OBAMA TO HOUSE: RAISE THE NATIONAL DEBT “OR ELSE”



The Omnipotent One told Congress, mainly the House, that he was not going to put up with any of their nonsense.  Using not-so-veiled threats, he said he would shut off social security and military checks unless the debt ceiling is raised and that the House Republicans would be to blame.

Is this a full-fledged dictatorship, or what? 

TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. If it is discovered that Iran is as close to having nuclear weapons capabilities as some circles would have us believe, what do you think Obama will do about it?  (Teddy ~ Tuolumne, CA)
A. Nothing.  I mean, he’s cutting the military to the bare bone; where is he going to find the troops or aircraft to do anything about it?  Don’t get me wrong; I happen to believe we’re spending too much money on defense as well, but slashing it in half is irresponsible and stupid. 

Q. What do you think Obama will do after the end of his second term?  (Rocky ~ Cheyenne, WY)
A. Ah ha!  You are assuming he will end his Presidency at the end of his second term!  I pose this question to you: if he is so disliked, how did he win the second term?  If a majority of Americans want him to stay on at the end of the second term, just who is going to stop him?  Sorry to ruin your lunch with that thought. 

Q. I read that we might have massive electrical outages and the loss of satellites, GPS, and cell phones this year due to solar flares.  How do they know this?  (Grace ~ Boulder City, NV)
A. They have “weather” experts check out the sun all of the time.  The sun has an activity cycle, much like the hurricane season here on Earth.  As it reaches a peak in activity, more solar flares and plasma will be hurled our way.  They wreak havoc with anything that can be damaged by a disruption in our magnetic field.  High radiation could harm astronauts floating outside the international space station; passengers and crew in some high-flying aircraft may be exposed to radiation risk as well.

TODAY’S QUOTE:
I would vote against raising the national debt ceiling. Again, this is about mortgaging the future of unborn generations of Americans. It's a form of taxation without representation. I don't think we can do that.” ~ Mike Lee
