Obama's Changing Birthplace



Obama's birthplace changes as documented on the UPI.com website in the fourth paragraph. On 7 July 2009 the website carried a story published on 4 November 2008 claiming that Obama was born at the Queen's Medical Center. However, on 8 July, the same site scrubbed Queen's from the story and changed it to Obama's birth at Kapi'olani Medical Center. These are two different hospitals and the story was revised after a news report revealing Obama's birth reported at a different Hawaiian hospital. Web sites changed their information shortly after a White House statement claiming Obama was now born at Kapi'olani. Previously, the Snopes.com web site had changed their version as well.


As interesting as the actual birthplace is, and it still may be that Obama was born in Kenya after all, and not Hawaii, the real issue is his lack of status as a natural born citizen. If his father was a British citizen he does not qualify as a natural born citizen according to the Constitution.

Obama Kid Part of the Amateur Hour



As the Obamakids have become part of the amateur hour at the White House Malia wore a T-shirt bearing the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament symbol, popularly known as the peace symbol, as she walks through Rome ahead of the G8 summit. As the world's leaders view these visual images of Americans they will realize they have little to fear from this pup, Malia is not a scary kid either.

Highest Disapproval Ratings Yet for Obama: So Far



The number of people polled who strongly disapprove inched up another point to the highest level measured to date and the overall Approval Index is at the lowest level yet for Obama. 37% "Strongly Disapprove" giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of –5. A recent Gallup Poll confirms the Rasmussen indication reporting that 36% of Americans polled strongly disapprove of Obama.

The Power of G-8 Countries Reflected in Official Photographs



The official pictures of the G-8 and how they reflect world changes are revealing. On 23 June 2005 Condaleeza Rice appeared in London. Notice where she appears in the photograph although she is only a Secretary of State. She is front and center and highlighted. If you were to contrast Rice's position with the older G-8 photograph there are revealing differences. In the current G-8 summit a president attended yet he is not in the center power position. As a representative of a country that has been displaced from power he is off to the left. In a short amount of time the staged photographs are reflecting the relative positions of the attendees. Its unfortunate that the Chinese representative had to return home and attend to domestic affairs. It would have been even more revealing to see where his power position placed him.


Awkward and Unseemly

The Drudge Report headlined this photo as: "SKIN IS IN: FIRST LADY SHOWS PLENTY AT ROME PALACE..."


Now that the Obama kids are models for J. Crew and the press has pumped Michelle as a viewing attraction I guess its time to consider the Obama family as fair game and as grist for the mill. Am I the only one who notices how unattractive these Americans are and how this photo is just awkward and unseemly? I am pleased to see that some people are paying attention and noticed this photographs. The Obama's seem distant as a couple and each is in their own world. The sophisticated Europeans appear relaxed and as a couple. More importantly, Michelle eclipses the puny looking Obama who is overshadowed by the large horse-like Michelle. Obama has his typical goofy looking grin and his shirt peeks out near his belt. Most obviously of course is how is tilted awkwardly to his left (how appropriate). The Italians are, in contrast, presidential and dignified. The Obama's are an embarrassment in comparison to the cultured Europeans. The fact that Michelle revels in revealing clothing is awkward and unseemly.

Islamic Sharia Law in Dearborn, Michigan at Arabfest



Baptist Press reported that a Christian certified by Southern Baptists was among a small group of evangelical Christians escorted by Dearborn, Mich., police from the grounds of the American Arab Festival after the team said they were assaulted by members of the event's security detail and several attendees.


David Wood and Nabeel Qureshi attended Arabfest, in Dearborn, Michigan on 21 June 2009.


The pair of Christians stated:


There was a booth at the festival which had a banner titled "Islam: Got Questions? Get Answers." From their table, we picked up a pamphlet claiming that Islam promotes peace. We noticed that it was full of poor logic and errors, so we decided to make a video refuting it. We went to the booth that gave us the pamphlet to give them the opportunity to defend their claims. Security, however, stepped in and forced us to turn off our camera.

