Barack Obama: In His Own Words: Sep 21st (Glenn)

Transcipt, Charts and Video

...............................................................

"How about the funding for ACORN?"
"Frankly its not something that I've followed closely, I didn't even know ACORN was getting a lot of federal funding."-Barack Obama

.:: Glenn::. Tonight I've decided to ask the President some questions and use the answers that hes already given because he is not giving anything new...I hear people say, he ran as a centrist and now he is not governing that way...I maintain that Obama told us absolutely everything that he was going to do and he still is, every step of the way. People just didn't listen, they only heard what they wanted to hear.

"I have not said that I was a single payer supporter because frankly, we historically, have had an employer-based system in this country with private insurers and for us to transition to a single payer system, I believe would be too disruptive."- Barack Obama

.::Me::. So he is not for a single payer system not because its
fundamentally bad, but because its too "disruptive"?

.::Glenn::. Well what I happen to know is that a few years ago Obama said this...

"I happen to be a proponent of a single-payer, universal health care plan...A single payer health care plan--universal health care plan. That's what I'd like to see." - Barack Obama to the AFL-CIO in 2003

.::Video::.Portions Shown



.::Video::. Tides Center Rep talking about how a we will move towards the single payer system without being so disruptive.

.::Chart::.

Here are a couple other blog posts on the Soros-Obama Connection:
Little Green Footballs
WebLoggin

.::Glenn::. Is it even feasible to have this number of marxist, radicals, anti-capitalist etc near him?.... Maybe the President is blind to character? Maybe the President is part of the problem? Maybe the President is in danger because no one is vetting these people? Is the FBI even showing up for work? That's for you to decide. But You won't be able to decided if the people the President grants interviews too only ask him insipid shallow questions over and over and over again...

Obama's favorite line when deflecting questions is...Bush look at that guy.
Bush had czars too!...Yeah some people were yelling back then too and I have the archives to prove how much I was yelling at that guy. But Bush's czars didn't have the radical ideology many of these people do...
He will say that Bush started us down the path down socialism...and he would be right by that.
Bush started the crazy spending...he'd be right again....
Bush started the bailouts...yes he did, hated him for it.

My question to President Obama would be um, I'm sorry, is this just Bush's third term? Are you continuing all of his policies?

....Anyone out there who voted for Obama should be asking themselves, jeeze did I misunderstand that President because I thought he believed in change? Or was it that he misunderstood me?

We should have seen this coming before his first day in office when he said this, "We are 5 days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America"-Barack Obama

.::Paraphrasing Glenn::. Obama has been compared to FDR, Kennedy, Lincoln, is that because people are afraid to just look at him? Why is no one making him talk about his mentor- Frank Marshal Davis- a radical communist? Do you still care lessons from your mentor with you? Is it reasonable to ask what part of Davis he carries around with him? No one is looking at his college years. Look at what he says about his associations in college.

"To avoid being mistaken for a sellout, I chose my friends carefully. The more politically active black students. The foreign students. The Chicanos. The Marxist professors and structural feminist and punk-rock performance poets." - Barack Obama, Dreams From My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance

.::Glenn::. "I hate to keep bring up the past but we have to ask. He chose his friends carefully back then, the question is does he choose his advisors closely now."

Video: Van Jones talking about Redistributing Wealth

.::Glenn::. That sounds radical to most Americans but listen to what our own President says

"The Supreme Court never ventured into the issues of redistribution of wealth...The tragedies of the civil rights movement was , um, because the civil rights movement became so court focused I think there was a tendency to lose track of the political and community organizing and activities on the ground that are able to put together the actual coalition of powers though which you bring about redistributive change." - Obama on Chicago Public Radio, 2001

.::Paraphrasing Glenn::. Are we listeneing American?? Because he is telling us that we have dismissed the community organizers...ACORN, Tides, SEIU, Apollo etc... that can put together the coalition that can bring about change...

...............................................................

