Tea Party Launches 'Obama Phone' Ad - NYTimes.com

Tea Party Launches 'Obama Phone' Ad - NYTimes.com: "Last month the Drudge Report hyped a video of an African-American woman at an Ohio rally claiming the president had given her a free phone. “Everybody in Cleveland, low minorities, got Obama phones…Keep Obama in president, you know! He gave us a phone, he’s gonna do more.” Dozens of news sites took it upon themselves to explain that the Obama campaign was not in fact operating an electronics-for-votes ring in swing states, but that there is in fact a government program that provides low-income people with free or cheap phones. It started under George W. Bush, not his successor."

OBAMA'S OWN WORDS TRAP HIM:
2008: "Navy Seal Team 6 is Cheney's private assassination team."
2011: "I put together Seal Team 6 to take out Bin Laden."
2008: "Bin Laden is innocent until proven guilty, and must be captured alive and given a fair trial."
2011: "I authorized Seal Team 6 to kill Bin Laden."
2008: " Guantanamo is entirely unnecessary, and the detainees should not be interrogated."
2011: "Vital intelligence was obtained from Guantanamo detainees that led to our locating Bin Laden."
I HOPE THIS GETS SENT AROUND TO PEOPLE WHO CARE ABOUT THE TRUTH!

Jason Todd Ready, reputed neo-Nazi, among five dead in Arizona murder-suicide

Mass murderers tend to use First-Middle-Last Name.

The Daily Breast

A white-supremacist border vigilante who was ordained into the Mormon Church priesthood by the sponsor of Arizona’s immigration law apparently slaughtered a toddler and three others before killing himself in a quiet Phoenix suburb Wednesday.

In his final act of attention-getting, Jason Todd Ready, 39, evidently shot and killed his 47-year-old girlfriend, Lisa Lynn Mederos, a homemaker; her 23-year-old daughter, Amber Mederos, a Wendy’s worker; Amber’s 16-month-old toddler, Lily, and Jim “Jambob” Hiott, a 24-year-old veteran of the war in Afghanistan who had moved from South Carolina to be with girlfriend Amber.

He was a disgraced Marine, exiled Republican precinct committeeman, and failed city-council candidate who is most famous in Arizona for his publicity-seeking white supremacist stunts and his association with Arizona’s immigration-law sponsor, now-recalled state senator Russell Pearce.

Two years ago, Ready told me Pearce was his “mentor” and “surrogate father figure” who “groomed me” for a “national-level” political career. Pearce, Ready said, espoused “neo-Nazi philosophy completely.”

“We laughed at Mexican jokes right on his porch,” Ready said of Pearce.

CBSNews - Police said Thursday that they believe a former Marine with ties to neo-Nazi and Minutemen groups shot four people and then took his own life in a suburban Phoenix home.

Pictures: Cops believe neo-Nazi killed 4, self, in Ariz.

Gilbert police spokesman Sgt. Bill Balafas said Thursday that police believe Jason Todd Ready, 39, was the gunman in Wednesday's shootings in a home in Gilbert.

Media reports say that among the four others killed were Ready's girlfriend and the woman's daughter and granddaughter.

Ready was known in Arizona for organizing a militia in the desert with the goal of finding illegal immigrants and drug smugglers. Known as "J.T.," Ready led an outfit known as the U.S. Border guard that dressed in military fatigues and body armor and carried assault rifles during patrols for illegal immigrants in the desert south of Phoenix.

Authorities say the victims include 15-month-old Lily Lynn Mederos; 23-year-old Amber Nieve Mederos; 47-year-old Lisa Lynn Mederos and 24-year-old Jim Franklin Hiott.

Haley catches flak with Mitt support - POLITICO.com Print View

Haley catches flak with Mitt support - POLITICO.com Print View: "Nikki Haley’s attempt to boost Mitt Romney is threatening her own support here at home.

Romney’s campaign is using the South Carolina governor’s endorsement to build his acceptance among the tea party base that’s never been comfortable with his candidacy, especially in a state where Newt Gingrich has been running even stronger than elsewhere.

But the people in that base who propelled Haley to the governor’s mansion last year see the endorsement of the more moderate Romney as abandoning them — and giving them another reason to turn away from a governor whose approval rating has dropped to 34.6 percent.

Immediately after Haley announced her support Friday morning on “Fox and Friends,” her Facebook page lit up with accusations that the first-term governor was selling out her principles. Rush Limbaugh followed with a blistering broadside against her on his radio show Friday, leading a charge of conservatives nationally, in addition to locally, who accused her of selling out.."

West compares Dems to Nazis. Again. - POLITICO.com Print View

West compares Dems to Nazis. Again. - POLITICO.com Print View: "In a handwritten note to a fellow lawmaker, Rep. Allen West reiterated his charge that Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels would “truly be proud” of the “Democrat Party” because of its use of “lies and deceit,” escalating an already tense battle over his use of Nazi comparisons.

On Thursday, Rep. John Conyers (D-Mich.), the most senior black lawmaker in Congress, wrote to West, one of two black freshmen on the Republican side, to say that he was disappointed in a remark that West had made to reporters earlier in the day.

“He was a vicious notorious anti-Semite who went down in history as propagandist for Hitler. I beg of you to help raise the level of congressional discourse so that we can engage in vigorous debate without resort[ing] to personal attacks,” Conyers wrote on congressional stationery."

Cain bows out - POLITICO.com Print View

Cain bows out - POLITICO.com Print View: "Herman Cain bowed out of his presidential campaign Saturday, saying he was doing so because of “the continued distraction, the continued hurt to me and my family” after a series of accusations of sexual impropriety.

