Solyndra Scandal, Newsweek Magazine, and Mainstream Media Failure
Last week, Newsweek Magazine endorsed Barack Hussein Obama.
With the cover pronouncing Obama’s detractors as “dumb,” the magazine ignored the many questions and criticisms of Obama that Americans have, not the least of which is the Solyndra scandal.
Using a billion dollars of taxpayer money to enrich Obama campaign donors, the Obama Administration funded Solyndra with your tax money, knowing full well it was a no-go. Now, Solyndra executives are handing out bonuses , even as the company slips into oblivion. God forbid that they return to the American taxpayer whatever money they have left…and if neither the Obama Administration nor the mainstream media news outlets, like Newsweek, can criticize it nor find fault, then we have the greatest evidence of media complicity in American history.
Mainstream media complicity in covering up scandals in the Clinton and Obama administrations is well documented, and now we’ve got yet one more example today. Newsweek Magazine has no shame, and no pretense at being journalistic. Instead, Newsweek Magazine is completely dedicated to the promotion of one political party and one side of the political continuum.
Happy New Year 2012, Guaranteed!
2012 begins in a few hours.
And what’s exciting to many Americans is that 2012 marks the end of the Obama Experiment.
So many Americans invested in the hokey “hope and change” snake oil, and as New Jersey governor Chris Christie said, four years later America remains hopeless and changeless. Obama has done well at luxurious taxpayer funded vacations, but he has remained aloof and immature throughout his tenure. His greatest distinction is to have become “Divider in Chief,” due to his class warfare methods that pit Americans against Americans.
Watch as Obama gets voted out and the economy turns around in weeks. So here’s to a happy new year, everyone!
Islamic terrorism becomes “workplace violence”
Two weeks ago, the Obama Administration committed a blatant act of political correctness.
While it is probably not surprising in itself, the degree of this particular effort to scrub the news and shield Islam from criticism hasn’t passed anyone’s sniff test, not on the left and certainly not on the right.
Recall that in 2009, U.S. Army major Nidal Hasan gunned down dozens of his fellow American soldiers at Fort Hood. Those soldiers had all been disarmed by the base commander, who did not believe that soldiers should be armed while on the base. Thus, they were sitting ducks for Hasan’s rampage. Hasan did not believe in following the base commander’s rules.
Hasan, a Muslim, was inspired by now-dead Muslim leader al-Awlaki, another Muslim American who turned against the United States.
So, what exactly about this act of terrorism is “workplace violence”?
The answer is: Zero. Nothing. Zippo.
This mass murder committed by yet another clear-headed Muslim following the explicit dictates of his religion is terrorism; it’s the best example of Islamic terrorism in America that you can find in the news since the 2001 Twin Towers attack.
But ever since he became president, Barack Hussein Obama has made it his life’s purpose and mission to protect, advance, uplift, shelter, explain, and promote Islam at all cost. Examples of Obama’s pro-Islam cause range all the way from “my Muslim faith” slip (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMUgNg7aD8M), to his speech in Cairo, his anti-Israel policies, his attempt to turn NASA into an Islamic program, to now his attempt to whitewash Hasan’s crime.
Hasan’s Islamic rage isn’t workplace violence, it is jihad terrorism that is a problem around the globe. And making matters worse is America’s politically correct effort to turn the U.S. military and federal bureaucracy into places especially friendly to Muslims, and especially radical orthodox Muslims who openly advocate for the destruction of Western civilization. Somehow, some Americans believe that tolerating intolerance demonstrates their best qualities, indicating their ultimate open-mindedness.
Thankfully, the vast majority of Americans see through this dangerous foolishness. Hopefully, by 2012 this egregious behavior by Barack Hussein Obama will have inspired millions of Americans to vote in a new president, a president who believes in the America that has existed for over 200 years, not the politically correct America set on self-destruct by Obama and his friends.

Pennsylvania Hunters: Army of The Republic
Pennsylvania Hunters: Freedom’s Bulwark
By Josh First
Like it or not, the Obama administration’s failed gun-running scheme, “Fast and Furious,” is viewed by tens of millions of Americans as the tip of the administration’s ice berg aimed at sinking the American tradition of gun ownership.
You’d only be kidding yourself if you stated that the Obama administration supports Second Amendment rights. This administration has done everything it can to hamstring legal gun ownership. Growing up in Central Pennsylvania, where Democrats strenuously, overwhelmingly, even defiantly promoted Second Amendment rights, it saddens me to see the party having lost so much ground on this issue. To tens of millions of Americans, with many regional exceptions across rural Pennsylvania, that political party increasingly represents a direct threat to the greatest Constitutional right we have, the one right that guarantees all the others.
Last week marked the beginning of another two-week Pennsylvania deer hunting season, using firearms, and about 750,000 licensed hunters are afield here during this time, down from a high of over one million twenty years ago.
Every year I am one of these licensed hunters, toting around a Remington 700 BDL in .30-06 in our steep, majestic mountains. It is extremely accurate out to hundreds of yards and it has taken countless deer, and one bear, when called upon at a second’s notice. Its open sights are designed to acquire the target quickly.
