Obama calls ‘entrepreneurship summit’ with Muslims
Mar 5 03:47 PM US/Eastern
The White House on Friday announced a “summit on entrepreneurship” to build economic ties with the Islamic world, part of President Barack Obama’s outreach to Muslims.The White House said it has invited participants from more than 40 countries over five continents for the April 26-27 conference in Washington.

“The summit will highlight the role entrepreneurship can play in addressing common challenges while building partnerships that will lead to greater opportunity abroad and at home,” White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said.

Obama first spoke of the entrepreneurship conference in his signature June 4 speech in Cairo to the Islamic world.

In the closely watched address, Obama said the United States was seeking a “new beginning” with the Islamic world to rebuild relations that had sharply deteriorated over the past decade.

Obama promised at the time that he would convene a “presidential summit on entrepreneurship” by the end of 2009.

He said that the meeting would “identify how we can deepen ties between business leaders, foundations and social entrepreneurs in the United States and Muslim communities around the world.”

The American people are tired of Government health care being force on them

Thursday, February 25th, 2010

The health care sham conference being held by The Obama and Congress is just another dog and pony show. Seniors and families with children should be sick and tired of the push for government health care.  Only the most uninformed still support the failed future of government health care. Anyone doing any research will seem that government health care will damage and ruin the current health care in the U.S. and replace it with a failed model of government control. Seniors and future Seniors have the most to lose and should be making their views very clear to Congress.

 

Washington (CNN) – Although the overall health care reform bills passed by the House of Representatives and the Senate are unpopular, many of the provisions in the existing bills are extremely popular, even among Republicans, according to a new national poll.

A CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey released Wednesday also indicates that only a quarter of the public want Congress to stop all work on health care, with nearly three quarters saying lawmakers should pass some kind of reform.   25 percent of people questioned in the poll say Congress should pass legislation similar to the bills passed by both chambers, with 48 percent saying lawmakers should work on an entirely new bill and a quarter saying Congress should stop all work on health care reform. The survey indicates nearly 4 in 10 Democrats saying Congress should start from scratch and just 1 in 10 saying lawmakers should stop all work on health care.  A majority of Republicans questioned, 54 percent, want Congress to start from scratch, with just under 4 in 10 saying lawmakers should halt work on health care reform. 

52 percent of Independents want Congress to start work on a new bill, with 27 percent saying lawmakers should stop all work, and 18 percent saying that the current legislation should be passed into law.

The CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll was conducted February 12-15, with 1,023 adult Americans questioned by telephone. The survey’s sampling error is plus or minus 3 percentage points for the overall survey.

May be CNN should run a pool on Congress working on JOBS vs Health care.

A new election slogan, “A future fair for all” — due to be officially unveiled by Prime Minister Gordon Brown.

Sunday, February 21st, 2010

“Obama better understood community organization and peer-to-peer communication than any recent candidate and we are applying that lesson.”

He said Labour had made 400,000 voter contacts in marginal seats since the start of the year — double the number of such contacts in the 2005 election – using software that allows party members to set up phone banks in their homes to contact voters and build a relationship with them.

Revealing a new election slogan, “A future fair for all” — due to be officially unveiled by Prime Minister Gordon Brown on Saturday — Alexander said it had been chosen to counter what he called the Conservative’s “empty” offer of change.

“Change is a process, future is a destination. People want a sense of hope, possibility and pride about Britain,” he said, adding that beneath the anxiety and anger over bankers’ bonuses, the expenses scandal and the recession, there was a “submerged optimism” among voters.

A new election slogan, “A future fair for all” — due to be officially unveiled by Prime Minister Gordon Brown on Saturday.

This statement should be “A future failure for all but the FEW. Only non performers are benefiting from the unfair treatment of the producers.   Those that produce including union workers will suffer from a “make them all the same attitude” by government.

This is the attitude that has marked Socialist failure from the beginning of time.  The people will continue to suffer from this failed vision.

Why is The Obama so set in making the same mistake as so many other failed governments leaders and dictators..

Stalin, Chavez and Castro would agree with Michelle Obama.

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

Michelle Obama doesn’t seem to understand when she says, “looking his critics in the eye”. The ISSUE is his critics are the American PEOPLE!

“I think my husband has done a phenomenal job staying on course, looking his critics in the eye, coming up with clear solutions against staying the course,” Michelle Obama told Robin Roberts in an exclusive morning television interview on “Good Morning America.” “That’s what leadership is. But people have the right to criticize the President of the United States.”

