West's Weekly Wrap-Up

West's Weekly Wrap-Up
I have never previously held elected office and four years ago was returning from a two-and a- half year assignment as a civilian-military advisor to the Afghan Army. I do not see myself as a “politician.” I seek to be a political leader and thus hope to be an American Statesman.
Therefore, I will not be supporting, if I get a straight up and down vote, any of these manipulative deceptive political gimmicks - such as extension of payroll taxes and unemployment benefits.
I will be supporting stabilizing or lowering tax rates in America, and prefer to flatten them, eliminate loopholes, and reduce subsidies and deductions.

No more raising of the debt ceiling! We have shown the American people enough ineptness, incompetence, failure, and lack of courage and conviction to last a lifetime. Our system of governance is broken and we need major bold structural reforms.

Predictably enough, I am quite sure the Democrat party, many in the media, and political opponents will take my words, and eventual votes, and use them against me- feel free. I am not going to manipulate, deceive, or mislead the American people for “political gain” such as the current resident of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave is comfortable doing.

If the constituents of this Congressional District would rather have a follower than a principled leader to represent them… well, the quote of Plato comes to mind, “those who refuse to participate in politics shall be governed by their inferiors.” However, it is not just about participating; it is about being educated and informed on the issues.

The challenge to our constituents, as well as all Americas, is how long will you be treated as mushrooms, kept in the dark and fed crap? There is an incredible choice Americans must make next November 2012.

Shall America continue as a Constitutional Republic led by men and women of courage, conviction, and character… or shall America become a bureaucratic nanny-state ruled by manipulative deceivers seeking their own political gain?

Is America truly that shining City on the Hill, or will that light be forever extinguished? Choose wisely, your children and grandchildren are watching… as well as our enemies abroad.

Steadfast and Loyal,

Portrait of an American Statesman.

DEBKAfile, Political Analysis, Espionage, Terrorism, Security

The Syrian crisis aassumed a big power dimension this week with the build-up of rival United States and Russia naval air carrier armadas in Syrian waters, debkafile's military sources report.

The USS George H.W. Bush arrived Wednesday, Nov. 23, in the wake of the three Russian warships anchored earlier opposite Tartus which established a command post in the Syrian port. They will be augmented by Russia's only air carrier the Admiral Kuznetsov, which is due in mid-week.

By deploying 70 ship-borne fighter-bombers plus three heavy guided missile cruisers and five guided missile destroyers opposite Syria, Washington has laid down military support for any intervention the Arab League in conjunction with Turkey may decide on.

Bashar Assad can see for himself that Washington has hoisted a nuclear aerial umbrella to protect its allies, Israel, Turkey, and Jordan, against the retaliation his armed forces high command pledged Friday for the deaths of six Syrian air force elite pilots in an ambush Thursday.

This isn't a sex scandal so it might not be covered by Regime Media.

SHOCK – Brain surgeon confirms ObamaCare rations care, has death panels! | The Right Scoop
Tonight, a brain surgeon called into Mark Levin’s radio show and said that he had just recently visited Washington DC to review Obama’s new health care plan for advanced neurosurgical care for patients over 70 years old, issued by HHS. The plan, that included “ethics panels”, stated that if your were over 70 years old and on government supported healthcare and you visited an emergency room, you get “comfort care”:
Are you nearly 70 too?

The Secrets of Soros, Obama, Occupiers and the MSM (Part 1) - Chuck Norris - Townhall Conservative

Part 2

Part 3
To progressives, the masses don't need to understand the principles, just stand up for them. In fact, it's actually better that they remain ignorant. Saul Alinsky stated it this way: "Here our concern is [only] with the tactic of taking; how the Have-Nots can take power away from the Haves."
The truth is that the only way out of this slippery slope is to help educate the masses about the uniqueness of our republic and push back on the tides of progressivism, socialism and communism. That is also why I expanded the paperback version of my New York Times bestseller, "Black Belt Patriotism," which gives America's founders' solutions for our modern problems.

EconomicPolicyJournal.com: Soros Funding Paul Volcker to Develop Plans for Handling a US Financial Crisis

EconomicPolicyJournal.com: Soros Funding Paul Volcker to Develop Plans for Handling a US Financial Crisis
Both Volcker and Ravitch are expecting serious financial problems for state governments. Reports WSJ:
Now, they are working together as they focus on a looming crisis at once local and global in scope: the financial distress of U.S. states...

Ravitch worries Congress will try to balance the federal budget with billions of dollars in state aid cuts.

