Stimulus Saves Jobs in Nonexistent Districts
November 18, 2009 on 7:02 am | In Economic Policies, Freedom, Fundamental Transformation | No CommentsPresident Obama is claiming success through his $787 billion stimulus package by way of the administration’s website recovery.gov. Visitors to the website will find that hundreds of jobs have been created or saved all across the country. Here are some of the statistics reported by recovery.gov:
• $34 million in stimulus money has been spent in Arizona’s 86th congressional district in a project for the Navajo Housing authority, which is actually located in the 1st congressional district.
• In Oklahoma, recovery.gov lists more than $19 million in spending — and 15 jobs created.
• In Iowa, it shows $10.6 million spent – and 39 jobs created.
• In Connecticut’s 42nd district, the Web site claims 25 jobs created with zero stimulus dollars.
The problem is these districts do not exist.
The list of spending and job creation in fictional congressional districts goes beyond just the 50 states. Stimulus money and job creation and saving extend to U.S. territories as well. Here is what territories outside the U.S, have received from tax payers:
• $68.3 million spent and 72.2 million spent in the 1st congressional district of the U.S. Virgin Islands.
• $8.4 million spent and 40.3 jobs created in the 99th congressional district of the U.S. Virgin Islands.
• $1.5 million spent and .3 jobs created in the 69th district and $35 million for 142 jobs in the 99th district of the Northern Mariana Islands.
• $47.7 million spent and 291 jobs created in Puerto Rico’s 99th congressional district.
The Washington Examiner has been tracking stories from media outlets who report the fake job claims being made by the Obama administration. To date, their investigation reports that of the 640,000 jobs saved or created by the stimulus package, 75,343 do not exist. The Washington Examiner provides an interactive “Bogus Jobs” map for Americans to track the bogus jobs around the country.
President Obama sold Americans on the $787 billion stimulus bill by creating a sense of urgency along with his promise that unemployment would never rise above 7.8%. The current rate of unemployment in the U.S. is 10.2%. President Obama also promised Americans that the U.S. economy would provide 138.6 million jobs. As is stands, Obama has fallen short by 7.8 million.
THINK: The president’s promises have come up short and the administration has taken to reporting false information in order to make the situation look better than it truly is. In an average business in America, what would an employer do with this? What would an annual performance review look like for the employee who engaged in falsifying data?
DO YOU TRUST THIS MAN? Do you trust the people he surrounds himself with?
Documentary Answers the Question: Global Warming Science or Religion?
November 17, 2009 on 2:25 pm | In Economic Policies, Freedom, Fundamental Transformation | No CommentsA new documentary that seeks to debunk the environmental extremists Global Warming movement is scheduled to air via webcast and radio broadcast on Tuesday, November 17 at 7:00pm. The film called “Not Evil Just Wrong” is a creation by Phelim McAleer and Ann McElhinney that will provide facts to counter the myths of the “sky-is-falling” crowd. The webcast is set to clearly define the distortions and marketing strategy involved in the Global Warming (Climate Change) religion.
This important presentation will show why the leadership in America has embraced the movement that will ultimately end in total control over the lives of the citizens and the plan to use population control to satisfy this desire. Not Evil Just Wrong will show Americans exactly why their jobs, lifestyle and dreams for their children are at risk. Viewers will understand just how industries that rely on fossil fuels will be crippled by government imposed, job-killing regulations during this recessionary time. Ordinary heads-of-household will talk about how small towns will become bastions of unemployment and poverty.
McAleer and McElhinney will explain exactly how it is that the theory of Global Warming (Climate Change) is unjustified by science. No Evil Just Wrong will go so far as to expose the deceptions that experts, politicians, educators and the media have been delivering to the public for many years. The film will show that man-made pollution is not melting the polar icecaps; the ocean will not rise 20 feet in a flash; and the only polar bears dying because of man are the ones who try to eat men.
Finally, the film makers will shatter the myth that the hottest years in the United States were 1998 and 2006. They point the fact that the hottest year on record was 1934, and the hottest decade was the 1930s; a time when there were half as many people and no SUVs or jumbo jets.
The webcast will include Tim Wildmon and Crane Durham of AFA as well as other guests that include members of Congress and business people. Live blogging and phone calls to the program are expected.
AP Poll: Americans Worried About Healthcare Reform Costs
November 16, 2009 on 9:39 pm | In Freedom, Fundamental Transformation, Healthcare | No CommentsAccording to a recent Associated Press poll, Americans are concerned about the hidden costs of healthcare legislation. The doubters of the bill include Democrats in the Senate.
