The Only Thing Transparent Is Pelosi’s Lie
Nov 13, 2014 Obamacare
Nancy Pelosi is a liar. She is not making mistakes and her advanced age is not responsible for her untruths. She is just a flat out liar.
Recently, videos surfaced of a man named Jonathan Gruber of MIT (who was involved in the crafting of Obamacare) where he discusses the underhanded tactics used to get Obamacare passed and where he calls the public stupid. He basically confirms what the thinking among us knew and that is the Democrats deliberately lied in order to pass Obamacare and they banked on the stupidity (their perception) of Americans for it to happen.
Nancy Pelosi was asked about Gruber’s comments and she said she did not know him and that he was not involved in crafting the bill.
SHE LIED.
In 2009 Pelosi cited Gruber when talking about Obamacare. She also named him on the Speaker’s website.
So yes, she knows who he is.
As for him helping to craft it:
A 2012 article in the New York Times states:
After Mr. Gruber helped the administration put together the basic principles of the proposal, the White House lent him to Capitol Hill to help Congressional staff members draft the specifics of the legislation.
This would be the same Capitol Hill where Pelosi was Speaker of the House. She or her staff more than likely worked with the guy.
Regardless, she mentioned him by name and had his name on the Speaker’s website. How could she discuss his work and not know who he was?
She is lying because she is a lying sack of crap. She is a liberal progressive twit who believes that the end justifies the means.
Keep in mind that Gruber said that the lack of transparency allowed them to deceive the American public in order to get Obamacare passed and Pelosi proves that they are not above this approach by lying, or should I say not being transparent, about knowing him.
Then again, maybe she thought they were asking about Hans Gruber…
Cave canem!
Never surrender, never submit.

From Birthers To Bainers
Jul 13, 2012 Commentary, Political
The Barack Obama for dictator campaign is obsessed with telling a lie over and over in order to paint Mitt Romney as a felon. In fact, the campaign called Romney a felon because the campaign wants people to believe that Mitt Romney did not leave control of Bain Capitol when he says he did.
This lie has been checked by several fact checking organizations and it has been found to be false. This has not mattered to the Obama camp as it continues to put forth completely debunked information as proof positive that Romney lied.
This is coming from the same people who attack birthers because they refuse to stop making claims about Obama’s birth (and natural born citizen status) even though the campaign has released documents to disprove the claim.
Keep in mind that those documents have been shown to be fabrications and not original source documents. Regardless, the campaign says they have released documents and that should be the end of the story.
Hell, the campaign cites the same fact checking sources that have debunked the Romney issue as proof that Obama is natural born and the issue should be dropped.
Why would the campaign continue to spread thoroughly debunked information when it has taken the position it has on Obama’s birth?
It is because the campaign is scared. It has been digging and digging and has not found anything that will harm Romney. Since there is nothing that will damage him the liberals just did what they always do.
They manufactured evidence. They made false claims. They told America a lie, knowing full well it was a lie, and they have doubled down by opposing the findings of fact checking organizations.
This will work with some voters who do not pay attention or lack the intelligence to see the truth. That would be many liberal graduates from the public school system.
The campaign is scared because the messiah, B. Hussein Obama, might not get reelected.
The campaign will have more to worry about if the news reports that Condi Rice is being considered as Romney’s running mate result in her being selected (and accepting) for that job.
Rice is smart, conservative, has lots of foreign policy experience, and has an 80% favorability rating.
If she ends up being the VP nominee Obama and his campaign will have a lot to worry about because she will bring even more energy to an already energized Republican party that is hell bent on getting rid of the Socialist in the White House and replacing him with someone who actually knows how to lead.
So they are afraid, very afraid. They attack Romney with false claims because they have nothing and they know they can’t run on what they have done (they have to run FROM what they have done).
Obama calls for transparency from Romney (even though the publicly available records are being used to perpetuate lies) while Obama continues to keep all his records locked away.
Let us see the college transcripts, all of them and let us see the actual vault copy of the birth certificate.
Obama is spreading the lie that Romney was working for Bain and making the decisions that affected the company while he was simultaneously running the Olympics.
Bain was successful during that time and the Olympic Games were successful.
So, what Obama is saying is that he believes Romney is capable of running a number of things at once and being successful in all of them at the same time.
We know that Romney left Bain and was not running it but that does not negate the fact that Obama thinks he was which, according to Obama, means Mitt Romney is better qualified to lead and bring us to success.
Cave canem!

But Liberals Think Obama Is Transparent
Apr 3, 2011 Political
Barack Obama said he would have the most transparent administration and many liberals believe that this is the case. One who comments here will link to liberal sites and their claims of more transparency to bolster claims that are evidently not true. The very liberal Washington Post has taken issue with Obama and his regime and the lack (get that liberals, lack) of transparency:
But the reality has not matched the president’s rhetoric. We, presidents of two of the nation’s largest journalism organizations, and many of our thousands of members, have found little openness since Obama took office. If anything, the administration has gone in the opposite direction: imposing restrictions on reporters’ newsgathering that exceed even the constraints put in place by President George W. Bush.
Wow, EXCEED the constraints put in place by Bush. This must be making the Obama cheering section (read, media) lose their minds. How could their messiah be so non transparent after he promised them he would be so open?
Because he is a liar. He is a Socialist who will manipulate (and has) the media in order to pass his Socialist agenda.
Some are waking up but even with the complaints the media (including the authors of the cited piece) will support the empty suit in his bid for reelection.
They can’t help it, it is in their blood.
Cave Canem!
Never surrender, never submit.

