The Obama "Fair Share" Propaganda Machine is Working

Barack Hussein Obama is eager to collect scalps from the class war he appears to have won in the election.

Americans, Obama said in his post-election news conference earlier this month, “want to make sure that middle-class folks aren’t bearing the entire burden and sacrifice when it comes to some of these big challenges. They expect that folks at the top are doing their fair share as well.” House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., echoed this point in a fundraising pitch sent out on Monday: “Voters sent a clear message to Republicans in the election: we must stand up for the middle class and ensure the wealthy pay their fair share.”

Although Obama and his fellow Democrats repeatedly call on wealthier Americans to pay their “fair share,” they never specify what percentage of the nation’s tax burden the wealthy would have to bear. The Washington Examiner recently published these bipartisan Congressional figures.  As matters stand, the top 1 percent of American households paid 39 percent of income taxes in 2009, according to the most recent data compiled by the Congressional Budget Office, and the top 5 percent of taxpayers paid 64 percent.

But income taxes, taken in isolation, do not tell the whole story, because lower-income Americans do pay payroll taxes. But even taking into account all forms of taxation, the top 1 percent still paid 22 percent of federal taxes while earning just 13.4 percent of household income. The top 5 percent paid 40 percent of all federal taxes, despite earning only 26 percent of all income.

No matter how you slice the numbers, it’s hard to understand why anyone would think the wealthy aren’t already shouldering a burden commensurate with their blessings.

In the next few weeks, Obama will keep repeating this “fair share” language as part of his call to raise taxes on those earning more than $250,000 per year. He also wants to close additional loopholes and limit deductions to increase their tax burden further. But bear this in mind: On top of whatever new taxes go into effect in the deal to avert the so-called fiscal cliff, there will be additional new taxes due to Obama’s national health care law. These include a 0.9 percent Medicare tax hike for individuals earning more than $200,000 per year and couples earning more than $250,000 as well as a 3.8 percent surtax on investment income.

Even if Obama gets his way on all of his tax hikes on the wealthy, it still won’t make a dent in the $16.3 trillion national debt. Later in his term, once he has blown all of the new revenue with spending increases and goes back to this well for still more revenues, will the media let Obama get away with claiming the wealthy aren’t paying their “fair share” once again, without specifying what constitutes fairness?

Hell to the YES. The main stream media including NBC, CBS, ABC and their cable siblings are nothing more than propaganda machines for the Obamanation.  Figures don’t lie but liars figure.  Obama is winning because he of the liberal fascist propaganda machine which controls both the news and entertainment media as well as the education system in the United States.

Expanding Dependency is the Foundation of the Obamanation

Increasing numbers of citizens are relying on government handouts to feed their families. Lines for food stamps are eerily reminiscent of the bread lines of the early 1930s. Are we in the midst of another depression?

Recent reports from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program show that the number of families claiming food stamps in the U.S. is rising dramatically.

In the first throes of the recession, 30,841,790 individuals and 13,900,815 families were reliant on government help to stock their cupboards. Now, despite repeated assurances from politicians that the worst of the economic downturn is behind us, more than 47 million people - a staggering 15% of the population –  are taking to social security offices in search of help with groceries.

Nationwide, there are more than 47.1 million Americans on food stamps. That includes 4.1 million in California and close to 4 million in Texas, according to USDA.

There were 26.3 million Americans on food stamps in 2007 before the big recession started and 28.2 million in 2008 before Barack Hussein Obama started his first term.

From 2007 to 2011, enrollment in SNAP increased 70 percent, to 46 million Americans per month at a cost of $78 billion, according to the Congressional Budget Office.

The average monthly family benefit is $250 a month.

How many Obama votes do you think the Food Stamp Program, known as SNAP, generated?

This country is in more trouble than you think.  We have brought it upon ourselves and there is no sign of anything getting better anytime soon. 

Obama’s intention: Expand dependency on the federal government.

Federal spending for food stamps has more than doubled since Obama took office.  The Obama administration saw fit to spend up to $3 million of taxpayers’ money in radio ads to get more Hispanics and working poor on food stamps. Newt Gingrich had the fortitude to tag Obama “the food-stamp president.”

