John Boehner Is Deliberately Killing 3 Million Construction Jobs
Post Date: 2012-06-21 11:26:11 by Brian S

In the lead-up to the 2010 midterm elections, Republicans, led by John Boehner (R-OH) promised their highest priority was “jobs, jobs, jobs,” and despite offering no concrete plans to stimulate hiring, the nation anticipated some kind of sweeping legislation to get Americans back to work. It is now the lead-up to the 2012 General Election, and Speaker of the House John Boehner says the American people want to know; “where are the jobs?” It has been a year-and-a-half since Boehner and Republicans took control of the House of Representatives and besides not producing any jobs, Boehner has revealed himself to be the most incompetent House leader in recent memory.

Romney Campaign Said to Ask Scott to Downplay Job Gains

Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign asked Florida Governor Rick Scott to tone down his statements heralding improvements in the state’s economy because they clash with the presumptive Republican nominee’s message that the nation is suffering under President Barack Obama, according to two people familiar with the matter. Scott, a Republican, was asked to say that the state’s jobless rate could improve faster under a Romney presidency, according to the people, who asked not to be named. What’s unfolding in Florida highlights a dilemma for the Romney campaign: how to allow Republican governors to take credit for economic improvements in their states while faulting ...

TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) – A new campaign video for a Republican congressional candidate implies that German gun controls contributed to deaths during the Holocaust because people didn't have firearms to defend themselves.By Madalyn Ruggiero, APSamuel Wurzelbacher announced his run for Congress on Oct. 25, 2011, in Toledo, Ohio.The comments quickly drew strong rebukes from Democrats and Jewish organizations.In the video, Samuel Wurzelbacher loads a shotgun and fires at pieces of fruit placed on wooden posts.

Ron Paul Admits He's On Social Security, Even Though He Believes It's Unconstitutional

Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) may rail against Social Security insolvency in the public eye, but that hasn't stopped him from accepting the government checks. The libertarian-leaning Republican and former presidential candidate admitted Wednesday that he accepts Social Security checks just minutes after he called for younger generations to wean themselves off the program, in an interview on MSNBC's "Morning Joe." "I want young people to opt out of Social Security, but my goal isn't to cut," he said. The Huffington Post's Sam Stein then asked Paul, "A bit of a personal question -- Are you on Social Security? Do you get social security checks?" ...
Florida Governor Snubbed by Romney After Political Gaffes

Florida Governor Rick Scott keeps alienating the people he’s trying to befriend. The Republican’s effort to win support from Cuban-Americans resulted in threats of a lawsuit. At a lunch to charm black lawmakers, he offended them. He turned a goodwill mission into comedy-show fodder when he greeted Spain’s king by asking about the monarch’s politically sensitive elephant hunt. The governor’s gaffes, along with an approval rating that hasn’t gone above 41 percent in Quinnipiac University polls, may hurt his party’s presidential contender, Mitt Romney. Florida is one of the most competitive electoral battlegrounds, with the past three presidential races ...
Obama Leads in Poll as Voters View Romney as Out of Touch

Barack Obama has opened a significant lead over Mitt Romney in a Bloomberg National Poll that reflects the presumed Republican nominee’s weaknesses more than the president’s strengths. Obama leads Romney 53 percent to 40 percent among likely voters, even as the public gives him low marks on handling the economy and the deficit, and six in 10 say the nation is headed down the wrong track, according to the poll conducted June 15- 18. The survey shows Romney, a former Massachusetts governor, has yet to repair the damage done to his image during the Republican primary. Thirty-nine percent of Americans view him favorably, about the same as when he announced his presidential candidacy ...

A plurality of Americans now say they are better off than they were when President Barack Obama was inaugurated, providing a surprising lift to Obama’s re- election campaign despite troublesome economic news. Forty-five percent of those surveyed in a Bloomberg National Poll say they are better off than at the beginning of 2009 compared with 36 percent who say they are worse off. In March, poll respondents split almost evenly on that question after having been decidedly negative since the aftermath of the worst recession in seven decades. “I’m just tired of the doom and gloom,” says Jim Seeley, 52, a mortgage banker in Traverse City, Michigan, and a poll respondent, in ...
Ron Paul: 'No Way' On Being Ready To Endorse Romney

(CNN) – While his son came out in support for Mitt Romney last week, Rep. Ron Paul of Texas said Tuesday he won't be following suit. "No. Not ready. No way," Paul said on CNN's "The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer" when asked if he was ready to endorse Romney. In May, the congressman decided to end his active campaigning for president, though he still technically remains a presidential candidate. His son, Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, caused a stir nearly two weeks ago among some of his father's diehard supporters when he announced he was backing the presumptive GOP presidential nominee–a candidate whose more moderate Republican platform contrasts ...