We left the booth, received advice from police, and found out that the actions of the security guards were illegal. We went back to the booth to record a potential answer again. Realizing that the Muslims present had no answer, we left.

When we came outside, we were asked some questions by two young men, who had been sent by security to entrap us. While we responded to them, festival security started assaulting us, as you will see in this video. The conclusion of this video is a mob of festival security attacking our cameras, pushing us back, kicking our legs, and lying to the police.

We ask you, is it a coincidence that the city with the highest percentage of Muslims in the United States is the city where Christianity is not allowed to be represented (let alone preached) on a public sidewalk? Is it coincidence that in this city, people will say "No way!" when we say "This is the United States of America"?

Is this what will happen when Islam takes over the United States?


Obama stated on which side of the issue he resides. In his Cairo speech he stated:


"I consider it part of my responsibility as president of the United States to fight against negative stereotypes of Islam wherever they appear."

And, the Department of Justice will follow up on behalf of Muslim causes in the U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder stated in regards to Obama’s speech in Cairo:


"The President's pledge for a new beginning between the United States and the Muslim community takes root here in the Justice Department where we are committed to using criminal and civil rights laws to protect Muslim Americans. A top priority of this Justice Department is a return to robust civil rights enforcement and outreach in defending religious freedoms and other fundamental rights of all of our fellow citizens in the workplace, in the housing market, in our schools and in the voting booth."


The regime promotes Islamic observances as a higher priority than neutrality in regards to religion as enunciated by the Constitution.


Former Muslims in Europe report how they have received death threats. Americans should stay vigilant that they same aspects of Islam that have afflicted Europe does not appear in the U.S.

7th Grader Can Not Wear Pro-Life Shirt

7th Grader Can Not Wear Pro-Life Shirt

7/7/09




A seventh-grade girl in California was ordered by her school principal to remove her pro-life T-shirt on "National Pro-Life T-Shirt Day." The T-shirt depicted pictures of a fetus growing in the womb.

The incident occurred in April, 2008, at McSwain Elementary School, a K-8 school in Merced, California. Anna Amador, mother of the child, says that Principal Terrie Rohrer, Asst. Principal C.W. Smith and clerk Martha Hernandez denied her daughter's First Amendment rights by ordering her to leave the cafeteria and remove her shirt.


A lawsuit filed on behalf of the girl appears to be bolstered by the 1969 Supreme Court case Tinker v. Des Moines Independent School District decision. The Court ruled in favor of the right of public school student to wear black armbands to protest the Vietnam War. As Amador's attorney William Becker points out, "The message of the T-shirt is that life is sacred. One would be very hard pressed to find anything wrong with that particular idea, except that some people do object to the political message.”

Hawaii Hospital Will Not Verify Obama's Birth



Obama claims on White House stationery that he was born at the Kapi'olani Medical Center for Women and Children in Honolulu. The letter was posted by the medical center on its website. Kristy Watanabe, the public relations specialist for the hospital, refused to confirm or deny the veracity of Obama's letter claiming he was born at the hospital. Obama has to allow the public release of his private records which he has refused to do. Numerous Court actions have been unsuccessful in getting documentation of his name, his place of birth, whether he is a natural born citizen of the U.S., who is father is, his school records, passport, Selective Service registration, or related matters.


Previously, the website Snopes was considered an definitive source to some in answer to those who questioned Obama's birthplace. Snopes appeared with major funding related to Obama's donors just months before Obama took office, along with the other DNC sites including Factcheck.org, MoveOn.org and a plethora of sites designed to sway public opinion.


However, to "debunk" the "birthers," Snopes stated that Obama was born at Queensville Medical in Hawaii, a different hospital than the one claimed as Obama's birthplace on White House stationary. So where was Obama really born and at which hospital? Obama is not talking. Neither is he releasing any information about how he can qualify as a natural born citizen of the U.S.

Muslim Uighurs, in Xinjiang Province Riot: Toll Hits 156

In the deadliest riots since Tiananmen, Muslim Uighurs rioted in Western China. There is a good reason China did not want their 17 Uighurs returned to China. The U.S. has considered releasing the Uighurs into the U.S. mainland once they are released from Gitmo.

