Sorry, you're wrong. Again.

Dems Attack Romney Over Layoffs Made by Obama Bundler

Realizing that Obama's reelection is in serious jeopardy, the President's campaign today released a two-minute ad slamming Mitt Romney for layoffs made at a company controlled by Bain Capital. The ad is built around interviews with former steelworkers at GST Steel, a mill in Kansas City, who were laid off as the company collapsed in the wake of a downturn in the steel market. The ad is certainly gripping and emotional. It is also, however, completely wrong.

The company was shut down in 2001. Romney left Bain in 1999, long before the plant closing, to run Winter Olympics. Two years is an eternity in the business world. Blaming Romney for decisions made two years after the left the company is at best disingenuous.

However, there was a political power-player serving as a director of Bain at the time of the company's bankruptcy and layoffs-- Jonathan Lavine. Lavine joined Bain in 1993. He is currently Managing Director and Chief Investment Officer. He is also a major bundler for Barack Obama, raising between $100-200k for the his reelection. While we don't know the specific role Lavine had in decisions regarding the bankrupt company, he certainly had more influence than someone who had left Bain two years before.

Perhaps Obama should use some of Lavine's donations to help the steelworkers featured in his ad.

Is Barack Obama Gay?

Since at least the 1964 election, the agenda-driven media in this country has aggressively promoted the Left’s favored candidates in every election while strategically targeting conservatives for destruction. A copy of the Alinsky Rules for Radicals sits in every newsroom in the country, where “journalists” employ Alinsky Methods to polarize, ostracize, ridicule, and impugn Republicans at every available opportunity. In the zeal to destroy conservative politicians, the agenda-drive media quite often reports rumors and innuendo as concrete fact. Leftist websites like Politico.com rush to be first! in reporting Republican scandals, never much worrying about being “right”.

A real double-standard’s in play when it comes to accusations made about politicians: if a Democrat’s being accused of anything, the agenda-driven media attacks the accuser, digging up any dirt it has on the person and mobilizing the Alinsky Goon Squads to annihilate this perceived opponent of the Left; if it’s a Republican who’s been accused of anything, the agenda-driven media heralds the accuser as the bravest and most courageous person on the planet for coming forward with dirt on the conservative in the race.

If you have followed Barack Hussein Obama’s meteoric rise to power, you’ve noticed that anyone asking questions about his background typically finds him or herself on the receiving end of the Alinsky Attack Machine. Any criticism of Obama is called RAAACIST! Anyone who inquires about the many mysteries surrounding his “missing years” or his activities while in college and in his early days in Chicago is called every name in the book in the efforts to discredit that questioner.

Why is that?

What’s Barack Obama hiding…and what is the Left going to such lengths to keep hidden?

Could it all boil down to something as simple as Barack Obama being gay?

Is THAT what all the enigma, subterfuge, and Alinsky Goon Squad assaults are all really about?

Is Barack Obama our first down-low, closeted gay President and is Michelle Antoinette Obama our first fully-complicit “beard” of a First Lady?

As the agenda-driven media is always so quick to say when a conservative is accused of anything: you be the judge

*******************************************************************************

Men Barack Obama Has Dated:

[ Pakistani "roommate" whom Barack Obama lived with during college; this is apparently the same man that Obama traveled to Pakistan (or as Obama calls it, POCK-ee-STAHan) with in the 1980s when American citizens were not allowed into the country. This is the trip where Barack Obama used his Indonesian passport to get into Pakistan instead of using his American passport. There have never been two straight males in the history of the world who have sat on the couch together like this. ]



[ Actor Kal Penn (whom Barack Obama dated from 2008 during his campaign until 2009 when Penn was given a mysterious role in the White House to fill; Penn abruptly left the White House after possibly being sexually harassed or otherwise breaking up with Barack Obama). ]



[ You can already read the distance between Reggie Love and Barack Obama growing in the photo above. On November 10th, 2011 the White House issued a press release announcing Barack Obama's breakup with Reggie Love, whom the White House identified as Obama's favorite "body man". No clue was given at the time as to who the next man in the President's life would be. ]

Let's have that argument. Please.

OK, I'm here to please you. Let's have this argument, right now.

First, please read this paragraph that Carolyn posted. Read it 4 or 5 times, or more, until you are SURE that you comprehend it's meaning. It's obvious that your stupid president, and his LYING trolls do not get it.

Then fire off your best shot, OK?

"The company was shut down in 2001. Romney left Bain in 1999, long before the plant closing, to run Winter Olympics. Two years is an eternity in the business world. Blaming Romney for decisions made two years after the left the company is at best disingenuous."

So.................your point is what?

Please bring this info into your argument that we are having on this matter.

BTW, where is your argument on this matter? I thought you wanted to discuss it?

