Obama Repeatedly Reminds House GOP Of Their Zero Stimulus Votes

source

In a meeting with House Republicans at the White House Thursday, President Obama reminded the minority that the last time he reached out to them, they reacted with zero votes — twice — for his stimulus package. And then he reminded them again. And again. And again.

A GOP source familiar with the meeting said that the president was extremely sensitive — even “thin-skinned” — to the fact that the stimulus bill received no GOP votes in the House. He continually brought it up throughout the meeting.

Obama also offered payback for that goose egg. A major overhaul of the health care system, he told the Republican leadership, would be done using a legislative process known as reconciliation, meaning that the GOP won’t be able to filibuster it.

Congress has until October 15 to pass health care or student lending reform under the normal process. If it doesn’t, reconciliation can be used to eliminate the 60-vote requirement.

Democratic aides said that Obama made clear to the GOP leadership that he would continue to work in a bipartisan way, but that they didn’t have veto power over health care policy. GOP aides, however, said that Obama was pretty clear that reconciliation would be used. “From what was told me, it sounded more like he would almost definitely use reconciliation for healthcare. I don’t think he hedged much,” said one.

Another GOP aide said that Obama and House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) had a back-and-forth about the zero votes. Obama argued that House Republicans had made a “strategic decision” to oppose the stimulus, while Boehner countered that Obama hadn’t accepted House Republican input on the bill.

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) pushed back against the decision to use reconciliation. “As he told the President during a meeting at the White House on Thursday, Senator McConnell and his colleagues want to be part of the solution to reforming our country’s health care system and expects the majority party to include Republicans in that process. Sen. McConnell wants a bipartisan solution,” said McConnell spokesman Don Stewart.

“Fast-tracking a major legislative overhaul such as health care reform or a new national energy tax without the benefit of a full and transparent debate does a disservice to the American people,” said McConnell in a statement. “And it would make it absolutely clear they intend to carry out their plans on a purely partisan basis.”

Tell Obama Not to Appoint Former Monsanto Lawyer on White House Food Safety Panel

President Obama announced on March 14th the creation of a White House Food Safety Working Group to improve and coordinate the governments approach to the nationwide food safety crisis. Included in President Obama’s short-list of working groups members is Michael Taylor, a former Monsanto executive who has a long history of lobbying for Monsanto and fast tracking Monsanto’s controversial rBGH while at the Food and Drug Administration. Taylor is a case study of the “revolving door,” having worked within the USDA and FDA, as well as Monsanto.

Take action now. Tell Secretary Vilsack to urge President Obama to appoint true champions for food safety, not shills for Monsanto.

Impostor President Obama: Victory Will Be Short Lived

IMPOSTOR PRESIDENT OBAMA: VICTORY WILL BE SHORT LIVED

By: Devvy

© 2008 - NewsWithViews.com

Everyday my mail box is filled with requests to investigate corruption at all levels of government. It’s regrettable that so much time and effort has to be directed in exposing Barack Hussein Obama aka Barry Soetoro, aka Barry Obama, aka Barack Dunham, aka Barry Dunham as a fraud, but it must be done.

In my last exclusive on the U.S. Supreme Court, December 15, 2008: ‘Has the U.S. Supreme Court No Shame?‘ I covered the cowardice by those justices earlier this week. I also wanted to let readers know that I put some of the legal documents from those cases, critical material from Leo Donofrio’s web site and the U.S. v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S. 649 (1898) case on audio. One of the recordings is also Dr. Edwin Vieira’s column dated December 8, 2008; more on that below. This makes it easy for Americans who are overwhelmed with obligations to be able to listen to all this material on your computer, down load to a CD and listen while you drive or onto an IPod and listen on the commute train or on a plane.

The importance of Edwin’s column can not be ignored. Despite one of the largest grass roots efforts in the 19 years I’ve been in the ‘freedom movement,’ the Supreme Court spit on the U.S. Constitution; so did the electoral college delegates on the same day.

