WHILE THE NEWS MEDIA CONTINUES TO WITHER
from TPATH, ©2013
(Mar. 2, 2013) — Last week we posted the facts about the sequester. This week the political hysteria continues as the media, Fox News included, and big government leftists march forward with fear tactics and just plain lies. Then, Maxine Waters, who actually is dumber than Joe Biden, announced that the cuts in government growth will cost 170 million jobs. Someone may like to point out to this jewel of colossal ignorance, America only has 140 million people working right now. Which by the way is about 2 million less than when the usurper took office.
First we need to take a quick look at the chart above and note the drastic “so called” cuts, keeping in mind as you do, that if the entire sequester amount is applied, the Federal budget will, in fact, still grow as a result of automatic budget increases to every single government program.
What does this mean? Well, common sense would dictate that not one person would lose his job, not one program would be cut or closed down, they just would not grow as much in this next year as the progressives had planned. Amazingly enough, only in Washington is a net increase considered a cut.
For certain every news reporter, news channel and politician understands this shell game being played. Well, Except for Maxine Waters who probably doesn’t know where she parked her car. All of these people are hoping that Americans are as stupid as Waters. Okay, maybe not that stupid, but stupid none the less.
While its true that a large portion of the sequester amount was earmarked for the Military, which by the way clearly indicates this foolishness was designed by Hussein Obama, if the balance of the cuts in growth were spread out across the vastness of government programs, not one person would be fired or furloughed. Remember, your President, he’s not mine, he has told me that many times over the past four years, is using this sequester as a tool to further beat down the poltroon Republican Party at the expense of many hardworking families who just happen to be employed by the government. This is beyond despicable but entirely consistent with they way leftist people and governments use its citizens as fodder.
A final and very important point on this is that Obama has refused to allow a Senate bill to pass which would give him sole authority as to which areas of growth would be cut. This may sound a bit out of character for the “exalted one” but he needs to be able to blame anyone and everyone, except himself, for any services lost. If he had the complete sequester disbursement authority, he might get blamed.
This seems a bit paranoid for him, since the media has looked the other way after he went to bed while American heroes were being slaughtered in Benghazi, billions of dollars were being given to the Muslim Brotherhood, Communists, Islamic extremists and home grown terrorists made up his inner circle, an arsenal machine guns and weapons were handed over to Mexican drug cartels, and shoulder-fired missiles, capable of taking down passenger airliners, were provided to Muslim fanatics.
Without the media, obama could not maintain his grip on the information doled out to Joe bite me, Maxine Waters and others of their IQ level. So there is a need to attack and dismantle the media power by taking away their license to use OUR airways and their business licenses to operate (they do still have ethical standards to meet which includes being truthful). If such efforts are already underway, they sorely need to make themselves more visible so the rest of us can lend our support to their effort(s).
On the other hand, and it galls me to even suggest this, but if there were a few people with reporter skills so lacking in integrity (you know the type I mean: Jay Carney, Brian Williams, etc.) that they would call themselves White House reporters (how do we even know whether any of the current reporters have ever been to the white house?) and then report propaganda diametrically opposite to that being reported by present MSM, perhaps we could start to undo some of obama’s damage.
Right on, TPATH.
But I disagree with you on two points.
Point Number 1: I don’t believe Maxine Waters is dumber than Joe Biden. The thing is, Maxine has a valid excuse: she was born dumb while Biden, on the other hand, has worked hard for many years to achieve the low level of thought management that he so aptly displays, none so well remembered as during the Vice Presidential debates of 2012.
Point Number 2: Actually, Obama is nobody’s President, he can’t be: he’s not Constitutionally qualified. Never presented a real Birth Certificate and all the rest of the stuff that goes with the proper vetting of a candidate. Heck, Barry Soetoro, aka Obama, isn’t even a legal citizen. Matter of fact, Obama is an illegal immigrant.
But this spending is way over the top. The US can actually have a surplus if we’ve a mind to, with the right leadership. Don’t listen to those nutty college economic professors, I didn’t, when they said carrying debt is a positive. Ask any business owner about the difference of black ink vs. red ink.
Good editorial.