Barack Obama on ACORN

"How about the funding for ACORN?" George Stephanopoulos
"Frankly its not something that I've followed closely, I didn't even know ACORN was getting a lot of federal funding."-Barack Obama
"Well the Senate and the House have voted to cut it off." George Stephanopoulos
"Ya know, what I know is what I saw in that video was certainty inappropriate and deserves to be.."-Barack Obama
"So your not committing to cutting off federal funding?" George Stephanopoulos
"George this is not the biggest issue facing the country, its not something I'm paying a lot of attention too." -Barack Obama

"Before I even get inaugurated, were going to be calling all of you in to help us shape the agenda. Were going to be having meetings all across the country with community organizations [ACORN] so that you have input into the agenda for the next presidency of the United States of America"- Barack Obama

.::paraphrasing Glenn::. Obama also closely tied to SEIU, which ACORN founder Wade Rafky is also closely tied too...

"I've spent my entire adult life working with SEIU. I'm not a newcomer to this. I didn't just suddenly discover SEIU..."-Barack Obama

.::Glenn::. Then there is Ameri-Cor, or is it Ameri-Cor. I'm not really sure what the president is describing here.

"We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the nation security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force thats just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded."-Barack Obama

.::Glenn::. Really, why do we need that?

"Ive been fighting alongside ACORN on issues you care about my entire career. Even before I was an elected official, when I ran project vote voter registration drive in Illinois, when I ran project vote voter registration drive in Illinois, ACORN was smack dab in the middle of it, and we appreciated your work." -Sam Graham-Felsen, Ran Obama's Campaign Blog

...............................................................

.::Glenn::. Just past week he has raised the possibility of amnesty and citizenship for the 20 million people who are already here illegally.

"If someone is here illegally they won't be covered under this plan. That's a commitment I've made. But I also want to make this clear. Even though I don't believe we can extend coverage to those that are here illegally, I don't believe that we can simply ignore the fact that our immigration system is broken.......If anything this debate underscores necessity for passing comprehensive immigration reform and resolving the issue of 12 million undocumented people living and working in this country once and for all." - Barack Obama

...............................................................
Obama and ACORN

Guest: John Fund, Author, Stealing Elections, The Wall Street Journal

.::Glenn::. He didnt know they were getting federal funding?
.::Fund::. It's curious because ACORN has gotten federal funding throughout his existence and he has a long hisotry of working with ACORN. He was a trainer for them in Chicago and a lawyer for them. I suspect at some point ACORN paid him, I suspect some of that was federal funds.

.::Note::. ABC was the ONLY Network
to ask President Obama about ACORN

.::Fund::. Obamas campaign spend over $800,000 with an ACORN affiliate to get out the vote. Voter registration...and the money was categorized and reported to Federal Election Commission as staging and lighting....Then they corrected themselves when they got caught by a Pittsburg paper. So the Obama campaign was not particularaly eager to have people know that they were hiring a ACORN affiliate to help with voter registration.

.::Fund::. Its strange because throughout his career he has been proud of being affiliated with ACORN....He knew everything about and now he knows nothings about ACORN makes me think something is there...All I know is that he is retrieting from ACORN faster than a speeding bullet.

.::Fund::. He just refered to the conduct as inappropriate, I think almost anyone would have used a stronger word.

.::Note::. Then attorney Barack Obama
represented ACORN in Lawsuit in 1995

Part 2

Reasonable Questions for Unreasonable Times

• Video about who is writing these bills
• Andy Stern, President of SEIU, "I think I can finally prove Reagan and Bush wrong, Wealth does not trickle down, it trickles up."
• Rep. Maxine Water, May 2008, " And guess what this liberal would be all about? This liberal would be all about socializing -uh, (long uncomfortable pause)...would be about basically taking over, and the government running all of your companies."
• Howard Dean on CNBC, " I think we've had quite enough capitalism in the last eight year, I think we need some regulation now."
• Obama, "So today my administration is proposing a sweeping overhaul of the financial regulatory system. A transformation on a scale not seen since after the Great Depression."
• Perhaps it was William Ayers who said it best while at an even in 2006, "To evaporate the point, down with capitalism."

