Democrats Are Good At Pointing Fingers

We know that Democrats are good at blaming others for their shortcomings. Barack Obama displays this regularly when he blames George Bush for everything that is wrong and when he blames Republicans for things that he is responsible for.

Harry Reid is a typical liberal Democrat who needs to retire and yell at kids walking on his lawn. Reid is blaming the problems in Crimea on Republicans. It seems that Republicans held up aid to Ukraine because the bill includes changes to the IMF. Reid complained that the bill was held up prior to the last break and now that they are back at work the Republicans need to do something so we can show we are committed.

[note]If it was that important then why did they recess and go on a break?[/note]

Harry blamed the Republicans saying that their refusal to comply endangered our national security.

“As we begin debate on this aid and sanctions package, I also hope that the Republicans stopped action on this legislation prior to the break have considered how their obstruction affects our great country’s national security as well as the people of Ukraine who are struggling so very, very much,” Reid said on the floor.

Reid said that Republicans blocking action on the bill sent “a very weak message to the Russians” that the U.S. was taking its time, saying since the bill failed to advance, Russia has been aggressive in the Crimean region of Ukraine.

“It’s impossible to know whether events would have unfolded differently if the United States had responded to this Russian aggression with a strong unified voice, which we did not do,” Reid said. [Politico]

First of all the situation in Ukraine has little to do with our immediate national security (once again, if it does why did they go on break). The Russians did not attack us though their action might cause us to react because of treaties. They only thing they really did was demonstrate that we have a weak leader in Obama. Putin has made Obama look like a child on the playground of life.

That leads to the second point. The refusal of Republicans to act on the bill did not demonstrate weakness, Barack Obama did. He believes that all he has to do is speak and people will be hypnotized by his message. Putin was having none of that and, recognizing he was dealing with a weakling, pressed on.

The final point is that it is not impossible to know if things would have unfolded differently, they would not have. Sarah Palin and Mitt Romney warned of this years ago. They were both mocked and criticized by Obama and his cronies.

Turns out they were right.

Putin has known for a while that Obama is weak. He demonstrated that in the Syrian issue and he knew that he could outplay Obama on the world stage and that Obama would not have the testicular fortitude to do anything.

Putin was right and that, Harry, is why things happened the way they did. The Russians forced their will on the people of Crimea and are turning toward Ukraine to do the same.

You Harry, should understand forcing something on people who do not want it.

We call it Obamacare.

The Unspoken Message From Obama To Illegals

Some time ago when Obamacare was being debated and Obama was giving his State of the Union Joe Wilson blurted out “you lie” when Obama said Illegals would not be able to sign up for the health insurance. Wilson caught hell for the utterance but it turns out that he was right.

Considering all the other lies Obama has been caught in this should come as no surprise.

At a meeting with immigrants there was concern from the group that the information they provide when they sign up would be shared with immigration to effect deportation proceedings. Obama told them not to worry because the information will not be shared. Obama made sure to tell them that the law was written so that illegals are not eligible.

He further stated that those who are here legally should sign up and have no fear that anyone in their house who is here illegally would be discovered because of the information provided.

Why would the people be worried about the information being shared with immigration if they are here legally? If they sign up and check out there should be no worry about others in their house because those folks will not be listed so they can’t be checked out.

Or will they be listed?

Obama made it clear that the information provided would not be shared. Therefore anyone, illegal or not, can sign up and have no fear of being discovered.

So let me rephrase what Obama said to them.

The law says illegals can’t sign up (wink, wink) but we won’t be checking if you are illegal or not. So have no worry and go ahead and sign up your legal (wink, wink) family members.

Joe Wilson was right when he called Obama a liar because Obama lied.

If we will not check to see if those signing up are here legally then we are encouraging the illegals to go ahead and sign up.

Yes, illegals will be able to sign up for Obamacare because while the law says they can’t we all know Obama does not support any law (or parts thereof) he does not like.

He is an absolute liar and Joe Wilson stands vindicated.

