President Obamas Deceptive American Jobs Act Bill

President Obama exaggerates when he claims “independent economists” say his jobs bill “would create nearly 2 million jobs.” The median estimate in a survey of 34 economists showed 288,000 jobs could be saved or created over two years under the president’s plan.
Obama also claimed one economist said the Republican jobs plan “could actually cost us jobs.” That economist said he did not have enough information to provide a jobs estimate, although he added that focusing on cutting spending “could be harmful in the short run.”
As he has on other occasions, Obama suggested in a speech on October 18th 20011 in North Carolina that there is a general consensus among “independent economists” that his bill The American Jobs Act would create 2 million jobs if passed by Congress.
When asked for the names of the independent experts, the White House gave the names of two economists: Mark Zandi of Moody’s Analytics and Joel Prakken of Macroeconomics Advisers. But only one of them came close to the “nearly 2 million jobs” figure touted by Obama. Zandi estimated the bill would add 1.9 million jobs. Prakken estimated 1.3 million additional jobs next year. (In an email exchange, Prakken said those 1.3 million new jobs would drop to 800,000 in 2013.)


+

So, only one of the two economists cited by the White House actually claims that the president’s bill could create “nearly 2 million jobs.”
More importantly, both are at the high end of job-creation estimates. Bloomberg News surveyed 34 economists to gauge the impact of the president’s jobs bill. Of those, 28 economists estimated how many jobs would be created by the bill. The median estimate was 275,000 jobs in 2012 and 13,000 jobs in 2013 for a total of 288,000 jobs — far fewer than the 2 million claimed by the president.

So i say to you, Why in this age of instant information and with the curiosity of the American people to seek the truth and exploit the facts in an attempt to keep the truth in the light and to do away with dishonesty, would anyone anywhere speak any untruth in an attempt to further his or her own agenda. we will find you out! especially when you are arguably the most singularly incompetent and blatantly pro-socialist president in American history and will forever be the most scrutinized individual in American politics.

Liberation: a play for pay proposition!

This is just going to be an opinion rant on my part in regards to the U.S Military roll as what i refer to as the Worlds Police..

 An ALL volunteer force consisting of Americas finest young men and women from all walks of life sent off to do battle against the evils of the world. although i do not always agree with the deployment of these brave souls, i do believe this is one area in the federal budget that should not be cut, i believe there are areas that could be streamlined in order to make our fighting force more financially efficient eg. make all purchases from privatized business instead of government contractors who charge triple what any given items actual value! but I'm getting sidetracked from my thought here... i believe that if the United States military is going to be called upon to help liberate foreign nations from the grips of tyranny and oppression than we need to lay out some parameters and some limitations prior to engagement of our services. yes i say we approach this from now on like a business, draw up contracts for services rendered and all parties involved in the acquisition of our liberating organization known as the Armed services of the United states of America.
 Whereas the President and a legal and financial team sit down with the leader of the country/and or peoples seeking liberation from the oppressive  or controlling regime or from the terror organization of which they seek to be liberated from and work out the estimate of cost for services and inventory needed to successfully complete and provide the desired result of requested engagement. upon agreement of the engagement details and the end game details then the financial terms can be discussed whereas the contractee pays the contractor a retainers fee of no less than half of the estimated cost up front, and the remaining cost and any and all unexpected cost increase at the successful outcome of the mission! with this approach to our military engagements throughout the world the United States is guaranteed to recover most if not all financial cost of fighting for the freedoms of nations that through fault of there own do not have the capability to protect themselves from an oppressive government or an aggressive foreign force intent on invading and conquering. this in turn would also greatly alleviate the financial Burden of the American taxpayers to fund foreign conflicts. so in closing i would say to the rest of the world, if you want or need the United States military to come and save your ASS from tyranny... just sign here on the dotted line and pay up and then get the hell out of the way till we are done!and once we have saved your butts and restored order to your lives, don't turn around and bitch about the collateral damage caused by your wanting your freedom returned to you!

