Why Barack Obama represents better than the pope does
This comes to you via Newsweek and here’s quote: It’s fitting that Obama’s visit comes just days after the publication of “Charity in Truth,” a Vatican encyclical that declares unions, regulation of capitalism’s excesses, and environmentalism to be ethical imperatives. The document gives moral credence to Obama’s message and to progressive politics writ large.
So there you have it, according to Newsweek the Pope is a Socialist/Progressive née Communist. I don’t know if this is true or not and frankly I don’t care. The way I see it is this. All religions want to have their cake and eat it too. They want the ‘special benefits’ they enjoy and they want to pontificate on social issues at the same time. Personally I don’t believe that politics and religion should be mixed. Yeah I know religion and politics have always been intertwined, but IMO that’s a major problem not a blessing.
Specter: Sestak a ‘flagrant hypocrite’
What ya know another ‘pot’ calling a ‘kettle’ black.
Budget Nightmare: 10 Most Broke States
My father was fond of saying. “These people have Champagne tastes and don’t even have beer incomes.” He was right. Local, state, and federal governments have spent like sailors on a spree for years. They all had to have new parks, bike trails, jogging trails, raise wages for government employees, more services for those who won’t and never have worked, and killed off jobs because those jobs weren’t ‘politically correct’. And now the chickens have come home to roost. You give me any government budget and I can cut out millions in ‘pork’. And the place to start is at the top with all the over paid ‘Administrations’ who do nothing, but shuffle some paper and draw huge salaries while doing so.
And you expected it would not be like this? The current administration in D.C. has the dubious distinction of being the most corrupt liars in US history. The worst part of this is we all know it and that includes MSM, but MSM goes skipping along praising what clearly does not merit praise.

MoveOn.org gets their just deserts in North Carolina.
Here’s What ‘Faux POTUS’ Had On His Mind At The G-8 Summit. ABCNEWS: NO HE DIDN’T …
The only saving grace here is he wasn’t checking out guy booty. ABC was of course quick with an -off-the-wall explanation. I guess its great having MSM defend you so your own ‘spin-doctors’ can spin important stuff.

Iran Protest
Strange how that middle finger has a universal meaning seeing as how it all started with English Bowmen. (I know how that protester feels. I fell the same way about ‘Faux POTUS’ and his ‘merry band of thugs’.
German zoo renames monkey, admits “Obama” insensitive
Quote: A German zoo changed the name of one of its monkeys Friday from! ‘Obama’ to ‘Okeke’ after a black group warned the original name implied a racial slur.
Yeah ya gotta be careful PETA would be all over this for insulting monkeys.
Max Baucus on how to pay for health care
Higher taxes and fees for less. How more ‘government’ can you get. Government ‘is never’ the answer, as anything government does always turns into a debacle of Biblical proportions.
