Tweet on, hope on, dream on, Mr Obama.

The night of Mitt Romney’s acceptance speech at the Republican Convention President Obama tweeted on his official tweeter account:

This seat’s taken. http://OFA.BO/c2gbfi , pic.twitter.com/jgGZTb02

Complete with this picture:

 

You Tweet “This seat is taken” and we will reply

It belongs to the people, we’ll vote you bye-bye.

You are too conceited.

You will be defeated.

When you sit in that chair you appear like a fly……………Swat!!

Obama’s plan: It works! A Limerick.

“We tried our plan: It’s No child left a dime;

Sold weapons to terrorists; increasing crime.

We squandered some trillions

And rules costing billions,

For I am a part of Chicago’s worst slime.”

Discussing his economic policies at a fundraiser in Oakland, California, July 23, President Obama, told supporters that “we tried our plan — and it worked.”

“We tried that and it didn’t work,” Obama said of Mitt Romney’s proposed tax cuts and spending cuts, which he dismissed as a Bush-style “top down” economic policy. “Just like we’ve tried their plan, we tried our plan — and it worked,” he added later in the speech. “That’s the difference. That’s the choice in this election. That’s why I’m running for a second term.”

Obama made these comments in Oakland, where the unemployment rate was 13.7 percent in May 2012. The national unemployment rate is 8.2 percent — up from 8.1 percent in May — for the second straight month.

Sarah Palin on Death Panel and the stimulus bill. A Limerick.

Obama’s health care speech Jun 20 10:

First, I will not sign a plan that adds one dime to our deficits — either now or in the future. (Applause.) I will not sign it if it adds one dime to the deficit, now or in the future, period. And to prove that I’m serious, there will be a provision in this plan that requires us to come forward with more spending cuts if the savings we promised don’t materialize.

 H.R. 1 (more commonly known as the Recovery and Reinvestment Act, even more commonly known as the Stimulus Bill) allocated $1.1 billion (a pretty good slush fund, we must be a rich country) to fund the Federal Coordinating Council for Comparative Effectiveness Research.

As Sarah was commenting on Fox News channel

On health care bill mentioned the two words:  “Death Panel”.

But boy, was she wrong,

I’ll confirm with a song:

The stimulus bill authorized the death panel.

And because of that the term Death Panel was named lie of the year, not because it was untrue, but it was not part of the health care bill, but did already exist as part of the stimulus bill.

o.k. I know the first time death panel appeared was on Sarah’s Facebook. But this rhymes.

The great destroyer. Saddam or Barack? A Limerick.

“Saddam the destroyer,” or is it Barack?

The end is the same, it is hard to keep track.

With Limbaugh’s new book

We’ll take a new look.

The battle is on, there is no turning back.

 

The “nickname “for Saddam Hussein was”Saddam the destroyer”. Saddam in Arabic means “One who confronts”.  A description of the destroyer can be found in Revelation 9:7-11 (NIV).  The locusts looked like horses prepared for battle. On their heads they wore something like crowns of gold, and their faces resembled human faces.Their hair was like women’s hair, and their teeth were like lions’ teeth.They had breastplates like breastplates of iron, and the sound of their wings was like the thundering of many horses and chariots rushing into battle.They had tails and stings like scorpions, and in their tails they had power to torment people for five months.They had as king over them the angel of the Abyss, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek, Apollyon. ( Abaddon and Apollyon mean Destroyer.)

 

 

Karzai and Obama in Chicago. “Our taxpayers’ money” at work. A Limerick.

Yes, Karzai gave thanks for “our taxpayers’ money”

to grease the corruption, it’s sweeter than honey.

The eleven year war

makes them ask for much more.

Surrender to Taliban? This is not funny.

Looking to a day when “the Afghan war as we understand it is over,” President Barack Obama met Sunday with President Hamid Karzai of Afghanistan to discuss NATO’s withdrawal from that strife-torn country by the end of 2014.

“I’m bringing to you and to the people of the United States the gratitude of the Afghan people for the support that your taxpayers’ money has provided Afghanistan over the past decade and for the difference that it has made to the well-being of the Afghan people,” the Afghan President Karzai told Obama. He did not give thanks for the sacrifices the troops have made.

The price tag for Afghan forces after 2014 is estimated to be $4.1 billion per year. Afghanistan is expected to pay $500 million of that. Karzai has said his country will need at least $10 billion per year in overall aid through 2025.

Obama looked ahead to a future “in which we have ended our combat role, the Afghan war as we understand it is over, but our commitment to friendship and partnership with Afghanistan continues” and evoked “a shared vision that we have in which Afghanistan is able to transition from decades of war to a transformational decade of peace and stability and development.”

Obama underlined “the enormous sacrifices that have been made by the American people, most profoundly by American troops, as well as the troops of our other coalition partners” and said Americans “recognize the hardship that the Afghan people have been through.”

“The loss of life continues in Afghanistan. There will be hard days ahead. But we’re confident that we’re on the right track,” he said.