Foriegn Aid

it just seems to me that if the United States of America is going to continue to send monies to foreign nations there should be a clear and precise message as to what we expect in return for our investment!and first and foremost if this is a nation such as Pakistan where we know for a fact that although we are giving them billions of dollars they continue to allow entities hostile to the US and her allies to not only exist within their borders but allow them to recruit and train to commit hostile terror acts against the united states. in my humble opinion the United States should not commit one more dime to Pakistan unless the Pakistani authorities are willing to step aside and allow a team of US special forces to clear and contain any and all persons considered to be aggressors towards the America and her allies such as Al Queda, Hezbollah, Hamas... if the federal government is going to send taxpayer dollars to a foreign nation, We the People have a right to know that OUR money is not going to a nation that harbors our enemies... below you'll find a link to an article showing how incompetent our government is in handling OUR money!
 American Aid debacle in Pakistan
please share this with your friends if you agree that the United States should cease all foreign aid without guarantees from recipients that they are serving our interests and not those of terror organizations!

Democrat By Default

In early 2006 I was a 23 year old democrat by default. I had no understanding of the term liberal, conservative, left-wing, right-wing, democrat or republican. That being said, somehow I had beliefs ingrained in my subconscious which had no origin I could remember. I was afraid to label myself as a Republican. I was reluctant to hear the opinions of conservative thinkers. I believed that liberals stood for freedom of choice and that republicans . . . well, were the opposite. One day I realized these thoughts were not my own. Thus began my personal journey into the world of politics. AM talk radio saved my soul. (that and an hour and a half commute to work, which gave me time to listen, think and contemplate both sides of every argument) Radio was the only place I could get both sides of the story and It made the media bias of mainstream outlets blatantly obvious. You only need to hear a liberal and a conservative debate for a short while to realize that conservative ideals are based in historical fact while liberal ideals are based in emotion. Emotion, especially empathy and compassion, are admirable and required traits in any good person but they cannot be allowed to blind us from the big picture which includes the future of our country and plainly, the future of our children. We as citizens are morally obligated to help our fellow man but forcing other Americans to support your causes by way of government mandates can only be defined as tyranny. Too may people believe that governments role is to support one person by taking from another. That is not the American Dream. Dreams are not guaranteed, they are goals to be relentlessly pursued. The pursuit of happiness is just that, a pursuit. No other person is to blame for your failures just as no one else deserves credit for your success. I am no longer a liberal democrat by any stretch of the imagination. I proudly wear the banner of conservative republican. 235 years after our countries founding the American experiment is still fragile and must be defended. 99% of the people who came before us lived under ruthless dictatorship and the idea that man can govern themselves is still worth fighting for. Millions of service men and woman have fought and died for our right to live free. I will not allow their sacrifice to be in vein. It is difficult to appreciate something that was not earned through hard work and struggle, I would argue that being born free is no different. It is easy to take for granted the freedoms we enjoy each day but achieving this freedom in the first place was no easy task. Take time to learn about the founding fathers, the constitution, publious and the federalist papers, the revolutionary war. In your research, take notice of how world history and the history of man is a story of a powerful few ruling the many. We have been given the gift to control our own lives, country and government. An opportunity not afforded to most people who inhabited this beautiful world before us. Join us in our journey to preserve the republic and to save the country that is our children's future.

my Goal

it is my goal with this blog to inform, enlighten, encourage and maybe sometimes enrage my readers. i feel for far to long here in America that We the People have allowed ourselves to become more and more complacent in regards to our interaction with our governing bodies. my main focus here will be at the Federal level because i feel they are the greatest threat to the freedom and sovereignty of the American people and the land we call home.. i invite and expect open and honest input and debate. my hope is to get Americans engaged in conversation about current and future events that will determine the direction our great country is and will be headed for us and future generations! if we fail to act now to regain what is our inalienable rights as Americans as granted to us by our creator than we have no one to blame for their demise but ourselves! the question i have for those of you who will engage me in this forum is when the time comes and you are called upon to express your rights and stand up for the future generations who know not of the fine line of perilous footprints being left for them to tread within. will you have the courage of conviction to stand up for them or will you hide behind your shelter of complacency and watch as the greatest nation on the planet Earth whithers and dies?
stand up, and wake up America! your nation needs you... your children need you.... your legacy demands this of you!     are you with me?