Shilling Children While the Headline Screams Death: "7 US troops killed throughout Afghanistan"



Isn't it about time that Obama publicly displays his Selective Service Records? Once he is sending someone's child to war he owes them at least that much. Oh, by the way, his children are fine, they are shilled as models for J. Crew now.


This is obscene.


J.Crew is using Sasha and Malia Obama to market some of its spring and summer styles, in a press release sent to reporters titled "The Obama Girls Bring Some American Style to Moscow."

"Malia & Sasha wore J.Crew and crewcuts as they exited Air Fore [sic] One in Moscow — stylish in their trenches, they also accessorized with ballet flat shoes," the release says.

The notice includes two photographs of Sasha and Malia deplaning Air Force One with their parents and an image of the J.Crew logo.

Government Bankruptcy Should Be Bailed Out

The AP ran a story with the headline: "July Fourth fireworks sparkle less under recession." The important point here is that the Obama depression is a tremendous opportunity. Since the government should not be expected to produce patriotic displays, if it is not responsive to the people, those people who are dedicated to liberty and the Constitution should be running their own shows. The Fourth of July is a tremendous opportunity for patriotic citizens to take up the cause of independence and liberty and produce shows that promote the Constitution. As government recedes the people should come forward. At the TEA (Taxed Enough Already) rally I attended the official ceremony was sparsely attended and the crowd quickly broke up. On the other hand, the TEA rally attracted a faithful crowd over the course of several hours. TEA activists should step into the breach and integrate their love of country with Constitutional principles. The patriotic days such as Memorial Day and Veterans Day are similar and TEA activists should promote the Constitution on those days in particular as well.

"We’re setting up a global warming gestapo," Steve Scalise, Rep. from Lousiania



Section 201 of this cap and trade energy tax creates a national building code, something that we don’t have in place today. If you look across the country right now, 30 states have their own state building codes. A number of states actually go even to the local level where they have codes that are based on different cities or different parishes or counties.

Just to use Louisiana, for an example, right after Hurricane Katrina, we — our legislature passed a statewide building code. We didn’t have one before. We created a statewide building code, and we took into account in our code the various segmented differences between regions of our state. In fact, the code is different in South Louisiana where our main threats are hurricanes and flooding, much different than they are in the northern part of the state of Louisiana, where tornados are a bigger threat.

And so if you look at the fact that thirty states have these types of statewide codes, this bill in section 201 creates a federal code that would trump, throw out all of those state building codes that have been worked on for years in many cases. We worked on ours for months, just for our state’s code. Here, with really no debate, we’re creating a federal code that trumps all of the states’ codes and in some cases would actually lower the standards that states have for building.

And if you go back to why we have building codes and why states have done this, the purpose typically is to protect safety and health. Safety and health have always been the main driving factors behind a building code. What this bill does in Section 201, it’s literally taking global warming, and using global warming to trump safety and health. Because now, if I’m in South Louisiana, and I want to rebuild after hurricane damage — which by the way we had 120,000 homes in Louisiana that had more than 50 percent damage due to Hurricane Katrina — under this bill in section 201, when people are rebuilding those 120,000 homes, they would have to follow the federal building code, and in many cases that would mean they can’t use the same types of strength that they might want to use in their windows. They might want to use stronger windows because they don’t want the storm to blow out their windows. But under this bill, a federal standard could say their windows are out of the federal code.

And then what does that mean? Let’s go to the bill and look at the penalties. Because there are actually civil penalties in this bill. We’re actually creating a global warming police. To page 235: “The Secretary may set and collect reasonable inspection fees to cover the costs of inspections required.” So number one, they can come in, the federal government can come in and inspect your house and send you the bill. And if they find that you’re out of compliance with this new federal code, “The Secretary shall assess a civil penalty for violations of this section.” And then further to page 236: “Each day of unlawful occupancy shall be considered a separate violation.” We’re setting up a global warming gestapo that can literally come in and now this new term, “unlawful occupancy.” Now living in your home is considered unlawful under this bill.

This is ludicrous.