The president’s signature legislative accomplishment, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare to most of us, dramatically expands Medicaid. Spending on Medicaid, the nation’s health program for the poor, is projected to increase by an additional $434 billion per decade. So far, five states have expanded Medicaid under Obamacare, resulting in 500,000 new enrollees to the program. Imagine how many millions more will be enrolled once the Obamacare law is fully implemented.

Most recently, the Obama administration quietly announced it would waive the work requirements written into the 1996 welfare reform law. The bipartisan legislation, which was signed into law by President Clinton, mandates that able-bodied people must work or be preparing for work as a condition for receiving welfare. The law has been a success, dramatically lowering poverty and cutting the number of welfare cases in half. While the impact of the administration’s decision on the number of people receiving welfare is not yet known, the outcome is easy to predict: less self-reliance, more government handouts.

Overall spending on welfare programs is up by more than 40 percent under Obama, and it’s clear from his actions that the president’s vision for America is one of debt and dependency, not opportunity and prosperity.

The problem with the president’s vision is a death spiral: Taxes have to keep going up to pay for the ever-increasing costs of the welfare state. There will come a point where nothing is left in the taxpayers’ pocket to take.

America asked for it and believe me, it will get worse before it gets better.  There are consequences for irresponsible actions.

We Will Reap What We Sowed as a Nation of Misinformed Morons

“The Democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those wo are willing to work and give to those who would not.” - Thomas Jefferson

Obama managed to win a second term with a fraction of his 2008 7.3% margin.  Voters have inexplicably doubled down on hope over experience.  Only a subversive liberal fascist or a moron could vote in favor of “fundamentally transforming America” into a Euro style Socialist State.  How is that working out for Greece, Spain, Portugal, Ireland and the rest of Europe? 

Single women, the youth who will inherit this record debt, liberals, government and union workers, and especially minorities from gays to Hispanics detrmined the outcome of the election.  They now control our beloved country.  Obama lost Independents and won less than 40% of white vote, the first Democrat since Walter Mondale to achieve that dubious distinction.  How do you think a second Obama term is going to work out?

Obama said little during his campaign about his first term and even less about his plans for a second.  Obama owes a debt to a pair of GOP appointees, and RINO Chris Christie, Republican governor of New Jersey.  By joining the four liberals on the Supreme Court in upholding Obamacare, Roberts provided a stamp of legitimacy to the unpopular and expensive health care law.  Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke’s latest round of quantitative easing was an invaluable contribution to Obama down the stretch.

Obama will now have to govern an America he so relentlessly sought to divide.  Good luck with that.

Obama’s victory represents a decline in national virtue and is a tipping point in favor of “takers” over “makers”.  The people have chosen the Nanny State over the Constitutional Republic. 

There are few permanent victories or defeats in American politics but “we the people” lost the most important election in my lifetime.  The battle for liberty beings anew this morning.

Update on Wednesday, November 7, 2012 at 4:37PM by Bonzer Wolf

Obama likely will end up winning a second term by 126 electoral votes. The Electoral College does tend to inflate leads a bit, since a candidate only needs to win by 0.1% to win all of a state’s votes. Still, Obama’s victory was the largest for an incumbent president since Reagan in 1984.

The popular votes are still coming in, but Obama has a slight lead with 59,621,436 to Romney’s 56,989,709. The Democrats regain control of the senate with 51 seats to the GOP’s 45 and the Republicans regain control of the House with 232 seats to the Dems 191.

Florida Hates Obamacare, America to Follow

The  Daily Caller reports that the first poll conducted after the Supreme Court upheld President Barack Obama’s health care reform law shows bad news for Obama and his fellow Democrats.

Fifty percent of 650 Florida adults polled by SurveyUSA opposed the court’s decision to uphold the law. Only 39 percent supported the decision.

The poll also showed that 51 percent of respondents expect health care costs to rise faster, and 47 percent believe quality will decline because of the decision and the law.

The poll showed that 83 percent of respondents were following the debate.

Those poll numbers are preliminary, and the court’s decision may end up boosting Obama in the 2012 election. But if they do remain stable, the decision pushes Florida’s 29 electoral votes toward Republican candidate Mitt Romney’s tally.

Currently, in Florida, Obama leads Romney by a slight margin, according to a compilation of state polls displayed by The Huffington Post.