When 1502 adults were polled from October 29 to November 8, forty-three percent said they do not like the healthcare reform that is being proposed by Congress. Forty-one percent said they support the proposal and 15 percent are still undecided on the issue.
Even though the margins seem close, the opponents of healthcare reform seem to have much stronger opinions than do the supporters. Katie Huhn of Acworth, GA summed up the opposing sentiment with this statement, “Well, for one, I know nobody wants to pay taxes for anybody else to go to the doctor—I don’t…I don’t want to pay for somebody to use my money that I could be using for myself.”
11 New Videos of Children Singing Praises to Obama
November 5, 2009 on 5:12 am | In Freedom, Fundamental Transformation | No CommentsEleven new videos of school children singing praises to Barack Obama have emerged. I have included nine of the videos here. You will want to watch and pass on to your friends quickly. One of the videos has been removed from YouTube and a second has removed the ability to share it.
In an effort to get the video out quickly, I have not included the transcripts. You can click here to see the transcripts of each video.
As you go down the list, the children singing his praises are younger and younger. Be sure to watch the last video!
While you are watching, REMEMBER: President Obama has never denounced the making of these types of videos.
This is not a joke! We must refuse to allow this type of indoctrination in our schools!
DO YOU TRUST THIS MAN? Do you trust the people he surrounds himself with?
GOP Offers Alternative to Democrat Healthcare Reform Bill
November 3, 2009 on 7:50 pm | In Freedom, Healthcare | No CommentsThe Republicans in the House of Representatives have produced a response to the Democrat’s 1990 page healthcare bill. The 230-page alternative, presented by House Minority Leader John Boehner is focused on lowering healthcare costs for Americans, as opposed to expanding healthcare coverage. While the Associated Press has obtained a draft of the bill, aides to Representative Boehner made clear the measure is not final and changes are still being made.
The current Republican version from the House addresses conservative issues that would address the high costs of healthcare. The GOP proposal includes:
- Increased incentives on health savings accounts
- Caps non-economic jury awards in malpractice cases at $250,000
- Offers incentives for states that will aim to drive down premium costs
- Allows health insurance to be sold across state lines, increasing competition and lowering premiums costs
- Includes a permanent ban on any federal funding for abortions (except in cases of rape, incest or threat to the life of the mother)
“As Leader Boehner has made clear, our proposal will focus on the No. 1 concern of the American people—reducing health care costs, and we do it at a price tag our nation can afford,” said spokeswoman Antonia Ferrier, though Republicans have not said how much their bill would cost.
“Our proposal will help struggling middle-class families and small businesses by increasing access to affordable, high-quality health care,” Ferrier said.
Democrats are not taking the Republican plan seriously. House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer(D-MD) told reporters “[The GOP alternative] does little to provide security and stability to all Americans, doesn’t provide insurance availability for all Americans, does little to expand access to coverage.” Hoyer went on to say, “Ours is vastly superior and we think the American public will think that.”
While the Democrats are saying they expect to vote on Nancy Peolsi’s bill this week, they are still working on ironing out the final language for parts of the bill including government funded abortions and government health benefits for illegal immigrants. With that, Hoyer says he is confident of a Democrat victory before Veteran’s Day (Wednesday, November 11).
Meanwhile, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) has not yet released the details of his (and a few others) healthcare bill that was written in secret. As it stands, the Senate debate may not begin much before Thanksgiving.
The Democratic leadership has ignored the American people since the beginning of the healthcare debate. With the latest poll numbers from Rasmussen, they may want to reconsider their power grab. Rasmussen is reporting:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi introduced the House version of health care reform legislation last week, but most voters are still opposed to the effort.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 42% now favor the health care plan proposed by President Obama and congressional Democrats. That’s down from 45% a week ago but unchanged from two weeks ago.
Fifty-four percent (54%) now oppose the legislative effort, up three points since last week.
Seventy-three percent (73%) of liberals support the plan, but just 18% of conservatives agree.
Only 23% of all voters Strongly Support the plan while nearly twice as many (44%) are Strongly Opposed.
As Scott Rasmussen, recently wrote in the Wall Street Journal: “The most important fundamental is that 68% of American voters have health insurance coverage they rate good or excellent. … Most of these voters approach the health care reform debate fearing that they have more to lose than to gain.”
The American people appear to be educating themselves on the effects of the plan President Obama and his administration want to implement. It will be interesting to see what the people think of the Republican suggestion.
