Bill Whittle explains why Obama doesn’t recognize when someone else actually does build a business on their own:

Barack Obama said something stunning. He thinks that government is responsible for private sector success, not individual initiative and hard work. This doesn’t surprise Bill Whittle, who reminds viewers that Obama was surrounded by socialists growing up, and even started his political career in the living room of a radical, violent socialist.

Your comments about Obama's miraculous life are excellent....however many others have intimated these same facts but no one seems to be able to prove that he isn't even an America citizen. It is incomprehensible that with all the data whiz kids around no one can unlock his secrets and the connections that made his mysterious life so private. I am so discouraged by him and literally pray that someone will really open the locked trunk and expose all the lies. I hope you can do so.

Hey dumbass, those roads and bridges were paid for with TAX DOLLARS confiscated from citizens and built by PRIVATE CONTRACTORS; the government doesn't build roads, houses, building or bridges, they are built by private corporations and citizens. This guy is such an idiot it makes me want to puke. I can't believe how gullible and ignorant his supporters are.

This guy's phenomenal.

He shows how Hussein Obama has been raised by "handlers".

And we must stay focused and alert because these handlers

don't want to fail in November. They are now already scheming

how to get their stooge in again - by hook or by crook!

There is an element to Obama's speech that I have not seen brought up anywhere. After watching and listening closely to the speech a few times, becoming more incredulous every time that this is the President of the United States talking, a thought occurred to me.

If you accept that to Obama everything is about him (witness the recent speech where Obama says "I" and "me" 127 times in under 25 minutes), this speech sure sounds like sour grapes.

Obama is looking around at all the independently successful creators, industrialists, entrepreneurs, etc. (including Romney), and says, paraphrased here, "You think you work hard? A lot of people work hard. I could if I wanted to. You think you created something? I could do that too. I haven't, but I could. You think you're smart? Well, I am smart, too."

It is getting even to Obama himself that the guy has never done anything of substance in his entire life. Now that he is getting vetted a little bit, this one of his responses.

One word summary: EGO.

And can we thank Sarah Palin for endorsing RINOs John McCain and Orrin Hatch ? Way to go, Sarah!!! We, the Tea Party, really needed two more kicks in the groin.

One of the best videos I've seen from Bill Whittle and all of his are good. Can we not get him a speaking post at the RNC or at least play a video of his on the big screen there? We need more people like Bill.

This may be a little off topic. I hope the Moderator is feeling benevolent this evening. I just received this from a friend who sends me stuff from time to time. I don't ordinarily condone profanity, but this pretty much expresses the way I feel right now about our Federal government and our current situation.

Here's a quote from a government employee who witnessed a recent interaction between an elderly woman and an antiwar protester.

There were protesters at the grocery store handing out pamphlets on the evils of America

I politely declined to take one.

There was an elderly woman behind me and a young (20-ish) female protester offered her a pamphlet, which she politely declined. The young protester put her hand on the old woman's shoulder as a gesture of friendship and in a very soft voice the young lady said, "Lady, don't you care about the children of Iraq?"

The old woman looked up at her and said:

"Honey, my father died in France during World War II, I lost my husband in Korea, and a son in Vietnam.

All three died so a bitch like you could have the right to stand here and badmouth our country. If you touch me again, I'll stick this umbrella up your ass and open it."

This was my first thought when Obama made that grossly ignorant statement. He has been spoon fed and coddled his entire life. The only "job" we've ever heard about was at Subway in Hawaii...then we jump right to "community organizer", aka community thug. He has clearly had an easy life provided by somebody else's dime so it makes sense that he would project that onto society. I abhor that man more than anybody I've ever known.

Consider this scenario. A FREE movie with FREE drinks and popcorn for Obama voters and this message from Bill plays first. No one would believe Bill or even care. They are blinded by laziness, apathy and only care that he will take care of them. FREE FREE FREE, but not Freedom.

That's why I think Romney shouldn't release any more tax returns. To heck with all of them. There are so many questions in Obama's past that have been left unanswered by the mainstream media, it would be pointless for Romney to cater to their demands. All they would do is want more information that they are not entitled to. So to heck with him. Romney should say, "I'll release more tax information when the president decides to release all his school records (both graduate and undergraduate) and medical records. Until them, you can all go pound salt." I think every conservative in this country would stand up and cheer if he said that.

I just saw a picture of Barack and Michelle. Barack was saying"...and we have two daughters, Sasha and Malia..." Michelle breaks in and says, "You didn't do that, someone else made that happen!"

Martin Luther King says "I have a dream!" Obama..."You didn't dream that!..."

