Washington DC, Sep 16, 2012. As President Barack Hussein Obama's corporate sponsors see his poll numbers sliding, many are holding back on their financial support for the President's reelection campaign.
Their money is either sitting on the sidelines or shifting to the probable winner of November's election, Republican challenger Mitt Romney.
The Obama Reelection Campaign has a new strategy for dealing with the erosion of financial support.
They have scheduled a new fundraising effort called the National Yard Sale for Obama, and have it scheduled for next weekend. Additional innovative fundraisers may be scheduled if the President's foreign policy failures continue, and if our economy continues to lose jobs.
Previous fundraising initiatives have included the Obama gift registry along with “skip a meal and send us the money instead.” If you want four more years of inept leadership, then you should set up your own yard sale to help raise money for the President's reelection campaign. If you'd rather have a change in leadership, then you know what to do.
"It didn't work before, but it might save my reelection bid"
Washington DC, Sep 15, 2012. As President Barack Hussein Obama, D-Kenya, is besieged by foreign policy failures abroad, failed economic policies at home, and sees his rival candidate Mitt Romney starting to move ahead in the polls, he has found a way to improve his reelection chances.
President Obama has ordered FED chief Ben Bernake to "start printing money as fast as you can," in order to create the illusion of some economic improvement, and flood the economy with cheaper money that might create more jobs.
The FED announced on Thursday that it would start pumping $40 billion in newly printed money into the U.S. economy each month until it saw a sustained upturn in the weak jobs market.
This strategy, known officially as Quantitative Easing, has worked before for the Kenyan born President. Printing more money creates a temporary boost in the stock market, since each dollar becomes worth less, and this creates a false sense of economic improvement.
Unfortunately, the overall effect of increasing the money supply is to devalue our currency, causing inflation and driving prices up over time for everyone. But the inflationary effect will lag by around three months, making this a good strategic move for Obama with an election less than two months away.
This will hit hardest on small businesses, retired people on fixed incomes, and all workers who do not belong to strong unions that can demand and get fat pay increases to offset the new higher prices. It will have the least effect on people who are dependent on welfare and food stamps, since both are indexed for inflation.
In other words, it shouldn't hurt Obama's political base as much as it will hurt Romney's.
In response, the ratings firm Egan-Jones cut its credit rating on the U.S. government to "AA-" from "AA," citing its opinion that quantitative easing from the Federal Reserve would hurt the U.S. economy and the country's credit quality.
In its downgrade, the firm said that issuing more currency and depressing interest rates through purchasing mortgage-backed securities does little to raise the U.S.'s real gross domestic product, but reduces the value of the dollar.
In turn, this increases the cost of commodities, which will pressure the profitability of businesses and increase the costs of consumers thereby reducing consumer purchasing power, the firm said.
In April, Egan-Jones cuts the U.S. credit rating to "AA" from "AA+" with a negative watch, citing a lack of progress in cutting the mounting federal debt.
Moody's Investors Service currently rates the United States Aaa, Fitch rates the country AAA, and Standard & Poor's rates the country AA-plus. All three of those ratings have a negative outlook.
This video explains how Quantitative Easing works, and how the FED is working hard to make sure that Goldman Sachs is profitable:
Seaman, OH, Sept 10, 2012. Yesterday, Vice President Joe Biden
made a campaign stop at a diner frequented by bikers, cozying up with potential supporters
in this crucial swing state.
He immediately headed to the counter, where he asked patrons of
Cruisers Diner, "Can I borrow one of your bikes? They don't let me ride
anymore."
"Probably not," the man responded. "Probably not," Biden repeated, laughing.
AP photographer Carolyn Kaster snapped a photo of the Biden sitting
with a group of bikers called the "Shaddowmen" -- one of the members, a
female biker, sat on the vice president's lap.
Vice President Biden is well known for his ability to charm voters from various ethnic groups and minority cultures. While usually well intentioned, his comments sometimes are often clumsy and cause controversies.
