You Didn't Build Your Business Alone - BS

President Obama, in a speech to supporters, suggested business owners owe their success to government investment in infrastructure and other projects — saying “if you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that.” Obama’s comment Friday during a campaign stop in Roanoke, Va., came just days after he urged Congress to extend tax cuts enacted during the Bush administration only to families earning less than $250,000 annually — part of his argument that top earners have an obligation to pay more to trim the deficit. “There are a lot of wealthy, successful Americans who agree with me because they want to give something back,” the president said. “If you’ve been successful, you didn’t get there on your own. You didn’t get there on your own. I’m always struck by people who think, well, it must be because I was just so smart. There are a lot of smart people out there. It must be because I worked harder than everybody else. Let me tell you something — there are a whole bunch of hardworking people out there.

Great article on another topic our POTUS speaks on but does not have a clue.

Business is the backbone of this country. PLEASE DONT TALK ABOUT CAPITALISM IS YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN PART OF CAPITALISM.

If he would simply tell the truth 5% of the time, I would have reason to feel sorry for him. But the absence of truth 100% of the time does not leave the door open to wanting anything decent coming from this administration.

This is total bullshit and part of the smokescreen this administration is so very good at!

Wealth Loss Via Home Values Stealing College Opportunity

At the height of the housing boom in the early 2000s, it was natural for homeowners to feel wealthier than they were. Inflated property values translated into a so-called wealth effect: Confident the value of their homes would climb ever higher and bolstered by the cash obtained by easy refinancing, owners spent freely.

A new study published by the National Bureau of Economic Research looks into what role this housing wealth — a household's overall finances — played in homeowners' decision-making when it comes to sending their children to college.

The study -- "The Effect of Housing Wealth on College Choice: Evidence From the Housing Boom" and co-authored by Professors Michael Lovenheim and C. Lockwood Reynolds -- found homeowners that experienced a windfall from the housing boom were more likely to send their children to college, to send them to four-year public institutions instead of two-year institutions and to send them to state "flagship" institutions — which are better resourced, have higher faculty-student ratios and SAT scores and are also more expensive to attend -- rather than nonflagship public institutions.

More specifically, the study found that a $10,000 increase in a family's housing wealth in the four years leading up to a student becoming college-age increases the likelihood he or she attends a flagship public university by 1.8%. It also lowers the probability that a student will attend a community college by 1.6%. http://finance.yahoo.com/blogs/the-exchange/housing-wealth-impacts-where-college-study-says-142023436.html ___________________________________________________________________ The key element to this article are the numbers and seeing the true effect on what housing has done to the college parents since 2007.

You can see in the future, if things do not change in NOV 2012, high school students will be effected as the economic pain starts to trickle down further, to hit what the US might consider core values.

Our society has long felt education is a key to living a better life. But when the rug is shifted and you can no longer afford to assist your children in at least getting their higher education started, a better life starts to seem like an eternity to the next generation.

Kira Hits Another HomeRun!

Kira nails it again!

Bring the issues out and discuss them as Americans, not as special interest groups that want to hear what they want to hear vs. the truth. Step into the light with a plan that encompasses everyone,

Not picking winners and losers like we have heard for the last 3.5 years and the way you hear in all socialist states around the world. Michael Lebb

Romney With Biden Following @NAACP

This is a post about Biden (who is much like a lost schoolchild without his older brother around). He trys to take Romneys thunder at the NAACP during yesterdays speech when he discussed the poor results of public schools and the fact that if the POTUS B.Hussein Obama really cared about children instead of trying to hijack 18% of the US GDP, he would have spent his first 18 months on bettering the public school system. Here is the link to the disastrous Joe Biden at the NAACP.

Mitt Romney has a great program going to meet both him and his VP pick you can find it on this web page. This will go on for weeks I am pretty sure. You donate $3 and get a chance to win a meeting with Mitt and the VP. Pretty cool.

Michelle and The Pulpit of Manipulation

I use to think that Michelle Obama was the queen of hypocrisy and bullying in Washington D.C, but that title should now go to Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee. Rep. Lee (D-TX) has the highest staff turnover rate on Capitol Hill due to her bullying and abusing them. Swear words flow from lips as frequently as lies flow from Barack Obama’s lips. Not only does she curse proficiently, but she has a practice of giving staff members’ nicknames using some of those swear words. One staff member told the

“‘You stupid mother-effer’ was like a constant. Like, all the time. But the interesting thing is she would really project that behavior more towards her African-American staffers. She would have other ethnic groups in the office, like interns or whatnot. But it was really her African-American staffers who she felt comfortable enough to really curse out. … This is something we always talked about. We chalked it up to her just feeling more comfortable acting out her aggression toward a certain group of people versus others.” She is also known for frequent temper tantrums and even throwing things in her D.C. office. One report recounts an incident where Lee humiliated a staffer by forcing him/her to write a memo concerning the staffers own incompetence and it was written in front of the rest of Lee’s staff.

Then Lee has the gall to cite what happened to Karen Klein on the school bus as one of her reasons to sponsor the bill. Lee stated: “As we saw recently with the viral video of bus monitor Karen Klein being verbally assaulted, 21st century bullying has reached beyond its previous scope of only affecting young people. Now, our seniors are getting bullied, there is bullying in the workplace and some would even suggest that there is bullying between the two parties on Capitol Hill. When will it all end?”

This article reminds us who really wheres the pants in the Obama family. And even though she lost her law license in Illinois, she now helps to calculate the direction of the most anti-American White House ever. This White House has divided racial, income, class, religion and many other channels of the US public in the last 3.5 years. Michael Lebb
