			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>A Lot Of Talk, Nothing To Show</h1>
<h2> Obama’s State of the Union Address January 25, 2012:</h2>
<p>“During the Great Depression, America built the Hoover Dam and the Golden Gate Bridge. After World War II, we connected our States with a system of highways. Democratic and Republican administrations invested in great projects that benefited everybody, from the workers who built them to the businesses that still use them today.”</p>
<p>- Has Obama ever proposed a comparable project?</p>
<p>“Let’s remember how we got here. Long before the recession, jobs and manufacturing began leaving our shores….we should support everyone who’s willing to work; and every risk-taker and entrepreneur who aspires to become the next Steve Jobs.”</p>
<p>- Is Obama not aware that Steve Jobs’ Apple Computer does it manufacturing in China?</p>
<p>This it solid proof that this man is totally out of touch with reality.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>Who is This Barack Obama?</h1>
<h3>Here are some interesting question raised by a curious individual:</h3>
<blockquote>
<h2>WHERE ARE THE OBAMA GIRLFRIENDS?</h2>
<p>Think about this e-mail and see if there&#8217;s anything here you don&#8217;t believe! I hadn&#8217;t thought about this &#8211; but where are Obama&#8217;s past girlfriends surely he had at least one? No past girl friends popping up anywhere? Strange &#8211; strange to the point of being downright weird! OK, this is just plain old common sense, no political agendas for either side. Just common knowledge for citizens of a country, especially American citizens, who know every little tidbit about every other president (and their wives) that even know that Andrew Jackson&#8217;s wife smoked a corn cob pipe and was accused of adultery, or that Lincoln never went to school or Kennedywore a back brace, or Truman played the piano.</p>
<p>We are Americans! Our media vets these things out! We are known for our humanitarian interests and caring for our&#8230; ‘fellow man.&#8217; We care, but none of us know one single humanizing fact about the history of our own president.</p>
<p>Honestly, and this is a personal thing&#8230; but it&#8217;s bugged me for years that no one who ever dated him ever showed up. Taken his charisma, which caused the women to be drawn to him so obviously during his campaign, looks like some lady would not have missed the opportunity.</p>
<h2>We Knew Details of Past Presidents</h2>
<p>We all know about JFK&#8217;s magnetism, McCain was no monk, Palin&#8217;s courtship and even her athletic prowess were probed. Biden&#8217;s aneurisms are no secret. Look at Cheney and Clinton-we all know about their heart problems. How could I have left out Wild Bill before or during the White House?</p>
<p>Nope&#8230; not one lady has stepped up and said, &#8220;He was soooo shy,&#8221; or &#8220;What a great dancer!&#8221; Now look at the rest of what we know&#8230; no classmates, not even the recorder for the Columbia class notes ever heard of him.</p>
<p>Who was the best man at his wedding? Start there. Check for groomsmen. Then get the footage of the graduation ceremony.</p>
<p>Has anyone talked to the professors? Isn&#8217;t it odd that no one is bragging that they knew him or taught him or lived with him.</p>
<p>When did he meet Michele and how? Are there photos?</p>
<p>Every president provides the public with all their photos etc. for their library. What has he released? Nada &#8211; other than what was in this so-called biography! And experts who study writing styles etc. claim it was not O&#8217;s own words or typical of his speech patterns, etc.</p>
<p>Does this make any of you wonder? Ever wonder why no one ever came forward from Obama&#8217;s past, saying they knew him, attended school with him, was his friend, etc? Not one person has ever come forward from his past.</p>
<p>This should really be a cause for great concern. Did you see the movie titled, The Manchurian Candidate? Let&#8217;s face it. As insignificant as we all are&#8230; someone whom we went to school with remembers our name or face&#8230; someone remembers we were the clown or the dork or the brain or the quiet one or the bully or something about us.</p>
<p>George Stephanopoulos, ABC News said the same thing during the 2008 campaign. Even George questions why no one has acknowledged that the president was in their classroom or ate in the same cafeteria or made impromptu speeches on campus. Stephanopoulos was a classmate of Obama at Columbia-class of 1984. He says he never had a single class with him. Since he is such a great orator, why doesn&#8217;t anyone in Obama&#8217;s college class remember him? And, why won&#8217;t he allow Columbia to release his records?</p>
<p>Do you like millions of others, simply assume all this is explainable &#8211; even though no one can?</p>
<h2>NOBODY REMEMBERS OBAMA AT COLUMBIA</h2>
<p>Looking for evidence of Obama&#8217;s past, Fox News contacted 400 Columbia University students from the period when Obama claims to have been there, but not one remembers him. For example, Wayne Allyn Root was (like Obama) a political science major at Columbia , who graduated in 1983. In 2008, Root says of Obama, &#8220;I don&#8217;t know a single person at Columbia that knew him, and they all know me. I don&#8217;t have a single classmate who ever knew Barack Obama at Columbia &#8230; EVER! Nobody recalls him.</p>
