Mitt Romney Accuses President Barack Obama Of Driving Up Gas Prices To Get Americans Off Oil

Republican candidate and nomination frontrunner, Mitt Romney, is accusing President Barack Obama of fulfilling a 2008 campaign threat of driving up gas prices, to get Americans off oil, as emissions are allegedly creating global warming. Obama also invested $20 billion dollars in taxpayer money to launch solar companies that failed shortly after, losing the full amount of funds, on more of his unsuccessful energy policies.

This conduct is very unethical and financially unsound, especially during an economic crisis. Rather than turn to science for answers and innovations to reduce carbon emissions, the Obama Administration is guilty of getting carried away with its newfangled, tree hugging, moon baying philosophical beliefs on energy, at the expense of 305,000,000 people.

Barack Obama

It is inexcusable, as gas prices are helping to bankrupt Americans. And we know said energy policies failed because a.) Obama's solar pet project companies went bankrupt, adding to the national deficit and b.) nobody can afford gas - even rich people are complaining. So instead of making America billions, as the Judiciary Report suggested three years ago, the Obama administration is costing the nation billions (Obama Is Conflicted Over The Path American Energy Should Take).

I do believe, by the grace of God, there are scientific answers to these problems, but President Obama only throws taxpayer money at his big campaign donors, who aren't really scientists and have the business acumen and brainpower of Fred Flintstone. The Judiciary Report will not applaud this madness, as qualified scientists and the best and brightest of Silicon Valley should have gotten research and business start up money. Obama's campaign donors wasted billions in taxpayer money the nation will not see again.

Obama Is Conflicted Over The Path American Energy Should Take

...And It Is Costing Taxpayers A Bundle

Barack Obama

President Obama stated today that America needs to gain energy independence, but this is something he has acted against throughout his 3-years and 3-months in office. The Judiciary Report supported the Keystone Pipeline that President Obama opposed. Later on, former President and Obama's fellow Democrat, Bill Clinton, came out in support of the Keystone Pipeline.

However, this still did not convince Obama, though Clinton had the most financially successful presidency in American history, where people of different classes prospered. A few years prior, in 2008, the Judiciary Report advocated America using coal for fuel (Congress And Bureaucracy).

Once again, Obama has been against that as well. He's saying one thing and doing another. That is not going to help the U.S. economy rebound. He's lost three years that could have earned and saved the nation billions in energy sales, using the natural resources available in America.

Polls Concur Republican Candidates Are Rating More Favorably With The Public Than President Obama

The Economy Is The Driving Factor

President Barack Obama

Several weeks ago, Gallup polls indicated President Obama, the head of the Democrat Party, is set to lose the November 2012 election by a significant margin. Now the Rasmussen polling company has released its data, revealing Republican frontrunner Mitt Romney and his fellow political party member, Rick Santorum, are several percentage points ahead of President Obama in the polls for the presidency. Romney is carrying the clearest lead.

None of this spells good news for Obama. The economy is the main issue weighing on people's minds, as folks simply can't pay their bills, due to the significant rise in the cost of living in America. Many have lost their homes, cars and savings. Romney's business background is helping him in the polls in this regard.

I don't believe President Obama grasped the severity of the situation when he assumed office, regarding how much damage had been done during the Bush years, but refused to listen to sound advice and spent $5 trillion dollars more. There are always times in life we can learn from history and forbearers, regarding what works and what does not in times of crisis.

Former Massachusetts Governor and Republican Party frontrunner Mitt Romney

Obama entered office with his own ideas and he was and is entitled to that. However, he owed it to the nation to follow the financial examples of those that came before him, who succeeded in office during tough financial times, such as former President Bill Clinton and in Britain, former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. They saw turn arounds and profitability during their tenures, during rough economic times.

Bush and Obama spent America into a hole, following their philosophical beliefs that did not pan out. There ought to be a law that a head of state can only spend a certain amount of money and no more, with rare exceptions granted. It is going to take many years to tackle the national deficit and that is only with a president that knows finance well.

