GOP Leadership Is Self-Destructing Right Before Our Eyes

It has been said that: "Absolute power does corrupt absolutely". Indeed the Republican leadership continues to authenticate that saying.

What is with these fellas? Too much time on their hands? Too much money? Too much power prompting them to believe they can do anything and live any kind of way and get away with it?

It appears that the GOP leadership is self-destructing right in front of our eyes. First it was the revelation of an extramarital affair involving Vitter from Louisiana. Then, Ensign of Nevada came out under pressure and admitted his own infidelity... and now, South Carolina Governor Sanford comes clean about his mysterious five day disappearance which involved cheating on his wife "with a dear, dear friend from Argentina".

The longstanding GOP 'family values' mantra has been trampled by these good 'old boys! No wonder so many people in America are abandoning the Republican party in droves. The hypocrisy... and the double standards are an insult to thinking voters.

And it matters not that Mrs. Sanford released the following "stand-by-her-man-statement ":

"I believe enduring love is primarily a commitment and an act of will, and for a marriage to be successful, that commitment must be reciprocal," Jenny Sanford said. "I remain willing to forgive Mark completely for his indiscretions and to welcome him back, in time, if he continues to work toward reconciliation with a true spirit of humility and repentance."

Governor Sanford has proved he is a liar, a cheat, and has forfeited the public trust.

The GOP needs to groom new leaders and get rid of these corrupted hypocrites... and HOPE the party can be ready for primetime in 2016!

BREAKING NEWS UPDATE: Kim Jung Il To U.S. President: Do Something

North Korean leader Kim Jung Il has upped the ante in his trash-talk to President Obama. The Dear Leader not only dares the U.S. to board his ship, Kang Nam, which left from a port in North Korea recently and could possibly be carrying missile parts or nuclear materials in violation of a UN sanction... but Jung Il has now publicly put the U.S. President on front street by threatening to fire a new round of missiles directly toward Obama's backyard: HAWAII!

After watching President Barack Hussein Obama mercilessly and calculatingly slap the snot out of that 'fly' on national television for annoying him and trying to make him look bad during the CNBC interview, and never even batted his eye or wiped his hands afterwards, it became apparent that Obama is ruthless and my money is on him. Look out Kim Jung Il

And who was that said Obama looks like he wouldn't harm a fly? Pul-leeze!

Kim Jung Il to U.S. President: Do Something Obama

North Korea's ailing leader, Kim Jung Il, has now gone way beyond his usual rhetoric and jive-talking––which earned him, and his country, a place as one of the Axis of Evil nations under the Bush administration. In an official threat to the United States of America, North Korea's Dear Leader declared it was now in the "early phase of all-out confrontation with the US"... raising tensions between the two countries to a very dangerous level.

Angered because of a new round of sanctions that the United Nations ordered against his country for the recent testing of a second nuclear missile, Kim Jung Il has now decided to take the less-than-150-day-in office-President Barack Obama head on. According to Peter Foster of the Telegraph.co.uk:

In a bellicose statement, Pyongyang described the sanctions as the "vile product" of US policy in the region, adding that it would also begin work enriching uranium as it sought to build up stocks of fissile material for its nuclear weapons programme.

The North is thought to have approximately 8,000 spent plutonium fuel rods which, if reprocessed, could yield 6-8kg of high-grade plutonium, or enough to make at least one more nuclear bomb.

The sanctions have also authorised UN member-states to stop and search North Korean vessels on the high seas if they suspect they are carrying banned nuclear or missile components, a measure that has drawn particular ire from Pyongyang. North Korea replied that any attempt to blockade its ships would be regarded "as an act of war and met with a decisive military response", and promised to meet any confrontation with "all-out confrontation".

The belligerent response to the sanctions order, which explicitly rules out the use of military force, was anticipated by the US which has sought to downplay tensions, repeatedly calling for Pyongyang to return to the negotiating table." www.telegraph.co.uk

Now, I am all for talking and negotiating, and trying to resolve conflicts in a peaceful manner... but when a 67-year old, sick, dictator like Kim Jung Il tells a 46-year old, black leader of the free world that "any attempt to blockade its ships would be regarded 'as an act of war' and met with a decisive military response"... and then goes on to promise to meet any confrontation with 'all-out confrontation'" ... them's fighting words anyway you look at it.

President Obama has put forth his noble, gentleman, Rodney King 'why-can't-we-all-get-along' position, but North Korea's Dear Leader is using his clenched fist to pat his butt at Obama and America... and that is unacceptable!!!

The world is watching us. It's time for President Obama to do something––not SAY something–– to let this rogue leader, and all other leaders across the globe who may want to try similar actions against this great nation–– that 'Barack Hussein Obama don't play'!

C'mon now. Do something Obama...