The process is not over yet as Edwin explains in his column: One member of the House of Representatives and one counterfeit U.S. Senator can raise an objection to the vote of the electoral college on January 20, 2009; this must be done:


“Indeed, in these times, the very absence of an objection may indicate only that “the good old boys” in Congress—Democrats certainly, and Republicans most likely, too—have “cut a deal” among themselves behind the scenes in order to suppress an investigation the inevitable and unavoidable results of which would demonstrate the utter bankruptcy, if not criminality, of the present electoral process—in that an individual possibly not “eligible to the Office of President” and his handlers may have managed to bamboozle, bribe, blackmail, or otherwise subvert, suborn, or silence both of the “two” major political parties, the big media, the pundits, and every public official with civil or criminal jurisdiction over elections throughout both the General Government and the States.”

Patrick Briley, who has a long history of interaction with Sen. James Inhofe, has formally asked Inhofe to make this objection. The only person in the entire U.S. House of Representatives who might undertake such an objection would be Congressman Ron Paul. I highly recommend everyone read Edwin’s column or listen to it in the audio section and then call Sen. Inhofe and Ron Paul’s district offices. Request they file a written objection to the vote by the electoral college delegates.

A substantial number of Americans, thanks to the Internet, are aware of the citizenship controversy: December 16, 2008. “Obama citizenship issue has merit, AOL poll says. Nation seeks answers to questions about president-elect’s eligibility. In all, 32 states agree that there could be merit to the Obama citizenship controversy.” Don’t think for a second that all these efforts are a waste of time. They are not. Obama is going down, it’s just a matter of time.

The birth certificate issue

Obama has refused to provide a real, long form birth certificate. The short form image he produced in June 2007, is a forgery. There’s no question in my mind at this point in time. You can view this document here. Please note the race of Obama’s mother: Caucasian. Then note the race of Obama’s father: African. He was born in Kenya. Have you ever seen Africa listed as a race before? A “geographical race” can be listed as Africa, but for birth certificates, I can find none that list Africa or United States as a race - except Obama’s. Why isn’t his mother’s race listed as United States? There are caucasians born on the continent of Africa, but would they be listed as Africa under race? Hardly.

Obama refuses to release any other documents being held by the State of Hawaii. Obama didn’t have any problem when it came to the confirmation of Chief Justice John Roberts (emphasis mine): “Let me also say that I remain distressed that the White House during this confirmation process, which overall went smoothly, failed to provide critical documents as part of the record that could have provided us with a better basis to make our judgment with respect to the nomination.”

This isn’t about privacy for Obama, it’s about lies and lots of them. I have several Freedom of Information Act and State Records Act requests outstanding. I will continue to fight to get the documents I want — especially the ones from the U.S. State Department who have simply ignored my FOIAs altogether at this point. Why? Because I know Obama has been lying about his life for decades. The American people have the right to know the truth - the whole truth.

Citizenship qualification under the U.S. Constitution

The foolish people who work for the mainstream media and that includes cable news networks (CNN, MSNBC, FOX) have either excoriated anyone who believes a candidate running for president of these united States of America must prove his citizenship, or have completely ignored this issue, aren’t even worth commenting on any longer. These networks and their anchors are nothing but a disgrace to their profession.

Obots (Obama faithful) continue to say it doesn’t matter that Obama’s father was foreign born and governed by Britain. They parrot because Obama’s mother, Stanley Ann Dunham, was a natural born citizen at birth, that automatically qualifies Obama as natural born at birth. Nothing could be further from the truth. On FactCheck.org, the official mouth piece for Obama, you will see this statement:

“When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British colony, still part of the United Kingdom’s dwindling empire. As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.‘s children.”

If you read (or listen) to the Wong Kim Ark case cited above, this is the case in a nutshell. Wong Kim Ark, was a young Chinese man born in San Francisco, California. His parents were subjects of the Emperor of China even though they were permanently domiciled in California. Ark left the U.S. for a short period of time for a visit to China. Upon his return, he was denied entry back into the U.S. because he was not a natural born citizen at birth. This was challenged in the U.S. Supreme Court.