• President Obama's Science Czar: John Holdren; " The need for de-development presents our economist with a major challenge. They must design a stable, low-consumption economy in which there is a much more equitable distribution of wealth than the present one. Redistribution of wealth both within and among nations is absolutely essential, is a decent life is to be provided for every human being."

• Cass Sunstein, Regulatory Czar, "Without taxes there would be no liberty. Without taxes there would be no prosperity. Without taxes, few of us would have any assets worth defending. (It is) a dim fiction that some people enjoy an exercise their right without placing any burden whatsoever on the public fiscal...there is no liberty without dependency. That is why we should celebrate tax day."

Guest:
Stephen Moore, WSJ
Arther Laffer, Former Economic Adviser to Pres Regan

Reasonable Questions for Unreasonable Times

• What does the President really believe in?

Michlle Malkin, Fox NEws Contributor

• Malkin: Reclaiming Revolution, a book by STORM. Self published history of this group standing to gether to organize a revolution movement, retrospective of what they did and when they disbanded. Parrallels betweent he way this netwrork and ACORN and SEIU operates. Van Jones was a founding members of STORM.
  

• Malkin: You could only join by invitation only, they did better vetting than the Obama admin. What happened was that many members started their own group because they didn't get along. We don't know who the shadowy founders were but we do know the funders are of some of those other groups.
  

• STORM on 9/11, Reclaiming Revolution, pg 47, "The Vigil was to be an expression of solidarity with Arab- and Muslim Americans and of morning for the dead in New York and Washington DC as well as the victims of the US imperialism about the world. The vigil, held in Oakland's snow park,drew hundreds of people. There STORM members articulated a strong anti0imperialist line that resonated with everyday people there."

• STORM on MAO, Reclaiming Revolution, pg 51, "Storm was never formally a 'marxist-leninist' oranization, and we never has a systematic marzist theoretical framework. But we did have a poliical commitment to the fundamental ideas of marxism-leninism. We upheld the marxist critique of capitalist explotaiton, We agree with Lenin's analysis of the state and party and we found inspiration and guidance int eh insurgent revolutionary stategies developed by third world revolutionries like Mao Tse-Tung and Amilcar Cabral."

Reasonable Questions for Unreasonable Times

Day 1

• Can we survive this debt? If yes, how?

• Why the rush on health care reform, cap-and-trade?• Who is writing these bills?

• Will Washington read and understand the bills?

• Why are you called "grassroots" if you are for, but "Astroturf" if you are against?

• Our unfunded liabilities for Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid is close to $100 trillion. Is there any way to pay for these programs without bankrupting America?

• We are in so much debt, why spend more borrowed money on cap-and-trade and health care programs before we stop the flow of red ink?

• The stimulus package funneled billions of dollars to ACORN: How does giving billions of dollars to ACORN stimulate the economy?

• If it was so important for Congress to pass the stimulus bill before they even had time to read it, why has only a fraction of the stimulus money been spent six months later?

• Former President Bush said he had to abandon free market principles in order to save them; how exactly does that work?

• Why won’t member of Congress read the bills before they vote on them?

• Why are citizens mocked and laughed at when they ask their congressman to read the bills before they vote on them?

• Was the "cash for clunkers" program meant to save the Earth or the economy? Did it accomplish either?

• How did Van Jones, a self-proclaimed communist, become a special adviser to the president?

• Did President Obama know of Van Jones’ radical political beliefs when he named him special adviser?

• The Apollo Alliance claimed credit for writing the stimulus bill; why was this group allowed to write any portion of this bill?

• If politicians aren’t writing the bills and aren’t reading the bills, do they have any idea what these 1,000-page plus bills actually impose on the American people?

• If the "public option" health care plan is so good, why won’t politicians agree to have that as their plan?

• If town hall meetings are intended for the politicians to learn what’s on our mind, why do they spend so much time talking instead of listening?