Obama Haters: Osama, Khamenei, Hershkowitz, Jung il, To Name A Few...

President Barack Obama is racking up a list Hater-aide drinkers that resemble the world's list of Who's Who.

On the day of his historic speech to Muslims in Cairo Egypt, the supreme cleric leader of Iran didn't give the country's president, Ahmadinejad, the honors of rebutting Obama's address. No... instead, Khamenei, the chief religious ruler of that region came out swinging–– denouncing the U.S. President's words as 'nothing'... and going as far as to say Obama's words would not result in any change.

"You witness that in Afghanistan, American warplanes bomb people and kill some 150 not once, but 10 and 100 times. They kill people continually. So, terrorist groups, do what you are doing there. If the new president of America wants a change of face, America should change this behaviour. Words and talk will not result in change," Khamenei said.

The Iranian cleric's comments came on the heels of back-to-back scathing, newly released tapes from both the #1 and #2s of Al-Qaeda outfit: al-Zahari and Osama Bin Laden. In an effort to rain on President Obama's parade and discredit his much ballyhooed speech to the Islamic people, Bin Laden released an audio clip that was broadcast on Al Jazeera satellite TV, which accused Barack Obama of giving an "order" to Pakistani leaders to blitz those Talibans who impose Islamic law in the Swat Valley, causing "about a million" civilians to be "homeless and refugees."

Issuing a threat to America and its first African American leader, Bin Laden promised Obama that his Al Qaeda warriors will strike the U.S. for following "in the steps" of George W. Bush. And to add further insult and minimize Obama's influence in the Muslim world, Bin Laden said:

"Obama and his administration have planted new seeds to increase hatred for and revenge against America. So, let the American people prepare to continue reaping what the chiefs of the White House sow during the coming years and decades."

Jumping into the fray to lash out against Obama's Mid-East policy and his speech to the Muslim culture was Jewish leader, Daniel Hershkowitz. In an angered tone Hershkowitz said Obama's speech presented a "fabricated history" and ignored those Palestinians who have not renounced terror.

"The government of Israel is not America's lackey. The relations with the Americans are based on friendship and not submission, and therefore Israel must tell Obama that stopping natural growth in the settlements is a red line," Hershkowiz told the Jerusalem Post.

And on top of all of this drama and collective Obama-bashing currently being played out by these world leaders on the world stage, in the background North Korea's leader Kim Jung il continues firing long and short range missles, and threatening U.S. interests... while daring President Obama to do anything about it.

Well, having been Black all my life, I offer a word of caution to these Obama haters: Osama, Khamenei, Hershkowitz, Jung il, to name a few. They had better watch out. Because... deep down inside of Obama, there must be an 'angry black man' who has some South Chicago 'hood fight' in him. And when he finally becomes unleashed, Obama will probably make each of them bullies look like mild mannered Sunday School teachers by the time his wrath is done!

America Is Broke, Says President Obama

Huh? Did I miss something?

During a recent C-Span interview, President Barack Obama, in keeping with his pledge to inform the American people of what is really going on and to remain true to his mantra of 'transparency', laid all the cards on the table: the United States "we are out of money".

BUT the confusing part of his message was when he went on to say we need to spend more to fix Medicare and Medicaid. I am missing something here.

Would that be equivalent to having lost my job, and exhausted all of my savings, owing my mama, sisters, co-workers, bigmama, and everybody else I could borrow money from... but continuing to max-out one credit card to pay off another credit card, knowing full well that I have no money, and no way to get any money to pay back family or any of the credit card bills when they come due at the end of the month? Incredible!

Here is the transcript between Obama and Steve Scully, as posted on Drudge Report:

"SCULLY: You know the numbers, $1.7 trillion debt, a national deficit of $11 trillion. At what point do we run out of money?

OBAMA: Well, we are out of money now. We are operating in deep deficits, not caused by any decisions we've made on health care so far. This is a consequence of the crisis that we've seen and in fact our failure to make some good decisions on health care over the last several decades.

So we've got a short-term problem, which is we had to spend a lot of money to salvage our financial system, we had to deal with the auto companies, a huge recession which drains tax revenue at the same time it's putting more pressure on governments to provide unemployment insurance or make sure that food stamps are available for people who have been laid off.

So we have a short-term problem and we also have a long-term problem. The short-term problem is dwarfed by the long-term problem. And the long-term problem is Medicaid and Medicare. If we don't reduce long-term health care inflation substantially, we can't get control of the deficit.

So, one option is just to do nothing. We say, well, it's too expensive for us to make some short-term investments in health care. We can't afford it. We've got this big deficit. Let's just keep the health care system that we've got now". www.drudgereport.com

President Obama needs to come back and explain this interview in detail. This is scary!
