There Is Only One Way to Stop Obama from Setting Jihadists Free

You’re not going to like this.

Our commander-in-chief is recklessly releasing jihadists from Guantanamo Bay. The president’s Bush-deranged base is buoyed by the all-out effort to fulfill his vow to shut down the detention camp. But the vast majority of Americans remain opposed, and increasingly alarmed. The pace of releases has surged since November’s midterm elections, with over two-dozen detainees sprung — aiding the enemy even as the terror threat intensifies.

But if you want it stopped, the president has to be impeached.

Why does Obama get job performance approval?

Renew America

By Alan Caruba

It is one of the great mysteries. How does Barack Obama continue to generate job approval ratings that say he’s doing a good one?

On a recent weekend Rasmussen Reports rated him at 51% while Gallup gave him a 49% rating. At the Pew Research Center, his rating was at 47%, but they noted that at this time in his presidency, George W. Bush had a job approval rating of 33% while Bill Clinton was rated at 63% approval.

Of course, Bush and Clinton were President at different times dealing with different factors but metaphorically Obama’s ratings suggest that close to half of the voters polled still thought he was doing a good job or, at the very least, not a bad one.

Are the voters that are being polled simply not paying that much attention to the White House and its occupant?

Consider some aspects of his record in office to date:

Obama Inc. Violates Israeli Sovereignty/Agreements

Joe for America

 

OBAMA INC. is a criminal regime, yes, most of us recognize this.

IN this regard, their toxic hands reach across the world, most especially into Israel. Now, no one (including this American-Israeli) is saying that Israel’s leaders are pure as the driven snow, far from it. However, aside from Israel being America’s twin pillar, helping to prop up western civilization, the fact remains that it is the only sea of stability in the most volatile region in the world.

THEREFORE, why exactly would Obama & gang seek to upend the Jewish homeland?

President Obama is expected to reveal a plan to tax offshore profits to fix the U.S.’s infrastructure.

Obama will propose a mandatory 15 percent tax on corporate profits kept abroad in order to fix roads, bridges and other infrastructure around the nation, according to a White House document obtained by Politico.

The proposal will impose taxes on the $2 trillion in profits kept outside the U.S. to “make critical new investments in our roads, bridges, transit systems and freight networks as part of a $478 billion, six-year surface transportation reauthorization,” according the plan’s summary.

Hiking taxes on capital gains as well as ending a loophole that benefits wealthy when their heirs inherit there assets will also be proposed.[…]

This year’s proposal will also include a $176 billion increase in spending on federal highway and transit programs.