• Politicians are refusing to attend town hall meetings complaining, without evidence, that they are scripted. Does that mean we shouldn’t come out and vote for you since every campaign stop, baby kiss and speech you give is scripted?

• Why would you want to overwhelm the system?

• Is using the economic crises to rush legislation through Congress what Rahm Emanuel meant when he talked about not letting a crisis go to waste?

• What are the president's "czars" paid? What is the budget for their staffs/offices?

• "The worst thing to be is elderly on a system like ours. Actually, to be fair, its not bad with kids. But I can tell you horrid stories about elderly people being left starving in wards and the reason we've put up with ti for so long is because its because such a huge system, such an enormous bureaucracy. We have 1.4 million people employed by the National Health Service. It is 3rd biggest employer in world. Most of those are administrators, and they outnumber the doctors and nurses."- Hannan

Obamanations Ties to JPMorgan/Chase

• J.P Morgan/Chase has recieved a government bailout, aka ties to Obama administration
• J.P Morgan/Chase has given more than 5 million dollars to ACORN affiliate, ACORN Housing since 2001.(Guess I'm going to have to find a new bank...anyone know of a non-government corrupt one???)

"Our dealings with ACORN have been entirely appropriate."- JPMorgan Spokes woman, Jennifer R Zuccarelli

Guest: Peter Flaherty, National Legal and Policy Center

Question: Why would JPMorgan/Chase be interested in giving 5 million in cash to an org like ACORN?

• "This whole thing started in the '70 when ACORN, gut rolling, started targeting the banks because as Jesse Jackson quote Jessie James at an ACORN conference, "That's where the money is." They figured out that if you could picket a bank directors home in a leaky suburb, you could get them to say, who are these people, get them off my back. So pretty soon all the banks, JPMorgan, Chase, Citigroup, Bank of America started paying tribute to ACORN. Including direct cash donations, included investment in ACORN housing Inc and most importantly it included bagging opposition to something called the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977. Which led to the severe loosening of lending standards, which led to the sub prime melt down which led to the general morgage crisis."- Peter Flaherty

• "Its been tradition, its the mentality. JPMorgan/Chase got 25 billion in TARP money. At the same time over 1,000 employees of the company got a bonus of a million or more the year before."- Peter Flaherty

• JPMorgan's CEO Jamie Dimon has been called "Obama's Favorite Banker" by the very liberal newspaper, THE NEW YORK TIMES
• Dimon is reportedly still in contact with Rahm Emanuel and Tim Geithner.
• President Obama on JPMorgan CEO, "...there are a lot of banks that are actually pretty well managed; JP Morgan being a good example. Jamie Dimon, the CEO there...I don't think he shuld be punished for doing a pretty good job managing an enormous portfolio."---on ABC News, Feb 10, 2009

• "Just because JPMorgan/Chase has a solid balance sheet that doesnt meant that they are absolved from balme in the morgage crisi. They provided important funding to ACORN that contributed to bringing on this whole thing.This bank is very political. " - Peter Flaherty

• "William Daily the brother of Chicago mayor Richard Daily, has a title of Midwest Director. Now how many Fortune 500 companies have a 'Midwest Director', not one other one. It's political protection, plain and simple." - Peter Flaherty

Powers of Congress

Host: These are the limited complete regulations that the Constitutions giver the Congress. So how can the government have the power to take over Health Care and uphold the Constitution? Congress would justify using the clasuse stating that they are able to regulate the "interstate commerce"

Jay Sekulow: "As a lawyer whose litigates in courts all over the country, I wanted to point out that if they would read there own legislation they would know what key words are missing from the bill, commerce clause!! It's not even in the bill! It doesn't appear in any of the bills. They don't even pretend to rely on the Constitution. Rather what they are doing is a policy of social engineering under the guise of legislation and they will come up with theories of Constitutional analysis, but at the end of the day your absolutely right. To say that the Government is going to take over Health Care is incorrect as a matter of law, and un-Constitutional in our view of strict Constitutional law."

