Unreported the last week or so, over $500 billion in tax hikes and budget cuts are scheduled
to hit the nation in January due to a forced budget deal made last year. Now, the Congressional Budget Office is
warning of a steep and deep recession unless legislation is passed immediately
to avert the crisis. The gloomy forecast
is due in part to a decision by Congress to steepen the fiscal cliff by
extending a temporary payroll tax break and emergency unemployment benefits,
which are now also set to expire in January. Finally, analysts have concluded
that the underlying economy is much weaker than previously predicted.
COMMENTS:
And just what do you think the odds are of either party
being willing to deal with this issue before the November elections? And after the elections, in a lame duck
session, what are the odds that they will once again kick our disastrous
financial situation down the road again?
Let’s not wait to find out; let’s just clean houses in November and get
rid of every damned one of them, Democrat and Republican alike. Let’s start with a fresh, untainted Congress in January.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. Obama made a whole ton of promises the other night. If he had the ability to get these things
done in his first term, why didn’t he?
And, why didn’t he make an impassioned plea to keep his fellow Democrats
in Congress? (Phil ~ Bremerton, WA)
A. Because he doesn’t care about his fellow Democrats; if
he’s reelected, he’ll be the High Potentate by mandate and Congress won’t be
necessary. As for the promises, you
already know the answer. I’m sorry, but
he is the worst President ever elected in this country, and probably most
others. Most others at least believe in God.
Q. After the Democrats decided to remove the push for
Jerusalem as being the bona fide capital of Israel, how do we even stand a
chance of successfully supporting them against Iran? (Abe ~ Las Vegas, NV)
A. Our relations with Israel are already in the toilet,
thanks to Obama. And, House Intelligence
Committee Chairman Mike Rogers says that Netanyahu is at his “wit’s end” over
Obama’s refusal to define a point at which the U.S. might take action against
Iran. "Right now the Israelis don't
believe that this administration is serious when they say all options are on
the table, and more importantly neither do the Iranians." The situation becomes more ominous everyday as
more news comes that U.S. intelligence about the actual Iranian progress on
nukes is either flawed or being misrepresented to the world. Frankly, if we end up in World War III due to
Obama’s bone-headed refusal to deal with this issue, I’ll be madder than
hell.
Q. Is Obama going to try and silence Matt Bissonnette, who wrote the book about the real inside story on the Osama assassination? (The Colonel ~ San Antonio, TX)
A. The Pentagon claims that Bissonnette signed a secrecy
agreement, although it has yet to be released.
Obama is absolutely livid because it discloses information about him and
Biden that is not exactly flattering.
Obama, well-known for White House leaks of classified information,
contends that the book contains… classified information.

not now morphed into a referendum on God doesn’t appreciate American roots.” ~
