President Barack Obama, along with many Democrats, likes to say that, while they may disagree with the GOP on many issues related to national security, they absolutely share their admiration and dedication to members of our armed forces. Obama, in particular, enjoys being seen visiting troops and having photos taken with members of our military. So, why is his campaign and the Democrat party suing to restrict their ability to vote in the upcoming election?
On July 17th, the Obama for America Campaign, the Democratic National Committee, and the Ohio Democratic Party filed suit in OH to strike down part of that state's law governing voting by members of the military. Their suit said that part of the law is "arbitrary" with "no discernible rational basis."
Currently, Ohio allows the public to vote early in-person up until the Friday before the election. Members of the military are given three extra days to do so.
The left, especially the rage addicts here on ONTD political, are deeply in denial over Chick-fil-A. When their attempts to bully and intimidate the restaurant failed spectacularly ($100 million in sales in one day!) and their silly "kiss in" was a flop of equal proportions they've simply turned to another Big Lie about the chain.
The hate-filled bigots on the left are now claiming that the President of Chick-fil-A has promised to "fire anyone who is gay" and display a map of where "people can be fired simply for being gay" (i.e., there isn't a specific law against it) with the Chick-fil-A logo plastered all over it.
It's silly, and they obviously haven't learned their lesson about being bigots and bullies. When Chick-fil-A continues to be a popular restaurant and (in all likelyhood) sets sales record for this quarter they will not doubt claim it is "hate" from their opponents who made that happen.
Nope, it's YOUR hate that made that happen! Look in the mirror, do you like what you see? Current Mood : amused Tags : big lie, bigotry, discrimination, hate, liberals
I pledge to keep eating at Chick-fil-A as long as certain political operatives keep trying to use the Big Lie technique against them. Chick-fil-A is NOT firing anyone who is gay, so stop posting maps of the US "where Chick-fil-A has promised to fire gay people!!!111!1111!!111!!". If you want to pass laws saying it's illegal to fire someone just for being gay, then fine, do that. But don't keep dragging Chick-fil-A into it because you don't like them. That's dishonest and makes you a bigot and a bully. Didn't you learn that lesson from the attempt to use political force against them?
And if you need reminded I don't think the (federal) government should be involved in marriage in the first place. I refuse, however, to sit idly by while politicians and their hired goons make scapegoats out of people and companies they don't like.

1.6 million more reasons to vote against Obama and Socialism
The list of things that could use $1.6 million in funding in the United States probably exceeds 1.6 million itself. Yet the Obama administration, ever eager to buy votes, has decided that funding the restoration of racist, anti-American murals in California is at the top of the list.
Those of you suffering in California have my continued sympathies. Get out while you still can! It won't be long before the Democrats nationalize all the property there.
Any time someone accuses the Republicans of being racist, they should point to this and ask how anyone who is against racism could support Obama and the people behind these disgusting murals that glorify Communist dictators and murderers.

It's 2012 and the left is still blaming Bush for their own failures.
We have historical precedent with which to measure Obama and his policies. For example, President Reagan inherited many of the same problems that Obama did. However, Reagan's policies had already led to a record-setting economic expansion by this time in his first term. Obama and his policies still have us mired deeply in recession.
Instead of being adults and accepting responsibility for their actions and policies Obama and his allies in Congress are still trying to blame President Bush, despite the fact that it's been more than three years since Bush did anything substantial as President and more than five years since Democrats held sway in Congress (a Congress that Obama was part of, no less).
Speaking of Congress, since the Republicans regained the House after the 2010 elections they have passed numerous bills aimed at improving the economy, balancing the budget, etc. only to have the Senate (still #occupied by Democrats) block them.
When our children act this way we send them to a time-out to rethink their actions. I think that's a great way to solve our problems with the Democrats in 2012. Send them to a political time-out in November so they can reconsider their actions. Current Mood : busy Tags : 2012 election, democrats, liberals, obama administration, society
Liberals have greatly accelerated their plans to enslave enough of the populace to guarantee a "voting majority". The plan should be obvious to all but so many refuse to acknowledge it for what it is: slavery.
Liberals were handed a gift when federal taxes were lifted from about half the population. With such a large number of people not paying into the system it was easy to expand the "vilify the rich" propaganda and blame all of the nation's ills on those evil rich people. If only they would pay even more in taxes no one would have to worry about anything! Everything would be free!
Coupled with the huge increase in government employment (and the lavish pay and retirement benefits layered on in the 1990s and 2000s) the left now has a powerful army of followers ready to fight tooth and nail to keep their comfortable slave society intact.
Democrats have bet that the problem with slavery wasn't that it's an unethical, criminal activity but that it wasn't cushy enough for the victims. Forget the steel chains and prison-like housing...provide the victims with economic chains and a velvet-lined cage and they will happily throw away the keys themselves.
People who work with elephants know that once the elephant has learned that a chain restricts them they can be controlled without the real chains because the elephant will continue to feel restrained psychologically. Democrats know the same thing is true of some voters. They are betting that at least 51% of them will not only feel psychologically constrained by liberalism, but be comfortable enough in their slavery to not want to do anything about it.