Michelle Obama’s comments came in response to recent criticism from Sarah Palin who told TEA Party conventioneers in Nashville, Tenn., this weekend she wants to ask Obama supporters, “How is that hope-y, change-y stuff working out for you?”

The Obama view is failing because the United States is not interested is lowering the country to the level of either Fascist or Socialist models Obama is using to change the U.S..

The Obama administration is a complete disaster and failure.

Largest-ever federal payroll to hit 2.15 million

Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010

Largest-ever federal payroll to hit 2.15 million.   

The Obama administration says the government will grow to 2.15 million employees this year, topping 2 million for the first time since President Clinton declared that “the era of big government is over” and joined forces with a Republican-led Congress in the 1990s to pare back the federal work force.

Most of the increases are on the civilian side, which will grow by 153,000 workers, to 1.43 million people, in fiscal 2010. 

How does The Obama justify his cutting spending when he is hiring MORE & MORE Government workers while NOT doing anything to help the middle class.

Finally someone gets it!!! It is Tom Rooney of Florida.

Monday, February 1st, 2010

Tom Rooney of Florida is doing something for the Seniors thrown under the bus by Obama.

On October 15, 2009, the Social Security Administration (SSA) officially announced that there will be no COLA for 2010. This decision was made using a price index formula to determine if there has been an actual increase in the cost of living. These days Americans are feeling the crunch in every aspect of their daily lives: electric bills are going up, health care premiums are on the rise – even the price of a gallon of milk can cause sticker shock.  Clearly, there is a flaw in the formula that must be immediately addressed.

To that end, I cosponsored H.R. 2365, the Consumer Price Index for Elderly Consumers Act.  Rep. Peter DeFazio (OR-04) introduced this bipartisan legislation which puts in place a more accurate formula to ensure senior’s actual costs are considered when determining the need for a COLA. Seniors need a pricing index that takes into account the unique goods and services they purchase, such as healthcare and prescription drugs, and H.R. 2365 does just that.

Additionally, I cosponsored a similar piece of legislation, H.R. 3691, The Seniors and Veterans Economic Stimulus (SAVES) Act of 2009, which proposes to use all unobligated funds from the economic stimulus package to provide seniors and veterans with the assistance they need. President Obama and his administration must recognize that our seniors and veterans need immediate relief and cannot afford to shoulder the burden of our struggling economy without a COLA increase from the federal government.

Many of you have pointed to the Congressional pay raises as an example of how out of touch those in Washington are with the people they represent. I could not agree more. As a freshman member of Congress I was appalled to learn that an automatic pay increase is included in the annual appropriations bills that fund the federal government. Members of Congress should not be awarded an automatic pay raise, especially when hard-working American families are suffering from record unemployment and a COLA increase is determined to be unnecessary. Those of us in Congress must make the same sacrifices that we ask of our constituents and should not even consider a pay raise until the federal deficit is addressed.

With this in mind I became an original cosponsor of the Stop the Congressional Pay-Raise Act (H.R. 156). This legislation was introduced by Representative Harry Mitchell (AZ-5) on January 6, 2009, and would prevent Members of Congress from receiving any automatic pay adjustment in 2010. This legislation was included in the Omnibus Appropriations Act of 2009 which prohibits the scheduled 2010 pay raise. I commit to you that I will continue to oppose the automatic pay increase and will work to have this language removed from appropriations bills.

Obama news flash on BUDGET.. it is Bushes fault.

Monday, February 1st, 2010

Just now The Obama came out with the same failed thinking that lead us into the worst economy since Jimmy Carter!!!! More smoke but without the mirror. He is talking about cutting expenses and then listed more spending… more government… MORE LIES and DECEIT.

The Obama should really get some people involved that actually know how to increase jobs and a stronger economy.. Clearly he doesn’t have any idea and neither do any of his staff.

When will enough be enough for the Obama Socialist.

Monday, February 1st, 2010

The Heritage Foundation Deficits, spending and debt, oh my! Obama’s new budget promises higher spending as far as the eye can see – $3.8 trillion, in fact. A record $1.556 trillion deficit in 2010. $5.08 trillion in debt over five years. When will it end?!

Obama wants to freeze the smallest government accounts next year after bloating all budgets to the max.

Can anyone still believe the lies coming out of the Democratic Socialist Party and the leadership in Congress?