President Barack Obama is winning the opening round in the battle over immigration, according to a Bloomberg poll released today, putting Republicans on the defensive with his decision to end the deportations of some illegal immigrants brought to the U.S. as children, Sixty-four percent of likely voters surveyed after Obama’s June 15 announcement said they agreed with the policy, while 30 percent said they disagreed. Independents backed the decision by better than a two-to-one margin. The results underscore the challenge facing Mitt Romney and Republicans as they try to woo Hispanic voters, who are the nation’s largest ethnic minority and made up 9 percent of the 2008 ...
Bullet-Riddled ‘Obama Library’ Outhouse Appears At Montana GOP Convention

A distasteful outhouse labelled “Obama’s presidential library” raised eyebrows at the Montana GOP convention over the weekend. According to The Missoulian, the wheeled outhouse was riddled with fake bullet holes and contained a fake birth certificate for Barack Obama, which was stamped “bullshit.” Graffiti on the outhouse read “For a Good Time,” and listed fake numbers in reference to first lady Michelle Obama, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi. Many so-called “birthers” believe there is persuasive evidence that Obama was not born in Kenya and created a fake birth certificate to become eligible to be ...

The importance of the Hispanic vote to President Barack Obama’s re-election chances is practically impossible to overstate. Yet the significance of the Hispanic vote to the long-term prospects of the Republican Party is arguably greater still. A Latino Decisions poll of 5 swing states released June 17 revealed that Obama’s executive action to ease the pressure on young illegal immigrants, enabling them to avoid deportation and apply for work permits, has resonated with Hispanic voters. A previous Latino Decisions poll had found widespread discontentment with Obama’s record 1 million deportations; in January, 41 percent of Hispanic voters said they had grown less ...

The American Legislative Exchange Council, under fire for championing voter identification and “Stand Your Ground” gun laws, lost another corporate member yesterday when Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) announced it would leave the Washington-based public policy group. Johnson & Johnson joins more than a dozen other companies, including Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (WMT), McDonald’s Corp. (MCD), and the Coca- Cola Co. (KO) in deciding to leave the organization.

DES MOINES — Rick Santorum won the Iowa caucuses in January, with Mitt Romney a close second, but neither was the true winner this weekend when the delegates who actually will vote at the Republican National Convention were selected. That would be Ron Paul. The congressman from Texas finished a distant third in the Iowa caucuses more than six months ago, but of the 28 delegates selected Friday and Saturday to head to the national convention, 23 are Paul supporters – and they are not bound to support the victor of the state’s first-in-the-nation voting contest. It’s part of a quiet strategy by Paul and his backers to amass an army of supporters at the GOP gathering in ...
Santorum Sticks By Criticism Of Romney, Says He Wouldn't Serve In His Administration [Full Thread]

Rick Santorum is sticking by earlier questions he posed about former rival Mitt Romney's authenticity, saying the points he made during the primary campaign were legitimate. Santorum said Sunday "I don't back away from any of those things." Santorum had also argued in March that Republicans should give President Obama a second term because Romney wasn't conservative enough. The former Pennsylvania senator now says "clearly, the difference between President Obama and Mitt Romney is a chasm." Should Romney win in November, Santorum says he would advise Romney if asked but not serve in his administration. He said: "It's pretty much a flat ...
Michigan Women Lawmakers To Perform ‘Vagina Monologues’ At State Capitol

Women legislators in Michigan will be joined by author Eve Ensler in a performance of Ensler’s 1996 play, “The Vagina Monologues,” on Monday, June 18, according to the Detroit Free Press. The event is intended as a public response to Republican legislators, who, on Wednesday, indefinitely banned two Democratic women legislators from speaking in the Capitol. Their offense? Using the word “vagina.” State Rep. Lisa Brown (D-West Bloomfield) took to the house floor to protest Michigan’s new, draconian anti-abortion law. “I have not asked you to adopt and adhere to my religious beliefs,” she said. “Why are you asking me to adopt yours?