President Obama Abandoned The Buffett Rule Regarding Taxing The Rich

What This Will Mean For The Economy

First Lady Michelle Obama and President Barack Obama

Forbes magazine did a write up on President Obama abandoning the Buffet rule, named after billionaire Warren Buffett, regarding rich people not paying enough taxes in America. President Obama's budget made public this month, contains no such rule, which means less revenues for the treasury to create jobs for the unemployed in America and pay down the massive national deficit. Obama flinched at the last minute, bowing to the rich, when America needs the tax revenue. His new budget is more of the same, which has been unsuccessful for three years.

If I were a head of state, under current economic conditions, as I have maintained in articles for years, I'd raise taxes on the rich. My attitude would be: *rolls eyes* what are they really going to do to me - besides that's what they make bullet proof vests for. Everyday I'd also say to my bodyguards, "We're not married, why are you walking beside and not in front of me - because if they shoot me, I'm going to shoot you. It's easy to remember, if I get shot, you get shot."

Where Did the Buffett Rule Go?

2/15/2012 @ 5:12PM - In last month’s State of the Union address, President Barack Obama endorsed a so-called “Buffett Rule”: an additional alternative minimum tax that would ensure that people making over $1 million would pay at least a 30 percent tax rate. So it comes as some surprise that the President’s budget, released this week, doesn’t contain a Buffett Rule.

In the written budget narrative, Obama lays out broad principles for tax reform, including a call for the Buffett Rule. Other items in that narrative include lower tax rates with fewer deductions and exclusions, making tax incentives more progressive, and “fundamental corporate tax reform.” But none of those proposals are actually scored in the budget tables—while Obama is saying they would be a good idea, he is not proposing them for Fiscal Year 2013. Instead, the White House’s proposals for new revenue are a rehash of what it has proposed in the past...

Financial Experts State The U.S. Economy Is Permanently Damaged

Sustained Economic Deterioration Caused Lasting Damage

Barack Obama

U.S. President Obama has been unable to fix the U.S. economy, which is burdened with stubbornly high unemployment, millions of foreclosures, significantly decreased property values and many shuttered businesses. This month, international experts are now of the belief the U.S. economy will not recover to what it once was, as the damage is so widespread and has persisted for four years, creating a last effect. Experts from Canada (Bank of Canada Governor Mark Carney) and Europe have gone on record voicing these opinions this month.

The Judiciary Report stated the same previously: Ben Bernake Didn't See The Financial Crisis Coming and Wall Street Protesters March Outside The Home Of Greedy CEOs.

The irony is the problems could have been corrected, but Obama’s wasteful spending aided banks and corporate titans, who have hoarded and hidden taxpayer bailout money, rendering it useless to the U.S. economy. However, it has stimulated the off shore banking sectors of foreign economies using the funds to make more money.

President Obama is in bed with Wall Street and the corporate sector, in a manner that has given them free reign to do as they please, which is what caused the crisis in the first place under former President Bush. Rather than taking to task offenders in the corporate sector, President Obama has enriched them with hundreds of billions of dollars in taxpayer money and no ground rules regarding gouging and theft, allowing them to get away with murder against the populace.

It has caused the failure of his presidency and if polls are any indication, he shall not have a second term to correct his damaged legacy in the history books, something his family will have to live with. It is extraordinary what Obama has looked the other way to and the terrible damage it has caused America and the world.

The corporate sector does have the ability to lavish massive campaign donations on Obama, to pay for many commercials and internet ads. However, there aren’t enough people in the corporate sector to get him reelected, under the anger and disappointment of an abused and offended nation of 305,000,000 people, who have lost so much during his tenure.

President Obama's deeds have shown he is not for the working class and the poor, but his filthy rich campaign donors. Under Obama the rich have gotten richer and the poor have gotten poorer. This must stop if America is to have a bright future.