Random Unconstitutional Searches Becoming More Common

In the new regime, random and unconstitutional searches are becoming more common. I have noted that people across the country are reporting that searches, other than at borders, are randomly performed at sporadic check points. Even the ACLU seems to be flummoxed at this development. A statement by the ACLU concludes:


If the current generation of Americans does not challenge this creeping (and sometimes galloping) expansion of federal powers over the individual through the rationale of “border protection,” we are not doing our part to keep alive the rights and freedoms that we inherited, and will soon find that we have lost some or all of their right to go about their business, and travel around inside their own country, without interference from the authorities.


On the other hand, the 4th Amendment is clear and unmistakably transparent to ordinary folks:


The 4th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America:
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers,
and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be
violated; and no Warrants shall issue but upon probable cause, supported
by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be
searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Veteran U.S. Reporters Shocked by Lack of Transparency in Obama White House



The interaction between Gibbs, White House spokesperson, and the veteran press, is fascinating to watch. With their long years in the White House, their collective experience as illustrated recently from video clips, they are identifying the shockingly closed nature of discussion from the Obama White House. The First Amendment suffers when citizens can not obtain simple answers to their questions. The questions and answers are scripted and the Obama regime is ignoring the protests building up.


Helen Thomas, self-proclaimed liberal reporter, has stated: “They ought to be hanging their heads in shame.”


The Press Corps is having a difficult time with Obama and at 89, Thomas is a veteran White House reporter who has covered every administration since John F. Kennedy. When a self-proclaimed liberal reporter such as Thomas compares Obama unfavorably to Nixon, this is significant. She’s a reporter, calling it the way she sees it:


"Not even Nixon tried to control the media like Obama," Thomas stated.


“Nixon didn’t try to do that,” Thomas said. “They couldn’t control (the media). They didn’t try."


She continued: “What the hell do they think we are, puppets?” Thomas said. “They’re supposed to stay out of our business. They are our public servants. We pay them.”


In particular, Thomas was disturbed by a reporter from the Huffington Post. She stated: “When you call the reporter the night before you know damn well what they are going to ask to control you.”


Thomas explained: “I’m not saying there has never been managed news before, but this is carried to fare-thee-well–for the town halls, for the press conferences,” she said. “It’s blatant. They don’t give a damn if you know it or not. They ought to be hanging their heads in shame.”

Omidyar also serves as a trustee of the Punahou School in Hawaii, the elite private high school that Obama graduated from in 1979, and endorsed Obama for president in March 2008.

"Emergency Containment Area"... Possible Martial Law Indicator?



23 June 2009 "Emergency Containment" Area sign erected near the North and South Carolina border. A Guide to Emergency Quarantine and Isolation Controls of Roads in Rural Areas may provide a clue as to the containment areas. The text states in part:


Response to agro-terrorism or other biological outbreaks of food contamination or animal disease often requires immediate (within hours) isolation and/or quarantine of potentially infected areas. Researchers indicate that the economic impact of the outbreak is a function of the time it takes to enforce a quarantine and eradicate or control the infection. It is essential that emergency quarantine and isolation controls be available that can be implemented immediately at the local level. Traditional methods of containment (i.e., posting law enforcement officers to control travel) are not feasible in many potentially affected areas; thus, more innovative methods are needed that can be implemented in partnership with law enforcement, military (Active, Reserve, and Guard), the private sector, transportation agencies, and others at the local and state levels.

Quarantine or isolation of even a limited area could involve many roads and could need to be in place for weeks to months. While federal support for the longer duration may arrive in a few days, vector control (i.e., containment of damages) requires an effective locally implemented response within hours.

There is a need to develop or identify emergency quarantine and isolation controls for road networks (e.g., all roads in a 3- to 6-mile radius of a feed lot) in a short time frame (e.g., 6 to 12 hours).


What the document does not state is what the area is for: animals or citizens. Stay tuned for more.