Obama has support from 45.5 percent of the state’s voters and Romney has 44.6 percent support, leaving almost 10 percent of the voters uncommitted.

Voter fraud, which the Democrat party depends upon to remain in power, is a big problem in America.  Voters have to overcome the fraud that Holder is suing to keep alive for dead voters.  If this and Obamacare don’t rally the patriots to get the vote out and defeat liberal fascsim in America, nothing will.

Invest in guns and ammo until the outcome is determined. 

Armed people are free. No state can control those who have the machinery and the will to resist, no mob can take their liberty and property. And no 220-pound thug can threaten the well-being or dignity of a 110-pound woman who has two pounds of iron to even things out … People who object to weapons aren’t abolishing violence, they’re begging for rule by brute force, when the biggest, strongest animals among men were always automatically right. Guns ended that, and a social democracy is a hollow farce without an armed populace to make it work. – L. Neil Smith (from The Probability Broach)

Get Rid of Obamacare by Getting Rid of Obama

I don’t agree with Chief Justice John Roberts and the majority decision on the Affordable Health Care Act. But I do agree that Obamacare is ObamaTax. The job of the Supreme Court is not to legislate but to protect the Constitution and our Bill of Rights.

We the people are responsible for electing the liberal statists that enacted the laughable Affordable Care Act.  There is nothing affordable about it. It’s the largest tax increase on middle America in my lifetime. 

It’s ironic that Democrats including Obama, told us hundreds of times that Obamacare was not a tax. Obamacare would lower health care costs. The CBO cost estimate is now over twice what Obama told us it would be.  Multiply that number by ten for the real cost.

Justice Roberts and the majority found the law constitutional because it’s a tax. It is a well established precedent that the government has virtually unlimited taxing power.  It’s our job as citizens and voters to elect representatives that won’t tax us to death.  Tax laws are easily changed and we have elections for the House every other year.

It’s not the job of the Supreme Court to bail us out because we don’t take our electoral duties seriously or made bad choices.  Roberts has supported the Bill of Rights before, including Second Amendment civil rights.  He’s not a judical activist.  Any judge that Obama appoints at any federal level is both a liberal and a judicial activist.  We’re stuck with all of them for life! Would you rather have Romney or Obama appointing judges?

It’s time for the people to do their job.  We must elect Constitutionally sound Representatives who represent the will of the people.  If we fail, we have nobody to blame but ourselves. Romney is far from perfect. The GOP made a poor choice as usual.  But it is what it is and it’s him or Obama. 

If the ObamaCareTax and the arrogant, above the law, Attorney General Eric Holder, who was held in criminal contempt of Congress today, don’t fire you up to support, campaign for and contribute to candidates committed to following the Constitution, than nothing will. It’s not like the Democrats took over by force.  Sure they support voter fraud, but even without those votes, Obama wins in 2008.

I’m a Libertarian and I will vote for GOP candidate Ted Cruz to represent Texas in the U.S. Senate.  He’s a libertarian leaning conservative.  It’s either him or RINO Dewhurst. Dewhurst represents everything wrong with the GOP.

I contributed to the Romney Campaign to support the full repeal of the ObamaCareTax today.  This Presidential election won’t be decided by Texas. Neither candidate run’s TV ads here.  Texas has been written off as a red state.  The presidential battle in Texas has already been won by Romney. 

I’m voting for LP nominee Gary Johnson.  Romney will get the Texas Electoral votes.  If that changes and Obama has any chance of taking Texas, I would hold my nose and vote for Romney. Obama is that bad.

Ohio, Florida, Nevada, North Carolina, Wisconsin, Michigan, West Virginia and the other swing states is where my contributions will go.  You don’t have that luxury of voting Libertarian in the swing states that will determine the outcome of the election.

I’m a practical Libertarian and a proud Tea Party patriot.  I don’t agree with my conservative friends on every issue but we agree on the most important issues and all of us are fighting to defend this nation from the tyranny of liberal fascism. 

The Supreme Court woke up a sleeping giant today.  This fight is just getting started. Join the NRA and spend a few dollars to support candidates like Ted Cruz in Texas if you want to defeat the ObamaCareTax.  The Democrats have Obamacare now.  They’re coming after your guns next. 

Criminals obey “gun control” laws in the same manner politicians follow their oaths of office.