Lavine, according to the Los Angeles Times, is a top Obama bundler and a managing director at Bain Capital. Lavine, who has raised over $100,000 for the president, was at the firm when GST Steel declared bankruptcy. So according to the Obama team's logic, Romney, who had left Bain, is responsible for GST Steel's demise, but Lavine, who was there, is not? Expect to hear more about this connection

Ken, try not to react as a typical hysterical Lib to the honor afforded a great American. Rush has the courage to speak truth daily - despite receiving serious threats from many deranged Democrats.

Arrest black supremacists or free the white ones

Exclusive: Mychal Massie says Obama appears disinterested in protecting Caucasians
by Mychal Massie
Tuesday, May 15, 2012
wnd.com


Last week, a group of 10 white supremacists were arrested in an FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force operation in Orlando, Fla., for allegedly planning for an “inevitable race war.” The supremacist group is accused of being armed “to the teeth” and conducting drills in preparation for a race war against blacks and Jews. They were allegedly targeting Orlando City Hall and other locations. They allegedly had also discussed making ricin, a deadly poison.

I say these people should be released and left alone until this same governmental task force or another with similar powers arrests members of the New Black Panther Party (NBPP), along with Jesse Jackson, and Al Sharpton. The NBPP called for 5,000 volunteers in Sanford, Fla., to help hunt down George Zimmerman, who shot and killed Trayvon Martin, a black teenager, in self-defense. They also made ominous overtures toward the Sanford Police and prosecutor Angela Corey, saying, “If the government won’t do the job, we’ll do it.”

These threats should be taken seriously. There has been a spate of random police shootings in the last year; an unambiguous threat such as they made should have been taken seriously. They circulated a “Wanted Dead or Alive” poster of George Zimmerman, at a press conference. They placed a $10,000 bounty on the head of Mr. Zimmerman, which they raised to a million-dollar bounty. The monies for the bounty were solicited across state lines – they called on black professional athletes, actors and personalities to contribute to it.

The NBPP has openly called for the killing of “white babies.” Michelle Williams, NBPP chief of staff in Tampa, told blacks on a conference call: “I just want to say to all the listeners on this phone call, that if you are having any doubt about getting suited, booted and armed up for this race war that we’re in that has never ended, let me tell you somethin’ … the thing that’s about to happen [to] these honkies, these crackers, these pigs, these people, these motherf—ers … it has been long overdue. … I’m kinda pi–ed off right now that the state of Florida ain’t on fire. This could not have happened in L.A. because them brothers up there are not scared to riot. This could not have happened in St. Petersburg, Florida, where the black man over there ain’t scared to kill a cracker.” (Courtesy of Breitbart.com; posted by Erica Ritz, April 8.

During the same conference call, Chawn Kweli, a NBPP national spokesman, said: “And there are those who wish they could stand in this hour, to see the destruction of the devil’s world and the devil’s society – and [I] ain’t talking about no dude underneath the ground with a pitchfork and pantyhose. I’m talking about that blond-haired, blue-eyed, sometimes brown-eyed, Caucasian walkin’ around with a mindset, a demonistic mindset, and a nature to do evil and brutality.”

AL Sharpton and Jesse Jackson fomented anger and stoked the flames of violence during their rallies in Sanford. As Breitbart.com reported, the NBPP called for a race war and to “kill a cracker for Trayvon.”

Hashim Nzinga, the NBPP leader who called for the vigilante capture of Mr. Zimmerman, was literally only hours later arrested for illegally being in possession of a firearm as a convicted felon – when he sold a high-end firearm to Stone Mountain Pawn Shop, in DeKalb County, Ga.

The NBPP has long called for killing whites, and yet the Obama White House and Justice Department either do not take these threats seriously or are not interested in protecting white people. Since Martin was killed, there have been many instances of blacks committing violent acts against whites and then making reference to the acts being “for Trayvon.”

And yet the Obama administration has an FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force arrest a white supremacist group. I haven’t heard about a white person killing, car-jacking, or attacking a black person and then saying that it is “for George Zimmerman.”

This is the climate in which Fox News Channel is providing safe harbor for the avowed racist Jehmu Greene. Fox News has refused to return my phone calls or respond to emails by outraged, soon-to-be former viewers. Fox News has an obligation to show that they will not contribute to the teeming caldron of black racism.

We should not make room in America for racism and/or those who are working to incite racial discord. Nor should we be tolerant of a Jehmu Greene who has a long history of association with Marxist anarchist groups like ACORN – who not only harbor racist feelings but brazenly spew racist epithets in national public venues.

Fox has an obligation, at the very least, to suspend Greene without pay or never again make mention of a crime committed by a white person against a black. Just as the Obama administration must either release and apologize to the white supremacists arrested in Orlando or have the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force arrest the leadership of the NBPP, along with Al Sharpton, and Jesse Jackson.

The company failed 2 years after Romney left...

So did 44 other steel companies because of foreign dumping. Your point is?

Obama once again has tried and failed with this.