A Democrat who was named lieutenant governor in 2009, and served until the end of 2010, Mr. Ravitch also predicts that municipal bond holders will have to share with taxpayers and public workers the pain in correcting the problems. "What we are seeing in Europe is that everyone has to throw something into the pot to avoid catastrophe," Mr. Ravitch recently told a group of municipal analysts.
So they are putting together a task force to prepare for the crisis. WSJ again:
They hope their task force, which examines five states, California, Illinois, New York, Virginia and Texas, will illuminate issues the public doesn't fully grasp...
You might want to watch this action!

George Soros aims a ‘bazooka’ at Europe’s crisis - The Globe and Mail

George Soros aims a ‘bazooka’ at Europe’s crisis - The Globe and Mail

Europe must first acknowledge what its bazooka is too small to achieve: rescue Europe’s faltering members directly, he said. The bailout fund “was designed as a way of providing guarantees on government bonds, but for that purpose it is clearly inadequate. It cannot be stretched to cover Italy and Spain.”

But he thinks the fund is big enough to save Europe in a different way – to guarantee the banking system. “That would create a lender of last resort, which is currently lacking.” The bailout fund could take the solvency risk, which is beyond the legal right of the European Central Bank. Thus shored up, the banks would be able to buy the high-yielding government debt of the European countries that are currently struggling to find lenders.

He said his plan would make Italy’s debt “sustainable, because the ECB has any amount of money for the purpose of providing liquidity. At the same time, it would not violate the law against the ECB directly financing the governments.”

The plan is essentially a way to get around Europe’s fundamental economic flaw – it has a single currency, but no lender of last resort: “It’s a trick, but a trick that would work.”

Anyone agree with Soros?

David Axelrod's pattern of sexual misbehavior

David Axelrod's pattern of sexual misbehavior

Herman Cain has spent his life living and working all over the country – Indiana, Georgia, Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas, Washington, D.C. – but never in Chicago.

So it's curious that all the sexual harassment allegations against Cain emanate from Chicago: home of the Daley machine and Obama consigliere David Axelrod.

How Axelrod eliminates competition for Obama.

Sheriff Joe threatened for probing eligibility

Sheriff Joe threatened for probing eligibility

Arpaio said that if the media's strategy is to minimize the impact of his investigation by ignoring it, it is not likely to work.

"If the mainstream media thinks our investigation will go away if it remains unreported, they're wrong. The investigation is proceeding, and I fully anticipate we will publish a report early next year."

He said his law enforcement investigation is being professionally conducted and is wide-ranging in scope. It includes an investigation into whether or not Barack Obama is using a fraudulent Social Security number, as WND has previously reported, as well as whether the birth certificate issued by the White House on April 27 is a forgery.

Arpaio said he was also surprised by how vile the threats he has gotten from Obama supporters turn out to be.

"I've got the drug cartels from Mexico sending me death threats," he said, "and now I have the Obama supporters sending me death threats. I'm not sure which are worse."

Arpaio told WND he turns over all threats to his office for investigation.

Barack Obama's 32 Month Report Card

by Rich Carroll

Copy this article. You will need researched material to mail your liberal friends and/or relatives.

Mr. Hope and Change wants to create a nation humbled; humiliated, casting-aside capitalism
and individual freedoms for one where “we the people” are government controlled.
This would be a system that genuflects mediocrity, steals personal aspiration and opportunity,
and punishes those who strive to succeed.

A gallon of regular gasoline the day Obama was inaugurated was $1.79 on average in the
U.S. Today that price is $3.59, a 100.6% increase. The number of food stamp recipients
has risen since Obama took office from 31,983,716 to 43,200,878, a 35.1% jump. Long
term unemployment soared 146.2% during the same 32 month period from 2,600,000 to
6,400,000. Staggering “hope and change” isn't it?

American citizens living in poverty have risen 9.5% from 39,800,000 to 43,600,000, and
the number of unemployed has jumped almost 25% from 11,616,000 to 14,485,000 as of
August 31, 2011. The number of unemployed blacks has risen from 12.6% at the end of
George Bush's term to 15.8% today, a 25.4% increase, and finally, our national debt is
up 34.4% from 10.627 trillion to 14,278 trillion *

Keep these figures in mind as we recount the number of “firsts” for this presidency:

First President to refuse to show a valid birth certificate.
First President to apply for college aid as a foreign student, then deny he was a foreigner.
First President to have a social security number from a state he has never lived in.
First President to preside over a cut to the credit rating of the United States .
First President to violate the War Powers Act.
First President to be held in contempt of court for illegally obstructing oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico .
First President to defy a Federal Judges court order to cease implementing the Health Care Reform Law.
First President to require all Americans to purchase a product from a third party.
First President to spend a trillion dollars on shovel-ready jobs and later admit there was no such thing as     shovel-ready jobs.
First President to abrogate bankruptcy law to turn over control of companies to his union supporters.
First President to by-pass Congress and implement the Dream Act through executive fiat.
First President to order a secret amnesty program that stopped the deportation of illegal immigrants     across the U.S. , including those with criminal convictions.
First President to demand a company hand-over $20 billion to one of his political appointees.
First President to terminate Americas ability to put a man in space.
First President to encourage racial discrimination and intimidation at polling places.
First President to have a law signed by an auto-pen without being present.
First President to arbitrarily declare an existing law unconstitutional and refuse to enforce it.
First President to threaten insurance companies if they publicly speak-out on the reasons for their rate increases.
First President to tell a major manufacturing company in which state they are allowed to locate a factory.
First President to file lawsuits against the states he swore an oath to protect (Az, WI, OH, IN)
First President to withdraw an existing coal permit that had been properly issued years ago.
First President to fire an inspector general of Ameri-corps for catching one of his friends in a corruption case.
First President to appoint 45 Czars to replace elected officials in his office.
First President to golf 73 separate times in his first two and a half years in office.
First President to hide his medical, educational and travel records.
First President to win a Nobel Peace Prize for doing NOTHING to earn it.
First President to coddle American enemies while alienating Americas allies.
First President to publicly bow to Americas enemies while refusing to salute the U.S. Flag.
First President to go on multiple global apology tours.
First President to go on 17 lavish vacations, including date nights and Wednesday evening
    White House parties for his friends, paid for by the taxpayer.
First President to refuse to wear the U.S. Flag lapel pin.
First President to have 22 personal servants (taxpayer funded) for his wife.
First President to keep a dog trainer on retainer for $102,000.00 a year at taxpayer expense.
First President to repeat “the Holy Qur'an tells us,” and openly admit “the early morning call of the Azan (Islamic call to worship) is the most beautiful sound on earth.”

Remember that 32 months of Obama White House we the people have accumulated national debt at a rate more than 27 times as fast as during the rest of our nation's entire history, as the Obama's plan their next extravagant vacation to the Indonesian Island nation of Bali .

Hope and change anyone?

This usually happens when something of significant consequences is posted relative to Obama being an illegal occupant in the White House-- New activity regarding "his" Social Security Number, Forged Birth Certificate, or New Court ruling against Obama (this doesn't happen often in Holder Injustice Department)

Maybe just new internet censoring rules.

Give them time, if we still have a Constitution then maybe it will be back on line.

MF Global : 99 Problems And Auditor PwC Warned About None - Forbes

Best account I've found.

Occupy Wall Street (OWS) - Discover the Networks

Occupy Wall Street (OWS) - Discover the Networks
OWS organizers advocate the imposition of a "Robin Hood Tax" (i.e., taking from the "rich" and giving to the "poor") on most goods and services worldwide, with the aim of using its generated revenues to fund social-welfare programs. Such a tax was originally the brainchild of non-governmental organizations based mostly in the United Kingdom. A prominent supporter of the Robin Hood Tax is the economist Jeffrey Sachs, a key member of the George Soros-funded Institute for New Economic Thinking.
Additional OWS demands include the following: a “guaranteed living wage income regardless of employment”; a $20-per-hour minimum wage; an end to “the fossil fuel economy”; “open borders” so “anyone can travel anywhere to work and live”; $1 trillion in public expenditures for infrastructure; another $1 trillion for “ecological restoration”; “free college education” for all; the forgiveness of “all debt on the entire planet, period”; and the abolition of credit agencies.

Describing itself as a "leaderless resistance movement with people of many colors, genders and political persuasions," OWS says: "The one thing we all have in common is that We Are The 99% that will no longer tolerate the greed and corruption of the 1%. We are using the revolutionary Arab Spring tactic to achieve our ends and encourage the use of nonviolence to maximize the safety of all participants."

OWS was a key organizer of the September 17, 2011 “Day of Rage” protest targeting Wall Street, the hub of New York City's financial district. According to the group, the purpose of that event was to express “opposition to the principle that has come to dominate not only our economic lives but our entire lives: profit over and above all else.” Other noteworthy organizers of the September 17 rally, which drew approximately 1,000 participants, included USDayOfRage, NYC General Assembly, Take The Square, Anonymous, and the AdBusters Media Foundation. Indeed, Adbusters editor Kalle Lasn was the major player in getting OWS established and launched.
Another central figure in OWS from its inception was Lisa Fithian, an anarchist describing herself as a career “community organizer” who specializes in “direct action” protests, and who has close ties to labor unions.