DES MOINES, Iowa — Ron Paul has given up on becoming president. Yet supporters still clinging to the slim-to-none hope of nominating the libertarian-leaning congressman could complicate Mitt Romney’s goal of a peaceful GOP national convention. Paul backers have been taking over state Republican conventions in places like Nevada and Maine and plan to do the same in Iowa on Saturday in their effort to carry his banner to the national convention in Tampa, Fla. “We want to send Ron Paul-inspired folks to that convention to show we’re not going away,” says Iowa Republican David Fischer, a top Paul backer in the state.

A female Democratic state representative in Michigan said Thursday that she has been silenced by her Republican colleagues after she uttered the word “vagina” while criticizing a slate of bills that would restrict female reproductive rights. Michigan State Rep. Lisa Brown (D) made her comments during a Wednesday debate on proposed legislation that critics say could effectively ban abortions in the state. ”I have not asked you to adopt and adhere to my religious beliefs,” she said. “Why are you asking me to adopt yours? And finally, Mr. Speaker, I’m flattered that you’re all so interested in my vagina, but no means no.” ...

The following video from 2008 shows Ron Paul at his finest, explaining that endorsing a candidate you do not believe in just because they are the best of a bad bunch is not the way the American people are going to restore their country to a sound political footing. "Half the people who vote for a president end up voting for the lesser of two evils." the Congressman notes. Paul explains that he had received a phone call from John McCain's campaign requesting that he endorse McCain, who went on to become the eventual GOP nominee. "I don't like the idea of having two or three million people angry at me." Paul continues, adding "The argument was he would do a ...

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) on Tuesday introduced the Preserving Freedom from Unwarranted Surveillance Act, which would require the government to get a warrant before using aerial drones to surveil U.S. citizens. More broadly, Paul's bill is aimed at preventing "unwarranted governmental intrusion" through the use of drones, according to the lawmaker. "Like other tools used to collect information in law enforcement, in order to use drones a warrant needs to be issued," Paul said Tuesday. "Americans going about their everyday lives should not be treated like criminals or terrorists and have their rights infringed upon by military tactics." The bill, S. 3287, ...

Just days after Sen. Rand Paul’s endorsement of Mitt Romney, the Republican National Committee has agreed to allow supporters of Rep. Ron Paul to host a three-day festival right before the GOP convention in Tampa, Florida, Business Insider reports. The move comes one month after the RNC had cancelled the event. Some speculated that this was due to worries about the influence Paul loyalists would have on the convention, but protests and email campaigns by the Texas Congressman’s supporters (and perhaps a Rand Paul endorsement of Romney) paid off. Paul festival organizer Bryan Siemon told Business Insider he expects between at least 30,000 and 40,000 attendees. So far, Ron Paul ...

Democrats have a new hero in Congressman-elect Ron Barber. The onetime aide to former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords won Tuesday's special contest to serve out the remainder of her term and gives the insurgent party new hope to reclaim control of the House this fall. Barber bested Jesse Kelly, Giffords' 2010 opponent, 52 percent to 46 percent. Arizona's 8th Congressional District was a tossup long before the massacre in Tucson that killed six and severely wounded the congresswoman in January 2011. Barber was among the 13 others who were also wounded in the attack. Giffords won her seat in the 2006 wave that swept Democrats to power, in a district where Republicans have a seven-point ...
Arizona Election for Giffords’s Seat a Test in Presidential Race

The outcome of a special election in Arizona today to fill former U.S. Representative Gabrielle Giffords’ seat could highlight the growing influence of independent voters nationwide and provide clues about how voters are leaning in this fall’s presidential contest. The race pits Democrat Ron Barber, 66, a former aide to Giffords, against Republican Jesse Kelly, 30, a construction manager. Giffords resigned in January to focus on her recovery from a gunshot wound she sustained a year earlier while holding a community meeting outside a Tucson, Arizona, supermarket. The winner will serve the remaining six months of Giffords’ term. “Certainly we look at independent voters ...