The justices gave this case a thorough, historical scrubbing and in the end their decision was against Wong Kim Ark: “<>In other words, the fourteenth amendment does not exclude from citizenship by birth children born in the United States of parents permanently located therein, and who might themselves become citizens; nor, on the other hand, does it arbitrarily make citizens of children born in the United States of parents who, according to the will of their native government and of this government, are and must remain aliens. Tested by this rule, Wong Kim Ark never became and is not a citizen of the United States, and the order of the district court should be reversed.

The justices go into great detail about the Fourteenth Amendment as it relates to this issue as well as treaties. Obama’s mother was born in the U.S. There is no disputing that fact. His father was Kenyan born. Obots claim that Obama never gave up his citizenship either as a result of his father being foreign born or when his mother married Lolo Soetoro. The Wong Kim Ark case covered that argument as well:

‘That said Wong Kim Ark has not, either by himself or his parents acting for him, ever renounced his allegiance to the United States, and that he has never done or committed any act or thing to exclude him therefrom.’

That argument proved fruitless as the court ruled against Wong Kim Ark.

Is there other historical material on this? A considerable amount which is found on Leo Donofrio’s web site which I have put on audio with his permission, i.e,:

“I’ll leave you now with the relevant textbook definition of natural born citizen. The following was published in 1758. This definition, added to all of the above, certainly establishes a rational legal basis to hold that Barack Obama is not a natural born Citizen. And more than that, it puts the burden on those who deny it to don the tin foil hat of despair and bring forthwith to the table of honest debate their own bed of authority to lie in:

§ 212. Citizens and natives.

“The citizens are the members of the civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens. As the society cannot exist and perpetuate itself otherwise than by the children of the citizens, those children naturally follow the condition of their fathers, and succeed to all their rights. The society is supposed to desire this, in consequence of what it owes to its own preservation; and it is presumed, as matter of course, that each citizen, on entering into society, reserves to his children the right of becoming members of it. The country of the fathers is therefore that of the children; and these become true citizens merely by their tacit consent. We shall soon see whether, on their coming to the years of discretion, they may renounce their right, and what they owe to the society in which they were born. I say, that, in order to be of the country, it is necessary that a person be born of a father who is a citizen; for, if he is born there of a foreigner, it will be only the place of his birth, and not his country.”

Obots are very passionate about their support of this man who has sealed up his life tight as Scrooge. Obama slaps his supporters in the face with each passing day by refusing to address this issue other than spending a whopping one million dollars to date to fight the exposure of all his lies. But, what can one expect since Obama’s base is Chicago, Illinois, a state that has produced some of the most corrupt elected officials in this history of this country.

Regular readers of my columns know that I sent a great deal of information to James Burrus, Chief of Election Fraud at the FBI in Washington, DC. I respectfully requested Burrus investigate Obama for violation of 18 U.S.C. §1343, wire fraud, for starters. In no uncertain terms, I told Burrus that Obama has always known he was not constitutionally eligible to be president of these united States of America, yet he still hustled for campaign donations in violation of the cited statute. Obama decided to gamble and use his massive power and influence to flim flam the American people. I’m sending this column and a CD to Burrus over night mail. The CD contains all five parts I just recorded (see first paragraph above). I am going to reinforce to Burrus that he must, if he hasn’t already, open an investigation into the criminal activities of Barack Hussein Obama.

Many believe Obama will be implicated in the Gov. Blagojevich mess. Many believe Rezko has been singing, but not about Obama. Why?

April 28, 2008. Witness: ‘Patrick Fitzgerald would be terminated’

“Tony Rezko associate Elie Maloof (pictured above, right) just testified that when he received a grand jury subpoena, Rezko told him not to talk to the feds. Why?

“The federal prosecutor will no longer be the same federal prosecutor,” Maloof just testified that Rezko told him. What did Rezko mean prosecutor Chris Niewoehner asked? “That Patrick Fitzgerald would be terminated and Dennis Hastert will name his replacement. The investigation will be over.”