Biden praises Hindus for the quality of their donuts
While on a visit in New Hampshire in 2006, Biden told an Indian-American
supporter that "In Delaware, the largest growth in population is
Indian-Americans moving from India.
You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a
Dunkin' Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I'm not joking . .
."
That remark created a firestorm of criticism for his patronizing manner. But Biden went on to explain that he has nothing but respect for Hindus who make and sell donuts.
Biden told us "They really do a great job, and they really make the best donuts."
President Barack Hussein Obama, D-Kenya, will probably be remembered for some of his most famous quotes.
And these will include things like:
"You didn't build it, someone else did"
"The Cambridge police acted stupidly."
"I've now been in 57 states, with one left to go"
"When you spread the wealth around, it's good for everybody."
Lets look at some quotes from some other American Presidents. These are men who got a lot of things done, and didn't spend a lot of time golfing and vacationing:
George Washington:
To be prepared for war is one of the most effective means of preserving peace.
Thomas Jefferson:
When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. When the government fears the people, there is liberty.
Abraham Lincoln:
A house divided against itself cannot stand.
Theodore Roosevelt:
Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far.
Franklin D. Roosevelt:
The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.
Harry S Truman: The buck stops here.
Gerald Ford A government big enough to give you everything you want is a government big enough to take from you everything you have.
John F. Kennedy:
Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.
Ronald Reagan:
Mr. Gorbachev, open this gate. Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!
Barack Hussein Obama: (speaking about the Republicans) If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun.
Washington DC, Sep 3, 2012. Despite his poor job performance, prominent Democrat Party officials are now calling for President Barack Hussein Obama, D-Kenya, to be added to the national monument of Presidents at Mt. Rushmore, near Keystone SD.
"Forget about his poor results," Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-NV, told us. "He is still part black, he made history and should therefore be commemorated on a prominent national monument."
As President Obama enters the final weeks of his reelection campaign, his weak poll numbers are causing anger, bitterness and dismay from his loyal supporters. Ultra Leftwing political commentator Chris Mathews, D-San Franciso, is so upset that he is talking even faster, and doing a much better job of not allowing any of his guests to answer any questions he asks them.
President Obama has been most noteworthy for the improvement in his golf game and his lavish vacation choices, rather than any real accomplishments he has made in office. After almost four years in office, he has accomplished almost nothing, with the sole exception of legalizing gays in the military. In fact, every single problem that he promised to fix has gotten much worse.
His socialized medicine initiative will doubtlessly be repealed if he fails to win reelection and loses Congress in November's election.
20 foot tall chair, dedicated to Pres. Obama
Despite all of this, President Obama is still beloved by a large portion of our population because he brings diversity to the White House. No matter how badly he performs his job, he will still be popular with this group. This voting group cares little about actual results, unless a Republican president is in office.
As Clint Eastwood suggested at last week's Republican Convention, the Obama presidency can best be symbolized by an empty chair. And this analogy has seemed to have caught on with the American public. Empty chair memorials are popping up all over the country now.
The City of Martinsville, VA, a state that President Obama narrowly carried in the 2008 Presidential election, has erected a 20 foot tall empty chair as their Obama Monument in their downtown shopping area.
Tampa FL, Aug 26, 2012. As the Republicans are preparing for their convention next week, so are the Democrat protesters. The radical Democrats have vowed to move ahead with their plans, rain or shine.
Every leftwing fringe group is planning some sort of demonstration designed to disrupt the GOP Convention. The protesters plan to make it more difficult for the Republicans to get their message out by staging elaborate and disruptive protests that will draw media attention.
Code Pink says they will be there wearing their "vagina suits" to protest the Republican war on women. They believe that if they dress up in "big vagina costumes" undecided voters will rally behind President Obama this November.They will also protest former President Bush's war in Iraq, but not current President Obama's war in Afghanistan.