Having my rifle across my shoulder, cradled in my arms, slung over my back, clutched in my hand, or at my shoulder, ready to fire, is one of the most natural and comforting feelings I know. Along with my beautiful custom hunting knife made by John Johnson (JRJ knives, in Perry County) and bullet wallet on my belt, and a pack on my back containing food, water, drag rope, and survival essentials, I feel as ready to hunt as Oetzi the Snow Man of the Alps felt the day he died while hunting over 5,000 years ago. As we modern humans are essentially dolled-up Pleistocene hunter-gatherers in fancy clothes, it is as natural a feeling as a human can have. It is who we are at our core, like it or not.
Like many guys out there now, I enjoy hunting alone, stealthily reconnoitering remote cliffs and washes, or with one or two other friends stalking independently of one another, knowing that any of one us could connect with our quarry, or bump them to a buddy. About a zillion years of programming goes into this heightened sense of anticipation and satisfaction when it happens. Until a hundred and fifty years ago, failing to kill a deer meant the family went to sleep hungry, so there should be no surprise that successful hunting evokes the strongest feelings of pride, and happiness. Eating and living to see another day is pretty much the happiest thing a person can do. Today, we just take it for granted, and contract out the inconvenient killing to a hitman, more or less.
However, most of my deer and bear hunting is spent in the company of many friends, Democrats, Republicans, Independents, Disaffected. As we move around and across the landscape, carefully coordinating with one another in long lines designed to drive game forward and to stay out of one another’s shooting lanes, I am re-amazed every year at the proficiency with which our guys move across that rough terrain, at the way they safely handle their high powered rifles, at the way that they snap that rifle to their shoulder and kill a far-off deer in only a second or two, before the window of opportunity closes. These folks are shooters, serious, excellent woodsmen. Focused. Formidable. Impressive. I’m proud to be among such company.
These are real men out there, and real women, challenging themselves to succeed in ways that most modern humans have no idea about, sadly. However, there is another group out there that can somewhat relate to how we live during this period, and that is the men and women in combat uniform.
If Pennsylvania hunters were an army, they would be the fifth largest in the world behind China, North Korea, India, Russia and the United States, the last of which has an army only fractionally made of actual shooters. Although I did not receive military training, and although most of my experience with firearms has been rooted in hunting and target shooting, my attitude about my right to own an assortment of firearms is pretty damned militant. And that same attitude is shared among the other 749,999 licensed hunters here, not to mention the other few million Pennsylvanians who stopped hunting years ago but who retain homes full of firearms and bullets. We are a bulwark of freedom, a silent army that need not say anything nor give word to what it represents. Its shadow is faint but long.
In that context, and in the shadow of “Fast and Furious,” one of the thoughts that repeatedly crossed my mind over the past few weeks in our beautiful mountains was, “Mr. Obama, if you want our guns, then come and take ‘em. Really, give it a try, pal.”
It ain’t happening. Our army is bigger than yours.
Obama administration’s corruption headed for investigation
Solyndra money laundering with taxpayer dollars, Homeland Security policies of catch-and-release of dangerous illegal aliens…all are coming home to roost after years of White House stonewalling. The subpoenas are flying.
Barack Hussein Obama promised Americans the most transparent, most accountable, most open administration in American history. Instead, he has behaved in the most concealed, corrupt way possible.
If the past is any indication of the future, a special investigator will have to be appointed to sort out the cycle of taxpayer money grants to Solyndra and many other partisan organizations, which then give their money to their partisan foot soldiers, who then go out and proclaim the Obama administration’s agenda.

Media lynching of Cain under way
Herman Cain is now being publicly lynched by Joy Behar, the Washington Post, and other mainstream establishment media.
Allegations of unwanted advances, long long ago resolved with big pay-outs, are now the media’s silver bullet to kill Cain’s political candidacy.
What a joke.
First, these are the same media sources, reporters, and personalities who ignored Bill Clinton’s many many indiscretions. And who more recently refused to investigate Barack Hussein Obama’s radical, racist, and corrupt background.
These establishment media sources, and their politically partisan partners in advocacy groups and academia, pooh-pooh every indiscretion, coverup, and corrupt act by the politicians they support.
The same reporters and political activists who accused all criticism of Obama as “racism.” Now they actually accuse Cain of being racist for having different political views. What hypocrites. What obviously partisan phonies they are. Their criticism of Cain is phony.
So, Herman Cain, I stand with you, and so will all of your other supporters. This phase of your campaign is just a blip generated by partisan enemies of America.
Herman Cain is my kind of candidate
Herman Cain, an experienced businessman who does not run away from a tough debate, is looking more and more like my man to be my next American President.
Smart, articulate, quick-witted, creative, Cain brings the fight to the other corner of the boxing ring.
And he would be America’s first African-American president. Obama is America’s first African president. Cain is the real-deal, a real descendant of slaves brought from Africa to America 300 years ago. As an American, that means a lot to me. Cain demonstrates the possibility that awaits anyone who wants to take risks and succeed.
Cain inspires and motivates me, and I’m weighing my next steps with his campaign. Won’t you please join me?
Obama’s gaffes are fun. Jewish janitors? Intercontinental railroad? More, more!
