to untold left-wing personages and appendages - helps to demonstrate how Obama is not just an advocate of greater regulation or emergency relief, but of a full-blown ideological shift of power to the ideal socialist state.

Olympics, the Chicago Way

Michelle Malkin (video below) blows discussed the dirty Olympics dealings in Chicago by and for Obama and his posse with Sean Hannity last night. (Hat tip to Bluegrass Pundit.) Also see "Olympic-sized boondoggle: What Valerie Jarrett and Michelle Obama are up to," a good summary of the chummy relationship between Chicago Mayor Daley’s former lawyer Valerie Jarrett (now the White House Senior Advisor and Michelle Obama's former employer). As noted by Malkin: "Jarrett’s slum lord record in Chicago is highly relevant to her current and ongoing pursuit of Chicago’s 2016 Olympic bid — which will cost taxpayers nearly $5 billion and bring an untold windfall to developers and contractors." Can't you just imagine Mayor Daley saying "Jarrett? Jarrett? I don't know anybody named Jarrett, and even if I did, am I supposed to know everything about their slumlord activities? Ridiculous!"

Glenn Beck Proves Obama is a Communist

Sounds crazy, doesn't it, to say that Barack Obama is a Communist? Sure, I suppose it does unless you know enough to realize that ... it's not crazy at all. Glenn Beck presents strong evidence of Obama's radicalism and of his Communist tendencies. His strong ties to ACORN, SEIU and self-avowed Communists - and their writing of a huge chunk of the "stimulus" legislation through the shadowy "Apollo Alliance." WATCH THE VIDEO BELOW, in which Beck brilliantly lays it out in a chart before your very eyes with the help of Phil Kerpen, director of policy for Americans for Prosperity. It is evidence so strong that it should convince all but the most hypnotized that Obama and his fellow travelers are laying the groundwork for a Marxist transformation of the United States. A stunning piece of work, a brilliant presentation, this video is a must-see. Tell everyone you know to watch it. (A full transcript of the segment is available here; originally aired on July 29, 2009) Related links follow, below this video.

Dead But Forever Red

Rogers Park communist-anarchist and terrorist sympathizer Franklin Rosemont died, suddenly and ironically, on April 12, Easter Sunday, at age 65.

The Chicago Tribune published an obituary three days later, which omitted some information about Rosemont. In that Tribune obit, the words "communist," "socialist," "Marxist," "Leninist," "SDS," "anarchist" and "weather underground" do not appear. Rosemont, survived by his self-avowed anarchist wife, Penelope, was all of those things. Both were symphathizers of SDS (Student for a Democratic Society), an often violent anti-government group that started in the 1960's and is attempting a comeback today. In short, they hated the United States of America.

Franklin and Penelope Rosemont attended an SDS reunion in Chicago in November, 2007 (see video here). The meeting was also attended by former members of the Weather Underground, the militant offshoot of the SDS that bombed buildings in a wave of domestic terrorism in the Sixties

The Tribune obit give a few hints as to just how radical Rosemont was, but it never comes right out and states it fully. The Trib mentions that Rosemont "maintained Chicago's long history of leftist activism through prolific writing and his stewardship of 123-year-old radical publishing house Charles H. Kerr." The Trib mentions that he was the "son of a printers union activist" and was a member of the Industrial Workers of the World, "a leftist trade group nicknamed the Wobblies, when he was 7, adopting a faith from which he never wavered."

May Franklin Rosemont go to the Heaven that his atheist communist pals say does not exist.

OBAMA'S PROMISE: YOU'LL PAY MORE FOR ELECTRICITY IF I AM ELECTED

Barack Obama told the San Francisco Chronicle that his energy policies include bankrupting the coal industry, from which the US gets huge portions of its energy. If Obama is able to, his policies would limit coal-fired electric plants, thus raising your heating bills, your light bills; your overall energy bills will skyrocket. Thousands of people in the energy industry would be put out of work. Listen to Barack Obama, in his own words, in the startling interview audio (below). From the interview: "Luh-luh-luh-luh-luh-luh-luh-luh-let me sort of describe my overall policy," Obama the Great Orator stammered, "So if somebody wants to build a coal-powered plant, they can; it's just that it will bankrupt them because they're going to be charged a huge sum for all that greenhouse gas that's being emitted." Obama actually admits that policies will force you to pay much, much higher rates for your electricity: “You know, when I was asked earlier about the issue of coal, you know — under my plan of a cap and trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket. Even regardless of what I say about whether coal is good or bad. Because I’m capping greenhouse gases, coal power plants, you know, natural gas, you name it — whatever the plants were, whatever the industry was, they would have to retrofit their operations. That will cost money. They will pass that money on to consumers.”

The American Stalin Cometh

A shocking commentary by Sher Zieve, author, political commentator, Staff Writer and Program Director for The

New Media Alliance (http://www.thenma.org/). Zieve's column, found on WebCommentary, is titled "Is the USA Ready for an American Stalin?"

There are two ways to answer that, I believe. First, "yes," because so many useful idiots are so foolishly eager to vote for Barack Obama. Second, "no," those useful idiots are not ready, but are so ignorant of political ideology and of modern history that they are eager to vote for Barack Obama. Hmmm, there's a third answer, too, which is "yes," for a few, because some people are knowingly eager to get a hard socialist regime in power in the US. None of those are happy answers.

Here is an excerpt from Zieve's commentary: Obama has long been an adherent of Marxism and—as well as having befriended and worked with Marxist terrorists William Ayers and his wife Bernadine Dohrn—one of his earliest mentors was Saul Alinsky; Marxist and the American founder of “community organizing” in Chicago. In his book “Rules for Radicals”—which he dedicated to Satan—Alinsky outlines how to create radicals and take over impoverished communities and then extend into the larger suburban areas by lulling the middle class into a false sense of comfort with the organizers’ ideas. Alinsky advises that by the time the “educated” middle class realizes the radicals were lying, it’s too late.