Duck And Cover Democrats

The Democrats shut down the government last October, of this there can be no doubt. I know they blamed Republicans who asked for a number of concessions including repealing Obamacare. Of course Democrats would not do that so Republicans asked for a delay in the Individual Mandate so that the people being affected by the law would have a reprieve.

Absolutely not was the response from Democrats.

The government shut down and there was uproar as Barack Obama worked to make it seem as uncomfortable as possible. We can’t have this government shut down because people depend on it (which is a problem as far as I am concerned).

[note]Interestingly, no one in DC screams that the people need the government and that it can’t shut down when it closes every time there is a bad snowstorm. The government has shut down a number of times this winter due to bad weather and no one in government had an issue with it.[/note]

But the very reprieve that Republicans were asking for, a delay in the Individual Mandate, has been granted by Imperial Leader Obama. He caught hell for all the cancellations and his lie about keeping your plan if you liked it was exposed. So Obama, who could have avoided the shutdown and the embarrassment of his lie being exposed in October, extended the Mandate. He pushed it a year down the road. He could have done that in October and the government would not have shut down so he is responsible despite what the left tells you.

But a problem happened when he extended the deadline a year. The extension could result in a nasty election day for Democrats because insurance companies are required by law to send out cancellation notices 90 days before the cancellation.

Those notices will go out about five weeks before the November midterm election and a lot of anger will be pointed at Democrats.

You see, no Republican voted for Obamacare. The Democrats used a lot of back room deals to get enough of their own to vote for it so they own it. It has been a disaster and many of them will be fighting for their political lives. The last thing they need is the cancellations that would have come out earlier this past year to start coming out just before the election. This will remind all voters that Obamacare took away their plans and give them plenty of reason to vote them out of office.

Barack Obama to the rescue.

Obama is set to announce another extension of the mandate and the sole reason is so that the cancellation notices do not come out prior to the election. It is already unconstitutional for him to change the law as he has done over 20 times but now he is playing political games with this change. There is no reason for the extension to be granted except to provide cover for vulnerable Democrats.

The constant changes from Obama have caused problems for insurance companies because they need a stable environment in order to assess the cost of coverage and to adjust premiums. In the ever changing Obamacare world they are unable to run their businesses. Here is what they should do. The law requires them to send the notices no later than 90 days but as far as I am aware there is no restriction on sending them out earlier.

These companies should send out the notices so that they reach people prior to the election. People need to know what lies ahead before they vote.

Of course, people need to be responsible too. They know that millions were dumped from their plans and they know that Obama lied when he told them they could keep them if they liked them so they need to understand that the extension only delays the inevitable.

Regardless of when the extension ends they will still lose their plans. They need to understand that Obama is only doing what he is doing to help Democrats avoid defeat in November.

Remember, these politicians only care about you when they want your vote. Once you put them back in office they will screw you every way they can. Dump them in November and get some fresh blood in there to shake things up and ensure your interests are taken into consideration.

It is amazing to me Obama has the nerve to claim that Putin is violating International Law when Obama is busy breaking American law.

Send him a message and cripple him in the next election. We might not be able to get anything passed because he has a veto pen BUT we can make him a true lame duck who cannot force his agenda on an unwilling population.

Obama Using IRS Again

King B. Hussein Obama the First has again violated the Constitution by issuing orders that directly contradict a duly enacted law. Obamacare was passed by DEMOCRATS in Congress and signed into law by DEMOCRAT Obama and the SCOTUS rewrote the law to allow it. That law has set dates for things to happen but things are not going well with Obamacare and Democrats are worried they will lose the Senate in the next election.

So, King Obama pushed certain employer mandates past the next election so that the mindless people will forget about the problems and the certain disaster and vote the loveable Democrats back into office. By the way, these are the same delays Republicans wanted and Obama and Reid refused resulting in the Democrat shut down of the federal government.

