Barack Obama:Enemy Of The People

With each passing day,it becomes more and more apparent that President Obama is more concerned with how he appears to liberals in general than he cares about the safety and well-being of the American public.

His latest example of putting style over substance is his threat to have the Department of Justice take legal action against Arizona’s recently passed immigration control law.

The measure, SB1070, which is an adaptation of a rarely-enforced federal statute, is seen by bleeding hearts as a “threat to civil rights.”

Such an attitude completely ignores the monetary strain that illegal immigrants place upon social services, not to mention the increase in violent crime, drug dealing, etc. that Wasington has overlooked for years.

So Mr. President, if I where you I would spend some time thinking about the civil rights of American citizens.

Even the ones who were misguided enough to vote for you.

Forget Obama's Birth Certificate,What Else Is he Hiding?

That's an issue that may never be settled to anyone's satisfaction.

How about asking Obama about some of these things?:

His kindergarten records
Punahou school records
Occidental College records
Columbia University records
Columbia thesis
Harvard Law School records
Harvard Law Review articles
Recordsfrom the University of Chicago
His passport
His medical records
Hisfiles from his years as an Illinois state senator
Illinois State Bar Association records
And his adoption records.

Why Mr. President are you hiding all of these things.
These actions seem strange coming fro a man who promised us "the most transparent administration in history."

The Obama White House Fails AGAIN On Illegal Immigration

The White House had announced in July that by August 1st National Guard troops would be stationed on the Arizona border, the main entrance point for illegal immigrants.

On August 11th, Department of Homeland Security chief Janet Napalitano said it would still be weeks before the troops, which were supposed to have been in place 10 days earlier, would begin to arrive.

The White House is blaming the delay on the difficulties involved in the logistics of the deployment.

So let me see if I understand this.

The same administration that is promising to begin bringing home thousands of U.S. troops from Iraq can’t figure out how to move 1,200 National Guard troops from one part of America to another part of America.

Don’t stop sending our troops the care packages just yet.

And Napolitano?
She’s doing what she usually does.

Is Paul Kanjorski Violation Of Campaign Finance Rules?

In the mail today there was a glossy, full color, 4 page announcement from Paul Kanjorski outlining how he is working hard to so something about rising energy costs.
Blah blah blah.
Hey Paul, here's a little reality check. This didn't happen overnight, where the hell have you been on this issue for the past 24 years that you've been in office?
And although I can't form a sentence containing the words "Paul Kanjorski" and "ethics" and keep a straight face, I do have a question that perhaps someone with more knowledge of FEC regulations can answer for me:

With Mr. Kanjorski spending taxpayer funds in order to promote his own agenda (AGAIN) by wasting the tons of (our) money it took to print and mail this thing to his constituents during an election year doesn't it seem just a little bit shady?
Can you imagine what an uproar there would be if Lou Barletta was to do something similar and took the money out of the Hazleton city treasury to do it?

Barletta Releases Contribution Info, Kanjo Says NO

Today is July 15th, which is the deadline for filing financial reports with the FEC.
And as always, Lou Barletta is much more open and honest with the voters than his opponent Paul Kanjorski.
when asked by a local newspaper reporter how much money Kanjorski's campaign has raised this quarter, spokesman Ed Mitchell stated "You'll have to wait until it's posted on the FEC site, just like every other media outlet."
It would seem Mr. Mitchell has the same regard for the intelligence of the voters as Paul Kanjorski does.

Sorry Ed, but after the reports are made public, we will learn that a LOT of Kanjorski's campaign contributions came from the PAC's of investment houses and sub-prime mortage lenders.

Lou Barletta, on the other hand, had no problem with disclosing the fact that his COngressional campaign raised slightly over $515,000, most of which came from working-class folks contributing 10 or 20 dollars.

And that, Mr. Kanjorski, doesn't bode well for you come November.
Because it shows that, while you may have the big political action committes and the Wall Street boys on your side, Lou Barletta has someone much more important on his side.
The voters.

Ask Your Congressman

With a little less than 4 months to go before the voters of Pennsylvania’s 11th Congressional District choose between Paul Kanjorski or Lou Barletta, it’s time for a “call to arms” for the voters to get behind Lou Barletta. That post will be coming soon.

But before we get to that, I’d like to offer another suggestion, and that is for everyone who comes into contact with Kanjorski to demand the truth regarding the claims of himself and his campaign team.

I won’t rehash the whole CornerStone Technologies debacle, simply ask him what scientific qualifications his family members had that made them qualified to do the research the company was supposed to be engaged in.

Veterans should ask him how he could lie about ending the war in Iraq so he could ensure a Democrat takeover of Congress.

Question him as to why all of a sudden we can’t seem to turn on the TV or open a newspaper without him “endorsing” this or “proposing” that, when we all know these are simply publicity stunts.

Inquire as to why after continually claiming that Lou Barletta was a “one trick pony”, his campaign manager, Ed Mitchell, seems to be making excuses as to why the Congressman cannot commit to the debates that Barletta has challenged him to.

On the same subject, I for one would like Mr, Mitchell to explain his claim that Barletta’s debate challenge is nothing more than a cheap way to win publicity and to try and raise campaign funds.
I make no claims to being an expert on these matters, but I doubt that Lou Barletta will raise enough money from debates to overcome the fact that Barletta has 150k in his campaign chest as opposed to the almost 2 million dollars in funds that Kanjorksi has available.

I’d want an explanation of how someone could consider themselves a person of “middle-class” values when their salary is 163 thousand a year, and their personal net worth is over 6 million dollars.

I could go on with this for quite some time, but for now I only want the answer to one more thing:

For the 24 years that he has been in Congress, one of Kanjorski’s biggest claims is how he works hard to bring good, high paying jobs to Northeastern Pennsylvania.
I’d like to know, one, where the hell are they, two, why his own website cites as examples firms such as Techneglas which went out of business years ago, and last of all, after 24 YEARS of “fighting for us”, why is the average yearly income in each of the 5 counties you represent 3 to 7 thousand dollars a year below the average wages for the rest of Pennsylvania.
