Bushes sneak in/out the White House on Friday

From Politico.com

Unbeknownst to the press, President Obama met Friday evening with former president George H.W. Bush and his son, former Florida governor Jeb Bush, in the Oval Office.

White House officials did not list the meeting on the president’s schedule but released a photo on Flickr. According to the photo’s time stamp, the meeting occurred shortly after 5 p.m., about the time the president returned to the White House from a fundraiser.

When asked what the men discussed and why it wasn’t on the schedule, the White House released a statement saying, “The three men enjoyed a personal visit in the Oval Office – as they have done on previous occasions when President Bush is Washington.”

The Bushes are in town to attend the exclusive Alfalfa Club dinner Saturday, an annual get-together for Washington power brokers that Obama also is scheduled to attend, according to the Associated Press.

The meeting came at an interesting time politically, just one day after Obama, in an interview with ABC News, blamed predecessor George W. Bush for policies that brought on the greatest recession since the Great Depression. He also blamed him for initiating the expansion of food stamp rolls.

Yet another energy porkulus recipient hits the skids

From GLOBALWARMING.ORG

Earlier this week, Stimulus beneficiary Evergreen Energy bit the dust. Then, Ener1, a manufacturer of batteries for electric vehicles and recipient of Stimulus largesse, filed for bankruptcy. And today, the Las Vegas Sun reports that Amonix, Inc., a manufacturer of solar panels that received $5.9 million from the Porkulus, will cut two-thirds of its workforce, about 200 employees, only seven months after opening a factory in Nevada.

I foresaw this spate of bad news last November. As I explained yesterday,

In a previous post, I compared renewable energy spending in the 2009 Stimulus to a green albatross burdening the President. I argued that Stimulus spending was inherently wasteful, because politics invariably corrupts government’s investment decisions. The result is taxpayers losses on bankrupt companies that existed only by the grace of political favoritism, a la Solyndra. I predicted the green stimulus would haunt the President, in the form of a slow drip public relations nightmare, as a litany of bad investments go belly-up in the run up to the 2012 elections.

Mr. President, are you still sure you want to “double down” on renewable energy giveaways?

Could this be America’s Kumbaya Moment?

By The InkDemon

Imagine a political season without contention and accusations.

Just think about a movement made up of high-minded thinkers on both sides of the political spectrum who have America’s best interest in mind.

Can you put all that together into a political party where everyone comes together and elects a humble, spiritual person to be a great president?

Just close your eyes, clinch your fists, tighten your jaw and imagine all that happening.  Now imagine when you open your eyes all this has happened!

It’s America’s Kumbayah moment!

Everyone is sitting with their arms around the person next to them.  They are swaying from side to side.  There is a big spiritual campfire, and everyone is singing:

Kumbaya, my Lord, kumbaya
Kumbaya, my Lord, kumbaya
Kumbaya, my Lord, kumbaya
O Lord, kumbaya ….

If you believe the Main Stream Media, this has finally happened.  It called America Elect.  It’s a true third party with more than a million signatures on a petition that will place a Kumbaya candidate on the ballot in every major state.

REALITY CHECK!

No third party has ever been successful in American politics.  There have been many third parties, but they all succeeded in electing the candidate whom the third-partiers did not want.

Think back to George H. W. Bush.  He was a waffling wimp of a president.  Americans loved his predecessor and longed for someone who could be the next Ronald Reagan.

That person of the moment was Ross Perot.  The billionaire was an instant celebrity on the Main Stream Media.  They all wanted to hear what he was saying.  Their questions came slow and easy.  In the news business, it’s what is known as puff-ball questions. Perot looked great.  Perot sounded great.  Perot’s logic was “flawless” to many.

He succeeded in getting William Jefferson Clinton elected to the presidency.

Lurking out there are several potential third party “movements”.  These movements are all as "big" as the egos of the billionaires behind them.

Excited MSNBC reporters say America wants America Elect

America Elect has a leader.  His name is Kahlil Byrd.

Would you believe Byrd was big-time Obama supporter in 2008 and has now turned into a "genuine" third partier with our interests at the center of his heart?

If you can believe all of that, the InkDemon has a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you, too.  Below are links to web sites ready to help you to achieve your own Kumbaya Moment.

CNN: New group paves way for alternative 2012 choice

American Thinker: Americans Elect: Obama's Third-Party Tar Pit

There other Kumbaya Moments out there.  One is the GOOOH movement.  Their silly leader was or is an executive at Dell Computers.  He wants to completely replace every House of Representatives member with a GOOOH geek. 

Kumbaya, my Lord.  Kumbaya! 

The leader of this "movement" wants your money.  With your money in his fist, he will assemble a gaggle of Democrats and Republicans who will change (forever?) the House of Representatives.

His name is Tim Cox.  He's armed with a Power Point demonstration that has "flawless" logic exactly like Ross Perot.

In reality, Cox like Ross Perot is just an empty suit.

The only way to defeat Obama and restore America to greatness is by electing the best available Republican candidate and then HOLD HIS FEET TO THE FIRE when he assumes office! 

Otherwise, we will be ruled by THEM!

