Democrats in HOR Want to Tax the Rich 5.4% Surcharge for Healthcare Plan … Raise Taxes During a Recession

The Democrats answer to all problems is raise taxes! During a Recession?

A SURTAX for being rich??? What America do we live in where people are penalized for living the American dream and making something of themselves? A segment of people being singled out by the US Government and treated differently than the rest. Isn’t this discrimination? So we can’t discriminate of race, color or creed, but we can on economics. Imagine if someone said that all people with orange skin had to pay a surcharge?

How will Democrats pay for universal healthcare, otherwise known as Obamacare … Tax the rich of course. Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives will include a surtax on millionaires of 5.4% to pay for Obamacare.

When is enough, enough? If any of you think this is Ok because it does not affect you, what will you do when the bar is lowered and your income level is included in Obama’s “tax everyone agenda” to nationalize healthcare?

Exit Question: What sane and responsible politician raises taxes on anyone during a recession? Any politician that votes for a tax increase during a recession should be voted out of office, no matter what party.

Seven Suspects Now Arrested in Murders of Florida Couple Byrd and Melanie Billings

More arrests have been made bringing the total to 7 with more possibly to come.

There have now been seven suspects arrested in the double murders of  Byrd and Melanie Billings during the home invasion robbery that obviously went terribly wrong. The suspects, some dressed as ninjas,stole a safe and other items during the break in Thursday.  One of the seven taken into custody was a 16 year old boy.

The suspects ranged in age from 16 to 56, and several were day laborers who knew each other through a pressure washing business and an auto detailer they worked for. One, Donnie Ray Stallworth, was with the Air Force Special Operations Command with an aircraft maintenance squadron at Hurlburt Field near Fort Walton Beach. It wasn’t clear how he knew the others.

The seven suspects names are as follows from Sheriff David Morgan. Morgan told reporters Leonard Gonzalez, Jr. was the “organizer” of the crime. It’s just a matter of time, if they have not already, that the suspects will be looking to point the finger at others and cop a plea deal to save their skin in the double murder.

• Leonard Patrick Gonzalez Jr., 35
• Leonard Patrick Gonzalez Sr., 56
• Wayne Thomas Coldiron, 41
• Gary Lamont Sumner, 30
• Fredrick Lee Thornton, 19
• Donald Ray Stallworth, 28
• An unidentified juvenile, 16

Hmm … President Obama Gets Booed at MLB All Star Game in St Louis … And Throws Lame Pitch

“The One” booed in St Louis.

With no Teleprompter to bail Obama out, The One’s pitch is lame and misses the mark. Much like his policies have fallen short of American’s expectations.

I must admit I was a bit surprised to hear Barack Obama booed tonight at the MLB All Star game in St. Louis. The only individual booed louder was Ted Lilly from the hated rival Chicago Cubs. Booed and as The Gateway Pundit says, “And, he threw a sissy pitch”. We should have known after watching this throw from a White House picnic.

What was up with FOX Sports not showing the full pitch? Were they told by Barry’s handlers not to just in case he bounced the ball to home plate because it would have been spread like wildfire on the internet?

One thing is for certain, the Obama bloom is off the rose and people are starting to voice their displeasure with Obama’s policies and the economy.

Just a reminder to Obama … watch the video below and see how a real pitch is thrown by a President.

I’m so bored of watching him that I almost clicked over to the Food Network in disgust. But then I figured he’d probably be on there too, making casseroles with Rachael Ray or whatever, so I stayed put.

Rattner Off Dancing with the Czars: Car Czar Steven Rattner is leaving Obama as SEC Probes Intensify

Because Change is such a hard word to define …

Barack Obama car Czar Steven Rattner, leaving so soon? Steven Rattner will be no longer Dancing With the czars.

Steven Rattner will depart as head of the U.S. autos task force that oversaw unprecedented bankruptcies at General Motors Corp and Chrysler Group, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said on Monday.

Ron Bloom, a senior member of the White House/Treasury Department task force and a former Wall Street executive and labor restructuring expert, will take over day-to-day responsibilities for Rattner, who will soon return to private life in New York, officials said.

