Obama and the Democrats keep jabbering about “comprehensive immigration reform” as they refuse to secure the border.

This 90 second video will likely “go viral” this week:

Senator Kyle tells a town hall audience that President Obama told him:

The problem is, if we secure the border then you all (Republicans in Congress) won’t have any reason to support comprehensive immigration reform.

Gasps are heard from the audience.

While it is perhaps startling to hear in such frank language, this isn’t new information.  Read more »

The establishment media are speculating that President Obama has lost all political capital and is too unpopular to be effective.

They’re coalescing around a narrative to explain why:  The oil gushing into the Gulf of Mexico is Bush’s fault.  But since Obama is President now the ignorant voters blame him.

The first problem with this narrative is Obama himself, whose ego doesn’t permit him to acknowledge any circumstances are beyond his control.  He invited the criticism we’re now hearing from both Left and Right by announcing that he was personally in charge and accountable for:

1. stopping the leak,
2. preventing environmental and economic damage to the Southern Coast, and
3. ensuring that BP cleans up any damage and compensates those who are harmed.

So far none of these three is going very well.

But Obama’s problems predate the oil spill and are more fundamental.  He is both an aggressive contributor to, and now a victim of, the century-long progressive campaign to idealize and deify government power as the means to a Utopian human condition. Read more »

The Christian husband has a high standard to live up to…It is Jesus, himself…giving of himself sacrificially out of LOVE!

Across America and the world wonderful Christian husbands and fathers strive to love selflessly as Jesus did. This selfless love that Jesus modeled for husbands and fathers is the only reason Ephesians can also tell wives to “submit” It is no risk to submit to a compassionate, loving, self sacrificing man. So men actually have the harder job in Christ’s call!

None of us accomplish the beauty of a Christian marriage in our own strength. Temptations and selfishness are always in our way!

Thank God that He is a transformer! He transforms us all into closer examples of Jesus as we SUBMIT our lives to Him. Wonderful Christian husbands and wives bathe in PRAYER! Read more »

Even as President Obama castigates BP, he and the oil giant earned the same comeuppance as fallout from the oil spill.

As the oil spill catastrophe drags on and on the President suffers his most virulent attacks from his leftist base, including the media and the environmental movement.  These are the folks who fell for the hype and believed that Barack Obama was The One.  During the campaign they provided the money, the cheering crowds at a thousand rallies and the groveling,  slobbering TV coverage.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, in an interview on Ecuadorian TV made the bomb-shell announcement that the Obama Justice Department is preparing to sue the state of Arizona.

Obama’s second major oil spill speech was the second time he followed the Emanuel Doctrine.

The typical TV sitcom is a clash of disparate personalities, each pursuing his or her own agenda, unable to sincerely empathize with the others.  In Tuesday night’s oil spill speech President Obama was a narcissistic Raymond Barone paying lip service to the concerns of the American people while trying to use the oil crisis to maneuver them into unwitting acquiescence with his own priorities.

He began with dramatic phrases to persuade us that he understood the urgency and was on top of the “fight.”

• “I assembled a team of our nations best scientists and engineers…”
• “…we have directed BP to mobilize…”
• “…these efforts should capture up to 90% of the oil…”
• “…we will fight this spill with everything we’ve got for as long as it takes.”
• “…our battle plan going forward…”

He tried to assure us he knew and sympathized with the victims:

• “I’ve talked to shrimpers and fishermen who don’t know how they’re going to support their families this year.”
• “I’ve seen empty docks and restaurants with fewer customers…”
• “I’ve talked to owners of shops and hotels…”

He castigated the Minerals Management Service for malfeasance “over the last decade.”  (It’s Bush’s fault.) Read more »

During his Oval Office Oil Spill speech Tuesday night the President said:

…part of the reason oil companies are drilling a mile beneath the surface of the ocean – because we’re running out of places to drill on land and in shallow water.

Well, there are plenty of places to drill on land.  One is ANWR in Alaska.  Drilling at ANWR would generate hundreds of millions of barrels of oil.  It would provide tens of thousands of American jobs while reducing oil imports, something the President keeps saying he wants.

But due entirely to deceptive propaganda from the environmental lobby most Americans are misinformed about ANWR. Read more »

Newly released IRS Regulations show the actual value of the ObamaCare Small Business Tax Credit does not measure up to the hype.

Throughout the run-up to passage of ObamaCare in Congress, and in the re-selling campaign since passage, the President has continuously touted its “small business tax credit.”  Here’s a typical Obama quote from a re-selling pep rally in April:

Starting now, small business owners that provide health care to their workers can sit down at the end of the week, look at their expenses, and begin calculating how much money they’re going to save!

For small business owners who don’t currently provide health insurance, they’ll be able to factor in this new benefit in deciding whether to do so. And with that savings, employers may be able to cover an additional worker or hire that extra employee they’ve needed.

Even the IRS was used to help promote ObamaCare, sending post cards out to millions of small businesses to tell them they may be eligible for a tax credit equal to 35% of their health insurance costs.

The sales presentation makes it looks quite generous to employers.  But, as with all the promises of ObamaCare, the written details contradict the marketing.  It turns out that the small business tax credit is so limited, so restricted it’s worthless or nearly worthless to most small businesses.

• The tax credit does not apply to the cost of health insurance for Business owners or partners.  It doesn’t apply to relatives of owners or partners who are employees in the business.
• Businesses with 25 or more full time employees are ineligible for the tax credit.
  
• Businesses whose employees are paid, on average, more than $50,000 per year are ineligible.
• If the employer provides a plan that costs more than the government says is the “average” cost of health insurance in the employer’s state, the tax credit is reduced.
  

But even these stern rules make the tax credit appear to be more generous than it is. Read more »