President Obama has been unable to counter Romney’s rise in the polls, which spells bad news for the incumbent’s campaign. Romney doesn’t have the disadvantage of a very bad economy under his belt, as baggage encumbering him in the presidential race for the White House.

President Barack Obama’s State Of The Union Address Was More Of The Same

Time Is Running Out

The First Family

President Barack Obama’s state of the union speech last night was sadly more of the same unfulfilled promises, rehashed in a live format. This is a make or break year for President Obama and he is promising the nation the world, but has not delivered for the past 3-years. The economy is in a bad way and Obama has shot down many projects that would create jobs and revenue.

President Obama Nixes Canadian Oil Pipeline To America That Would Have Created Jobs And Revenues

It's amazing that President Obama gave away $18,500,000,000 in taxpayer money to his campaign donors in the green/solar industries, for companies that have since filed bankruptcy and failed, laying off thousands, yet he nixes the Canadian Oil Pipeline to Texas in America that would have created jobs and revenue. Oil is a proven revenue source. Solar, though it is useful, is not. What is wrong with this picture.

Barack Obama

President Obama scrapping the pipeline is another example of his poor business acumen and terrible choices in the area of economics. This is not good business strategy. America cannot take another term of such poor decision making. President Obama has a bias against oil and gas, as it does not fit with his costly, failure prone green vision for America and it is burning a lot of business people in the nation and abroad. He is not being practical and it is costing America plenty.

Obama Administration Gets Bonuses While Teachers, Police Officers And Firefighters Get Laid Off

President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden

Yesterday, a librarian told me of lay offs that hit the library. People that lost their jobs yesterday, after years of service, because of government cuts. I did not like this, as libraries are great and instrumental in kids and adults expanding their education. Days ago, I saw stories of police officers and firefighters losing their jobs in layoffs as well. Yet, just last week, I read of Obama Administration officials and Congress receiving raises and bonuses totaling millions in taxpayer money.

The government is mismanaging taxpayer money and funds are not reaching the people that need it most to keep the country financially afloat. Wasteful, useless government initiatives that gave billions in taxpayer money to green initiatives and other strange start ups, only for them to fail, while jobs vital to the economy, such as those of teachers, police officers and firefighters are written off in layoffs.

It is infuriating. What exactly is the government doing, because it makes no sense to people with common sense. Furthermore, if the government had not given billions in taxpayer money to green initiatives and agreed to tax increases on America's wealthiest people three years ago when the Judiciary Report suggested both items, there would be enough money to protect the aforementioned vital jobs. Now the government is resorting to laying off teachers, police and firefighters, which is unthinkable.

Bankrupt Solyndra seeking to pay bonuses - Court’s OK sought for ‘incentive plan’

Wednesday, January 11, 2012 - Now seems an unlikely time for handing out bonuses at bankrupt Solyndra LLC, but that’s the plan of company attorneys intending to dole out up to a half-million dollars to persuade key employees to stay put. Nearly two dozen Solyndra employees could receive bonuses ranging from $10,000 to $50,000 each under a proposal filed by Solyndra’s attorneys in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Delaware.

Bernie Sanders, right, gave $2,000 bonuses to 32 people on his personal staff, totaling $64,000. WASHINGTON — As demands for fiscal austerity dominated debate in Washington, Vermont’s three congressional lawmakers gave their staffers a combined $236,830 in bonuses last year. Many other congressional lawmakers also rewarded staffers with year-end bonuses, and the Vermont lawmakers found other ways to save. Each will return a significant amount of unspent office money — about 10 percent of their budgets — to the federal government.

President Obama’s Parade Of Hollywood Stars And Execs At The White House Means No Real Work Is Getting Done

Barack Obama

President Obama has come under fire for having a Hollywood themed Alice In Wonderland party on Halloween 2011 at the White House, replete with actors and actresses from the movie. This week Hollywood stars Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were photographed at the White House in the Oval Office with the president.