<p>Root adds that he was, &#8220;Class of &#8217;83 political science, pre-law&#8221; and says, &#8220;You don&#8217;t get more exact or closer than that.. Never met him in my life, don&#8217;t know anyone who ever met him.&#8221;At our 20th class reunion five years ago, who was asked to be the speaker of the class? Me. No one ever heard of Barack! And five years ago, nobody even knew who he was. The guy who writes the class notes, who&#8217;s kind of the, as we say in New York , &#8216;the macha&#8217; who knows everybody, has yet to find a person, a human who ever met him.&#8221; Obama&#8217;s photograph does not appear in the school&#8217;s yearbook, and Obama consistently declines requests to talk about his years at Columbia, provide school records, or provide the name of any former classmates or friends while at Columbia. How can this be?</p>
<p>NOTE: Wayne Allyn Root can easily be verified. He graduated valedictorian from his high school, Thornton-Donovan School, then graduated from Columbia University in 1983 as a Political Science major in the same &#8217;83 class in which Barack Hussein Obama states he was.</p>
<p>Some other interesting questions.</p>
<p>Why was Obama&#8217;s law license inactivated in 2002?</p>
<p>Why was Michelle&#8217;s law license inactivated by court order?</p>
<p>According to the U.S. Census, there is only one Barack Obama &#8211; but 27 Social Security numbers and over 80 aliases..</p>
<p>WHAT!? The Social Security number he uses now originated in Connecticut where he is never reported to have lived.</p>
<p>No wonder all his records are sealed!</p>
<p>Somewhere, someone had to know him in school&#8230; before he &#8220;reorganized&#8221; Chicago and burst upon the scene at the 2004 Democratic Convention and made us swoon with his charm, poise, and speaking pizzazz.</p>
<p>One of the biggest CONS this country has ever seen, and getting away with it. This is scary on many levels!</p></blockquote>

<p>Obama opposed both &#8220;Waterboarding&#8221; and the operation of Guantánamo Bay. But without these operations Osama Bin Laden would still be alive today.</p>
<blockquote><p>One  of the key sources for initial information about an al Qaeda &#8220;courier&#8221;  who led U.S. authorities to bin Laden&#8217;s Pakistani hide-out was Khalid  Sheikh Mohammed, the al Qaeda operative said to have masterminded the  September 11, 2001 attacks, a former U.S. national security official  said.</p>
<p>KSM, as he was known to U.S. officials, was subjected to &#8220;waterboarding&#8221; 183 times, the U.S. government has acknowledged.</p></blockquote>

<p>Just further proof of the poor judgement skills of President Obama.</p>

And Timonthy Geithner, the US Secretary of Treasury, is showing his lack of understanding and his lack of independence from the Oval Office.</p>
<p>In a recent decision, the federal reserve has decided to buy $75 billion worth of bonds through mid-2011.</p>
<h1>No Understanding of World Economics</h1>
<p>Obama&#8217;s lack of understanding world economics has made itself obvious in a statement made in Seoul, Korea at the G-20 meeting.</p>
<blockquote><p>From everything I can see, this decision was not one designed to have an impact on the currency, on the dollar&#8230;It was designed to grow the economy.</p></blockquote>
<p>A basic economics course in international economics at nearly any college or university in the US will teach you that a decision, such as the one to increase the money supply by $75 billion, will make a major impact across the world economy.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>Change For The Worse</h1>
<p>The Obama administration has failed to bring hope and change for almost two years. In the fourth quarter of 2007 Obama was beginning to make his presence known. Talk of higher taxes and more regulations caused investors, home buyers and others to step back and take note.</p>
<p><a href="http://obamashopeandchange.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/headshotpraying.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-281" title="headshotpraying" src="http://obamashopeandchange.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/headshotpraying-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>A few months later a builder in Pinehurst had his $1 million spec home nearly complete and a couple very interested in it. They were taking their time making the important decision. After seeing Obama&#8217;s promises of higher taxes the couple elected to wait things out. &#8220;We think we&#8217;ll wait until we see what happens in this election before we make our decision.&#8221; After Obama was elected the builder had no prospects. &#8220;Things just dried up.&#8221;</p>
<h2>GDP Below 2007 Levels</h2>
<p>Our economy has still not recovered to the 2007 levels. GDP today is still below what it was in the fourth quarter of 2007 (<a href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704116004575522351201224286.html">-WSJ</a>).</p>
<p>Of course the Obama administration puts the blame back on Bush. And they will continue to do so as long as the news is bad. But when you compare our economy with that of other developed countries some signs of responsibility begin to present themselves. Today there are 4.6% fewer people employed in the US then there were at the beginning of the recession. G-7 nations have lost 2.4% of their jobs. The OEDC lost 1.9%. Euro zone countries have only lost 1.7%. The UK is down only 0.6%. It&#8217;s hard to argue that the Obama administration is performing it&#8217;s economic duties well when compared to other developed nations.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://obamashopeandchange.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/stimulusgraph.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-366" title="stimulusgraph" src="http://obamashopeandchange.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/stimulusgraph.jpg" alt="" width="463" height="344" /></a></p>