According to journalist Aaron Klein, the September 17 protests apparently represented “the culmination” of a campaign by Wade Rathke, founder of ACORN and president of an SEIU local in New Orleans, who in March 2011 had issued a call for “days of rage in ten cities around JP Morgan Chase” -- part of his so-called "anti-banking jihad." Rathke's efforts were supported by Stephen Lerner, an SEIU board member and radical-left organizer who candidly aims to “destabilize the folks that are in power and start to rebuild a movement”; “bring down the stock market” through a campaign of disruption; “bring down [the] bonuses” of executives in the financial sector; and “interfere with their ability to ... be rich.”
Who do you know that has the most experience as a "Community Organizer?" Of course, The Community Organizer in Chief. It's obvious he's not good at anything else.

To meet what they thought was a clear and present danger of having one of the most powerful and dangerous Mexican drug cartels conducting commando campaign operations on US soil, the Obama Administration instead opted to try their customary "hope and change" approach.

So they called in the Bureau of Land Management of the US Department of the Interior.

The Bureau produced 15 signs and erected them along a 60-mile stretch of Interstate 8 in the Vekol Valley area.

The billboard-size signs informed travelers that they were entering an "active drug-and human-smuggling area."

The signs alerted drivers and passengers that they might encounter "armed criminals" and "smuggling vehicles traveling at high rates of speed."

Really, that's the action the Obama Administration took!
Again, which side are they on? They can't be that stupid.

Once you know which side Hussein Obama is on, the answer is obvious.

The Enemy Is Inside The Wire | CNSnews.com

In other words, Muslim Brotherhood-associated individuals are being afforded the opportunity to veto the use of trainers who might actually understand the nature of the danger its operatives and organizations pose to our country. And those who are allowed to train are not permitted to focus their students on the actual threat emanating from a subset of the Muslim community. Rather, they must promote the notion that there are really no indicators in belief or nationality that can help the authorities apply limited security resources in a sensibly prioritized manner.

Some try to excuse this behavior as nothing more than being “sensitive,” “tolerant” or “politically correct.” The danger is that shariah-adherent Muslims regard such conduct as submissive – and, according to their doctrine, they are obliged to redouble their efforts to, as the Koran puts it, make us “feel subdued.” That means more violence, not less.

That prospect becomes all the greater when one adds into the mix the presence of government officials who are themselves tied to the Muslim Brotherhood and/or its shariah doctrine – including in senior positions in the White House, the State Department and the Department of Homeland Security. Such individuals are products of, and greatly facilitate, the Brothers’ influence operations and contribute greatly to our failure to date to recognize, let alone counteract, them.

More signs of the Obama Times.

Say again, which side is Hussein Obama on?

The disclosure Tuesday, Nov. 1, by the International Atomic Energy Agency - that a spinning factor built in the northeastern Syrian town of Hasaka in 2003 was in fact designed for developing nuclear weapons from enriched uranium - had a purpose: It was intended to crowd Bashar Assad into talking to the leaders of the revolt against him instead of slaughtering them. debkafile's intelligence sources report that Syria procured the enriched uranium and equipment for the plant from Iraq when its ruler Saddam Hussein in early March 2003 when he decided to dispose of the bulk of his nuclear plant and weapons of mass destruction by spiriting them out to Syria, then his closest ally.
Who said Saddam Hussein didn't have weapons of mass destruction?

Editorial: Obama’s Pushing The Envelope - Galganov.com
WHAT OBAMA’S DONE TO AMERICA GOES BEYOND IMAGINATION:

Every President has used EXECUTIVE PRIVILEGE to get “some” things done that he couldn’t otherwise get done without the cooperation of Congress. But, with Obama, as he is announcing wherever he can, he has made EXECUTIVE PRIVILEGE Official White House Policy.

SO WHY BOTHER TO ELECT MEMBERS TO THE HOUSE AND SENATE?

Read these words carefully . . . Obama is poison to America, to Israel, and to the Free World as a whole. He is a narcissist and demagogue of the worst kind, being no different from the likes of Chavez, Castro, and Ahmadinejad.

The only thing that is keeping Obama from ruling by DICTATORIAL decree is that he hasn’t yet pushed the envelope as far as he could. But, as long as there is no REAL opposition to stop him . . . as there is NOT – Obama will push as far as he can.

And one day, sooner rather than later, when the MAKERS finally reach their boiling point, America will explode in a social revolution that will tear the country apart unlike anything since the Civil War.

And that will be the day when America becomes a Balkanized nation - Or a nation that will be born again.
