While Barack was developing his Marxism at University, and Racism with Jeremiah Wright, what was Paul Ryan doing?

Arlene Taber sent the following article:

 
 
                                                   
Well, early Saturday morning we learned that Congressman Paul Ryan, Republican from Wisconsin, is to be Mitt Romney’s pick for the next Vice President of The United States.What are we to think of this selection?  He’s not a graduate of Columbia University.  He’s not a graduate of Harvard.  He wasn’t selected as the President of the Harvard Law Review.  He didn’t get a special free quota scholarship ride to any prestigious university and, instead, had to work his way through Miami University of Ohio.  For God’s sake the man drove the Oscar Mayer Wiener Truck one summer and waited tables another! One morning when Paul Ryan was sixteen years old he went in to wake his father up and found him dead of a heart attack.  He didn’t write two books about that experience.  Instead, he assumed the role of adult at an early age, never having the luxury to pursue youthful drug use and the art of socialist revolution. Instead, Paul Ryan and his mother took his grandmother, suffering from Alzheimer’s, into the household and served as the primary care provider for his grandma.  His grandma wasn’t the Vice President of the Bank of Hawaii so she could offer nothing in return, except the element of “need”.

Once Paul Ryan got his BA in Economics from Miami University of Ohio he was hired as a staff economist in Wisconsin Senator Kastin’s office.  The job must have not paid well because young Ryan moonlighted as a waiter and fitness trainer.  No one offered him a “token honor” position at the University of Chicago and a $200,000 dollar a year salary.

When a still young Paul Ryan returned to Wisconsin to run for Congress he didn’t demonize his opponent and dig up dirt to shovel against him.  He waited until the standing Congressman vacated the office before seeking the office.   InJanesville, Wisconsin they don’t have a big political machine to promote you, to criminalize your opponent; instead Paul Ryan had to go door to door and sit at kitchen tables and listen to his future constituents. 

After getting elected to Congress Paul Ryan didn’t triumphantly march into Washington, buy himself a Georgetowntownhouse and proceed over to K Street to rub elbows with lobbyists.  He bunked in his Congressional office and used the house gym for showers and a fresh change of clothes.

Paul Ryan then married and took his bride back to Janesville.  He lives on the same street he lived on as a kid and shares the neighborhood with eight other members of the Ryan clan.  He hunts with the local Janesville hunt club and attends PTA meetings and other civic functions.

For those who can’t make those public functions, Paul Ryan bought an old bread truck, converted it into a “mobile constituent office” and drives around to meet with those who need his help and attention.

No, I don’t know if we can vote for a guy like this.  He doesn’t have a regal pedigree; he’s an Irish Catholic for God’s sake!  No one awarded him a Nobel Peace Prize two months after getting elected.  No one threw flowers or got “chills down their leg” as a he took his seat in Congress.

What is most despicable about Paul Ryan is that he has had the nerve to write the House Budget for three years in a row.  He’s is brazen and heartless in advocating in that budget for a $5 trillion dollar reduction in federal spending over the next ten years!  The House passed his budget three years in a row and three years in a row the Democratically controlled Senate has let it die in the upper house, without ever proposing a budget of their own.   What is wrong with this guy?  If Congress were to cut $5 trillion dollars from the budget where would the President get the money to give $500 million dollars to a bankrupt campaign crony-payback Solyndra?  Or $200 million dollars for bankrupt Energy 1?  Or $11 billion dollars to illegal aliens filing INIT, non-resident tax returns to claim $11 billion big ones in child tax credits, even for their children living in Mexico to solidify and add to his “undocumented Democrat” voters?

I don’t know.  Paul Ryan seems heartless to me.  He keeps wanting to cut government waste, he keeps wanting to put a halt to those big GSA conventions in Vegas and, worse, he keeps trying to make people look at that $16.7 trillion dollar deficit!  The guy’s no fun at all!  Facts and logic – where does he get off??

Who wants a numbers cruncher?  Who wants someone spoiling the party by showing folks the bill?  Nothing will spoil a party quicker than sending the host the bill before the party’s over. 

‘Party Hearty’ folks!  At least until November.

