Bill Smith, Editor, ARRA news Service: It used to be many people but now it is "most people" who are wondering where the President Obama's head and heart is these days. It doesn't appear to the majority of Americans that he values "down to earth" good old America - our country. Yesterday, we note another example of Obama's lack of focus on what really matters:
ABC News' Matthew Jaffe reported: In the wake of the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, President Obama today summoned a bipartisan group of over 20 senators to the White House to push for energy and climate change legislation.
But one thing the President did not want to talk about at the meeting was the BP disaster, a Republican source told ABC News. And that, the source said, led to a pointed exchange with GOP senator Lamar Alexander from Tennessee.
"The priority should be fixing the oil spill," Alexander told the President, according to the source. “That's what any meeting about energy should be about.”
But when Alexander tried to interject the BP leak into the meeting, the source said, the President told the senator, "That's just your talking point." Retorted Alexander, "No, it's my opinion." . . . [Full Story]
Arrogance abounds in the White House. American is suffering while President Obama "Fiddles Around" in the White House, on the golf course, or jetting around the globe trying to impress global dignitaries, and constantly campaigning. Wonder when he will ever visit the US Border with Mexico! We are under armed attack. People are being murdered and raped by invaders on American soil. I never thought I would find my self saying anything good about disgraced former president Jimmy Carter. But here goes: At least Carter showed some good old Southern grace while screwing over America.

Look what they're doing now to Hawaii elections official ...
The former Honolulu elections official who alleges Barack Obama was "definitely" not born in Hawaii and that no long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate even exists for the president in the Aloha State now says he's the victim of a vicious smear campaign, threatening his position as an instructor at Western Kentucky University.

As if Louisiana and the rest of the Gulf coast hadn't been hurt enough by a succession of disasters natural and man-made, the Obama administration has chosen to pile on by arbitrarily banning deep-water drilling for six months. At least.
What an exciting prospect: More unemployment, more idled capacity, more workers without work, more families on the dole, and, of course, less energy for an economy that, conventional Greenism to the contrary, must still depend on that remarkably efficient and convenient fuel called petroleum.
But it turns out there is still some law and even reason left in the chaotic aftermath of BP's disastrous explosion-cum-oil spill that's now going Gulf-wide. For here comes the judge. His name is the Hon. Martin Feldman and he's had the simple candor to call an arbitrary decision arbitrary.
Can you believe it -- a ruling by a federal court that takes reality into account? While recognizing that the Deepwater Horizon spill is "an unprecedented, sad, ugly and inhuman disaster," His Honor refused to condone piling another one on top of it via federal fiat.
Reason has long been the last resort of law. This judge has made it the first, much to the consternation of the administration's lawheads.
To quote the judge, "If some drilling equipment parts are flawed, is it rational to say all are? Are all airplanes a danger because one was? All oil tankers like the Exxon Valdez? All trains? All mines? That sort of thinking seems heavy-handed, and rather overbearing."
Rather overbearing? There's no rather about it. The administration has responded to the oil spill by drawing a line in the water at 500 feet. Regardless of all the wells operating safely above -- or below -- that level. That isn't reason, it's ... well, arbitrary.
With one edict it put a total of 33 exploratory oil wells out of commission. And threatens to shut down a good part of the whole petroleum industry.
Washington's diktat brings to mind the doomsters' reaction after the Hindenburg burst into flames that fateful night in 1937 with horrific, and well-publicized, results. It was a time when manned flight was still far from routine -- and some said the disaster just showed that man has no business flying. It was just too dangerous. Like drilling for oil below 500 feet.
Judge Feldman also called the administration's decision "capricious." Maybe not. It seems a calculated enough decision -- calculated to appeal to the public's panic, and the general demand that Washington not just sit there but Do Something, preferably something dramatic. Even if it's the wrong thing. Even if it adds to the oil spill's already catastrophic impact on the economy and people of the Gulf states.
It's a grandstand play that will allow the president to stack the commission that's supposed to investigate the feasibility of drilling for oil in the Gulf. Now he can fill it up with enviro-ideologues who never wanted to drill there in the first place. None are likely to recuse themselves from an appointment; even if they have prejudged the issue; this may be their big chance to throw a monkey wrench into the whole idea of drilling offshore.
Bobby Jindal, Louisiana's governor, has a better idea; he usually does when it comes to tackling this spreading oil spill. He's been ahead of Washington on this problem -- way ahead -- since Deepwater Horizon went down in a sea of spreading of spreading oil. He would conduct a top-to-bottom inspection of these oilrigs over the next 30 days, double-checking all the equipment, putting all personnel through a refresher course, and putting any additional precautions in place. Then assign a full-time inspector to each rig around the clock. All of which makes more sense than shutting down a whole industry because of one accident, however disastrous.
The disaster on Three-Mile Island in 1979 derailed the expansion of the country's nuclear industry for a generation, adding one disaster atop another. Are we now going to do the same to offshore drilling in the Gulf? And maybe beyond?
Judge Feldman's decision revives hope in the federal courts. Let's hope this rare sighting in the law -- of reason, perspective and proportion -- sets a new trend. But the tendency to substitute ideology for reason, and reaction for judgment, won't be easy to buck. The judge's decision will surely be appealed. There is a whole level of officialdom in this country that finds reason ... well, unreasonable.
Judge Feldman, in his zeal for reason, turns out to be quite a rhetorician. But in the end, what should matter most in this case is whether the Obama administration followed the law -- whether it respected its own rules and regulations or acted arbitrarily.
The administration pretty much answered that question when, without hearings or investigation or any further ado, it picked a nice round number -- 500 feet -- and simply imposed it, arbitrarily, on the oil industry. And on all those who depend on it