Mike Reagan, Limbaugh defend Newt

Ronald Reagan’s eldest son Mike Reagan has issued a statement lambasting Mitt Romney and his supporters for claims that Romney’s Republican presidential rival Newt Gingrich was a strong critic of President Reagan.

Reagan says such claims are false.

Even Rush Limbaugh, shocked by the Romney claims, chimed on his Thursday radio broadcast to say “This is obviously a coordinated attack to take Newt out here in Florida.”

Rush slammed the Romney-backed smear campaign against Newt.

“That kind of stuff is why people hate Romney so much,” Limbaugh said.

Frightening Video About Islam Taking Over Our Schools

This video was e-mailed to the InkDemon by David Batson of the Texas Tea Party Alliance.  The e-mail contained the following message:

This is frightening so watch the entire video.

This is a very telling lecture. It hits at the root of what is happening in American Universities, and what is happening to our culture.

This fight is as real and costly as any combat this nation has been through in the past. The battlefield is non-conventional, but so are the methods of our enemies.

Please take the time to listen.  You will have to suffer a short commercial. (end of e-mail)

Passionate oratory about what is wrong with our schools and America!

The InkDemon says:

Why in the HELL can't CONSERVATIVES have more speakers like this!  All the InkDemon sees in Tea Party meetings are empty suits giving Power Points!   The unions and the radicals have speakers who project passion LIKE THIS SPEAKER!   The Tea Party has empty suit-ed geeks with Power Points!  ZZZZZZZ!

In our presidential elections, we have substituted very-structured,  mind-numbing debates and 20-second "infomercials" for passionate oratory!

IF we have no passion for what we believe, then we will SOON be ruled by THEM!  Why?  Because THEY have passion.

Does anyone remember George W. Bush (Bushy Baby) speaking to a Joint Session of Congress after 9/11?  The InkDemon expected a speech like Franklin Roosevelt's Day of Infamy speech.  Instead we got Bushy Baby very effeminately saying, "Islam is a religion of peace."

The InkDemon expected to hear a leader slam his fist on the podium and declare total war!   Instead we got a bushy-tailed Bushy Baby defending Islam!

We've been told that this is a very small group in the Muslims of the world.  A lie told 10,000 times becomes the "truth"!

Obama is not a Muslim ... Obama is not a Muslim ... Obama is not a Muslim ....

When we elect a neo-conservative RINO to the presidency, he or she will never rescind the presidential executive orders of the previous radical liberal president.  Bushy Baby never rescinded the Clinton presidential executive orders.  Mitt Romney, "Slick" Rick Santorum, and Newt Gingrich will not rescind Obama's radical executive orders.   Only Ron Paul says he will rescind all of the Obama executive orders on the first day.  Ron Paul will never be elected.  Where are we going from here?

We're going to Hell in a Power Point!

Will the Keystone Pipeline Harm the environment?

The InkDemon wants to know the answer to another question:

Why did not the Republicans put this map out there?

Why didn't U.S. House of Representatives Speaker John Boehner call a news conference and show this map?   Is he smoking dope, too?

Why didn't my congressman, Rep. Sam Johnson, put this map on his web page?

Why didn't Al Lee, who is running for the U.S. Congress and is promising to look out for the people, put these maps on his web site?

Why didn't Newt Gingrich, Mitt Romney, and "Slick" Rick Santorum, and even Ron Paul put this map on their web sites?

Who IS looking out for America?  Who is looking out for the folks?  I didn't see this on Bill O'Reilly's Show!

Is everyone too absorbed in watching, Days of Our Lives on TV?

Come on people!  Republicans are supposed to be smarter than this?  Is everyone smokin' DOPE?

It should have been simple.  Get a map and show the people where the existing pipelines are.  Overlay the existing pipelines with the proposed pipeline.   That would have exposed Obama and his liberal friends for what they really are: a bunch of liberal dope smoking LIARS!

Why Your Voter ID Card is in Limbo

Why haven’t you received your voters ID card if you live in Collin and other counties in Texas?

The redistricting drawn up by the Texas Legislature is in litigation and is being reviewed by the Obama Justice Department under Justice Secretary Eric Holder.

The issue of the court in San Antonio holding up the process is just muddying the water.

The law comes out of the liberalism of the 1960’s. According to Wikipedia:

The Voting Rights Act of 1965 is a landmark piece of national legislation in the United States that outlawed discriminatory voting practices that had been responsible for the widespread disenfranchis****t of African Americans in the U.S.

Echoing the language of the 15th Amendment, the Act prohibits states from imposing any "voting qualification or prerequisite to voting, or standard, practice, or procedure ... to deny or abridge the right of any citizen of the United States to vote on account of race or color." Specifically, Congress intended the Act to outlaw the practice of requiring otherwise qualified voters to pass literacy tests in order to register to vote, a principal means by which Southern states had prevented African-Americans from exercising the franchise. The Act was signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson, a Democrat, who had earlier signed the landmark Civil Rights Act of 1964 into law.

… The Act has been renewed and amended by Congress four times, the most recent being a 25-year extension signed into law by President George W. Bush in 2006.

The original act was directed to the following states:

§ Alabama

§ Alaska

§ Arizona

§ Georgia

§ Louisiana

§ Mississippi

§ South Carolina

§ Texas

§ Virginia