Obama Campaign’s Daily Lies Continue as Obamalies Continue

A few weeks ago Obamacamp accused Mitt Romney of killing a guy’s wife because he took away her job five or six years earlier.   Mr. Romney had been  managing Bain Capital at the time.   It was his expertise to reorganize American businesses who were on the verge of financial collaps and turn them around to regain productivity……and save jobs.

Obamalie was needed.   First a  lie  was spread, a lie still massaged by Obama and camp, that Romney sent the jobs to China.   That didn’t go too well to raise the incompetent president’s ratings….so a second lie, one more American family oriented was concocted EITHER BY OBAMA AND THE WHITE HOUSE OR HIS SUPER PAC, claiming the  the former Massachusetts governor had caused a worker in his Bain Capital days to lose his wife to cancer (five years after the reorganization of the struggling company, which was closed.)

Obama, our president, appeared before the nation and proudly announced another lie, claiming  no one in his campaign had anything to do with this dastardly lie that Romney was a murderer;  he had no connection to the claim and no connection to the ugly or less ugly part of his Super Pac advertizing bureau.   Further research regarding phone records prove otherwise…..The two lying sources are directly connected.

Today’s Obama lie is noted at Investors.com:

Obama’s Latest Whopper:

He Created More Jobs Than Reagan!

Campaign ’12: Where are those allegedly unbiased fact-checkers when you need them? Like this week and the fantastic fib that Obama’s deputy campaign manager told about job growth under the current president.

Here’s Stephanie Cutter’s quote in full — uttered Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” — just so no one can accuse us of taking anything out of context:

“Well, I think that worker probably has a good understanding of what’s happened over the past four years in terms of the president coming in and seeing 800,000 jobs lost on the day that the president was being sworn in, and seeing the president moving pretty quickly to stem the losses, to turn the economy around. And over the past, you know, 27 months we’ve created 4.5 million private-sector jobs. That’s more jobs than in the Bush recovery (or) in the Reagan recovery.”

You’d think that if the Obama campaign wanted to peddle outright fabrications, they’d at least do it so they weren’t so easily debunked.

Not that the mainstream press, so deep in the tank for Obama, will bother.

But you don’t have to look very hard to see that Cutter, as Obama might say, is “just making stuff up.”

She starts counting private-sector job growth under Obama in February 2010 and, sure enough, in the 29 months since then (not 27 as Cutter says), there have been 4.5 million private-sector jobs created, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

But keep in mind that February 2010 was fully eight months into the economic recovery. So Cutter has simply picked the worst month under Obama as her starting point, in order to make Obama’s job growth look as impressive as possible.

So, in fairness, let’s do the same for Reagan and Bush.

In the aftermath of the 1981-82 recession, private-sector jobs bottomed out in December 1982, the month after that recession ended. Twenty-nine months later, the private sector under Reagan had created 8 million jobs — nearly twice as many as under Obama.

How about Bush? Surely job growth during his administration was worse. After all, the president keeps telling us that his predecessor’s policies “resulted in the most sluggish job growth in decades.”

Except if you use the Cutter method, the private sector created 4.7 million jobs in the 29 months after July 2003, when the job market bottomed. In other words, Bush beat Obama by his own preferred measuring technique by 200,000 jobs.

It’s worth noting, too, that jobs started growing under Bush one month after he signed his second major tax cut into law. It chopped capital gains and dividend tax rates and accelerated the schedule for the Bush income-tax rate cuts.

What’s more, after 29 months of allegedly stellar job growth under Obama, the jobless rate is still 8.3%. By this point in the Reagan and Bush jobs recoveries, the unemployment rate was 7.2% and 4.9%, respectively.

If we were one of those fact-checking organizations, we’d give Stephanie Cutter the “Lying Liar from Liersburg” award.

What are the main Mormon worries about Modern America?

Over 30 years ago a Mormon elder, Neal Maxwell  spoke of the rise in America of the religion of “Irreligion” becomng the state religion rising out of Washington.

It is one of the finest videos I have ever seen outlining the modern day battle between today’s soulful and soulless Americans in and out of government.

View and view   again, listening carefully to the concerns of our fellow American Mormon Christian leadership:
