Forgotten Dream

50 years ago, Dr. Martin Luther King had a dream. Today's Liberals have forgotten exactly what that dream was. It was not quotas and racial preferences. It was not welfare, and government housing. It was not single parenthood, and the "soft bigotry of low expectations". It was for his children to be judged by the content of their character, NOT the color of their skin.

For the professional race hustlers of the left who stole his dream, jesse who kept his blood soaked shirt to use as a prop to launch his own career as a racial divider, or Al who lied about a white police officer raping a young black girl to launch his career, the legacy is about consolidating their own power AT THE EXPENSE of their own people.

In 1962, the black marriage rate was 84%, the Black illegitimacy rate was 23.6%. 50 years of government dependency has changed that calculus. Today the marriage rate is 36%. the illegitimacy rate is 71.2%.

40 years ago Daniel Patrick Moynihan wrote his seminal "The Negro family: A Case for national action". In it he decried that 24% illegitimacy rate as the "root cause of all social ills in the Black community". He was immediately denounced by leftist social scientists, claiming that illegitimacy was not a concern, because the government was there to provide money. They also claimed that the government could not insert itself in the life of blacks, they had been through so much. Moynihan was correct. NOW 40 years later we see the direct progression of those social scientists policies, DETROIT!

5 years ago, Bill Cosby was roundly denounced for proclaiming one simple truth. That the BEST thing young black could do to lift themselves out of poverty was; to complete school, to get and hold a job, to not have kids until married. These pathologies, encouraged by government policy and programs for 50 years have wrought poverty and destitution upon the Black population.

It is high time for an HONEST conversation about government social policy. Leave out the intentions, they never materialize into achievement. Deal with the RESULTS.

Prevaricator in Chief

The President had a piece in the Herald today. He continues his practice of lying, as if no  one will bother to fact check him.

He claims; "our businesses have created 7.3 million new jobs over the last 41 months" Yet according to his own BLS, the accurate number is 5.6M in 41 months, STILL negative job growth.

He claimed; "deficits are falling at the fastest rate in 60 years.", Evidently he forgot about 2002-2007, when the deficit fell by 33% per year. Down to only $160B or 1.15% of GDP. Further he ignores that the only  reason deficits are falling is due to the very fiscal restraints he whines about and demonizes Republicans for daily, the 2011 debt ceiling spending caps, and sequester.

He claims; "Health care costs are growing at the slowest rate in 50 years", While his own HHS is projecting the increase in costs for 2014 to be 6.8% after increasing 7.5% this years, and co pays DOUBLING from 2009-2012. Did  he forget the 2000's when costs rose by 4.4%/yr.?

He claims; Working to reverse this trend (people working harder just to get by)is my highest priority", SERIOUSLY? What legislation has he proposed, or presented to ameliorate this? Where was he the last 4 years on this?

His proposed solution? After dumping more than $300B borrowed taxpayer dollars into green energy, to use government stimulus to promote wind, solar, green energy.

It is time to acknowledge that we know this president is lying simply because his lips are moving.

Our Anti-Constitutional President



Obama has proven himself to be the Anti-Constitutional President.


Article 2, Section 2 gives the President the power to fill vacancies in the executive branch WITH THE ADVICE AND CONSENT OF CONGRESS. Obama has violated this a number of times with his illegal NLRB appointments, when the Senate was not in recess. Three Federal Courts have already deemed this illegal, he is appealing to SCOTUS.


Article 2. Section 3. States that he will "he shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed". He has violated this section by refusing to uphold DOMA, even going so far as to challenge it in Court. He has unilaterally decided to postpone his on Obamacare, despite that fact that he does not have the authority to change or fail to uphold ANY law.


Article 4, Section 4, states "The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion" Given Obamas failure to uphold immigration laws, and his Legal challenge to states trying to uphold federal immigration laws, he is willfully ignoring invasion on a daily basis. Not to mention using an Executive Order to enact the DREAM act despite Congress refusal to pass it.


The 1st Amendment states; "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." And yet Obama has ordered that the implementation of Obamacare force Catholic doctors and hospitals to perform abortions, and employers to provide coverage for same. Despite their religious prohibitions against it. he has further violated the Free Press clause with his wiretaps of James Rosen, his family, and office, as well as CBS computers, phones, etc.


The 4th Amendment states; "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized." Need I detail how the NSA spying that Obama defends violates this? Or his executive branch practice of wiretapping reporters, critics, etc.


The 14th Amendment guarantees "Equal treatment under the law". Obama has issued 2,400 waivers to unions and politically connected friends exempting them from Obamacare. He has exempted Congress. He has delayed implementation for business, while keep it for the PEOPLE. Different standards for some is NOT "EQUAL TREATMENT UNDER THE LAW"
