OBAMA'S ACCOMPLISHMENTS!
Let’s take a look at Obama’s accomplishments.
He is the First President to oversee a cut in the credit rating of the United States.
He is the First President to apply for aid as a foreign student and then deny that he is a foreigner.
He is the First President to have a Social Security from a state he has never lived it.
He is the First President to be held in contempt of court for obstructing oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico.
He is the First President to require all Americans to purchase a product from a third party.
He is the First President to spend a Trillion Dollars on “shovel ready” jobs when there is no such thing.
He is the First President to abrogate bankruptcy laws to turn over control to his Union Supporters.
He is the First President to terminate America’s ability to put a man in space.
He is the First President to tell a manufacturing company in which state they are allowed to locate a company. Boeing is the company and they have succeeded in Obama being overruled.
He is the First President to file lawsuits against states he took an oath to protect. Think of AZ, WI, OH, & IN.
He is the First President to withdraw an existing coal permit that had been properly issued.
He is the First President to appoint 45 czars to replace elected officials.
He is the First President to golf 73 separate times in his first 2-1/2 years. The count is now up to 90.
He is the First President to hide his medical, educational and travel records.
He is the First President to go on multiple global “Apology Tours”.
He is the First President to have 22 personal servants, at taxpayer expense, for his wife.
He is the First President to have a dog trainer on retainer, at taxpayer expense, in the amount of $102.000 per year.
He is the First President to tell us the Morning Call to Worship, by Islamic Clerics is the most beautiful sound on earth.
He is the First President to claim to be increasing oil production and then blocks drilling on Federal Land and blocks the Keystone Pipe Line.
I guess the question must be “How is hope and change working out for you?”
Remember these accomplishments when you vote this year!

Time is running out for Israel! This is true on two accounts. First, Iran is determined to produce a nuclear weapon. They are also working on a missile that will reach Israel.
Israel is not going to let Iran obtain a nuclear weapon and a missile that can reach Israel. Israel is so small that it cannot absorb a nuclear strike and survive. The rest of the world is taking very little action to stop Iran. Sure, we have instituted sanctions against them, but they are pushing ahead in spite of this.
The Second reason for Israel to take action is Obama. If he is reelected and does not have to worry about getting the Jewish vote, I believe he will then turn his back on Israel.
Israel has no choice, but to strike Iran. They are our ally! The only democracy in the Mid East. We must stand with them. Our people need to rise up and let our leaders know, we cannot abandon Israel.

APOLOGIZE!
Two of our soldiers were killed because of an incident where some copies of the Koran were burned. Today two more men were killed for the same reason.
Obama, and most of his staff have apologized for this incident. There should have been an apology, but not by our President. The apology should have come from the officer in command of Afghanistan. The President should not have been the one to apologize. Again he has bowed to the Muslins’.
This is just another case of Obama being in favor of the Muslim community.

OBAMA'S ACCOMPLISHMENTS!
What has Obama accomplished? Let’s review!
Number One is the Solyndra affair. Obama touted this company as one of the most efficient producers of Green Energy. He was so sure that He personally approved the expenditure of $535 Million as a loan to them. This came out of the taxpayers pocket, not his. This approval was in 2009, and by September of 2011 the company filed bankruptcy. A total waste of taxpayer dollars!
Number Two is the secret drone that was flying over Iran. Iran was able to capture the drone intact. They then promised to share the technology with China. When the drone was captured we should have sent in aircraft to destroy it. Instead, Obama, asked “pretty please” for Iran to return it. We again end up with egg on our face because of our inept leader, and they laughed at us.
Number Three, Obama overreached his authority in the matter of requiring Catholics to provide birth control and abortions. He does not seem to have any regard for the rights spelled out in the first amendment to our Constitution. He is not a defender of the Constitution, as he has sworn to uphold. He has far overstepped his authority.
Number Four, He keeps talking about creating jobs and what a great service he has done. He then stops the Keystone Pipeline, a project that could create as many as 20,000 jobs in the construction of the pipeline and other suppliers.
Number Five, He was all excited about the “Arab Spring”, but with no follow through. He supported the uprising in Egypt as a chance for real democracy there. As it turns out “The Muslin Brotherhood” has gained control of the Egyptian parliament. This is a radical organization that will not be our friends.
Number Six, Obama seems to be set on raising taxes on “The Rich”. This is not what our country needs with our economy in the present condition. He does not understand that “The Rich” are the ones that create jobs. Raising their tax will only drive their assets off shore! I remember someone saying,” I never had a job from a poor person”.
Last, but not least, Obama made the statement in 2008 that if he did not decrease the federal deficit before his next election that he should not be reelected. I think that we should remind him of that and see that he does not win this year. His budget this year is not balanced, but projects a 1.3 Trillion deficit. I don’t know how he can propose this budget with a straight face!
It is time that we have a major change in Washington and our leadership.
At this point I don’t know who the Republicans will nominate. I do believe that any one of those running can do a better job to change the direction of our country. Everyday we seem to be getting closer to becoming a socialist state. Is that what we want? Look at other countries! Do we want to be like them? Socialism has failed everywhere it has been tried. When will we wake up?