<h1>Change On The Way?</h1>
<p>We are approaching the 2010 elections and it appears that Obama is about to lose power. As things look promising for a head locked federal government for the 2011-2012 congressional term, confidence in our economy begins to grow. But there is still some caution.</p>
<p>Our economy thrives when risk takers take risks. New ideas create better products, more goods and more services. But risk takers will not take risks unless there is the chance for a reward. If the democrat party fails to retain either of both houses then risk takers will at least have a little assurance that things will not get worse concerning their tax burden. Let&#8217;s just hope their is enough encouragement to get the $2 trillion waiting in liquid assets back working again.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>$9 Million Of Your Money Spent On His Causes</h1>
<p><a href="http://obamashopeandchange.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/obamahalo2.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-216" title="obamahalo2" src="http://obamashopeandchange.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/obamahalo2-150x150.jpg" alt="Obama the Saint" width="63" height="63" /></a>Do you know what Obama is spending your money on?  How about this one. Your money was spent to &#8220;stimulate&#8221; the economy by running advertisements promoting his economic package. You subsidized his propaganda!</p>
<p>If the law is already passed, then what is the point of promoting it to the public with taxpayer money? The only cause could be for political promotion. That is totally unnecessary.</p>
<blockquote><p>At a minimum, taxpayers have spent $9.1 million as of July 2010 on signs advertising the Obama administration’s American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, also known as the stimulus law, according to federal officials reporting estimates to the Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board.</p>
<p>But the cost is probably much higher since the six government agencies that spent stimulus dollars relied largely on sampling to get an estimate of how much money was spent on posting signs near Recovery Act projects. &#8211; <a href="http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/75441">CNSNEWS</a></p></blockquote>
<p>What other Obama causes are the taxpayers paying the promotion costs on?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>Americans Are Waking Up</h1>
<p>Gallup data is showing that more and more Americans are becoming aware of Barack Obama&#8217;s leadership capabilities. His approval rating is now near 40%.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://obamashopeandchange.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/gallupdaily20100826.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-317" title="gallupdaily20100826" src="http://obamashopeandchange.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/gallupdaily20100826.jpg" alt="" width="506" height="294" /></a></p>
<h2><a href="http://obamashopeandchange.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/controlofourgovernment.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-318" title="controlofourgovernment" src="http://obamashopeandchange.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/controlofourgovernment-300x270.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="270" /></a>Facing The Facts</h2>
<p>As we fall further into the abyss, it&#8217;s getting harder and harder to pass the blame for our current economic situation on George Bush. We are nearly seven quarters into Obama&#8217;s presidency and there is very little sign of economic recovery. After the passage of one of the largest spending packages in the history of our country, $787 billion for economic stimulus passed February of 2009, the outlook is still grim. Housing prices have plunged 30%. The primary asset of the working American has tanked. Unemployment remains steady at levels the Obama administration said would never be reached if the package were passed.</p>
<p>The Bush blamers tend to forget a couple of very important facts concerning our current economic situation. From 2007 to the end of his presidency, George Bush had very little control the direction our government was taking. The Democrats controlled the House and the Senate from 2007 until the end of Bush&#8217;s presidency. At that point the Democratic party made the acquisition of the presidency it&#8217;s top priority, at any cost. And they did it with smoke and mirrors that predicted a recession, or even a depression.</p>
<h2>Politics Caused The Worst Recession Since The Depression</h2>
<p>In late 2007 and early 2008 the Democratic party&#8217;s prediction of a recession became a self fulfilling prophesy. Consumer confidence began to fall sharply. People started to hold onto their money.</p>
<p>Enter Barack Obama. Pounding the campaign trail with threats of higher taxes and tighter controls over the economy, investors across the country began to convert their assets to cash. The stock market entered one of it&#8217;s worst declines in history. On March 6th, 2009 the Dow Jones Industrial Average reached it&#8217;s lowest point since April 15, 1997. Those were the days of Bill Clinton.</p>
<p>Where to you put the blame?</p>