"Ugh. Romney is ranting right now about Obama’s statement that businesses don’t get successful “on their own.” Guess what Mitt? Bain didn't become successful "on their own" either." Here's the proof: http://huff.to/MJ6Ccg -Jennifer Granholm

Since she hasn't learned her lesson, learned her role and shut her mouth, I'll be posting this on her page, and see if she responds. Long ago, she learned to hate me, personally, and stopped talking to me, letting her minions bum rush me with their ineffective, en-masse ankle bite attacks. I'm sure she'll love this video.

Hey Scoop I would like to post this on your next OT.

Everyone should email this article to their governor ( I just did).

OK is trying to pass a law on nullifying O-NO-care.

Looks like they might be successful.

"Who did it for him, and why?"

Thank you Bill Whittle for laying out the lead-in to one of the most important unanswered questions in our history.

If we could lay bare that truth, we may have a chance again at a free Constitutional Republic.

Something tells me Mitt Romney knows - as do many others in our political class. This too will come out, and when it does they will have no excuse for either not knowing, or for failing to tell America.

No, Joe, I wasn't aware of that, but it's not surprising. After all she's only been proud of her country once in her life, and I still think about that quite often. Nothing about either one of those two is surprising to me....disappointing perhaps, but not surprising.

If you've known anything about these two anti-Americans, why would you be disappointed? I'm disappointed in the people who voted for him. We will get rid of him in November but we still are left with a lot of people who don't have a clue. We will still be left with a Marxist educational system and a Marxist press. We have a long fight ahead of us, but this country has always been fighting for our principles and with every victorious battle somehow we get stronger.

Nope, they'll just continue to cover for him and his family. I just don't get it. The media is complicit by not doing their "objective vetting" of obama when he was a candidate, yet they raked McCain over the coals time and again. I gave up on the LSM years ago and obviously so have millions of others.

I'm about halfway through 'The Amateur' by Edward Klein.Without exception,everybody who's ever helped Obama has been betrayed.From the white grandparents who raised him and sent him to the best private school in Hawaii,to those who arranged a free ride through college to those who put up the money to get him started in politics,to Jeremiah Wright,who taught him how to speak black,they all are thrown away when they are of no further use to him.

That is because the left has no conscience or moral values. They are godless and their ideology is their true religion, which is based on relativism. The ends justify the means, which is why every attempt at utopian statism in the 20th Century ended in millions of people being executed, because eventually they have to eliminate those who disagree with them because utopian statism requires conformity (from the "masses" anyway). And the deaths of millions are reasonable to them because it allows them to advance their agenda. The problem is that these people ignore history and human nature. Utopian statism cannot ever succeed no matter how many opponents they kill. They cannot fulfill the promises they make of the better world that is just over the horizon, but never quite arrives. In every system, their promise of equality is that the ruling elite are wealthy and live in luxury and the masses are equal in their misery. This is our future with Obama and his ilk and I hope and pray there are enough Americans who still treasure our national heritage, culture and Constitution to send him packing in November --- and never allow anyone with that mindset in our White House again!

What percentage of population in 1770's fought the revolution? It won't be easy this time around but it can still be done successfully. We know one thing for sure about the left, they are cowards when confronted by truth. They suddenly find a convenient way to hide their agenda or misspoke or suddenly have everything sealed.

white531
white531

Yet again, capelady, you are on the cutting edge of the problem that we face. How do you turn around a ship in the ocean that is headed in the wrong direction? Very, very slowly. What everyone has to understand, is that like it or not, the Progressives are in control right now. We have a Socialist President who the media supports 100%. We don't enjoy that media support. We have to look to ordinary, working class Americans for support. It will take time and patience to regain control of what is basically a Conservative nation. But it can be done. A little faith in God wouldn't hurt.

I think it was only about 1/3 of the colonists who supported the Revolution. And you are absolutely right about them being cowards... the biggest problem we have is that getting rid of Obama is only the beginning. The left has made every effort for decades to institutionalize their agenda throughout the bureaucracy, so if Romney is not willing to disband ideological agencies like the EPA and start over, these radical leftists are civil servants and we will not be rid of them for years! The sad thing is that we know what to do to fix what is wrong with America, but we don't have enough truly conservative leaders in Washington to get it done while there is still time. They are either intimidated by political correctness, or more worried about being reelected than doing what is right for America! The RINOs have got to go, along with the socialists!

I read last week where Orca was going to interview the chosen One and his brood mare for her magazine.She also did an interview with George and Laura Bush.She lost most of her TV audience when she went all in for Obama and told Sarah to piss off.After her show was cancelled she tried to start her own network,which is tens of millions in debt.She'll probably still vote for him if she votes at all.After all that,Valerie Jarrett told her she was not welcome in the White House.(Mooch is extremely jealous).
