Chris Dodd's emergency responder/McCain has gone Right
politico.com ^

Posted on 12/11/2009 4:48:12 AM PST by Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!

ANSWERING THE ALARM: As the president and first lady return to Washington from Oslo, Vice President Biden heads out on a trip to New England to campaign for Sen. Chris Dodd (D-Conn.) The VP will appear with Dodd at a fire station in East Hartford, Conn., where authorities have been given $3.39 million in stimulus funds to build a new facility - and where fire fighters successfully extinguished a five-alarm fire earlier this week.

Whether Biden can perform the same kind of emergency response for Dodd's reelection campaign is another story...

Also, The Obama extension campaign headquarters is doing a hitpiece on McCain, for going-RIGHT and anti-Obama.

http://www.politico.com/

I wonder if the wonderful politico, will be doing any reporting on the omnibus or ObamaCare bill?

An inquiring citizen wants to know.

Agreed regarding McCain. My overall point in frustration that has hit it’s peak this morning; is as of yesterday not one MSM outlet has reported on all of the pork in the current omnibus bill.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2404767/posts

I apologize for the length of my post but I am sick to death of the MSM not reporting anything but partisan hackery for Obama with ONLY -every once in awhile- a truth piece on Obama.

Come to think of it are they reporting on ACORN getting back in the saddle with all of their funding returned? Or how about the Navy Seals on trial

or these facts?

The history of the current President of the United States of America, Barack Obama, is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these United States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

1. He has violated his oath to defend the US Constitution by exercising powers forbidden by the Constitution.

Barack Obama seems to have a disdain for the US Constitution. Curiously he used to teach the Constitution. The then Senator Obama said of his time as a professor at the University of Chicago: ”I was a constitutional law professor, which means unlike the current president I actually respect the Constitution.” It’s nice to know he respects the Constitution. It’s too bad he does not preserve, protect and defend the Constitution also. [1][2][3][4][5][6][8][11][12][14] [15][16][18][20][21][22][24][25][28][29] [31][37][38][39][40][43][44]

2. He has used public money to purchase private companies.

Obama’s administration purchased General Motors. The Constitution forbids the government from buying and running private industries.[2][38][40]

3. He has illegally tried to use public money to create publicly owned companies.

Obama’s government tried to create a health insurance company. The Constitution forbids the government from doing this.[3]

4. He has embezzled public money allocated by Congress for rescuing distressed private financial institutions, and used it to purchase automobile manufacturing companies.

The public tax money Obama used for the General Motors purchase was designated by law for the support of distressed financial companies. It was not to be used for anything else. Obama took Congresses money and spent it on a car company against the law of Congress.[4]

5. He has given our public money to finance foreign automobile companies.

The so-called “Cash for Clunkers” program redistributed the public tax money and gave it to car dealers. The overwhelming majority of the automobiles purchased were of foreign make. Much of the money for those automobiles wound up lining the pockets of foreign automobile manufacturers.[5]

6. He has given our public money to a foreign state to finance their state-run oil company while refusing to allow us to develop our own oil resources.

Obama financed a Brazilian oil company using public tax money to search for foreign oil in Brazil. The company, Brazil-owned Petrobras, was a wealthy state run company, perfectly capable of doing the search itself. This was effectively a gift of US tax money to the investors in the company and its owner. At the same time we have plenty of oil in the US to search for and produce, especially in Alaska, and yet Obama denies us the right to develop our own oil resources.[6][7]

7. He has violated the principle of balance of powers by usurping Congress’ role of law maker.

Even the more radical leftists in Congress complained about his power grab. According to the complaints of the leftist politicians Obama is usurping the power of lawmaker from Congress through his czars.[8]

8. He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.

Obama’s financial plans for the recovery are based on communist, socialist and fascist ideas with no history of success, and every history of failure. While forcing these pre-doomed plans onto the economy, he would not execute economic practices that are know to work. He pursued tax-and-spend economic policies, while refusing supply-side, tax cut based plans. This has extended the suffering caused by the recession. He tried to help the issues in banking without having a clear plan.[9][23]

9. He has ignored the laws protecting us from the insolvency of financial institutions.

According to bankruptcy law, specifically the Prompt Corrective Action law, failed banks are supposed to close and go into receivership to the government. Obama ignored the law. Instead he propped up failing banks artificially using public tax money and nationalized them. The law exists for a reason. It protects the banking system from collapse.[51][52]

10. He has demanded and implemented Tax-and-Spend laws that inevitably lead to economic collapse.

Obama claimed promised to not raise taxes as President. He raised taxes by turning them into debt to be paid later. He is also trying to raise taxes by driving up the costs of energy which especially hurts the poor. [10]

11. He has obstructed the Administration of Justice by appointing a judge to the Supreme Court based not on ability to interpret the Constitution, but on radical ideology and color of skin.

