Obama Minions Launch Political Ad Campaign Trying to Distance the President from High Gas Prices

The double standard continues on high gas prices … it can’t be Obama’s fault.

The not responsible for anything President Barack Obama’s minions are coming to his aid with a political ad campaign trying to claim that Obama is not responsible for ever rising gas prices. Looks like BIG OBAMA vs. BIG OIL. I guess it is safe to say that the high gas prices are a concern to Obama and his reelection team other wise no such ad would have ever been made. So is Obama supposed to get a pass on gas prices, GWB did not. The WAPO thinks the people are getting smarter with gas prices, hardly. This is what happens when the MSM shills for a Democrat and has a double standard when it comes to issues that are damning to Democrats and their all-in candidate Obama.

Priorities USA sends over the new spot, and it ties the group funding the earlier ad attacking Obama directly to Mitt Romney.

The American Energy Alliance is spending $3.6 milion on an ad attacking Obama that blames him for the fact that gas prices “nearly doubled” since he took office (gas prices were low at the time because of the financial crisis), and amplifies multiple falsehoods, including the suggestions that Obama wants gas prices higher. Politico recently reported that the American Energy Alliance has deep ties to the oil billionaire Koch brothers.

In response, Priorities USA’s new ad — which will be running in Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Michigan, New Mexico, Nevada, Ohio and Virginia — blasts the AEA ad as funded by Big Oil, and points out that the oil industry has pledged $200 million to Romney’s campaign:

The ad goes on to say the following; however, how come Obama’s lackeys do not repeat the words of Energy Secretary Chu who wanted to raise gas prices as part of Obama’s agenda or the VIDEO below where Barack Obama is all for higher energy prices? Hmm?

“Who’s behind this ad smearing President Obama? Big Oil, that’s who. The money they make from high gas prices — is going right into Mitt Romney’s campaign. Big oil executives have pledged two hundred million to help him. And Mitt Romney’s pledged to protect their record profits — and their billions in special tax breaks too. These guys all profit. You pay the price.”

Think high gas prices are not going to be a 202 election issue … Obama seems to think so.

OBAMANOMICS: 49% Trust Republicans on Economy, Only 38% Trust Democrats

Majority of Americans Trust GOP with economy rather than Democrats with Obamanomics … 

With the economy being the #1 issue for the 2012 election, polls show that Americans trust Republicans with the economy by a 49% to 38% more than Democrats. This double digit deficit can hardly be looked upon as a positive by Barack Obama or Democrats heading into the 2012 elections. The continued unemployment rate above 8%, ever rising gas prices, out of control national debt and poor job growth recovery will have a negative impact on those who have embraced Obamacare and Obama’s policies.

As they have for nearly three years now, voters trust Republicans more than Democrats when it comes to handling the economy, by far  the top issue on a list of 10 regularly tracked by Rasmussen Reports.  They put slightly more trust in Democrats on health care, the second most important issue.

Forty-nine percent (49%) of Likely U.S. Voters now trust the GOP with economic issues, while 38% trust the Democrats more. That’s the highest level of confidence in the Republicans since last October.

The Exploitation of Trayvon Martin: Parents of Murdered British Students James Cooper and James Kouzaris In Florida Rip Obama a New One For Lack of Compassion After Reaching Out Multiple Time … There was no “political value”

Barack Obama and the “political value” of death … HOW COME YOU NEVER HEARD OF THE MURDER OF JAMES COOPER AND JAMES KOUZARIS?

How come President Barack Obama  does not think that if James Cooper and James Kouzaris was his son, they would look like them? How come Obama has no compassion for these two murdered boys? Maybe as the parents of the two murdered boys states, there was no “political value” and not worthy of a few minutes of his [Obama's] time.

25 year old James Cooper and 24 year old  James Kouzaris were murdered in April 2011. The two were on vacation in Sarasota, FL . The two tourists were shot to death by 17 year old Shawn Tyson. The thug was just convicted on two counts of first degree murder.

Witnesses testified that Tyson told them he saw two “crackers” — a derogatory term for white people — walking through the neighborhood and that he intended to rob them. The tourists said they didn’t have any money and begged Tyson to let them go home. The men also told Tyson they were lost.

“Since you ain’t got no money, then I have something for your ass,” Tyson recounted to a witness, then added that he shot the men several times.

