From the time the Pilgrims arrived on American soil, faith in God played an important part in shaping our nation. Images of Moses adorn the Supreme Court in recognition of the Judeo-Christian origin of our laws. But it was Taxes, loss of Liberty and oppression from a mad king that led our Founding Fathers to write The Declaration of Independence and start The American Revolution. Today, those who stand for these ideals no longer call themselves The Silent Majority because we are silent no more.
What do you know about the person who occupies The White House? The following video contains the complete dossier on Barack Hussein Obama, II a.k.a. Barry Soetoro based upon acknowledged records available at this time. The list of official background documents on Barack Hussein Obama, II that has never been released to the public include his kindergarten records, Punahou school records, Occidental College records, Columbia University records, Columbia thesis, Harvard Law School records, Harvard Law Review articles, scholarly articles from the University of Chicago, passport, medical records, files from his years as an Illinois state senator where his public voting record shows he cast 125 votes as "Present" for a variety of bills, his Illinois State Bar Association records, any baptism records and his adoption records.
Obama for America, Obama's 2008 political campaign, merged with the Democratic National Committee in January and is now known as Organizing for America. The grass-roots army that some refer to as "Obama 2.0" is still collecting financial contributions. Federal Election Commission records for "Obama for America" show that the lobby organization has paid international law firm Perkins Coie exactly $1,666,397.01 since the 2008 election as of the FEC report dated September 30, 2009 to maintain the secrecy of the Obama records in numerous court cases seeking these hidden records.
The FEC allows elected officials to use campaign funds to pay legal fees only if the action/investigations arise as a result of their tenure in office or campaigns, according to Politico. An FEC report also reveals Obama For America also paid $6,365 in legal fees to Olaker, Biden & Belair, a firm founded by Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden.
Third in a series on the collapse of the Obama presidency, its causes, and its effects on Barack Obama, effects comparable to the 5 stages of grief. Part One dealt with denial, Part Two with anger. Today:
BARGAINING
In the 5 stages of Obama’s grief over his failed presidency, after denial and anger comes bargaining.
We bargain all the time.
The lover bargains with his beloved when she no longer wants to be his beloved. The workman bargains with his employer when he tries to wheedle more pay. The supplicant bargains with God, often on his death bed.
And the politician bargains when he compromises with his fellow politicians and bargains with the electorate when he campaigns for election.
In Obama’s case, he is bargaining out of desperation: A new Gallup poll shows the incumbent president in a statistical dead heat with . . . every Republican, i.e. against any generic Republican. Worse, Mr. Generic Rep leads Obama 45%-31% among American independents: http://bit.ly/bLoz41.
Those sad realities for Obama in and of themselves represent a sad commentary on the status of his presidency.
Compound them with doubts within his own party and things look even worse: “He says ‘I’m for clean coal,’ and then he says . . .
