Hollywood Leftist Ben Affleck Says He Will Not Run for US Senate Seat in Massachusetts

The great national wait is over whether Hollywood Leftist actor Ben Affleck says he will not be running for the US Senate seat of Massachusetts. The seat will presumably be up for special election once Sen. John Kerry is approved by the Senate to be the next US Secretary of State. What a load off every one’s mind that Affleck will not be running. We can all sleep now. Of course he is not running for office, its easier to complain about things and be a pseudo political activist on MSNBC rather than actually affect change. Also, there is that little issue about the pay cut.

Ben Affleck is taking his name off the list of possible candidates for U.S. Sen. John Kerry’s seat, which would be open if the Democratic senator from Massachusetts is confirmed as secretary of state.

Affleck says in a Monday posting on his Facebook page that while he loves the political process, he will not be running for public office.

It is rather interesting and telling when the big mouth Left is presented with an opportunity to put there money career where their mouth is, they decline.

Sick Liberal Media Just Can’t Stop Playing the Race Card … “If Newtown, CT Mass Shooter Was Not White, Public Debate Would Be ‘Much Uglier”

The liberal media just cannot help themselves …

What is wrong with liberals, are they just racists at heart? How else can you explain their rational as to why they always have race on the brain and have the race card ready to play for every situation?

The foolish libs were on display at BSNBC discussion the Newtown, CT shooting and criminal profiling of  of those that would commit such mass murder crimes. David Sirota, a columnist for the left-wing Salon.com stated white people are not allowed to be profiled and had the shooter not been white, the public debate would have been much uglier. Really? What kind of ignoramus are you? Oh wait, that’s right, it was MSNBC. A lot you know about crime.  First of all, it is white men that are profiled as serial killers.  Second, mass murderers are also profiled as white men. To answer your questions as to how this would have been handled if the gun man’s name was Abdul, yes it would have been handled differently as it would have been a terror act.

From Mediaite:

David Sirota, a columnist for Salon.com, appeared on Up with Chris Hayes on Sunday for a discussion about the possible policy recommendations that could be adopted in the wake of the mass shooting at a Connecticut elementary school which may prevent future shootings. When the question of profiling came up, Sirota insisted that the perpetrators of these kinds of crimes are most often white men – the only group in America that is “not allowed to be profiled.” Sirota said, if the shooter was any race other than white, the debate over policy measures to prevent these types of events in the future would have been “uglier.”

Sadly the race baiting liberals at MSNBC do not care about helping protect children, they care about dividing America. These moonbats are all for banning guns as to being the answer to stop such heinous violence. Conversely, they do not believe the mentally ill should be profiled, even though all of the past mass murderers,  Jared Lee Loughner, the Tucson Massacre shooter, Oregen Mall shooter Jacob Roberts, VA Tech shooter  Cho Seung Hui, Dark Knight Movie Massacre Shooter James Holmes  and Sandy Hook Elementary School shooter Adam Lanza. all had one thing in common … they were mentally imbalanced.

As stated at Legal Insurrection, of all the things that the heinous and terrible murders were in Newtown, CT, racism was not one of them. Sorry, but when you have the death of 20 children, ages 6 and 7, it would matter little what the race was of the shooter to change the public debate. It does not get any worse than the death of 20 precious angels. However, mental illness was at the root cause of this terrible crime, however, the Left just scoffs as such a notion.

I told you that mental illness would not be addressed seriously, even though mental illness with warning signs of danger is a pattern in these mass murders.  I had not anticipated that the race card would be the factor that got in the way.

Harry Belafonte Gives Advice to Barack Obama: Jail the Opposition “Like a Third World Dictator”

More enlightenment from the Marxist LEFT … 

During an interview with his fellow leftist moonbat Al Sharpton, Harry Belafonte provided some advice for President Barack Obama when it comes to Americans who dare oppose or disagree with Obama and the unsustainable out of control spending and . Belafonte said, the only thing for Barack Obama to “Work like a Third World dictator and just put all these guys in jail.”

“WORK LIKE A DICTATOR”

So let’s understand this, when a President wins reelection they get to do everything they want and we are supposed to cast away the US Constitution? I know that Obama tries to do this, but that is a liberal pipe dream.

