OBAMA'S DEBATE STRATEGY
LESSON ONE: Never underestimate President B.H. Obama.
In this first debate of the 2012 season, all of the pundits are asking "Why didn't Obama mention the 47%, Bain Capital and other points?"
Easy, Obama and his strategists knew that Romney would be expecting these questions. Romney would have answers ready, and Obama didn't want clarification of these items with 50 million people listening.
If the 47% were laid to rest, a month of hammering on this would be lost.
Additionally, by avoiding points that are the backbone of the Democratic campaign rhetoric, he knew the media would dwell on this ad infinitum today and the rest of the week. As usual, Obama's adoring media is doing the job for him.
So the doubt continues.
More later.

Obama, Nerobama, It is time for a change.
Nerobama continued fiddling, campaigning and fund-raising while the embassies were in flames. It is incomprehensible, inconceivable, and a myriad of other adjectives describing events beyond belief and reason.
How can the "commander-in-chief continue to campaign while the country is in turmoil and a state of invasion?
How can a President continue to deceive, toss out red-herring, apologize to enemies, and generally be an embarrassment to the nation?
How can the leader of a nation kowtow to those who would have this country ignore its Constitution and basic founding principles?
He has been campaigning for about five years during which time he took the oath of office. Apparently, he thought that was just another occasion to dress-up and make another empty speech.
Some find Obama part of sinister forces determined to weaken the United States , subject to the United Nations rather than a free, independent sovereign nation.
Perhaps, Obama is not as evil as all that. Perhaps Obama just never understood the job. Perhaps, in his arrogance, he doesn't even realize that he is being used by those forces.
Congress, especially the two years under total liberal control, has been a willing co-conspirator. Like permissive parents, they have spoiled a willful child until HE has become spoiled, totally out of control. After each destructive decision, prancing about, he turns, grins, and waits for approving applause from his adoring public, the fawning media, and the gushy entertainment industry, since that is what he has come to expect.
It is time to rein in this belligerent brat, before he brings our entire house down.

What is this United States of America?”
“What is this United States of America ?”
If one listens, reads or watches, they will be befuddled about just what this country is and who its people are?
“Americans won’t do that kind of work.” “Americans are hard working people trying to get ahead.”
“Americans won’t stand for that.” “Americans will tolerate anything.”
“Americans are irreverent.” “Americans are too constricted by their Puritan origins.”
“Americans are rich.” “Americans are poor.”
“Americans are well educated.” “Americans are falling behind.” “Americans are too lazy to take advantage of available educational opportunities.”
“Americans are only interested in sports, entertainment and video games.” “Americans spend too much time at work.”
“Americans are bigoted.” “Americans are racist.” “Americans are victims.” “Americans are too fat.” “Americans have eating disorders because they try to be too thin.”
I cold go on and on with the list. Thousands of contradictory statements describe Americans.
Americans may be all of the above, none of the above, and all sorts of combinations.
Americans come from every, every walk of life, every other country on the planet, every ethnic group, race, color, religion and economic circumstance.
Americans are very rich, dirt poor and every level in between.
Anyone who tries to pigeonhole a definition of Americans only displays an extreme lack of depth in understanding this country and its peoples.
The United States of America should not be confused with the various governing bodies from Washington DC down to the smallest town council. Those are only our employees, and should be treated as such lest they become our masters.
The United States of America is not a set of laws, rules, regulations, though these things greatly affect one’s life, from the cradle to the grave.
The United States of America is a body of living, breathing individuals, each as distinct as a snowflake.

INCONGRUOUS PATHWAYS
Our “Radical” Islamic friends are using methods similar to the Marxist to infiltrate, manipulate and control the US America .
The liberals are leading the parade supporting “tolerance for Muslims.” Those who question want investigations, and a careful approach are racist bigots. "Terrorist attack" is politically incorrect speech. Here are just a few of the incongruities leaving me in quandary:
How will the liberal ladies who want state-provided (taxpayer paid) birth control, abortions, child care, etc. tolerate Sharia ideology if not law? Females are the chattels of their fathers until he gives, sells, or otherwise marries them to a husband who can beat or murder them.
Will women who think they should be able to wear anything and not be harassed, be ready to trade their bikinis for berkas?
What about the guys in Speedos? That won’t work; men must be covered a minimum from waist to knees. The clothing should be loose, not showing their form, so no need to put a sock in it.
How will the LGBT confront the homophobe Muslim Community? Will they return to the closet, just throw shoes, or give them a ham for dinner?
Political correct speech will take on an entire new meaning.
The Gun Control PAC will find it difficult removing firearms, assault riffles, and other weapons from the hands of our Muslim Brothers. They really like their guns, bombs, missiles and other WMDs. The “cold dead hands” will probably be those of anyone who tries to take them.
Guiding the “If it feels good; do it” folks to Iman will certainly present a challenge to any Imam.
The “progressive movement” has demonstrated mastery in the fields of propaganda, re-education by controlling education, coercion, demoralization, victimization, etc. However, I am afraid they will soon meet their match and perhaps a new master.
Once the Muslim community is firmly ensconced with elected representatives from the town constable to Congress, White House and Supreme Court, they won’t be giving up much.
These two diametrically opposing lifestyles coexisting in the same country, much let in one political party will be virtually impossible. Once the honeymoon is over, the struggle for control will be the battle of the century

Amazing Video or Amazing Hoax
It is beyond comprehension that Government Officials of the United States of America would be so taken in as to even comment of this YouTube offering.
Anyone would recognize that is video is being used by the anti-west leaders in the Mideast to motivate the illiterate Islamic masses to wage war on the U.S.A. Had it not been this, they would have found something else. This type of ploy is as old as written history, and probably before.
Our leaders may have jumped on this excuse because it provided a red herring to draw attention from their own ineptness.
This is my first blog. Only my thoughts are presented here. They may or may not agree with yours. I always reserve the right to change my mind.
You can post your comments; I may or may not address them.