In the increasingly militarized border region of Texas, ATF agents are hunting for American guns on the pretext of stopping drug trade violence. If the federal government were serious about stopping crime and drugs they would have started the search 30-40 years ago when it was obvious to everyone living in those regions that the drug and gun trade was spiraling out of control. To do so, however, would have entailed enforcing a coherent and legal immigration policy, a task which neither the Democrats or the Republicans, vying for the Hispanic vote, were willing to do.

European Left Does the Obvious? Lower Taxes, Increase Growth?

Amid the unrestrained deficits and the increasing bureaucratic regulation emerging from Washington, Hungary's minority Socialist government passed a crucial test when parliament approved key 2010 tax changes to help the country recover from its worst recession in almost two decades.


In addition, leftist German Chancellor Angela Merkel defended her plan to cut taxes despite the country's soaring budget deficit as she introduced her conservative alliance's manifesto.

Lower incomes taxes would "provide motivation" and encourage economic growth, Ms. Merkel told a conference of her party, the Christian Democratic Union, and its Bavarian sister party, the Christian Social Union.

"It would be wrong not to do what is right and necessary for growth, and so prevent ourselves emerging quickly from this crisis," Ms. Merkel stated.


The U.S. could take a hint, ironically from the European Socialist left, to increase growth and prosperity, and release the American people from bondage and regulation. If the economy is to grow it should be unfettered which even the Socialists realize.

The Militarization of the U.S. Continues

Obama is seeking up to 1,500 National Guard volunteers to patrol and provide surveillance along the American border.

The plan is a continuation of the increasing militarization of American society by the Defense Department and the Homeland Security Department. Pentagon officials are reportedly concerned about committing more troops to the border because it is a move some officials worry will be seen as militarizing the region. The U.S. is imitating the examples of Iran, Saudi Arabia, and North Korea.

Jobs: No Expectations from Obama

The expectations of Obama addressing jobs has to be filed quietly away. The projections from the famous chart showing the job creation plan with or without the stimulus bill passing is ludicrous at this point.


Obama’s economic advisers saw unemployment cresting at just below 8% with the stimulus in place; without it, they forecast the national rate topping out around 9 percent.


The stimulus, of course, did pass, though the national unemployment rate is now 9.4%. Two weeks ago, Obama predicted unemployment will hit 10% this year.

Obama's Sotomayor Defeated by SCOTUS

SCOTUS ruled in favor of the firefighters who claimed they were discriminated against in New Haven, Connecticut. The ruling reverses a high-profile decision by Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor.

Obama eBay Kenyan Birth Certificate Removed



On eBay earlier an item was offered for sale. Item No. 160344928067, although unavailable now, was "a certified copy of President Barack Obama's Kenyan Birth Certificate."


The initial auction listing was removed from the eBay site and it was then re-posted under another number, but then removed again.


The seller, "colmado_naranja," states, "President Barack Hussein Obama II was born in The Coast Provincial Hospital at Mombasa in Kenya at 7:24 PM on August 4th, 1961."


The seller related: "I delved further and found that a birth certificate was on file at The Coast Provincial General Hospital at Mombasa," said the seller, who claims the certificate is in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.

Obama Raises Taxes, Regulates Americans, and Stifles American Energy Use



The Cap and Tax bill does not exist, since 300 pages were added at the last minute, the bill in process reached 1500 pages, costs $800 Billion, and the only aspect of it we are sure of is the one Obama promised while campaigning. In March 2008 Obama stated clearly that “cap and trade” will cause electricity rates to skyrocket. It is the only sure thing we can rely on in Washington business as usual: lies, taxes, and destruction of the American way of life.

NY Times Posts Documentation Linking Saudi Royals to Killing Americans on 9/11

The New York Times has posted a massive amount of evidence documenting the connection between the Saudi royal family and al-Qaeda. Lawyers for 9/11 families and their insurers have collected several hundred thousand pages of interview transcripts, government reports, financial records, court testimony and other material. Four of the documents, not entered in the court record but provided to the New York Times, are available. The Supreme Court is expected to decide this week whether to take up the case; lower courts have found that the Saudis cannot be sued in U.S. court based on a 1976 law giving sovereign immunity to foreign nations and their leaders. Obama has backed the terrorists and the Saudi royals against the American victims on 9/11.