House Rules Be Damned … Rep. Bobby Rush (D-IL) Wears Hoodie in Honor of Trayvon Martin … Then Removed for Violating House Rules

NO RESPECT FOR THE RULES OF THE PEOPLE’S HOUSE …

This is the respect that Democrats have for House rules … Rep. Bobby Rush (D-IL) escorted out of House for breaking rules. Rush stated in his comments, “Just because someone wears a hoodie does not make them a hoodlum.” No,  however, it gets you removed fron the House under clause five of House Rule 17 against wearing hats on the House floor.

Rep. Bobby Rush, D-Ill., lost his right to speak on the House floor after he violated rules by putting on a hoodie and sunglasses in honor of Trayvon Martin, the Florida teen shot last month.

“May God bless Trayvon Martin’s soul, his family and — [inaudible]” Rush said as he was removed from the House floor this morning for wearing a hoodie.

The MSM Double Standard on High Gas Prices for Obama … Remember When it was a Negative for Bush?

THE MSM – OBAMA DOUBLE STANDARD CONTINUES, THEY ARE ALL IN ON OBAMA PROPAGANDA …

When Barack Obama became President of the United States gas prices were at a national average of $1.84 a gallon. Flash forward to present day and the national gas average is $3.89.  However, what was a negative news story for George W. Bush and the increasing gas prices is not even close to the same story spewed by the liberal MSM. Go figure.

Hot Air points out the continues and obvious bias media coverage of high gas prices under President Obama and former President GWB. Isn’t amazing that under GWB the media stated that the high gas prices were going to affect him and the GOP in the 2006 midterms. Guess what, they did. However, gas prices are at all time highs for this time of the year and that same bias MSM states that Obama cannot affect the gas prices and its not his fault. It gets worse, the MSM is actually portraying high gas prices as a positive. The truth of the matter is high gas prices will affect the 2012 elections for Obama and all Democrats.

Tim Graham outlined the differences between media coverage of high gas prices under George W. Bush and gas prices under Barack Obama. Bet you can guess which president received more leniency!

This really isn’t a hard or complicated issue to understand. A wide variety of factors contribute to the price of gas. The president doesn’t have control over all of them — but he does have significant control over energy policy in the United States and energy policy is one of the factors that contributes to the price of gas …

NewsBusters has the full transcript:

TIM GRAHAM: Certainly in 2006, George W. Bush got a much harsher press. It was really kind of funny because they were saying that things were going to go really badly for Bush in the midterm elections, which of course they did. But when gas prices went down in the fall of 2006, then Katie Couric did story where she basically said, “Is this an oil industry plot to drop the gas prices before the elections?” They just assume whatever spin that they can find. Yeah. The front page of New York Times this morning? “U.S. Inches Towards Goal of Energy Independence.”

The War on Republican Women … The Double Standard in the War Against Women … Bristol Palin Asks Where Her Phone Call is Barack Obama?

Some times politicians might want to rethink their comments and pandering. Don’t ask for things they might come true …

Democrats have long been known for their attacks on Republicans and comments stating that the GOP has a war on women. Really? Thanks to Rush Limbaugh and the “slutgate” scandal that Democrat politicians, the MSM and the Far LEFT latched onto, it also exposed the hypocrisy and double standard of the LEFT. President Barack Obama called Sandra Fluke; however, Bristol Palin is still waiting for her phone call.

You don’t know my telephone number, but I hope your staff is busy trying to find it. Ever since you called Sandra Fluke after Rush Limbaugh called her a slut, I figured I might be next.  You explained to reporters you called her because you were thinking of your two daughters, Malia and Sasha.  After all, you didn’t want them to think it was okay for men to treat them that way:

“One of the things I want them to do as they get older is engage in issues they care about, even ones I may not agree with them on,” you said.  “I want them to be able to speak their mind in a civil and thoughtful way. And I don’t want them attacked or called horrible names because they’re being good citizens.”

But here’s why I’m a little surprised my phone hasn’t rung.  Your $1,000,000 donor Bill Maher has said reprehensible things about my family.  He’s made fun of my brother because of his Down’s Syndrome. He’s said I was “f—-d so hard a baby fell out.”  (In a classy move, he did this while his producers put up the cover of my book, which tells about the forgiveness and redemption I’ve found in God after my past – very public — mistakes.) (Read the full letter here)

The RNC has released the VIDEO below that is reminding voters of the Obama administration’s track record when it comes to women. Of course the MSM would never really press Obama or his minions on it.