Yup Harry, that’s exactly what a President in a country with a Representative Democracy should do. Is this what you really want? We will remember that when the GOP is back in power and we round your crazy self up and shop you off on a banana boat. But then again, its not like you do not have a lot of experience with your pal dictators. Belefonte has a history of acting like a loon. As we are reminded by the Gateway Pundit, it was Belefonte who called GWB “the greatest terrorist in the world” while praising Marxist tyrant Hugo Chavez.

Question for Harry … Did you feel the same way when George W. Bush was elected by a wider margin or did you oppose W?

Suddenly Democrats Want to Delay ‘Job-Killing’ Obamacare Tax on Medical Devices

Now they are concerned. Suddenly 18 Democrat Senators want to delay the Obamacare “job-killing” tax on medical devices. 

Previously, then Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said that we have to pass the bill [Obamacare] in order to find out what is in it. Really? Long after the Obamacare bill was passed politicians still refused to say what was in it, even though many on the Right stated that there were numerous taxes that would be bad for the economy. Suddenly, following the 2012 election Democrats have had an epiphany, have become enlightened and now are urging a delay in some of the taxes from the Affordable Care Act.

After all this time, after all their defense of Obamacare, suddenly sixteen present and two Senate-elect Democrat US Senators are sending Democrat Senate Majority leader Harry Reid a letter calling for a delay in the “job-killing” tax.  Even though some of the Senators on this list who have medical device companies in their states, they still voted for Obamacare. It is only now on the verge of the tax being implemented, January 1, 2013, it has become an issue.

Sixteen Democratic senators who voted for the Affordable Care Act are asking that one of its fundraising mechanisms, a 2.3 percent tax on medical devices scheduled to take effect January 1, be delayed. Echoing arguments made by Republicans against Obamacare, the Democratic senators say the levy will cost jobs — in a statement Monday, Sen. Al Franken called it a “job-killing tax” — and also impair American competitiveness in the medical device field.

The senators, who made the request in a letter to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, are Franken, Richard Durbin, Charles Schumer, Patty Murray, John Kerry, Kirsten Gillibrand, Amy Klobuchar, Joseph Lieberman, Ben Nelson, Robert Casey, Debbie Stabenow, Barbara Mikulski, Kay Hagan, Herb Kohl, Jeanne Shaheen, and Richard Blumenthal. All voted for Obamacare.

Two other Democrats, senators-elect Joe Donnelly and Elizabeth Warren, also signed the letter. Donnelly voted for Obamacare as a member of the House. Warren was not in Congress at the time.

Suddenly after the election and all the lies that have been spewed about Obamacare, Democrats now have developed a conscience that Granny’s hip is going to cost more. However, in order to delay or get rid of this tax, Democrats are going to have to come up with $29 billion. That is the amount that is supposed to come in from this medical device tax. As stated at Powerline, Democrats are now admitting that Obamacare is a jobs killer. Where were they for the past four years? Its not just this tax that is a jobs-killer, all of Obamacare is one.

Of course the medical device tax will cost jobs, as will any number of other taxes that support Obamacare. These Democrats are latecomers to the party, and they would have more credibility if they had not voted for the bill in the first place. I suspect that what is going on here is that these Democrats know there is no chance the medical device tax will be repealed, but they want whatever political cover may come from having complained about it, notwithstanding that they voted for the tax.

There are consequences to votes and following Obama blindly so that liberals could accomplish their Holy Grail of socialized medicine. The result is a deviating effect on the economy.

Ronald Reagan Warned Us of Barack Obama 40 Years Ago … Reagan Sums Up Obama in 5 Minutes, Man I Wish he was Still President

Who misses President Ronald Wilson Reagan?

Watch the VIDEO below and you will hear a speech from Ronald Reagan warn us of an individual like Barack Obama some 40 years ago. Those who understand what it means to lead and what it means to have an economy that is prosperous knew during Reagan and we know today that a government cannot spend its way to prosperity.  As Ronald Wilson Reagan stated years ago, government is the problem, not the solution.

As Reagan asked, “Do we still know the freedoms that the Founding Fathers had intended for us?” Man how I miss that man.