Ostalin

Note: After Obama is elected, all of his programs and people to keep him in power indefinitely—and to rid him of any and all opposition—will be firmly in place. You will not be able to vote him out of office. By the time he assumes the position of President of the United States it will already be too late. A democratic republic will last only so long as people of good will allow and fight for it. After they are gone—or removed—it is ended. Read the full article...

Extended Biography of Sher Zieve Sher Zieve is an author, political commentator, Staff Writer and Program Director for The New Media Alliance (http://www.thenma.org/). Zieve’s Op/Ed columns are widely carried by multiple Internet Journals and sites and she also writes hard news. Her columns have also appeared in The Oregon Herald, Dallas Times, Boston Star, Massachusetts Sun, Sacramento Sun, in International news publications and on multiple University websites. Zieve firmly believes that if Leftists ran the country (and left to their own inane devices), it would be the end of the United States as a sovereign nation.

Let Them Eat Cake at the University of Chicago

THIS IS HYSTERICALLY FUNNY. George Saad writes about the nuttiness and otherworldliness of the U of C, where Barack Obama "taught law." Saad recently moved into an office on the campus and blogged about the experience on his "Let Them Eat Cake" site: Seeing people driving cars with Obama flags hanging out the window and Change buttons adorning their shirts, I get the sense that only the Graduate School of Business remains the bastion of free market ideology on campus. Saad relates how out of touch the Leftist Drones on the UC campus seem to be. He details his encounters with the brainwashed student defenders of totatilarianism: Later they defended the Chinese revolution to several terrified Oriental businessmen whose parents probably were slaughtered by Mao. They also tried to defend the standard of living in North Korea as opposed to South Korea, and when I called them on this, they responded that North Korea has failed because it is a little half country split by imperialists. I responded that South Korea is also half a country, which the now petrified Oriental businessmen appreciated. Read the entire, intensely funny post...

Effort to Levitate Denver Mint Fails

DENVER - Democrats took to the streets of the Mile High City, apparently all a mile high, and marched to the U.S. Mint where they attempted to levitate it. The effort failed. The effort was reminiscent of the attempt to levitate the Pentagon on Saturday, October 21, 1967, which also failed. For more on this breaking story, we will turn to Michelle Malkin: I’m happy to report that the anti-capitalists failed in their effort to defy gravity and levitate the U.S. Mint. The wizard hat and magic wands weren’t working. FULL AMUSING POST... ALSO SEE: Marxists Unite! and Fighting back against Obama’s thugs

OBAMA: OBEY-ME

This guy Obaman is dangerous, people. From today's IBD: Sen. Obama's call to public service is quite different from JFK's. JFK knew America was already a nation of givers and volunteers, perhaps the most charitable and altruistic nation on Earth. Entities such as the Peace Corps would give Americans an outlet for their kindness and generosity, an opportunity to share what the freest nation on Earth had given them. Obama will force you to share. [Emphasis added] Yipes! Talk about tiptoe-ing toward a fascistic authoritarian society (as if the Democrats weren't already frog marching us there already). "Our collective service can shape the destiny of this generation," Obama said. "Individual salvation depends on collective salvation." What Obama is really asking for is servitude rather than service. Watch that word "collective," a word that socialists and communists just cannot resist dropping. It's a reflexive action for them, and fortunately for the still-benighted among us, the annointed reveal their authoritarian tendencies when they use it. "Collective" equals "communistic." Alexis de Tocqueville (1805-1859) had this to say about servitude: "Democracy extends the sphere of individual freedom, socialism restricts it. Democracy attaches all possible value to each man; socialism makes each man a mere agent, a mere number. Democracy and socialism have nothing in common but one word: equality. But notice the difference: while democracy seeks equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in restraint and servitude."

The Marxist Obama: "All that sh**"

A MUST-READ COLUMN in Investor's Business Daily further exposes and details the "stealth socialism" and dangerous Marxist tendencies of Barack Obama:

A careful reading of Obama's first memoir, "Dreams From My Father," reveals that his childhood mentor up to age 18 — a man he cryptically refers to as "Frank" — was none other than the late communist Frank Marshall Davis, who fled Chicago after the FBI and Congress opened investigations into his "subversive," "un-American activities."

As Obama was preparing to head off to college, he sat at Davis' feet in his Waikiki bungalow for nightly bull sessions. Davis plied his impressionable guest with liberal doses of whiskey and advice, including: Never trust the white establishment.

"They'll train you so good," he said, "you'll start believing what they tell you about equal opportunity and the American way and all that sh**."

Those of us who know and understand the history of the past 100 years should be scared shitless by Barack Obama. He promises a great leap toward authoritarian government control of every aspect of our lives, to a degree not seen in this country since the dictator Franklin Roosevelt in the 1930's and 1940's.

A perfect storm of statism is forming, and our economic freedoms are at serious risk. Those who care less about looking politically correct than preserving the free-market individualism that's made this country great have to start calling things by their proper name to avert long-term disaster.

Obama Endorsed by FARC Terrorists

No, really. This comes from Gateway Pundit: The Colombians captured two FARC terrorist laptop computers at the terrorist camp. The Colombians discovered a treasure trove of information on the laptops including: -- FARC connections with Ecuadorean president Rafael Correa -- Records of $300 million offerings from Hugo Chavez -- Thank you notes from Hugo Chavez dating back to 1992 -- Uranium purchasing records -- Directions on how to make a Dirty Bomb Oh yes, and this: "The FARC Terrorists were hoping and expecting that Barack Obama would win the US elections in November because he was most aligned with the Colombian Marxist group," according to GP.