Come Clean On Those Donors
Oct 13, 2010 Political
David Axelrod was on Face the Nation Sunday and he was bashing Republicans, particularly Karl Rove, because of money that goes to ads for Republican candidates. The problem, according to Axelrod, is that the donors names have not been disclosed. The insinuation is that the donors are illegal and a lot of the money is coming from overseas entities. Rove has denied this, his group is following the law, and even The New York Times stated that nothing wrong took place.
This has not stopped the Democrats, including Obama and Biden, from parroting the same lies. The smear, which faithful liberal Alan Colmes is also harping on, is a non starter for Obama and the Democrats.
Nothing wrong is taking place. While I would like to see transparency I also understand that the law is the law and these people are not obligated to disclose the information.
Funny thing is that Obama had no problem with undisclosed donors when it was the donors giving to him during his run for the presidency. Obama still has not come clean on a lot of his donors. He received a lot of money from foreigners and others overseas, in violation of the law. His credit card process had no security and there was rampant abuse when it came to him getting money.
The Obama team’s disclosures came in response to questions from The Washington Post about the case of Mary T. Biskup, a retired insurance manager from Manchester, Mo., who turned up on Obama’s FEC reports as having donated $174,800 to the campaign. Contributors are limited to giving $2,300 for the general election.
Biskup, who had scores of Obama contributions attributed to her, said in an interview that she never donated to the candidate. “That’s an error,” she said. Moreover, she added, her credit card was never billed for the donations, meaning someone appropriated her name and made the contributions with another card. Washington Post
There is no doubt that Obama took illegal donations and that he did not disclose the names of people who sent him money. For him to now cry about the Republicans not disclosing their donors, donors who are legal, smacks of desperation. And this is because he is desperate. The Republicans will gain somewhere between 55 and 70 seats in the House and will either tie the Senate or take a one Senator lead. He is desperate because he is going to take, as George Bush once said, a thumping.
These accusations are baseless and Axelrod looked like a fool trying to push them on Face the Nation. When one considers the response of Bob Schieffer, a left wing supporter, it is easy to see the Democrats are in real trouble.
Cave Canem!
Never surrender, never submit.

The Most Transparent Government
Jan 14, 2010 Political
Nancy Pelosi promised it and Barack Obama promised it but both have failed to deliver on it. These two radical liberals promised the most transparent government in the history of the universe (or something like that) and they tell us how transparent they are every chance they get.
They tell us after the emerge from closed door sessions where secret deals are struck, they tell us after they vote in the middle of the night and they tell us after they are challenged for not being transparent (as in breaking the C-SPAN promise). They honestly believe that if they say it enough people will believe it.
Joe Biden is out to correct all that. His schedule for today shows that he met with the Recovery Act Transparency and Accountability Board.
Unfortunately the transparency meeting was CLOSED TO THE PRESS.
Here is the rest of Biden’s schedule. Notice how much of it is CLOSED.
DAILY GUIDANCE FOR THE VICE PRESIDENT, Thursday, January 14, 2010:
In the morning, the President and the Vice President will receive the Presidential Daily Briefing and the Economic Daily Briefing in the Oval Office. These briefings are closed press.At 11:30 AM, the Vice President will meet with Secretary of Transportation Ray LaHood to discuss the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. This meeting is closed press.
Afterwards, the President and the Vice President will have lunch in the Private Dining Room. This lunch is closed press.
At 1:00 PM, the Vice President will meet with Iraqi Vice President Adil Abd al-Mahdi in the Roosevelt Room. There will be a pool spray at the bottom of this meeting; gather time is 1:45 PM in the Brady Briefing Room.
(UPDATE 2:20 p.m.: The White House issued its own report on this closed meeting. Both paragraphs are added below at the end of the VP’s schedule.)
Then, at 2:15 PM, the Vice President will meet with Earl Devaney, chairman of the Recovery Act Transparency and Accountability Board. This meeting is closed press. Los Angeles Times
I left his lunch out because I would expect that to be closed and I imagine that they have to announce that it is because some are photo ops depending upon who is eating there or whatever. No one can begrudge these men the chance to eat lunch in private. I also left out the PDB because it should be closed.
But, that leaves three meetings that are CLOSED including the one on transparency in the Recovery Act and one that is a splash, where they allow reporters in for a few brief photos after the meeting while the participants pretend they are still in a meeting.
Four meetings and not one of them was open.
How is that for transparent?
I guess Biden was trying to keep up with the rest of the Democrats who were locked in rooms where they discussed the health care debacle in private.
Yep, change you can deceive in.
UPDATE: This is at least transparent. The head of weatherization for Obama has funneled business to her husbands window company.