Tim Lynch:"The key point I think for your audience is that the Constitution is incapable of enforcing itself. If member of Congress choose to ignore the Constitution, then it falls upon the people to exert pressure on Congress. Someone once said, Its only when Congress feels the heat that they see the light. If people want to make their voices heard they need to exhert that pressure on Congress. But if the people become apathetic about the Constitution and freedom then the rule of law and their liberties will erode and there has already been too much of that already."

Jay Sekulow: "The tenth amendment of the United States says, Look we are not giving everything to the Federal Government. The States have authority here and here is the problem..At the end of the day, Congress isn't even thinking about where are they are getting the authority to do this."

• Tenth Amendment: The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
  
  

Proof that Pro-Obamacare Protesters are Being Paid

After a bit of searching I found this posting on the Sacramento Craigslist. I copied most of it down below. No suprise that the "main stream" aka liberal media aren't covering this sort of thing.

While at the protest I was talking a woman who helps organize protests etc down here in MIA. This man came up and started asking her if we had any conservative lawyers on our side that could do a little research for him. He was curious if paying people to protest is legal? I started to think about it and I think it could raise some serious issues depending on permits and all those things you need to work on the street. If anyone reading this happens to be a lawyer and has some resemblence of an answer for me...well I would appreciate it!

Chick Chat: The Argument against Obamacare

This nations is in a financial quagmire.

The national deficit has quadrupled since the new administration took office. The economy is not improving but instead continuing to see housing and unemployment suffer. Median home prices are "stabilizing" according to reports, but stabilization at low levels does not mean we are at the end of the fight. The number of new people registering for unemployment benefits rose "unexpectantly" last week and yet our President claims that we are heading in the "right direction" "as we begin to put an end to this recession." His words, not mine.

I will make this very clear right now, I am NO economic genius. I did mediocre at best in my college econ class, but where I faltered was not the basic concepts. Basic Economic Principles are pretty simple for anyone to understand. Take a moment and think back to that old musty college classroom and remember the things you learned there.

Spending what you don't have creates debt.
If you just print more money, the tender's worth weakens.
If you cut off supply of something, the demand rises and visa versa
The cost of something is what you give up to get it.
Everything is a trade off!

Not lets apply that to our current economic state. If you want to spend more money, we have to print more money. If you print more money, our dollar will be worth less. If you want more stimulus' and bailouts' then the debt/deficit will continue to rise. If the debt/deficit continues to rise we give up our financial stability and the generations to come will suffer from the trade offs we are making now.

Now lets apply some of those principles to another topic. If you want government run health care, you trade off on the supply of quality health care because the demand is rising. You give up the ability to be fiscally competitive in a free market. You give up the ability to change your mind, you trade off the right to make your own decisions concerning your health, your life and your death.

I am not a fear monger or a mobster. I am not paid by any grassroots organization to do research and put together my thoughts here on this little blog. I am not receiving compensation to get up and go hold signs up in 100 degree weather. I don't talk about the "scary" things because I want people to be frightened into thinking like me. I talk about the "scary" things because I want people to be informed by the truth.

I have to give Julia Hall at least some credit. The very first part of her question to Obama which was, "How do kids know what is true..." is a very valid question. Now, if we look beyond that statement we start to see the influence of her mother's connections, but I'm focusing on those little seven words for right now. So how do kids know what is true? How do ADULTS know what is true? Are the statements we are hearing from the President, Congress and Unions true? Or is it the claims from the rights that are verifiable?

Now I can't make that final decision for you, but I will ask you a few more things.

Which side has lied to us before? The Government or average American people? Which side has spent money in times where savings were the only solution? Government or average American people? Which side will live off of, work in and interact with the laws being proposed? Government or average American people? Which side will profit? The Government or average American people?

This argument is not against reform, it is against government control. Just like all of those TRUE pro-Obamacare Americans (people paid to go to protests are null and void), I do not believe that we are providing and regulating health care in an acceptable fashion. I believe that there are people who truly need financial help and those who are facing hardships because of pre-existing conditions. I want to help them too.

