Obama the Socialist Tax Hiker

Falcon:

Obama is so motivated to raise taxes and increase the size of government that he could care less about the fiscal cliff and would be happy if we were all dependent on government to coddle us from birth to the grave such as socialist countries do.

He actually believes we should be like Europe where everyone is dependent on government for their livelihood or well being.  This way we can all be the same regardless of the human spirit that has driven America for the past 200 plus years something which will die.

Obama’s world is one of a few government officials on the upper rung of society managing the rest of the servants lingering below which is the entire population less a few of his socialist friends.  This guy wants to destroy our economy and that’s all there is to it.  The guy in my opinion is a nut case and it was nut cases who put him back in office for another four years.  By the time they realize their mistake, twice now it will be too late to clean it up.

Hillary Hideout

Falcon:

I see where Hillary is still hiding out so as not to appear and explain why the administration failed to protect the ambassador and three others killed during the terrorist attack on the embassy in Libya.

It’s also been made public but not by the Obama run newspapers or TV news that the four employees whose dereliction of duty for not adequately protecting the embassy in Benghazi have not been fired but just moved around state to another location in order to continue to draw their salary and benefits although they are incompetent and not accountable by government standards for their mistakes as they would be in the private sector.

There just isn’t any shame in this administration or ethics when it comes to honesty.

‘Time’less Obama

Falcon:

Why in hell would Time magazine name Obama man of the year?  I can’t think of one thing he’s done to warrant such an award, if that’s what it is if not met to be a joke.

This Obama has done nothing to heal the problems our country faces other than making most of them worse.  He’s  failed to produce a budget since being in office plus he’s not done much of anything about the recession and what he has done has all failed, with the exception of putting our grandchildren further in debt to the Chinese.  Then when his worthless healthcare cranks up we’ll be so bad off nothing will save us unless he resigns.

We have a government that can’t manage the post office, Medicare, Medicaid, or Social Security along with many other so called programs and now they think they can manage the healthcare industry.  Government is our worst enemy with Obama at the helm thanks to a lying press along with the Obama biased TV news and the votes of people that have no value added input to our country through only taking value.

Hang on folks the worst is yet to happen and be assured it will with Obama at the helm.  By the way one of his cost saving plans is to reduce the COLA (which is already little to nothing) for those on Social Security but of course he didn’t mention it during his campaign.  Sooner or later all the lies will rise to the surface and people will begin to understand how they were duped again into voting for him.

Liberal Lies

Falcon:

All these liberal government and media employees are hypocrites because they say one thing and do just the opposite trying to keep the masses in the dark about their political correct bs.  Obama’s kids go to a school with armed guards as do many of the talking heads from liberal news-land and elsewhere whose kids also attend guarded schools.  Don’t forget their self importance allows them to lie in order to support what they try to deny the masses through crooked politics,  misleading news stories or just plain censoring of the news by not printing or talking about it which is a common method used by the press and television news.

The objective of these talking dimwits is to get gun control just like the Attorney General tried to do through his failed Fast and Furious program.  Liberals will stoop to anything to get their stupid agendas passed through our worthless deadbeat do nothing congress and if not that way by regulations or mandates through the liberal administration and their EPA storm trooper organization.

Outright lying is a way of life for liberal people to achieve their agendas regardless of the collateral damage it inflicts on the population who only want to be left alone by these liberal talking and print heads out to destroy our democracy.