“We had to come to this conclusion that it would be best to suspend this campaign. That’s the bad news. The good news is, the pundits would like for me to shut up, drop out and go away,” he said at what was to have been his hometown headquarters opening.

But Cain insisted that’s not going to happen, announcing the launch of a website to show “the people are still in charge of this country,” he said — by promoting his trademark 9-9-9 tax plan and other positions."

Ohio Voters Have Nearly Enough Signatures To Block Gov. Kasich's Anti-Voter Law | ThinkProgress

Ohio Voters Have Nearly Enough Signatures To Block Gov. Kasich's Anti-Voter Law | ThinkProgress: "Earlier this year, Ohio Gov. John Kasich (R) signed a sweeping voter suppression bill which shortens the state’s early voting period, bans in-person early voting on Sundays, and prohibits boards of election from mailing absentee ballot requests to voters. In 2008, four in 10 votes in Ohio’s capitol city were cast using methods that would be eliminated by this anti-voter law."

Here's Rick Perry's Audacious Plan To Completely Reinvent The U.S. Government

• Cut Congressional pay in half and make Congress a part-time job. If they don't pass a balanced budget by 2020, Perry would cut Congressional pay in half again 
• Bring spending down to 18% GDP
• Criminalize "insider trading" by members of Congress
• Pass legislation requiring a two-thirds Congressional majority to pass any tax increases
• End life-time appointments of federal judges
• Pass a Constitutional amendment setting 18-year terms for Supreme Court justices
• Issue a moratorium on pending federal regulations
• Eliminate the Department of Commerce, Department of Education, and Department of Energy
• Overhaul the Department of Homeland Security and privatize airport security
• Downsize the Environmental Protection Agency "so it no longer torments job creators or gives an official stamp to phony science."
• Privatize Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac
• And of course, end federal funding of Planned Parenthood

Herman Cain stumbles badly on Libya question - - CBS News

Come on Cain. You're making brothers look bad.

The Arizona hate-monger goes down!

Most coverage of Tuesday’s night’s recall of state Senate President Russell Pearce (R) in Mesa, Arizona has focused on the fact that Russell authored the state’s controversial immigration legislation.

Pearce was defeated by Republican Jerry Lewis, a charter school executive, in a Republican primary that many may see as a referendum on a harsh immigration law similar to the one signed by Gov. Jan Brewer (R) and challenged by the Obama administration in the courts.

Immigration was a factor in his defeat — in large part because the Mormon Church decided that it should be. But an ethics scandal and under-handed campaign tactics also played a role.

"I feel that strongly about it. If we can get the necessary support and it comes to my desk I’ll sign it. That’s all I can do. I will sign it," he said.

Unfortunately for Cain, as Politico's Ben Smith points out, the president doesn't sign constitutional amendments. In fact, he plays essentially no role in the process.

Art Pope, Citizens United, and North Carolina Politics : The New Yorker

Art Pope, Citizens United, and North Carolina Politics : The New Yorker: "Phillips argues that the Court’s decision, in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, has been a “game changer,” especially in the realm of state politics. In swing states like North Carolina—which the Democrats consider so important that they have scheduled their 2012 National Convention there—an individual donor, particularly one with access to corporate funds, can play a significant, and sometimes decisive, role. “We didn’t have that before 2010,” Phillips says. “Citizens United opened up the door. Now a candidate can literally be outspent by independent groups. We saw it in North Carolina, and a lot of the money was traced back to Art Pope.”"

Herman Cain: Occupy Wall Street Protesters Are Un-American, Anti-Capitalist

I like Cain but this is too much!

Herman Cain:

 

Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain continued his criticism of the Occupy Wall Street movement on Wednesday, suggesting to reporters in Florida that the progressive protesters are un-American.

The Associated Press reports:

Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain says the Occupy Wall Street protesters are un-American and against capitalism.

Speaking to The Associated Press during a book signing event Wednesday in St. Petersburg, Fla., Cain said the protesters shouldn't rally against Wall Street bankers or brokers because "they're the ones who create the jobs."

Cain also used the anti-capitalist refrain earlier this week in describing the Occupy Wall Street movement. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Cain suggested that the protests were staged, and that the conditions demonstrators were speaking out against were consequences of their own actions, not of malpractice by Wall Street.

You heard him! Don’t quit!

 

OCCUPY WALLSTREET!!

The Perry flip-flop!
Rick Perry: I am going to be honest with the American people – USATODAY.com: "The first step to fixing a problem is honestly admitting there is a problem. America's goal must be to fix Social Security by making it more financially sound and sustainable for the long term. But Americans deserve a frank and honest discussion of the dire financial challenges facing the nearly 80-year-old program."

Perry's 2001 remarks on study of joint health plan with Mexico get scrutiny | Trail Blazers Blog | dallasnews.com

Perry's 2001 remarks on study of joint health plan with Mexico get scrutiny | Trail Blazers Blog | dallasnews.com: "But some Texas tea party adherents have dusted off the Perry text and found an objectionable reference to a legislatively required study of "the feasibility of bi-national health insurance," or coverage of both U.S. and Mexican residents along the border."

Not to mention some other friendly gestures Perry made that day toward Mexico, including a boast about how he'd just signed a Texas DREAM Act that granted in-state college tuition rates to the children of illegal immigrants who are academic achievers. "Texas took the national lead in allowing such deserving young minds to attend a Texas college at a resident rate," he said. Perry also spoke glowingly of how the Legislature in 2001 passed a children's Medicaid simplification bill and increased funding for Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program.