The Lonely Conservative asks whether the Democrats really want to pursue this topic of a war on woman? Not when there are so many examples of Democrat men behaving badly. Also, the glaring double standard that there is an open season on Republican and Conservative woman, but anyone who agrees with Obama is off limits.

Honestly, how can President Barack Obama actually make comments about his daughter Sasha and Malia. Obama has never lead by example and would not know a “teachable” moment if it bit him in the butt. Sorry, but how does a President with two daughters that he is supposed to be setting an example for take money from an individual who makes a living off of a “war on certain woman”? So Obama’s message to his daughters and the female population of America is, I will defend you only if you agree with me. NICE.

WOMEN OF AMERICA, TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT OBAMA LEADING BY EXAMPLE

The Daily Caller answers the question as to why Palin will continue to wait for the phone to ring … “Well, that was different, because he [Obama] didn’t see any short-term political advantage in it.

Obamanomics & Green Energy: US Taxpayers Pay Solar Firm ‘First Solar’ to Sell Solar Panels to Itself

As gas prices continue to skyrocket out of control, President Obama heads out to shill for his failed “green” energy agenda.  Take a good look at the shell game that is being played at the expense of ‘We the People”.

Obamanomics … You just can’t make this stuff up. Thanks to Barack Obama and his ‘green” energy agenda, American tax payers actually subsidized First Solar, a solar company that received a US taxpayer loan guarantee to sell solar panels. The problem, the company sold the solar panels to itself. UNREAL!

Every wonder why our economy is in disarray under Obama? Barack Obama and his minions are actually trying to make solar energy appear more viable than it really is. Welcome to the Obama green energy shell game where the buyer and seller are the same individual.

A heavily subsidized solar company received a U.S. taxpayer loan guarantee to sell solar panels to itself.

First Solar is the company. The subsidy came from the Export-Import Bank, which President Obama and Harry Reid are currently fighting to extend and expand. The underlying issue is how Obama’s insistence on green-energy subsidies and export subsidies manifests itself as rank corporate welfare.

Here’s the road of subsidies these solar panels followed from Perrysburg, Ohio, to St. Clair, Ontario.

First Solar is an Arizona-based manufacturer of solar panels. In 2010, the Obama administration awarded the company $16.3 million to expand its factory in Ohio — a subsidy Democratic Gov. Ted Strickland touted in his failed re-election bid that year.

Connect the dots of Obama’s solar energy corporate welfare … This reminds me of a ‘Married With Children’ episode where Peg was selling cosmetics and making a commission from the sales. The only problem was she was taking Al’s money to pay for the product. At least Peg Bundy was not using American tax payer dollars to claim she made a profit.

After First Solar pocketed this $17.3 million in government grants and $15 million in government loans, Ex-Im entered the scene.

In September 2011, Ex-Im approved $455.7 million in loan guarantees to subsidize the sale of solar panels to two solar farms in Canada. That means if the solar farm ever defaults, the taxpayers pick up the tab, ensuring First Solar gets paid.

But the buyer, in this case, was First Solar.

C-SPAN Founder Brian Lamb to Step Down as Chief Executive

Its the end of an era at C-SPAN … 70 year old Brian Lamb, the founder of C-SPAN will step down as chief executive effective April 1, 2012.  Lamb is handing over leadership to two co-CEOs, Rob Kennedy and Susan Swain. Brian Lamb will remain chairman of the board, with the new title of executive chairman. It is hard to believe that C-SPAN has been on the air for 33 years. For us political news junkies what would we have done without C-SPAN over the years?  Many of us today take C-SPAN, C-SPAN 2 and C-SPAN 3 for granted, but 33 years ago when it all started “We the People” could never see what actually went on in the “People’s” House.

C-SPAN – the original and one and only “Reality” Must See TV

Brian Lamb, who created the revolutionary nonprofit cable television network C-Span in the late 1970s and has been its public face ever since, is handing it over to two lieutenants, Rob Kennedy and Susan Swain.

