In a generous gesture, a move befitting of all liberals, the Obama's donated a whopping $15,000 today to relief efforts in Haiti, saying they were inspired by the generosity of the American people in such difficult economic times.

Wow.

A man whose bank account overfloweth, who was so graciously (and absurdly) awarded a $1 MILLION Peace Prize for his heart-felt dedication to his hatred of America and his international apology tour on behalf of America's sovereignity manages 15 grand. Breathtaking, I'm sure.

Sandra Bullock rushed to donate $1 million. Bill Gates, Brad Pitt, and Angelina Jolie individually donated over $1 million. And these are the few we know of.

Now, why would our peace-loving president not sign over his bless-ed check from the USA-haters that are the Nobel Commission-if, in fact, he is a lover of peace and tranquility, wouldn't it be appropos to donate funds for peace to a nation so torn and savaged?

No, no, no- that's not the liberal way. They are factually the party of greed.

Don Willett, a justice of the Texas state Supreme court, explains, "The belief that liberals care more about the poor may scratch a partisan or ideological itch, but the facts are hostile witnesses."

When Syracuse University Professor, Arthur C. Brooks, an independent, authored a study on the topic, he was suprised to learn that:

-Although liberal families incomes average 6% higher than those of conservative families, conservative-headed households give, on average, give 30% more to charity than the average liberal-headed household

-People who reject the idea that "government has a responsibility to reduce income inequality" give an average of four times more than people who accept that proposition

-"In 2000, brows were furrowed in perplexity Vice President Al Gore's charitable contributions, as a percentage of his income, were below the national average: He gave 0.2 percent of his family income, one-seventh of the average of donating households." -George Will, Wash Post

The Biden's "generously" donated 0.2 % of their family income over the last decade, while the Obama's donated 1% in 2007.

In stark contrast, President Bush donated close to 10% in 2007 while the Mccain's donated about 25% in 2006 and 2007.

But, Mr. Obama has had no problem in promising $100 million dollars of tax-payer funds to Haiti, while American personal, compassionate donations to the calamity-torn nation leave me breathless.

Obama LOVES to spread the wealth around… just not his wealth.

obamahealthcareI hope you are all listening to this Dr. President of ours, telling us how we can live, eat, work, and play- all so he can pursue one of the planks of Communism- nationalized healthcare.

Government was never intended to dictate so much of our lives, but those of you who elected him asked for our very own Stalin. Is it that you really think government can tell you best how to live your lives, rather than deciding for yourselves?

Obama has come out and called his naysayers “wrong”, accusing them of “lying.” That reminds me of the kid on the playground- it’s only lying and wrong because it calls him to account, not because it isn’t actually. He also mentioned that raising our taxes to pay for his socialism wouldn’t drop donations. He says, “That’s just statistically untrue!” Statisically, America is THE most generous nation in the world because we don’t have forced charity. Obama and Biden prove this: Last year, Obama made over $4 million dollars in tax returns and gave only 5%. Biden gave less than 1%- not even $1,000! Factually, conservatives give mugh higher amounts than do liberals- and even that is going to have to change when Obama forces our charity, limiting the amount we have to freely give:

-Although liberal families’ incomes average 6 percent higher than those of conservative families, conservative-headed households give, on average, 30 percent more to charity than the average liberal-headed household.- Real Clear Politics

-People who reject the idea that “government has a responsibility to reduce income inequality” give an average of four times more than people who accept that proposition.- Real Clear Politics

These liberals like to claim 46 million uninsured! Let’s disect the facts: a quarter of that 46 million are covered by Medicaid or SCHIP,  another 20% are illegal citizens, the other third are significantly over the poverty level- which leaves about 10 million, or 2 % of the population. 2% and you want to raise my taxes? Income redistribution.

He mentions that it is tax-neutral- wrong! This will cost us all- he admitted it- $1 trillion dollars! As he said, “That is real money.” Notice how he quickly side-stepped that? How can you hear the truth above the roar?

He tries to emphasize that those of us who like our insurance can keep it- wrong again. Jobs who provide insurance will be penalized by higher taxes, or will get horrible rates from the insurance companies, and will no longer be able to provide health insurance. It will become such that we can only get decent rates from going to a single-payer system- BAM! Nationalized healthcare! Don’t let him tell you that it is successful in other countries- any time government gets involved and runs something, you’re just asking for tyranny.

You are guaranteed an increase in euthanasia, infanticide, and abortion as the worth of life is placed in the hands of government to decide. Do you think the government is going to shell out millions of dollars to care for someone diagnosed with a probable terminal cancer? Why would they, they think, they are just delaying the inevitable. Now imagine that person is your son or daughter. Or like in Britain where they aborted 20 babies over an 8 year period for having a club foot- a correctable condition. The government’s picking up the tab, down goes the value of life. Not to mention that people in Canada are waiting years, not days, to have surgeries such as gallbladder removals. And, people, this is NOT free health insurance. We pay for it through our taxes which they will silently raise.

A little off the subject, but worthy of noticing: My husband just noticed at 7-11 that Monster Energy Drinks are now included in the EBT program. You can now buy Monster with your food stamps. Like my husband said, “I don’t want to pay for you to have a Monster, I want to pay for ME to have a Monster!” Gotta love our government!