“Maloof, who once helped run some of Rezko’s fast-food businesses, said Rezko told him of Fitzgerald’s replacement: “That they will order the prosecutor to stop the investigation. It is the first time jurors heard an accusation that Rezko worked behind the scenes to oust Fitzgerald.”

The only thing one can say is that whole cabal out there in Chicago, including Obama, puts the mafia to shame. These people wallow in corruption like pigs. They lie, cheat and steal until they get caught. I’ve received a slew of emails from Americans who live in Illinois. They celebrated when Blago was arrested and are now praying the long arm of the law gets the rest of the crooks. If Obama is sworn into office, he will use the Department of Justice to “make it all go away.”

Should impostor president, Obama, be sworn in January 20, 2009, it will be one of the darkest days for America. The U.S. Supreme Court has demonstrated they are too cowardly to take on the monumental decision of declaring Obama ineligible for the office of president. The political machines, RNC and DNC, have refused to address this valid issue. Most of the American people don’t have a clue because the newspapers in this country are as corrupt as Congress. However, the millions of us who do know the truth will continue our efforts until the pressure becomes so great, Obama is removed from office. Not by impeachment, because he was never legally qualified as Edwin Vieira points out in his legal analysis.

As I said in a recent column: Any and all negative consequences will be the responsibility of Obama and him alone, because he is the one who has lied and cheated his way into the White House. Obama won’t be the first mulatto president, he’ll be the first who is driven from office in shame and/or he is indicted for crimes, i.e., wire fraud. Yes, I am aware that he will unlawfully appoint a new Attorney General, however, there are good people in the FBI who will not turn a blind eye to what’s going on. Nixon was brought down by a cover up and so will Obama.

Of course, this brings even more legal headaches. I am not an attorney, so this is simply my opinion. Biden would not automatically become president. Because Obama knowingly and with criminal intent perpetrated a fraud upon the American people when he declared his candidacy, his selection of a VP candidate would be meaningless as it was an element of the fraud. Additionally, as Edwin pointed out in his column, any legislation signed by Obama into law which brings a criminal indictment would open the flood gates to challenges. If Obama signed another one of these unconstitutional “hate crime” laws and Joe Smith is charged, he can and must use as his defense the fact that Obama is an impostor and has no authority to sign such legislation into law.

You might use printer friendly below and send this column to your member of Congress (House and Senate) today. Just put it in an envelope and send it to one of their district offices. A few million should do the trick. Forget email, those offices get hundreds of thousands of them and use form responses. Forget sending it to DC. It’s quicker and local staff will pass a hard copy along to the boss. Let Congress know that when they meet on January 6, 2009, they have the power to stop this flim flam man from taking office and if they don’t, the legal quagmire and rage will simply escalate.

Obama names Holdren, Lubchenco to science posts

Filed under: Uncategorized — Tags: , — admin @ 8:06 am

yahoo news

WASHINGTON – President-elect Barack Obama on Saturday named Harvard physicist John Holdren and marine biologist Jane Lubchenco to top science posts, signaling a change from Bush administration policies on global warming that were criticized for putting politics over science.

Both Holdren and Lubchenco are leading experts on climate change who have advocated forceful government response. Holdren will become Obama’s science adviser as director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy; Lubchenco will lead the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, which oversees ocean and atmospheric studies and does much of the government’s research on global warming.

Holdren also will direct the president’s Council of Advisers on Science and Technology. Joining him as co-chairs will be Nobel Prize-winning scientist Harold Varmus, a former director of the National Institutes of Health, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor Eric Lander, a specialist in human genome research.

“From landing on the moon, to sequencing the human genome, to inventing the Internet, America has been the first to cross that new frontier because we had leaders who paved the way,” Obama said in announcing his selections in his weekly radio address. “Leaders who not only invested in our scientists, but who respected the integrity of the scientific process.”

“Because the truth is that promoting science isn’t just about providing resources — it’s about protecting free and open inquiry. It’s about ensuring that facts and evidence are never twisted or obscured by politics or ideology,” he said. “I could not have a better team to guide me in this work.”