I have to say this, I have seen many calling for a movement that demands Barack Hussein Obama resign the office of the president. Do ANY of you actually think that POS will resign? Seriously? Barack Hussein Obama would declare martial law and lock this nation down tight just to make sure he can't be removed. I think we have more important duties to tend than an Obama *resignation* page on Facebook and the like. The immediate impeachment of Barack Hussein Obama would be one of those real efforts, one that if successful, could truly save this nation from falling further into the rabbit hole. It takes a simple majority vote in the House of Representatives to impeach the President. Do our elected Representatives have the guts to do so? Will they find the necessary guts if the GOP retakes the House in November? Or — will Obama do exactly what I, and many others suspect? Declare a National State of Emergency and then declare martial law to seize full power over this nation and it's citizens?

x Subject: Pictures from DC - It wasn't on the national news
x
Are you in any of these pictures? This was April 15th, 2010.
SOME OF THOSE SIGNS ARE REALLY CLASSIC
Tell me why this wasn't on the national news !!!
Awesome photos! Great turn out in Washington, DC on April 15th.
Just in case you missed it on the national news.... like I did! It wasn't on the national news!!!!!
Pictures from DC I think this gathering should be appreciated as the extremely important historical event that it is. This is the first great conservative anti-statist manifestation in American history. The conservative movement, which developed in the post-WWII, Cold War environment has now fully matured into the most significant political movement of the 21st century. I believe that this day could be referred to in the not too distant future as the day that changed America. This was the day the great silent conservative majority finally found its voice. Many of the attendees were quite meek and timid and were unsure of exactly what to expect, this being the first time in their lives they'd been involved in a protest movement. Their fears evaporated early in the day and I saw people reveling in the camaraderie, the joy and sheer civility that was exhibited at the entire event. Chants of Freedom, freedom, freedom, No more czars! No more czars! Carried through the air without the slightest hint of rancor or incivility which is the norm at the leftist rallies I have photographed over the years. The two photos above show a tiny fraction of the two million ABC estimates attended. I saw signs and heard lots of comments comparing this event to Woodstock. At the time this photo was taken, around 1:00 p.m., Pennsylvania Avenue was still jammed completely, and the mall was packed from the Capitol Building past the Washington Monument. See aerial photos here.
Protesters came from every state in the union. This man came from San Antonio, TX . He said that he was really sorry he hadn?t brought his family. He stated that being a black conservative he was afraid to expose his children to what he expected would be a lot of liberal abuse. He was thrilled with the tenor of the event and the fact that no liberals were present to harass him. He spoke about how incredibly intolerant the left is to black individuals who don't bow to the party line. These Ohioans took a day off their rodeo bullriding schedule. They said they'll be back at it tomorrow.. Mike Pence (R-Indiana) was one of the speakers who addressed the crowd: After years of fighting runaway government on this hill, you people look like the cavalry to me.. I believe we are on the verge of a great Americanawakening. San Diego radio host Mason Weaver said from the podium: I came here because I thought you might want to hear a black man speak without a teleprompter. This government is trying to make a nation of dependent people. Americans have always been independent people. This is not a Republican thing, it's not a Democrat thing. It's not a black thing or a white thing. It's an American thing. We the people are telling them. No more! We've hadenough! In the very center of the photo, above the Silence is Consent ? Can You Hear Us Now sign, you can see Pennsylvania Ave., which at this time is totally blocked with protesters who cannot move forward to the Capitol area. Sorry, full up. There were notable differences though, in the behavior of these attendees. Although the legend of Woodstock is that there was a friendly atmosphere of?camaraderie, the truth is that most people were there for the drugs, sex and rock and roll. Today in D.C. There was a true kinship amongst these people based on shared values and intellectual understanding of what America is and how its future is imperiled by big radical government.
No one was having sex in the Reflecting Pool let alone the mud, and I saw no one projectile vomiting on the steps of the Capitol. There were no warnings to avoid the bad acid which would send you on a trip to the hospital. Not just a different era, but a different level of civilized behavior and thought. Oh, and by the way, these people didn?t leave tons of garbage behind when they left. Actually they left no trash behind at all. Obama Lied, Capitalism Died. We are the mob!
Support Class Envy! Redistribute Wealth. Madam Speaker: Kiss Our Astroturf!
The Only Thing We Have to Fear is Obama Himself ? ? ? - ? ? ?Compassion is Voluntary, Not Compulsory! WALNUT ? Workers Against Lazy Non-Producers United Together ? the conservative answer to ACORN. Didn?t have to ask them if they were receiving any taxpayer money like radical left-wing ACORN. Different DNA!
Proud members of the Angry Mob and they're armed with their votes.
Your wallet the only place Democrats are willing to drill! Don?t share my wealth, share my work ethic! Right-wing extremist armed with the constitution. Who are the commie czars? Marxism ? the opiate of the asses Posters from the Peoples Cube are proliferating amongst protesters.. Stop Making Profit! Report all Capitalist Activities to flag@whitehouse.gov World?s #1 Crypto-Marxist. Endorsed by Fidel Castro: The most powerful progressive candidate to the U..S. presidency. GRANMA, Havana , May 26, 2008 Nancy Pelosi has accused patriotic tea-partyers of carrying swastikas implying that they are Nazi sympathizers. This event was wall to wall hammers and sickles and words like, socialist, communist? and Marxist, etc. It continues to fascinate me how long the Democrats will tolerate this without ever commenting on it. Either they like it, or there's something to it. Ever present at Tea Parties are Sons of Liberty reenactors. The couple on the left is from Tennessee and the young lady on the right is not but she joined in the photo. The clothing for the couple was hand stitched by the lady on the left. And boy do they love America. GOD BLESS AMERICA !
