The Iron Political Fist of Barack Obama

He's a hard nosed politician borne of Chicagoland politics where you "punish your enemies" and "reward those that stand beside you" - Obama's own words.   Why would it surprise us that he wants to know exactly where potential federal contractors spend their political dollars?  What better way to separate your friends from your enemies? Senator Mitch McConnell thinks Obama's latest threatened executive order is heinous.

“Now, under the guise of ‘transparency,’ the Obama administration reportedly wants to know the political leanings of any company or small business, including those of their officers and directors, before the government decides if they’ll award them federal contracts.”

Stalin would be proud.  Thomas Jefferson not so much.

Netanyahu's Speech to AIPAC was not a Love Poem to Obama

As the Main Stream Media reported it.  Yes, he took the high road and did not disparage Obama as he clearly could have for Obama's speech last week demanding a return to the 1967 borders which essentially would re-divide Jerusalem.  He basically said he thought Obama was a friend of Israel.  That had to be a bitter statement to spit out.

What he also said was, of course, not reported in the Main Stream Media.  It was a clear and cogent explanation of the Israel/Palistine issue.

It’s time to stop blaming Israel for all of the region’s problems.

Let me stress one thing.

Peace between Israelis and Palestinians is a vital need for us.

Peace would be the realization of a powerful and eternal dream.

But it is not a panacea for the endemic problems of the Middle East.

It will not give women in some Arab countries in the Middle East the right to drive a car.

It will not prevent Churches from being bombed.

It will not keep journalists out of jail.

What will change all this?  One word.

Democracy.  Real, genuine, democracy.

By democracy, I don’t just mean elections.

I mean Freedom of Speech.  Freedom of the Press.  Freedom of Assembly.

The Rule of Law.   Rights for women, for gays, for minorities, for everyone.

What the people of the Middle East need is what you have in America, and what we have in Israel.

Democracy.

It’s time to recognize this basic truth:

Israel is not what’s wrong about the Middle East.

Israel is what’s right about the Middle East.

My Friends,

Israel wants peace because we know the pain of terror and the agony of war.

We want peace because we know the blessings peace could bring to us and to our Palestinian neighbors.

But if we hope to advance peace with the Palestinians, then it is time that we admitted another truth.

This conflict has raged for nearly a century because the Palestinians refuse to end it.

They refuse to accept the Jewish state.

This is what this conflict has always been about.

There are many issues that must be resolved between Israelis and Palestinians.

We can and must resolve them.

But I repeat.  We can only make peace with the Palestinians if they are prepared to make peace with the Jewish state.

George Soros has Control of Your Brain

While a critic of biased journalism, I freely admit that Fox News is biased in a rightward fashion.  But facts are stubborn things.  The Fox website is in the middle of a 3 part expose of George Soros mega-billionaire- socialist and his financial iron grip on American media. For instance, Soros is the largest single funder of Columbia School of Journalism.

Soros funds more than just the most famous journalism school in the nation. There are journalism industry associations like:

• The National Federation of Community Broadcasters;

• The National Association of Hispanic Journalists;

• And the Committee to Protect Journalists.

Readers unhappy with Soros’ media influence might be tempted to voice concerns to the Organization of News Ombudsmen – a professional group devoted to “monitoring accuracy, fairness and balance.” Perhaps they might consider a direct complaint to one such as NPR’s Alicia Shepard or PBS’s Michael Getler, both directors of the organization. Unfortunately, that group is also funded by Soros. At the bottom of the Organization of News Ombudsmen’s website front page is the line: “Supported by the Open Society Institute,” a Soros foundation. It is the only organization so listed.

It's as if we're all unwitting protagonists in the movie Invasion of the Body Snatchers.  Everywhere you turn to report extreme journalism bias is run by people with extreme journalism bias.  The movie Serpico also comes to mind.

The Obama White House is far more Nixonian than Nixon's was

If you control the media you control the people. Socialist Saul Alinksy knew this and so does the Obama administration. It's not enough that research shows that 85% of "journalists" consider themselves liberal and the media treatment of Democrats and Obama proves it, but the heavy handed nature of media control by Obama is getting out of hand.

The White House Press Office has refused to give the Boston Herald full access to President Obama’s Boston fund-raiser today, in e-mails objecting to the newspaper’s front page placement of a Mitt Romney op-ed, saying pool reporters are chosen based on whether they cover the news “fairly.” “I tend to consider the degree to which papers have demonstrated to covering the White House regularly and fairly in determining local pool reporters,” White House spokesman Matt Lehrich wrote in response to a Herald request for full access to the presidential visit.

The young kids and white haired liberal fat cats who support this guy are getting jobbed and of course they neither see it, or if they do, they won't accept it. It's the worst kind of herd mentality. I'm embarrassed for Obama supporters and disgusted with the media.

It Pays to Support Pelosi

So the latest batch of waivers for ObamaCare included 38 businesses in Nancy Pelosi's district. You probably didn't catch that little fact in the New York Times, Boston Globe, Washington Post or the hundreds of other legacy media outlets. It's a bit of a sticky wicket that is simply not "fit to print".

So let's do the math of fairness...38 companies times 435 congressional districts means 16,530 companies should get waivers for ObamaCare! Then the Senators...I wonder what they're expecting?

It pays to be a FON - Friend of Nancy.

Not a Peep from the Liberal Press

Apparently it is more important for the press to report for weeks on President Obama's series of victory laps on the Osama Bin Laden death than it is to do actual reporting.

Union thugs have been accused of beatings and other harassment by some members of their rank and file for reporting illegal union schemes. Unions have always been for the people who run them and not for the workers who contribute giant union dues to prop them up.

The main stream media thinks there's nothing to see here - just move along.

The BBC comes clean

The BBC has today admitted to a "massive bias to the left" for decades.  This is like pulling a card from the bottom of the house of cards that has propped up the elite leftist global journalism that includes the likes of New York Times, Washington Post, the Associated Press and on and on.

Add this to the Journolist names that are being revealed and we have blatant damning evidence of the far left media cabal that Jourtegrity Lost has been whining about for two years. 

All those who have denied the existence of this massive bias now look like either fools or liars.

Come home journalists, come home.  Let your confessions set you free.