In their posts, the four scientists will confront challenges in global warming after years of inaction by the Bush administration, which opposed mandatory cuts of greenhouse gas pollution. Last year, former Surgeon General Richard Carmona testified to Congress that top Bush administration officials often dismissed global warming as a “liberal cause” and sought to play down public health reports out of political considerations.

Since 1993, summer Arctic sea ice has lost the equivalent of Alaska, California and Texas, and global warming is accelerating. The amount of carbon dioxide in Earth’s atmosphere has already pushed past the level some scientists say is safe.

Holdren, 64, is a former president of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Washington who has pushed for more urgent action on global warming. As Obama’s top science adviser, he would manage about 40 Ph.D-level experts who help shape and communicate science and technology policy.

Colleagues say the post is well-suited for Holdren, who at Harvard went from battling the spread of nuclear weapons to tackling the threat of global warming. He’s an award-laden scientist comfortable in many different fields.

“Global warming is a misnomer. It implies something gradual, something uniform, something quite possibly benign, and what we’re experiencing is none of those,” Holdren said a year ago in a speech at Harvard. “There is already widespread harm … occurring from climate change. This is not just a problem for our children and our grandchildren.”

Lubchenco, an Oregon State University professor specializing in overfishing and climate change, will be the first woman to head NOAA. A member of the Pew Oceans Commission, Lubchenco has recommended steps to overcome crippling damage to the world’s oceans from overfishing and pollution and has expressed optimism for change once President George W. Bush leaves office.

“The Bush administration has not been respectful of the science,” she said earlier this year. “But I think that’s not true of Republicans in general. I know it’s not. I am very much looking forward to a new administration that does respect scientific information and that considers it very seriously in making environmental policies.”

Varmus, who was a co-recipient of the Nobel Prize for his research on the causes of cancer, served as National Institutes of Health director during the Clinton administration. A former medical professor at the University of California, San Francisco, he helped found the Ralph Lauren Center for Cancer Care and Prevention and chairs a scientific board at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

Lander, who teaches at both MIT and Harvard, founded the Whitehead Institute-MIT Center for Genome Research in 1990, which became part of the Broad Institute in 2003. A leading researcher in the Human Genome Project, he and his colleagues are using the findings to explore the molecular mechanisms behind human disease.

In his radio address, Obama said he planned early next year to more closely address the issue of engaging the nation’s technology community to “harness technology and innovation to create jobs, enhance America’s competitiveness and advance our national priorities.”

“It’s time we once again put science at the top of our agenda and worked to restore America’s place as the world leader in science and technology,” he said.

BREAKING NEWS: Gates Warns Against TESTING Obama

Filed under: Truth News — Tags: , , — admin @ 2:29 pm

MANAMA, Bahrain — Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates warned Saturday that foreign powers should not try to “test” President-elect Barack Obama with a crisis in his first months in office and that Mr. Obama remained committed to the security of the Persian Gulf and American interests in the region.

Mr. Gates, speaking at a conference on regional security here, said that Mr. Obama and his advisers had done more extensive planning across the government for the transition than at any time he could remember and asserted that they would therefore be prepared from day one. Mr. Gates, who is staying on as Defense secretary, has worked for seven presidents. Mr. Obama will be his eighth.

After leaving Bahrain, Mr. Gates made an unannounced visit to Iraq, The Associated Press reported.

“So anyone who thought that the upcoming months might present opportunities to ‘test’ the new president would be sorely mistaken,” Mr. Gates said at the conference. “President Obama and his national security team, myself included, will be ready to defend the interests of the United States and our friends and allies from the moment he takes office on January 20.”

Mr. Gates was alluding to remarks made in the final days of this year’s presidential campaign by Mr. Obama’s running mate, Senator Joseph R. Biden Jr., Democrat of Delaware, who told supporters at a Seattle fundraiser in October that the world’s leaders would test Mr. Obama’s mettle as a young president, just as they did John F. Kennedy. Mr. Obama’s Republican opponent, Senator John McCain, pounced on the remark and opened a new line of criticism from Republicans that Mr. Obama was not ready for the presidency…
