More Of What They Do & Say

Speaking of Hope and Change... this lays out the foundational basis of the progressive underpinnings of that mantra and how is was embraced by most Democrats and some Republicans all the while aided and abetted by a fawning mainstream media.  It is a sad, sad story... the price now being paid will not end soon.  It is and will continue to be painful for our nation for a very, very long time.   http://www.nationalreview.com/article/394701/epitaph-hope-and-change-victor-davis-hanson

Using the mantra above Obama declared that he would fundamentally transform America.  He sure has done that and then some.  Here's more to add to sad story.   http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2014/12/how_to_fundamentally_transform_the_culture_of_america.html

The government lavishes support for illegal aliens while it fleeces the tax paying citizens.   http://libertynewsnow.com/illegals-line-benefits-work-permits-obama-amnesty/article415? 

This Nobel laureate economist should withdraw from the public scene because as the author notes he is mostly wrong with his proclamations.  His use of insulting language against anyone who disagrees with him is a typical leftist tactic when caught being wrong.  Attack the messenger when unable to attack the message.  He is an embarrassment.  http://finance.townhall.com/columnists/michaelschaus/2014/12/17/stupid-is-as-krugman-does-n1932898/page/full

Millennials voted for Obama in huge numbers.  They were sucked in by his 2008 hope and change mantra.  But no more.  His policies have hurt them as well as most Americans.  Quote: "In 1980, according to the Census, 14.1 percent of the total population ages 18 to 34 were living in poverty, which is determined by the millennial’s income in the past 12 months. In 1990, the percentage of millennials in poverty increased to 14.3 percent. In 2000, it climbed to 15.3 percent. And in 2009-2013 it reached the highest level recorded in the dataset of 19.7 percent."  http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/ali-meyer/1-5-millennials-live-poverty-census-bureau-says

If that is not bad enough read this.  Quote: "The number of beneficiaries who receive compensation from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), otherwise known as food stamps, has topped 46,000,000 for 37 straight months, according to data released by the Department of Agriculture (USDA).  In September 2014, which is the latest data from the USDA, there were 46,459,998 Americans who received assistance from the SNAP program. The number of beneficiaries has exceeded 46 million since September 2011, a total of 37 months, or more than three years."   http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/ali-meyer/food-stamp-beneficiaries-exceed-46000000-37-straight-months