Effective April 1, they will become the co-chief executives of C-Span and Mr. Lamb will become the executive chairman, formalizing a management change that has been years in the making. Mr. Lamb will continue to host “Q&A,” his Sunday night interview program, and will pursue other interests, like teaching.

The announcement will come on Monday, 33 years to the day that C-Span — short for Cable-Satellite Public Affairs Network — came onto cable television, predating CNN and ESPN.

Thank you Brian Lamb for your incredible vision and allowing “We the People” a peak into what is going on in Washington, DC and being able to hold our politicians accountable.

Obama Hope & Change … Cee Lo Green Sings “Fu@k You” Song & Gives the Middle Finger to the Crowd at Barack Obama Fundraiser

WELCOME TO OBAMA HOPE & CHANGE … FU*K YOU:

I believe the Obama’s political reelections minions finally found a new 2012 campaign slogan to replace “Hope & Change” …  “F” You.

Are you kidding me,  this is what we have been reduced to under Obama … Cee Lo Green Sings “Fu@k You” song and flips the bird to those in attendance at a Barack Obama fundraiser. This actually took place at a Presidential fundraiser in Atlanta, GA. What happened to that Obama civility? Seriously, how could stuff like this be allowed to take place at anything with any Presidents name attached to it?  Cee Lo Green actually sang the uncensored version of the F U song then quickly changed to “Forget You”.  How can Barack Obama actually justify hanging around with some one like this? Just curious Barack, do let Sasha and Malia listen to Cee Lo Green on their iPods?

Traveling with the president were two celebrities, film producer Tyler Perry and performer Cee Lo Green.

It’s the first time Obama has visited Georgia in 18 months. He will attend three fundraisers in Atlanta in hopes of increasing his fundraising pace in preparation for his showdown with a Republican presidential nominee.

The Obama campaign’s African American Leadership Council held a gala at Perry’s studio in Atlanta, featuring a performance by singer Cee Lo Green. General admission tickets were $500. VIP tickets ranged from $2,500 to $10,000. A dinner at Perry’s home was expected to raise $35,800 per guest.

Can anyone picture Ronald Regan allowing such a thing to happen? How about Lincoln and anyone else that the MSM so likes to compare this poor excuse of a President to?

Obama’s Folks Feeling the Hypocrisy Backlash … David Axelrod Bails on Bill Maher & HBO ‘Real Time” Appearance

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA FINDS HIMSELF WITH A DOUBLE STANDARD AND HYPOCRISY PROBLEM …

Looks like the Obama Administration is feeling the backlash of their going overboard and inconsistent approach when it comes to males making disgusting comments toward woman. In the wake of the Rush Limbaugh-Sandra Fluke controversy, the bringing to light the reprehensible and disgusting things that Leftist Bill Maher said about Sarah Palin and other women and the fact that Maher gave $1 million to Barack Obama’s SuperPAC … David Axelrod bails on Bill Maher and cancels his appearance on HBO’s ‘Real Time’.

Hard to take the high moral ground when you accept $1 million from the likes of this …

David Axelrod will not be appearing as a guest on “Real Time with Bill Maher,” despite reports last week that he was scheduled to do the show in the next few weeks.

“He’s not scheduled to go on at this time,” said Ben LaBolt, the press secretary for President Obama’s reelection campaign.

Maher, who donated $1 million to the pro-Obama super PAC Priorities USA, has increasingly become a target of right-wing attacks over the last week in response to the left’s attacks on Rush Limbaugh. Maher has come under fire for calling Sarah Palin a “c**t” during his stand-up act and a “dumb tw**t” on his HBO show, among other sexist comments.

Obviously the pressure is mounting on Barack Obama and the hypocrisy of his campaign in his selective outrage when it comes to defending woman. President Obama called fellow liberal Demcorat Sandra Fluke after she was called a “slut”. However, not only was there no call to Sarah Palin from Obama when she was called a “C” and “T” word by Maher … Barack Obama’s Super PAC accepted $1 million from Maher and has refused to return it. Now we see one of Obama’s loudest mouth pieces running from Maher with his hair on fire.  The Obama campaign just blinked. As stated at Jammie Wearing Fool, it looks like Axelrod is having second thoughts about appearing with Maher. Think other politicians might be doing the same in the future? Look to see more pressure brought to bare against Obama and the “dirty money” his Super PAC accepted. This story is now going to go away.
