Obama in Laos Insults U.S. Again: ‘Stressed’ Americans Turn To Racism
by Shifra on September 8, 2016Obama really can’t help himself. The minute he lands on foreign soil, he feels the need to trash us to the world. Via Breitbart. President Barack Obama tells a group of young Asians that when Americans are economically stressed, they turn to racism to cope with their struggles. After Obama highlighted America’s rich heritage of multiculturalism, he pointed to the country’s racist tendencies as a result. “That especially becomes a problem when the economy is not doing well, and so people feel stressed,” he said. “Typically, when people feel stressed, they turn on others who don’t look like them.” He blamed the faltering economy for causing the problems in America’s society. “When suddenly things are harder, people start saying, ‘Ah,...

by Shifra on July 11, 2016Not bad, for a “dead broke” couple…of grifters. Via NY Post. New public records show former President Bill Clinton made unusual and outrageous demands when he became a six-figure speaker after leaving the White House — a tradition he passed along to wife Hillary. While speaking in California in 2002, the former president demanded to be flown by private jet from San Francisco to his speaking venue just 70 miles away at the University of California Davis Mondavi Center, according to documents obtained by the Los Angeles Times. Bubba also charged a $1,400 hotel phone bill and $700 dinner for two to event organizers…. Clinton in 2002 declined the going rate of $60,000 a speech for former world leaders, including...

White House Silent On Where the Zika Money Went
by Tammy on June 5, 2016Really, let’s just admit it: Our government is being run by grifters. Via Washington Examiner. The White House doesn’t seem to know how much money it has on hand to battle the growing threat of the mosquito-transmitted Zika virus, even as it continues to demand $1.9 billion in new spending. The Obama administration in April shifted about $590 million from a fund aimed at controlling the Ebola virus, to combat the new Zika threat. But administration officials have been unable to answer how much of that money is left. The White House, the Centers for Disease Control and the Office of Management and Budget were all unable to provide an exact number or even an estimate, despite repeated requests. Not...

Outrageous. Obama Seeks Hike In Post-Presidency Payments
by Tammy on March 18, 2016More?! So, he feels he and all the other multi-millionaire ex-president deserve as raise. After he destroyed the health care system, lost 6m Americans their doctors and hospitals, forced you into two part-time jobs to pay the rent, set the world on fire, set the stage for Christian genocide in the Middle East, watched while it happened, and made the US a laughing stock around the world. So he wants a raise. For himself and all the other filthy rich ex-presidents. The pension/funding they receive should be eliminated entirely. They should be required to use the Secret Service and reimburse the American people for the cost. Disgusting. Via Free Beacon. President Obama sought to increase the amount of money available...