PETA (People for Ethical Treatment of Animals) will be protesting at the convention, because most Republicans aren't vegetarians. The fact that most Democrats aren't vegetarians too has no bearing on this. They aren't planning to protest the Democrat Convention. Planned Parenthood will also be protesting at the GOP Convention too, because they say most Republicans are opposed to abortions.They say they have proof that most Republicans refuse to terminate their pregnancies, and they find this offensive. The AFL-CIO and SEIU will also be well represented outside the GOP Convention in Tampa. Their main complaint is that most Republicans refuse to pay unskilled labor $40 per hour, and refuses to give their employees unlimited job security. They also say it is unfair that some employers are asking workers to pay a portion of their healthcare insurance and pay into their pension funds.
PETA protests against Chicken McNuggets
The CP-USA (Communist Party USA) will be there protesting the GOP's failure to support President Barack Hussein Obama, D-Kenya. They feel there should be no alternative option for voters. They have always been strong supporters of a one party system of government for the USA.
NAMBLA (National Man-Boy Love Association) will be protesting the GOP's hardline on child abuse, especially when it involves the same sex rape of minors. They find the Democrat Party much more tolerant of their lifestyle and their beliefs.
The OWS (Occupy Wall Street) movement has been resurrected for the GOP Convention by their managers at the DNC. They will be protesting against capitalism, student loan repayments, and the unfair distribution of wealth among all people on earth. Their spokesman Warren Buffett will be leading a protest against the very rich.
The NAACP will be out in force, protesting against segregated buses in Selma Alabama in 1953. They say even though these conditions have changed over the past six decades, they really have nothing else to protest about. So they are sticking with the theme that made them famous and put them on the map.
The Sierra Club will be protesting against Americans using electricity, and other forms of energy that are harmful for Mother Earth. They say that Republicans are the worst offenders in this regard, and many of them are addicted to fossil fuels and actually enjoy harming the environment. They feel that the GOP Convention is the ideal place to protest this.
OWS protesters are upset about Supply and Demand
Most on the radical left feel that the GOP should not be holding conventions and selecting candidates. They feel that President Barack Hussein Obama, D-Kenya, should be allowed to run unopposed.
They are offended that anyone would not want to reelect President Obama, who they see as one of their own kind.
While each protest group has their own specific theme, they are basically protesting democracy. They feel that only the Democrat party should be allowed to hold conventions and select candidates.
Washington DC, Aug. 24, 2012. President Barack Hussein Obama, D-Kenya, has a Twitter account has with 18.8 million followers - but
at least three fourths of them really don't exist, according to reports.
A new Web tool has determined that 70% of Obama's crowd includes "fake followers," The New York Times reports in a story about how Twitter followers can be purchased.
"The
practice has become so widespread that StatusPeople, a social media
management company in London, released a Web tool last month called the
Fake Follower Check that it says can ascertain how many fake followers
you and your friends have," the Times reports.
"Fake
accounts tend to follow a lot of people but have few followers," said
Rob Waller, a founder of StatusPeople. "We then combine that with a few
other metrics to confirm the account is fake."
Notes the Times:
If
accurate, the number of fake followers out there is surprising.
According to the StatusPeople tool, 71 percent of Lady Gaga's nearly 29
million followers are "fake" or "inactive." So are 70 percent of
President Obama's nearly 19 million followers.
The practice of buying followers is surprisingly easy. A Google search
for “buy Twitter followers” turns up dozens of Web sites like USocial.net, InterTwitter.com, and FanMeNow.com that sell Twitter followers by the thousands (and often Facebook likes and YouTube views).
Obama Follower, John Doe
At BuyTwitterFollow.com,
for example, users simply enter their Twitter handle and credit card
number and, with a few clicks, see the ranks of their followers swell in
three to four days.
It generally costs between one and five cents to buy a follower. Celebrities like President Obama often buy followers to create the impression that they are more popular than they really are.
This can sometimes help sway voters who are undecided. They see this huge number of followers and think "he must be good, look at all the followers he has."