Rattner is a former journalist, investment banker and co-founder of private equity fund Quadrangle, which he left in February to join the Obama administration.

I am sure it has nothing to do with the New York AG probe of Steven Rattner pension ties heating up.

Obama’s Teleprompter Metaphor … Teleprompters came crashing down to the floor & crashing in Many Pieces

Omen? A sign of things to come? With Obama’s continued eroding approval rating and his continued want to bankrupt America with high taxes, universal healthcare and cap & trade, it’s not only Obama’s teleprompter that will be crashing into many pieces.

TOTUS … RIP

Talk about your metaphors … even TOTUS, the teleprompter of the United States, can’t take what is sprawled across it’s monitor these days and crashed to the ground much like Obama’s approval ratings have lately.

Midway through his speech on urban and metropolitan policy in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building this afternoon, one of his two small glass prompters came crashing down, hitting the wood floor and crashing in many pieces. It made quite a ruckus.

“Oh, goodness,” a startled President Obama said. “Sorry about that, guys.”

Gary Lamont Sumner, Fourth Arrest Made in Double Murder of Byrd and Melanie Billings … 3 Persons of Interest Still Sought by Police

Another Arrest …

A fourth person has been arrested in the murders of the Florida couple, Byrd and Melanie Billings. 30 year old Gary Lamont Sumner has been arrested and faces murder charges in the shooting deaths of the Byrd and Melanie Billings. Police are still looking for three persons of interest, two black males and one white male.

One of the persons of interest’s identity is currently known to investigators and an arrest is expected in the near future, the sheriff’s department said.

Fourth suspect Gary Lamont Sumner Arrested

Sumner was pulled over in a traffic stop in Okaloosa County Sunday and arrested after authorities found he matched a description put out by Escambia authorities.

Police believe six to eight people were involved in the homicides, which occurred in the couple’s home in Beulah, west of Pensacola, near the Alabama state line.

Cops Say Robbery Was ‘Prime Motive’ but Maybe Not Only One

Police believe that the murder of a Florida couple was a ‘military operation’ gone wrong in which the suspects tried but failed to disarm the couple’s elaborate security system – and say that more arrests are expected as early as today.

Talk about your Insults … Russians Snub Obama Hand Shake, Russians Say Rest This!

Change You Can Believe In … Where’s the handshake?

Who knew that “Reset” translated in Russian means “Obama, no hand shake for you.”

Here is some real interesting video footage that the MSM failed to provide Americans. Where’s the hand shake? Where’s the fist bump? Hell, not even a high five. Good relations, eh?

People, take a good look at the lack of respect that was given to your President. Now ask yourself, one, whether you can remember this happening to GWB (oh wait, there was the snub that wasn’t) and two, are we as Americans respected when we do not act like the World’s only super power? 

Hat Tip: The Gateway Pundit. As Hoff’s states, “Funny… Our state-run media didn’t report on this”?

More Poll Trending: CBS News Poll Has Obama Down 6 Points Since June 2009 … 50% not to Far Off

DOWN, DOWN, DOWN …

No matter what poll you look at, Obama’s approval rating is going down fast. A recent CBS News Poll shows that President Barack Obama’s approval rating has gone down 6 points in the past month. Is it any wonder that “The One’s” approval ratings are sinking? With unemployment reaching nearly 10% nationally and the growing skepticism of how Obama is handling the economy. When a pro-Obama poll has him sliding … looks for Obama’s approval ratings to soon be below 50%.

The people do not want to hear excuses that Obama inherited a bad economy. It was already known during the election that the economy needed fixing. Who knew that Obama and his policies would make it worse. Well many did actually. Those that sat on the fence and wanted change probably would like a Mulligan and change their vote if provided the opportunity.

President Obama’s approval rating has fallen six points in the past month, a new CBS News poll finds, amid growing skepticism about his handling of the economy and questions about the impact of the stimulus package.

The president’s current approval rating, which is 57 percent, is still relatively high. But it has fallen 11 points from its peak of 68 percent in April, and has also dropped since last month’s mark of 63 percent. His disapproval rating, meanwhile, has risen from 23 percent in April to 32 percent today.
