An enthusiastic crowd filled the auditorium earlier today.  Thousands of cheering fans sat eagerly on  their seat, anticipating,…. and then the moment came.  President Ted Cruz stepped onto the stage to resounding applause and announced:

“Capital Gains Taxes are impacting the capacity of our economy to expand; therefore effective tomorrow I’m instructing the IRS to cease and desist any collection or enforcement efforts in that regard.

Effective immediately businesses and individuals can, if they choose, discontinue filing capital gains incomes on their quarterly income tax returns. My administration will make no efforts to punish for non-payment.

However, congress can avoid such an executive order if they will simply send me a repeal bill for any and all corporate and individual capital gains revenue”.

Does it Sound ridiculous? Does it sound like something that might send Democrats and the media into 24/7 news cycles as they debate a constitutional crisis?

Imagine for a moment U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron delivering a speech at a U.S. university, while attending a global summit in the U.S. hosted by President Obama.
Imagine Mr. Cameron taking to the stage of the university and orating how the current administration holds no value toward the founding fathers of the U.S. Constitution.
Further imagine how it would be received if Mr. Cameron’s guest speech was about how nationalized socialistic healthcare, specifically ObamaCare, was corrosive and destructive to the foundational principles of our Republic.  Or if how Obama’s refusal to allow the Keystone pipeline was indicative of his communistic tendencies.

If that were ever to happen the professional left, and the U.S. administration, would be apoplectic with anger at the arrogance of such an undiplomatic and uncouth display.  It’s easy to imagine Chris Matthews shouting about how such an event would be ill-mannered and intentionally embarrassing the President.
However, that level of imaginary arrogance wasn’t imaginary this past weekend.  That is exactly what President Obama did while attending the G20 Summit in Brisbane Australia. (more…)

…Meanwhile Dove Obama asks Putin for permission to remove Assad.  Well, no, not really – maybe… um, with sprinkles.

BRISBANE (G20) – Stephen Harper told Russian President Vladimir Putin flatly that he needs “to get out of Ukraine,” when the two met at a Group of 20 summit of major economies in Brisbane.
A spokesman for the Canadian Prime Minister relayed the details of the encounter and, according to director of communications Jason MacDonald, “Mr. Putin did not respond positively.” (more…)

ST. LOUIS, MO (KTVI) – Attorneys for Michael Brown’s parents are reacting to police  radio calls from the day their son was shot and killed by Ferguson Officer Darren Wilson. The police dispatch recordings were obtained by St. Louis Post-Dispatch. The new  recordings have not changed the family’s opinion about how the Ferguson police department responded that fateful day.

Mike Brown Jr’s parents returned to St. Louis Friday night. Before they or their lawyers were aware the St. Louis Post Dispatch  released Ferguson police radio calls and surveillance video of Officer Darren Wilson who fired the fatal shots.  The family’s attorney noted, “From the video released today it would appear the initial descriptions of his (Officer Wilson’s) injuries were exaggerated.” (more…)

The important aspect to this Buzzfeed story is not Über rising to say how wonderful ObamaCare is for their business model.  The important aspect is revealing, yet again, the insufferable biases within media outlets.
Against an avalanche of newly fueled Gruber ObamaCare sunlight, the far-left moonbats are trying to find ways to point out the glory of ObamaCare despite the fact it was constructed around lies and falsehoods.   In essence, and as typical, ‘the ends justify the means’.
Into this need steps the media enterprise Buzzfeed.  A quasi-journalistic source of social media and current event information which passes itself off as ‘journalism’.   Buzzfeed starts off with this paragraph:

The CEO of Uber said Friday that Obamacare has played a crucial role for his army of drivers, an unusual, partial endorsement of the president’s signature policy from a man often cast as a hero of anti-government libertarianism.

The rest of the article is explaining how.
Wow, a company benefitting from ObamaCare and willing to take a policy and strategic media approach to announce as such…… Or is there something missing.  (more…)

About a decade ago, as the millennial generation entered the workforce, we noted the “everyone deserves a trophy” view was leading directly to a very specific vision of liberal utopia.
As the years have “progressed” the ideology has mainstreamed to a fevered pitch.  The overarching Marxist ideology -born within the think tank branches of the Frankfurt School- was finally dropping the ripened fruit.

In New York, Mayor Bloomberg knows better: you don’t need Soda, Donuts or Salt;  Michelle Obama knows what your kids need in their lunches;  Barack Obama and Jonathan Gruber know what healthcare you deserve…. the entire ideological spectrum of fellow travelers look down upon the proletariat:  “all your children are belong to us“.
By 2009 the domestic team was assembled.  Regulatory Czar, Cass Sunstein, was appointed by the head of the organization to synergize the various constructs:
♦ The EPA would control your energy use  ♦ the FDA would advance upon your food/beverage allowances ♦ the Dept of Education would adjust the generational indoctrination principles to reflect the modern advances, and the need to move the goalposts further away from traditional values.
Banking and Finance sectors would be regulated to insure effective Social Engineering was possible;  HHS would insure healthcare apportionment was under full regime control, meanwhile the DOJ would be utilized the insure compliance.
In order to insure the required electoral groups stayed asleep – the principles of dependency would simultaneously be expanded.   This was essentially paying off the electorate for allowing the constructs to continue.   Pullet lever – get pellet.
Any non-conforming entity was viewed as a risk. (more…)

LITMUS TEST !!!   Enough is Enough

WESTMINSTER — An unruly public hearing on a proposal to prohibit the sale of tobacco products came to a sudden and rowdy halt Wednesday evening after shouting and clapping opponents of the ban repeatedly refused the chairwoman’s request to come to order.

The ban, proposed by the Board of Health in this Central Massachusetts town, would be the first of its kind in the state. It has led to angry reactions from residents who worry that it will hurt the local economy and allow government too much discretion in controlling private conduct.
“This is about freedom; it’s my body and it’s my choice to smoke,” said Nate Johnson, 32, a Westminster farmer and auto body worker. He was puffing on a cigarette at a rally before the hearing where opponents held signs saying “It’s not about tobacco — it’s about control” and “Smoke ’em if you got them.” (more…)

A person could write lengthy paragraphs digging into the mindset of those who cannot fathom an innocent person being allowed to continue being innocent.   However, in the final analysis you end in a place where you recognize generations of appeased dependency have given rise to a societal construct unwilling, and unable, to conceive of their demands not being appeased. 
Personally, I prefer to allow the groups’ ideological views to speak for themselves.  (Pictured here):

(Reuters) – Activists protesting the fatal shooting in August of an unarmed black teen by a white policeman expressed anger on Saturday after the city’s police chief told local media the officer could return to work if a grand jury does not to charge him criminally.
The St. Louis suburb of Ferguson, which saw weeks of sometimes violent protests following the Aug. 9 shooting, is on edge as a grand jury decides whether the officer, Darren Wilson, will face charges for the shooting of Michael Brown.
Wilson would likely be fired if he is indicted, but could immediately return to duty if he is not, Ferguson Police Chief Tom Jackson told St. Louis broadcaster KSDK, adding that he had not spoken with Wilson to know if he wanted to rejoin the department. (more…)