Obama’s choice for Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor was certainly based on her latino heritage. She also has a history of radicalism that makes it clear that her legal judgment is heavily slanted. [11][24][25]

12. He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Czars to harass our people and eat out their substance.

Other Presidents have had czars, or the equivalent. Obama has created more of them than any other President. His czars are more radical and on the political fringe than those of any other President in history. Through them his is overriding the role of Congress as lawmaker.[13][26]

13. He has violated the balance of powers by appointing Czars with far reaching powers who are accountable to no one but himself.

The President’s cabinet needs to be approved by Congress. The Founders set things up this way for a reason. Obama’s czars form a shadow cabinet. Sometimes the czars have as much power as the cabinet members. The czars sometimes create laws which is a responsibility of Congress.[12][22]

14. He has as a matter of patronage stolen private industries from shareholders and given them to workers’ unions.

After Obama took over GM and Chrysler, he gave a large ownership of the companies to the Auto Workers unions. These unions were big supporters of his during the Presidential election.[14]

15. He has substantially benefitted his political financial supporters by giving public money to foreign industries.

George Soros is a huge supporter of Obama and his causes. Just days before Obama gave billions of public tax money to Brazil-owned Petrobras, Soros made a big financial move that earned him millions from Obama’s gift.[32][33]

16. He has arranged very large unscrupulous deals with private companies to exchange public money for his political advertising.

Obama arranged large potential deals with pharmacy companies. Those same companies gave large amounts of money to Obama for his presidential campaign. They have the ability to give more large amounts in the next election.[34][35]

17. He has attempted to create a public industry, a health insurance company, that would compete with existing and similar private industries in open defiance of the consent of the people, and the letter and intent of the Constitution.

This cause for impeachment, of course, is the imfamous H.R.3200 unconstitutional and very unpopular socialized medicine bill. The overwhelming majority of the US population doesn’t want it, yet he still insists on forcing it on us.[15][28][29][41][42]

18. He has attempted to annul free of speech by setting up an illegal reporting system for recording the names of dissenters and by publicly attacking private citizens who oppose him.

He set up a reporting system for people to email “tattle tales” about possibly incorrect or misleading information about H.R.3200 to his office. This would create a dampening effect on the people’s First Amendment right to discuss legislation. He also has openly and publicly attacked private citizens from his office. He is presently attempting to financially punish the forms of media, namely talk radio, which are most critical of him, effectively charging those media companies an unconscienable tax, one equal to their earnings, to stay in business. He intends to use those taxes to pay for equivalents to those forms of media that he controls.[16][21][37][39]

19. He has counted illegal aliens as citizens to skew his standing with Congress.

Obama is intending in the 2010 census to count all people in the US without questioning their citizenship status. This brings the US one step further in losing our national identity. This false counting of the people gives those districts with large numbers of illegal aliens greater representation in the House of Representatives. This is effectively turning the government over to a foreign power to some degree. This is an act of treason.[44]

20. He has illegally fired Inspectors General who found wrong-doing with his political crones.

Obama fired nspector General Walpin in an illegal manner after Walpin discovered legal improprieties committed by Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson, one of Obama’s political supporters. Obama did not give a reason for his firing. In a like manner, he fired Inspector General David Hoffman after Hoffman found wrongdoings with a nephew of Chicago’s infamous Mayor Daley, who is a longtime political associate of Obama’s.[17][30]

21. He has attempted to insert himself into even the most personal life experience, our end of life care.

Part of Obama’s unconstitutional H.R.3200 contains a provision for government evaluation and counseling for end of life care and potentially provides a paid service that affects the income of the counselor, benefiting them if the patient dies. This is horribly immoral.[31]

22. He has attempted to refuse to pay for medical treatment for wounded soldiers.

In an unbelievably disgraceful act, Obama tried to talk the Veterans Administration into having US soldiers pay for their medical treatment for wounds received in combat using their own medical insurance.[36]

23. He has refused his assent to Laws of Congress, exercising false powers of veto that are contrary and insubordinate to the Constitution.

Congress passed a bill directing how money from the International Monetary Fund should be spend. Obama effectively vetoed sections of the bill, saying that they interfered with his ability to conduct foreign relations. According the Constitution Obama does not have the right to conduct foreign relations, except as provided by Congress. He invented a nonexistent right to a line item veto, and then justified it with a nonexistent right to conduct foreign relations which were themselves contrary to the requirements of Congress.[18]

24. He has contradicted and violated the rule of law regarding bankruptcy after forcing the failure of one of our largest automakers.

According to bankruptcy law, secured creditors get paid by the bankrupt organization before unsecured creditors. When Chrysler went into bankruptcy Obama gave the United Auto Workers $0.50 on the dollar for their unsecured debt, while giving the shareholders only $0.25 on the dollar for their secured debt. This is in complete contradiction to bankruptcy law.[19]

25. He has appointed a Secretary of State who is ineligible for office.

Obama appointed President Clinton’s wife, Hillary Clinton, to Secretary of State even though she is clearly illegal according to the Constitution. No Senator who votes for an increase in salary for a Cabinet office, such as Secretary of State, can be eligible for that office for a given period of time. Obama decided to ignore the Constitution, and appointed Clinton anyway.[54]

26. He has attempted to force all citizens into mandatory servitude to the government.

Obama originally planned to force every US citizen to do some kind of social work for the government for a minimum number of hours per year. Then he tried to make this applicable to only minors, which would also violate the child labor laws. [20][43]

27. He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our lands, the merciless Islamo-fascist terrorists whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions.