A few days ago a scandal erupted again over President Obama leaking classified documents on Osama Bin Laden to Sony for a movie to be released right before the 2012 presidential elections, hoping it will result in votes (uh, no, as the economy is still in negative territory). Any head of state so preoccupied with fame is bound to fail in office, especially in the area of finance, which requires constant focus, concentration and work.

The Obamas and "Alice In Wonderland" cast at the White House

Hollywood is vain entertainment. They know nothing about politics, finance or positive social reform. President Obama has not chosen his company wisely and it has cost him support among everyday folks that do not look to Hollywood for political inspiration.

Mrs. Obama Being Criticized In The Press For Her Expensive Clothes During Hawaii Vacation

The Obamas

First Lady Michelle Obama is being criticized in the mainstream press for the expensive clothes she has been wearing on vacation. It is estimated the dress she is wearing in the photo posted above retails for $2,000. This coupled with the First Family's expensive vacation to Hawaii, costing taxpayers $4,000,000, plus additional costs for Mrs. Obama leaving days early, is not going over well in the press.

Former First Lady Nancy Reagan used to be criticized for wearing expensive designer gowns, but Mrs. Obama has surpassed her spending, much like Mr. Obama has spent more money in office than any other president in U.S. history. The virtues of cost cutting, thrift and leading by example are lost on the First Couple, which is a shame, as the nation is in the midst of a financial crisis that is worsening.

The Election Is Heating Up

Mitt Romney spoke at a campaign gathering recently, slamming President Obama and his handling of the U.S. economy. Everyone from Rick Perry to Newt Gingrich has stated, the U.S. economy cannot withstand another term of Obama in office at the White House. Perry and Romney have the strongest backgrounds in the area of job creation and budget management.

America needs a president that understands finances. Regrettably, President Obama has made very poor financial choices that made the economy worse, after the beating it took under former head of state, George W. Bush. If America does not get a finacially astute president in the White House by the will of the people in 2012, the nation's financial fortunes will take a greater turn for the worse.

What Will 2012 Bring The U.S. Economy

There's Trouble Ahead

Barack Obama

Due to choices made by President Obama and members of Congress that backed his decisions, the U.S. economy is headed for more trouble in 2012. The debt load is far too high for any nation. The government continues to spend more than it takes in, which in the realm of common sense, is disaster waiting to happen. If this continues, America (U.S. government) will default on all its debts.

This past weekend it was announced, President Obama, is set to go back to Congress to request $1.2 trillion dollars in new spending. Somebody's going to pay for that and it is going to be the taxpayers. President Obama is saddling the nation's current and future generations with unprecedented debt, while the economy continues to erode.

What Obama is doing is not working and has not worked over the past three years he has been in office. Puzzlingly, he refuses to change course, believing with each massive new round of expenditures, the nation will somehow break out of the financial crisis.

Foreclosures are up, home values are down. The job market is in a terrible state, with many people giving up on finding work. U.S. businesses continue to close at an unprecedented rate. This is not going in the right direction, but President Obama continues down this path.

The U.S. Unemployment Rate Drops To 8.6 Percent On Seasonal Hiring For Christmas

\

Barack Obama

The U.S. unemployment rate dropped in November 2011 largely on seasonal hiring, as stores added job positions to help with the Christmas rush. Many of you can recall seeing "help wanted" signs in November posted in various store windows at malls, plazas and freestanding retailers around the country. This played a significant factor in the unemployment rate dropping from 9.0% to 8.6 %, which is still high. Data also indicates tens of thousands of Americans gave up searching for a job as well, which factors into economic tallies.

The Conference Board has predicted that U.S. President Barack Obama will not be able to turn the economy around before the next election in 2012, via chief economist Bart van Ark's pronouncement, "We are not going to see the recovery that we expect in 2013 to 2016."

Van Ark cites high unemployment and skyrocketing deficits as the main culprit. This has created slow growth that has not been remedied. Van Ark is of the belief America will not return to the growth or employment levels the nation enjoyed prior to the financial crisis. America can recover, but only with the right president that knows that he is doing in the area of economics.