[note]Keep in mind the disaster of millions losing jobs and/or insurance will not be prevented. It will just be delayed until after the election. Once they are back in office the mess will occur and there will be nothing you can do about it. Vote them out this November and put an end to this insanity.[/note]

The problem is Obama’s edicts do not comply with the law. As the Executive he is not allowed to change laws.

The edicts affect businesses that employ certain numbers of full time employees. Obama’s henchmen at the IRS have been tasked with intimidating these businesses not to fire people because of Obamacare. Well really they are intimidating them into NOT claiming it was because of Obamacare.

The smart employer knows that if he has to comply with the law if he has 100 employees then he can avoid the law by firing enough people to get below that threshold. The IRS will force businesses to swear, under penalty of perjury, that it did not fire people to avoid Obamacare and its mandates.

The numbers deal with full time workers because the law already allows for employers to avoid Obamacare for part time employees (fewer than 30 hours per week).

So the goon squad at the IRS, fresh off illegally targeting conservative groups, will now force businesses to swear that they are not dumping employees because of (or to avoid) Obamacare.

This is insane. Employers are free to hire and fire people for whatever reason they want. There is no need to let the government know why.

But since the IRS will be used as the enforcement arm and since members of Congress refuse to stop the lawless Obama (particularly the jelly spined Republicans) businesses will likely have to comply or face the wrath of an unleashed IRS.

But wait, what will stop a business with too many employees from reducing hours of those workers so they fall below the 30 hours required to provide insurance? A smart business owner could very easily reduce hours until the number of full time employees is below the 50 or 100 level and thus avoid the Obamacare mandates.

Reduced hours means less pay (which is probably why Democrats are pushing for a minimum wage increase. Well that and buying votes) but does that matter if you are trying to run a business without going bankrupt from Obamacare (in addition to the numerous other government regulations)?

Yep, if I owned a business I would fire employees who voted for Obama. If I faced the IRS goons and could not do it I would reduce the Obama voter’s hours to under 30. The law is specific about the hour requirement.

Then again, the tyrant King has not followed the law as of yet so I suspect that once he figures this out he will issue new orders for the IRS.

[note]The reality is the Democrats do not want businesses talking about firing people because of Obamacare. They know it will happen but if it is discussed they might lose more votes so they are using the IRS to issue a sort of gag order. Fire people and swear it was not because of Obamacare so then you can’t go out and say it was…[/note]

Voters need to strengthen the Republican numbers in the House and retake the Senate (with a big majority) and this will put a stop to Obama and Harry Reid and their destruction of the country.

It will also give us the numbers needed to impeach the King.

But only if they grow a spine along the way.

As an aside, Obama and I have something in common. He sees fit not to follow the law. So do I…

America Was Built On Hard Work

Democrat Congressman Keith Ellison has a new twist on the reduced hours people are suffering as a result of the poor economy and the mandates of Obamacare. Ellison thinks that reduced hours are a good thing and that this will allow families to spend more time together and cook meals at home rather than getting take out.

“We are going to have parents being able to come home, working reasonable hours. People are going to be able to retire. People might actually be able to cook dinner rather than have to order out and get some takeout.”

Not content with putting lipstick on this pig (yes Ellison is a Muslim) he went on to say that Americans work more than other industrialized nations as a way to justify the loss of working hours.

“If you look at international comparisons country by country, Americans work way more that the average of industrialized countries around the world.”

Ellison seems to think that having your hours cut and getting a smaller paycheck is a great opportunity. He believes that we work too much and I can see why he would think that. As a member of Congress he works about three days a week so a real job escapes him.

America was founded on hard work and 40 hours a week is not too much of a burden in order to make a decent living. Many Americans have worked twice that for a long time to get ahead.

America was built by people who worked hard from sun up until sun down and they did so in hopes of providing a better life for their children and grandchildren.

But people like Ellison think losing hours and pay is a gift from Obama to allow folks to eat at home instead of getting take out food.

As if anyone can afford that in the Obama economy…

He, like many in Congress, is out of touch and it is up to us to help him have more time with his family next November. We can do that by voting him (and all the others) OUT.