Obama promised to close the prisons for terrorists in Guantamo Bay in Cuba. To close this he will have to bring the prisoners to the US. He has also been actively involved with US radicals as a “community organizer” where he taught, preached and encouraged social disruption that favored radical socialists, communists and other alien ideologies.[48][49][50][53]

28. He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their Public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.

Obama has supported large complex bills that were produced for review only hours before Congress had the opportunity to vote on them. The members of Congress had no time to review the bills. The citizens did not have the opportunity to review and discuss them. The Constitution requires that the public be able to review and discuss legislation. Obama is required by his duty under his oath to veto all such bills.[45][46][47]

29. He has combined with Communist, Socialists and Fascists to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our American character, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation.

Most notably, the Communists, Socialists and Fascists are Obama czars. He has a long history of associating and supporting such individuals.

30. He has, in collusion with an insolent and irresponsible Congress, imposed Taxes against our consent not only on us, but also on our beloved children and our grandchildren denying them any representation.

Obama executed H.R.1, misnamed the “Stimulus Bill,” under the pretense that this bill would help fix the recession, when in reality it appears it had more to do with political payolla for support for his candidacy for President. The debt incurred by this bill and other similar bill will take generations to pay off. Future generations had no say in these imposed taxes, so this is a classic example of the crime of taxation without representation.

31. He has nullified parts of our Constitution, abolishing our most valuable Laws and altering fundamentally our Form of Government.

I am adding 32.

32. Aiding, abetting and providing comfort to the enemy via directives as CIC of ROE that put troops in danger for their lives. Calling for the enemy (terrorists) to obtain Miranda Rights in the war zone and have a trial on the very soil they flew airplanes into causing massive death and terror.

From what I gathered, it was the fact that many of the early primary states had open primaries. Many Dems crossed over and voted for McLame to boost him above better GOP candidates, knowing that he was a weak sister.

Huckabee, the snake oil salesman, also contributed in a big way by staying in the race for so long and splitting the GOP voting. If the Huckster had dropped out much earlier, then McLame may have had a chance of winning. ....As bad as that would be, it would STILL be better than what we now have as a president.

I can’t stand Juan McLame because of his left leaning voting and refusal to attack Obama on various issues during the campaign, his support for amnesty for illegal aliens, and much more (like smooching with Lindy Graham on too many liberal issues).

If the GOP wanted a moderate why was Rudy not forefront, he had a better chance of beating Obama.

I disagree with you kindly. I think Huckabee is far better and Romney is the snake oil salesman. If we had to chose.

Just how the hell did McLame (RINO John) ever get the nomination in the first place?

I want people to really think about this. Bush was a moderate, not a conservative. Look what he put in place while he was president. Still the left tried to demolish everything he did from trying to protect national security even right down to voting FOR a stimulus package.

The MSM/left are going to do what they do REGARDLESS of who the republican is or what they do because the MSM/dems are a party not only full of phonies, but haters! They foisted McCain upon US because they know he (rino) will side with them more than his own party!

McCain was select by the MSM and all the fencesitting whimps in the republican party went along because they think it's more important to be LIKED than to do what is absoulutely right for the country! This thinking is so typical of cowards. People who can't stand steadfast and lead.

Bush turned the republican party back into a moderate caldron of whimps. This is why McCain was selected. We have to change it back to conservative!

We have to STOP this thinking of one candidate is better than the other if we have to chose. B.S! It's either a conservative, with conservative principles we know we can count on, or nobody. I never want to chose between the better moderate or rino.

NO MORE RINO's.

Another associate said McCain may have a more political rationale for becoming more partisan, noting that the senator may face a serious primary from the right next year should former Rep. J.D. Hayworth run.

Finally, near the end of three pages, they get to the real reason for McCain's drift to the right. McCain is out for McCain and it's not much more complicated than that.

All true save for the fact that much of this was with the willing help of Congress. Therein lies a bigger problem. The people have very few options but we’re coming to the decision point.

**NO MORE RINO’s.**

And a reminder to the McLAME psychophants... the ONLY reason McQUEEG did as Well as he did WAS the SARAH factor... if not for SARAH... McQueeg would NOT have gotten my vote.

Romney... LOL ... inflicted a version of Obamacare on Massachusetts

Huckabee or ... the HUCKSTER wanted to by law inflict his Get Healthy plan on all of us. Huck is as much a RINO as McQUEEG, only he’s better at HIDING IT. Lived in ARK under Huck... was just like NY under CUOMO (lived there too)
