That 8.3% Unemployment Rate is Total BS – 1.2 Million DROPPED OUT of Labor Force Last Month

That 8.3% Unemployment Rate is Total BS – 1.2 Million DROPPED OUT of Labor Force Last Month

By marfdrat on February 3, 2012

At CNN (and presumably other lamestream media outlets), they’re trumpeting the “great news” about the reduction in the unemployment rate from December’s 8.5% to 8.3% in January. Meanwhile, the unemployment rate fell to 8.3%. That is the lowest since February 2009. Hiring was much stronger than expected, and once it was apparent the job gains were broad [...]

Petulant Boy-King’s Chrysler 300C Fails to Sell for $1,000,000 on eBay

Petulant Boy-King’s Chrysler 300C Fails to Sell for $1,000,000 on eBay

By marfdrat on February 2, 2012

Gee, I wonder why? A quick look at KBB.com tells me that this car is worth about $17,598 in excellent condition (and most used cars aren’t). If anything, it’s worth less than that, because he probably smoked in it.  President Obama’s former Chrysler 300C failed to sell for $1 million in an eBay auction. The [...]

Don’t Be Raaaaacist. The Food-Stamp President is Trying to Stimulate the Economy, of Course

Don’t Be Raaaaacist. The Food-Stamp President is Trying to Stimulate the Economy, of Course

By marfdrat on January 30, 2012

Various race-baiting demagoguers have stated it’s raaaaacist to call Barry the Petulant Boy-King Obama the “food stamp president,” as Newt Gingrich did in a couple of the Republican debates. If he’s not the food stamp president, then what of this story from Big Government? Over the last three years, the number of Americans on food [...]

Here’s an image taken from the podium at a recent speech given by the Petulant Boy-King.  The Reuters article caption is below it. A teleprompter used by U.S. President Barack Obama is pictured as he meets members of the audience following remarks at Conveyer Engineering and Manufacturing in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, January 25, 2012. Obama [...]

#ChangeIs…Incredibly Easy to Mock. Come On, Everybody – Join in the Fun on Twitter

By marfdrat on January 21, 2012

You’d have thought the president’s pointy-headed advisors could have come up with something better this. The hashtag #changeis is already going wild on Twitter. Here are some great examples: Change Is – National debt equal to GDP Change Is – No nasty oil-carrying Keystone XL pipeline Change Is – 14 million new foodstamp recipients Change [...]

Yes, the guy with the big ears took over Main Street, USA (restricting all the little people who were on vacations that they paid for) for a speech. No, not Mickey – the one who’s occupying the White House.  Talk about setting yourself up for jokes. See more pictures at Buzzfeed

CNN Reports Perry Dropping Out of Presidential Race

By marfdrat on January 19, 2012

Via Hot Air: CNN reports that Rick Perry will withdraw from the Republican presidential race today, based on information from two sources in the campaign.  No one who followed the polling can be surprised by this decision.  Perry has not come out of the mid-single digits in South Carolina for weeks, and his debate performance on [...]

President Obama Forgets (or Lies) – Policy Reminder #1

By marfdrat on January 18, 2012

Americans for Prosperity is running a 7-day campaign leading up to the Petulant Boy-King’s next (sorry) state of the union address, to remind us of all the promises he’s made – and broken. Here’s Policy Reminder #1: President Obama Forgets he signaled a new corruption-free era in Washington. But AFP activists want to remind him [...]

Obama’s Keystone Calamity: More Lies, and Favoring America’s Enemies Over its Friends

Obama’s Keystone Calamity: More Lies, and Favoring America’s Enemies Over its Friends

By marfdrat on January 18, 2012

Ezra Levant of The Source (Canada) examines Obama’s confounding decision to reject the Keystone XL pipeline project. He rightly determines that Obama chooses the Saudis and our enemy Hugo Chavez to supply oil over the Canadians, our friends. He also features Obama’s lies about eliminating our dependence on Middle Eastern and Venezuelan oil.

Mr. President, please don’t play the race card in 2012…

By marfdrat on January 16, 2012

From Allen West’s Facebook page. He calls ‘em like he sees ‘em. All Americans, black or white – and every shade in between – must be allowed to voice their opinions, level their criticisms and engage in candid discussion without fear of being labeled “racist” simply because of the color of their skin. This is [...]

Oprah: Petulant Boy-King is “A Masterful Leader”

By marfdrat on January 14, 2012

Masterful, yes, if your specialty is sending the U.S. economy right down the toilet. Wile E. Obama and his ACME Economic Destruction Co. have been doing a masterful job of that. Here’s Oprah, genuflecting: And here’s some truth about Chicago Jesus and his “mastery” of the economy: Gas prices (which, he promised, would “necessarily rise”). [...]

Who Will Have the Courage to Face the Arithmetic?

Bill Whittle describes our situation perfectly: we have spent all the money there is, and all the money there will be for years to come. It cannot go on. It won’t be pretty, but it can be done. Who will do it? We must do it.

By marfdrat on January 11, 2012

Looks like the Petulant Boy-King can’t win. He’s lost ground with the independents and some Democrats. Now, he’s losing the whacked-out far-left branch of his constituency. First Matt Damon, then Angelina Jolie, and now Harry Belafonte: “My question is, what legacy will he leave, having the opportunity to serve under such hugely dramatic circumstances and [...]