No one should live in the greatest health care country in the world and not be able to profit from their compatriots successes. Yet this plan has nothing to do with the sympathy and compassion we have to help those people. In fact, this bill has nothing to do with health or care as one great protester said. This bill is about control. Controlling an essential business, controlling the economy and ultimately controlling us, the American people.

It happened in Cuba. It's occurred in Venezuela, Russia, Nicaragua...it has happened in so many countries that at this point we are one of the few, if not the only government whose maintained a truly moderate amount of government control. We must hold on to whatever it is that made us want to live with that moderate interference. That moderation is what has kept us up in the forefront of technological and medical advances. It is what has allowed us to be able to voice our opinions without fear of retribution. Moderation is the pillar which we must stand on as we try to reign in the out of control government.

Mini Recess Rally: Miami, Fl @ Senator Nelson's Office

I just got home from an overwhelmingly anti-health care bill protest in front of Senator Nelsons Office in Coral Gables.

It was approx. 3 to 1 with more than 300 people there to complain about the bill and a much smaller pro-bill presence by Union, ACRON, SEIU.

I will now take my leave to shower and when I come back I will update with photos, videos, stories and a full on Chick Chat

The Pro-Bill Protesters






The Anti-Bill Protesters















A woman started to pass out because it was SOOoooo Hot!
They had to call the ambulance




5:00 pm THIS IS WHAT WAS LEFT OF
THE PRO-OBAMACARE PROTESTER at 5!!
That's the time they stop being paid...

We did have one lonely ACORN woman come over and try to talk to people about her views. She claimed to have never heard a lot of the arguments against health care and tried to trick people into giving her their email address. Look at her body language!! After she finished talking to us she crossed the street and started writing in a large binder.

Here is some of the conversation that I was able to capture of the Pro-Obamacare woman that came to talk to the Anti-Obamcare crowd. Also included is some general footage of chanting and the crowd

Miami Townhall: Aug 13th

UPDATE:
Apparently Senator Nelson is out of the country but there will be a Pro-Health Care Protest outside his office at the same time/location/date! It is still important to show up in numbers to voice our opinions

..................................................................................................................

I have to say thank you to South Florida Conservative for sending this alert! This is not some master plan by the RNC to disrupt town hall meetings but a sincere expression of concern by everyday citizens.

..................................................................................................................

THIS IS AN IMMEDIATE CALL TO ACTION..!

Thanks to Mireya for this tidbit.

Bill Nelson will have a town hall meeting (no advertisement about it, eh) on Thursday, August 13th at 4:00 pm at his Coral Gables office. The address is:

2925 Salzedo St
Coral Gables, Fl 33134
ph (305) 536-5999

The real mob (ACORN, SEIU) will be there. WE MUST SHOW UP IN NUMBERS..! Even if we do not gt a chance to go inside where Senator Nelson will hold the townhall, we must show our numbers and show the local media (which will be in attendance looking for bad behavior...from conservatives) that ObamaCare is not supported and must not become the law of the land under any guise or circumstance. I call upon all conservatives to flood the office and surrounding areas with your posters (please on message and respectful).

Until Thursday, let's call Senator Nelson's office and let him know how his constituents actually feel. Ring the phone off the hook with intelligent, respectful objections to ObamaCare.

If you do make it into the Townhall, here are some helpful questions you may consider asking:

Can you promise I will not lose my current health plan and doctor?
Can you promise Senators and Congressmen, as well as their families, will enroll in the same public plan we will have?
Can you promise Obama's healthcare will not lead to higher deficits?
Can you promise government bureaucrats will not ration care, especially seniors and those seriously ill?
Can you promise our tax dollars will not fund abortions?

Let us show the local and national media, Senator Nelson and especially "Queen Pelosi" and all who doubt our authenticity and sincerity, that we:

We Are Grassroots..!
not astroturf...
