Obama Still Campaigning on Hope and Change

Perhaps, President Obama is campaigning on hope and change because he's hoping people will change their mind about him. Better still, he may be running on these (what we know to be false) promises, because the vast majority of Americans are still hoping for change.

It is crazy to think that his campaign camp believes this to be a good idea. To have a president who has run up the deficit more so than any other in history, has put more people on food stamps (along with Pelosi's encouragement when she said that would help the economy), driven gas prices up (the average was under $3 at the end of Bush's Presidency-$2.50), bailed out failed businesses and used funds to create green jobs that went under, allowed his family to take elaborate trips on the tax payers dime, has had no real job creation (counts temporary jobs as creating jobs, does not count the actual number of people out of jobs who do not except Government help or whose help has run out-so the actual number has been between 13%-20%+), seen the standrad of living rise but the pay continue to stay the same or be below what is needed, more college students graduate with no job prospect, is always supporting cuts to defense and sometimes military members and families, has a healthcare plan that will further cause rising costs and problems, claims to have made government operations more public (yea, right), and the home market is still on the decline.

Some claim many things that this president has done, such as, putting the environment first (what about putting the American people first, and not telling them to change vehicles or light bulbs to more expensive ones to accomodate his green agenda?), suporting the capturing and of killing Bin Laden and the Somali(which was a good thing), supporting more stem cell research, education reform (What? Where? Where's the reform, how about jobs for college students who actually graduate?), and ending the war in Iraq. For many, he seems to have done much, but for the majority of Americans, he has changed this country and they are hoping to change Presidents.

Planned Parenthood Pushes For Abortions Based on Gender

According to LifeNews.com/, planned parenthood is supporting abortions based on gender. There is a video showing a worker telling a mother to be, it is ok to abort the baby if it is not the intended gender. The worker tells the woman to get on Medicaid to cover ultrasounds and appointments until the pregnancy is to be terminated.

This is very sad, and has shown that sex selection abortion is in America. It is even more disturbing to listen to someone actually make it seem okay. Even if the worker in the video does not agree with it, how can she just say with no problem, it's okay? However, the worker was fired from her position. Therefore, it could have just been the worker, but in any case, it is still sad.
Michelle Obama Still Trying To Parent American's Diet

Lets be frank, Americans (and many around the world) do not have the healthiest diet. Obesity is a problem, and there are people who need to suck it up and start working out instead of eating out. Although, it is a personal responsibility and is left up to the individual as to how to handle it. However, according to Michelle Obama in a recent interview promoting her new book about obesity, she says this is not about government "telling people what to do."

Perhaps, it is not about government control. However, when the first lady is making comments about manufacturers making food healthier, school lunches meeting certain health criteria (which is totally bogus), and changing restaurant menus and services in order to push for what she believes is healthier service. She has also criticized the military food (which is also understandable), mainly for the food not encouraging soldiers to eat their vegetables, so to speak.

In many ways, Michelle Obama is right in wanting to push for a healthier America. Sometimes it has been hard to do so when her husband and her (at times) go out to eat fries and burgers or other high calorie meals. Even so, America does have an obesity probably, and in many ways it is due to unhealthy convenience food over healthy options. In many cases, it is not the lack of stores with healthy options, it is people who just choose not to eat the healthier item.

Despite what Mrs. Obama claims, in some ways, the government is already trying to control the food industry by way of restaurants and schools. However, as much outrage as that causes for some, imagine if the government tries to control food inside American homes as they are trying to do with kids working on a farm? As much as health is important, and Mrs. Obama is in the right, people need to workout and be healthy, as well as be good healthy role models for children and to reduce many health risk factores, it is wrong to force people to eat a certain way. That is what some seem to be concerned about.

Senate Defense Bill: yes to women in battle, no to biofuels, yes to funding abortions

Last night, the Senate Defense Bill moved forward. The bill has not passed, it has to move on to the Senate floor. Even so, it seems as if women may get a chance to fight in the front lines while expensive biofuels may not be available to the Air Force.

Some other items discussed were; proposals to reduce the civilian workforce, cut aid to Pakistan (over recent 33 year prison sentence of Dr. Afridi), stop military detention on American soil, funding for M1 Abram Tanks, cutting over $500 billion in military budget, women in battle, and not increasing Tricare fees However, one issue discussed and proposed may leave some upset, funding military abortion.

The Ladies of 'The View' Speak Out For S.E. Cupp

Thank you, to the women of the popular morning talk show, 'The View' for supporting S.E. Cupp. So far, 'The View,' seems to be the only ones actually admiting to how degrading and disgusting this is (especially Whoopi Goldberg-thank you), not just for Ms. Cupp, but for all women. No man should disgrace a woman in such a way.

However, Rosanne Barr seems to think differently. In a series of tweets, she made it clear that she believes Ms. Cupp had it coming to her and got what she deserves. As for N.O.W., no word from them, and as for Larry Flynt (who altered and published the article), he is unapologetic. In fact, to read his words, one would think he is doing a happy dance somewhere and giving himself a big pat on the back for what he did. Which shows what a jerk and male chauvinist pig he is.

Others who are supporting Cupp, include Ms. Sandra Fluke. Also, change.org, has a petition to sign. They are also siding with Ms. Cupp. No matter what political views are, this is one action where both sides should be appalled and speaking out against.

Glenn Beck Employee (S.E. Cupp) Is An Unwilling Feature in 'Hustler' Magazine

Anyone who listens to Glenn Beck has heard Samantha Cupp speak or at least heard of her. She is a conservative commentator and writer. Apparently, her conservative values yearned her a fake spot in the recent 'Hustler' magazine.

Due to the graphics of the magazine photo, it will not be on here. Nor will exactly what it says. Lets just say, the liberal left jerk that wrote the piece, stuck something in her mouth to shut her up, thinking it was funny. The reason for the picture is clear, she is conservative and her views are bad, but at the same time she's still 'hot,' so as long as she does not talk about her values, defunding planned parenthood, or anything the writer deemed "dumb."

Glenn Beck had Ms. Cupp on the show, and she apologized for the photo. When in fact, it should be the idiot who is obviously bullying her publicly in a way that is grotesque and demeaning to all women. Where is the President and the far left feminist crowd to talk against this? If this was Pelosi or another top democractic female figure, it would be everywhere and the outrage would be endless. Even though there is a disclaimer, couldn't this still be a form of bullying and disrespect? Could this even be a form of imagined rape or sexual desires played out (not acted on) in an article? It's disgusting, and all women should be angry that anyone would do this to a woman.

In all, since no one on the left has really said anything, and N.O.W. hasn't even responded to the photo in any way (even though it has been sent to them), seems like a slap in the face. It also seems like they don't care, as long as it is not a liberal woman. There is no way to express how hurt she must feel, and how hurt so many women in her position who have to deal with junk like this must feel. So, where is the President on this? Where is the left to yell how there is a "war on women?" Where is Pelosi? Of course, where were they when Olbermann said, Ms. Cupp should have been aborted. No where!
