Yesterday President Stompy Feet posed for his latest national portrait.   Today the park service admits they were told to inflict the maximum public pain during the government shutdown.  Also today, the Border Patrol reveals they have been told to “Stand Down” and ignore border crossings.
All of this why?
Because the actual truth is people are awakening to the reality that most of the federal government is *non essential*; and, quite frankly, we can just do without them.  THAT is the real risk to sellers of BIG government.   It’s the same visible reality that stemmed from the ‘sequester cuts’ which, despite all the protestations to the contrary, really don’t have impact.   That’s the real issue.

Still Dancing….

And so we enter Day #4 of the federal shutdown with the media still gnashing it’s horrible teeth determined to frame the horrid Republican Anarchists, Terrorists, jihadists.   But the electorate continue to defy the media demands.

Tea Party extremists caused this #BoehnerShutdown. Tell @SpeakerBoehner to end it now: http://t.co/hLq6qOd2lM pic.twitter.com/WW4soKEibu

CBS Polling shows when the government shut down back in November 1995, 51 percent of Americans blamed the Republicans in Congress, while 28 blamed President Bill Clinton.
And what are those numbers today? 44% blame GOP, 35% blame Obama, and 17% blame both.  Imagine what the polling would be if the media reporting was neutral.
But the media was able to find an OFA organizer who signed up for Obamacare.  Only there was one little issue they didn’t share.  His premium TRIPLED. (more…)

Yesterday we shared how POTUS was angry, and gave examples of his “stompy feet” mentality.   However, it’s gotten worse…. much worse.

President Obama gave an interview to CNBC (financial news) you must watch this video and recognize what he’s doing here.   He is intentionally talking down the stock market and the financial sector:

There are efforts to *hide* this video – so if you can’t play it on site GO HERE
We are traditionally programed to believe our President acts, and speaks, in the best interests of our nation.   Therefore it is jaw dropping to actually bear witness to a sitting U.S. President intentionally drumming up FEAR and ANXIETY. (more…)

Comment Via Michellc – I’ve been witnessing my neighbors and fellow citizens having their worlds turned upside down due to Obama regulations and policies; and I haven’t heard much sympathy coming from him or Washington, but now federal employees are losing a few weeks pay and the violins come pouring out.

Ya know, I don’t think there is a more apropos reflection of this President is tarnishing the office he holds.

President Stompy Feet told Democrats to kill veterans funding, keep World War 2 Memorial closed so he doesn't lose face.
Angry yet?

As President Barack Obama’s signature Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act enters the all-important sign-up phase next week, the president finds himself with some of the lowest approval ratings of his presidency even as Republicans in an unpopular Congress maneuver to block the health-care legislation from taking effect.
A Reuters-Ipsos poll of 1,729 Americans taken Sept. 20-24 found only 39 percent of those surveyed approve of the job Obama is doing as president, while 55 percent disapprove.

The Reuters-Ipsos poll found that 22 percent of those responding thought the country was headed in the right direction, while 64 percent thought it was on the wrong track. (link)

This is well worth 9 minutes of your time. Mark Levin talks to Jake Tapper on CNN:

We’ve often talked about the marked similarity between these trying times and the similarities to the time just prior to the awakening in Poland which spurred the Solidarity Movement.
Indeed, in Poland then, just like in the U.S. now, the media was selling one central planning script yet a divergent reality existed in the street – amid the people.
It took the people of Poland to actually walk into the street and recognize they had been fooled. They thought for years their individual desires for freedom and smaller government put them in the minority.  Individually they each believed their government was operating with the consent of the governed.  However, they were wrong.
Once the ordinary citizen made the decision to take to the street they recognized their views and perspectives were actually held in the majority. The media was merely selling a guise on behalf of the centralized governing body. (more…)

This really is no surprise.  We have well documented how the average Egyptian held disdain for President Obama based on the reality that Obama supported the Muslim Brotherhood and Morsi; while Morsi was slaughtering Christians, taking over the courts, and even allowing Christian crucifixions to take place immediately outside his residence.
The average Egyptian does not welcome political Islam, terrorists, Jihadists and extremists.   They have tasted freedom and like the people in Western Libya they are not going to accept Salafist dictates and Sharia type governance;  all of which were supported by the insufferable duplicity and willful blindness of Senator John McCain, Secretary Hillary Clinton, Secretary John Kerry and the entire Obama administration. 
So this recent example of the Egyptian sentiment should be expected.  –  Egypt’s Foreign Minister Nabil Fahmy told the London-based Al-Hayat daily that Egyptian relations with the U.S. were “turbulent” and the Egyptian public has “unprecedented negative views” toward the United States. (more…)

A few things become concerning with the information coming out.   At the top of that list comes the fact most of the terrorists *travelled to* the country to carry out the attack passing through multiple security levels.
New York Times […]  The building’s blueprints were studied, down to the ventilation ducts. The attack was rehearsed and the team dispatched, slipping undetected through Kenya’s porous borders, often patrolled by underpaid — and deeply corrupt — border guards.

A day or two before the attack, powerful belt-fed machine guns were secretly stashed in a shop in the mall with the help of a colluding employee, officials say. At least one militant had even packed a change of clothes so he could slip out with fleeing civilians after the killings were done. (more…)
