The bottom line, however you want to look at it, to Obama’s selection for Supreme Court is for his power only. Not only is Kagen not a correct choice for the nation but for the court as well; especially in this time of war and fiscal challenge.

No matter who it is, everyone you will speak to about Kagan has their own ideas of her but the one thing that stands out within everyone’s response is clear: “No experience in the judicial chambers.” Although many follow that up with other previous members of the Supreme Court and their glowing background as justices, it is not just the experience but what comes along with it that we should be just as concerned with. It is the timing of her arrival.

We are in a time of incredible crisis and, while we await the end of Obama’s reign so we can fully restore ourselves, to place another politically questionable newbie into a lifetime appointment will place us in an even worse place than we are now. Further, even when you look at her experience, some seen through the documents allowed by the Obama administration, you see very strong opinions for the most recently examined and questioned factors of society.

When President Obama was a freshman Senator, he left a lot of markings that, if really examined, would have been warning signs to his plans for power. When it comes to Kagan, we see the same thing through instances such as her attempt to create a bench for herself in less stronghold positions such as president of a law school to evade the military from entering for recruitment purposes.

Another aspect we should be focusing on is the fact that we, being a nation that is gradually being sold off by a president-in-training, should realize putting training wheels on a higher office for anyone leads to dramatic results and aftermaths. If she is placed in this position, we cannot fire her and she will not leave for decades through which she will affect our nation even past her lifetime. This price is a mere fraction we are paying now for allowing our commander-in-training and one we cannot pay; especially now.

One thing that we can take from the error that is Obama, is a lesson that should be learned fast: Training wheels are not allowed on any factor of our government.

Although America has already shown a historic height of dissatisfaction regarding our current President, the most alarming rejection is recently coming from a very surprising sector of politics: members of his own party.  In a recent White House meeting, the nation’s democrat governors grumbled against the recent legal attack on Arizona for their newest immigration enforcement law S.B. 1070. Discussing it Democratic Governor Phil Bredesen said, “Universally the governors are saying, ‘We’ve got to talk about jobs,’ and all of a sudden we have immigration going on.” 

While the statement may bring a sigh of relief to some who are happy to see that at least our state leaders know what really needs attention, deeper within their rejection of the lawsuit, you see nothing but the dangerous hunger of the liberals. Despite this lawsuit being an example of a nation attacking itself from within in an already challenging time, it wasn’t the action that the governors are snubbing but the timing of the action so close to November of 2010. 

It is not problematic that the lawsuit involved an already approved federal law which a state government saw being unused and decided to activate it for their and the nation’s safety, but the timing of its announcement and proceedings is dangerous. Already the words “Democrat” and “incumbent” are dire terms when it comes to the pending November Elections.  It seems now, at least to the democrats, the phrase “immigration lawsuit” may be joining the anti-electoral mix for their reasons however and not the right ones. 

Despite the aggression being felt from within their party, the fight against Arizona not only continues on but may be increased.  At the same time of the meeting, Attorney General Eric Holder stated during an interview that yet another lawsuit is in the process. It was further said that the additional legal action will be regarding prospective racial profiling that may occur by following the law.  This is despite the law actually dictating against racial profiling and, as said before, saying nothing more than what a disregarded federal law had already established.

It is not the timing of the lawsuit Democrats up for re-election should worry about but the lawsuit itself as well as the related attacks from speeches against Arizona to prospective additional lawsuits.  A recent Quinnipiac University poll stated 51 percent support SB-1070, 45 percent believe it is a step to reduce illegal immigration and 76 percent oppose any and all boycotts against Arizona.  Hence, it is the lawsuit that is the error, not the timing. 

Why are they not against the lawsuit as a whole? Because they see the polls and the people who are outside of their office doors ready to vote against them in November. It is not just Obama which will be rewarded by amnesty but all Democrats.  Hence, once again the Democratic Party has shown us once again they have no problem being against us as long as at means the possibility of re-election.   Whether it’s the fact that the nation is literally attacking one of its own or the timing of the announcement and proceedings, the only real action we are seeing is a continuation of a frivolous lawsuit from people who claim to be the party of the Americans.  While they may scream that they know what we need in the end, actions speak louder than words and their current activity screams one word and one word only: AMNESTY.

In an attempt to show face regarding the illegal immigration issue, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency recently began discussing an avenue which they believe shows that they know how to cure the infectious problem.  “Silent Raids”, announced as an immense step in immigration reform, is an activity where Federal Enforcement Agents quietly audit employee records of companies for possible illegal immigrants on their payroll.

            There are many life-sized holes in this objective. The first one is one that stretches an already increasing gap in our nation.  As Republican Senator Jeff Sessions said recently about the possible cure, “Even if discovered, illegal aliens are allowed to seek employment elsewhere.” Only one factor of the lawbreakers regarding this is affected by the action and the real criminals we should be concerned about are walking free.  ICE may not realize it but there are businesses even they haven’t seen not to mention the reality that most illegal workers do not work within paperwork standards but through Cash and other ways of payment. 

            Staying on the aspect of employees, a New York Times article discussing the supposed step toward immigration reform stated that one of the culprits who have been caught employing illegal aliens is applying for a federal guest worker program to import 1,200 short-term workers from countries such as Mexico. In 2006, the NPR reported nearly half of illegal immigrants overstayed their t visas. Hence, the aftermath of this “tough enforcement” is doing nothing more than adding salt to an already infected wound.

            Senator Sessions continued his statement raising yet another gap in this perspective.  Jobs which are already scarce are now being threatened by illegal aliens even further as they attempt to find other avenues of work.  At a time where General Managers of supermarkets have Doctorate Degrees, now we are going to threaten the small but surviving available jobs.  And with the scarcity, the minimum wage availability will plummet with the availability of such cheap labor that, as shown by ICE’s recent actions, can do no wrong.

         Finally, when these “silent” searches occur, the result is that the employer is notified of the discovery and told to remove the aliens immediately. This step not only is flawed considering no real demand is made to the companies once an illegal alien is found on their staff books, but no legal replacement is offered to the businessman. True, many companies see costs but the reality is not all of them can be watched.  

             This is not to say punishment shouldn’t be given to the businesses that employee illegal aliens but considering that the latter actually have the word illegal in their name, some brunt of the force should be felt on their side as well.  Nonetheless, once again the real criminal walks away while the American business is threatened with no replacement and full retribution.

            While ICE Chief John Morton calls this the start of “a culture of compliance” for employers, the real criminals walk free.  This just once again shows what the Administration and his followers really want out of these “work-site roundups”.   In a speech discussing this avenue, President Obama stated the program was to start a path for “a legislative overhaul to give legal status to millions of illegal immigrants”.  Amnesty is the only word in this man’s dictionary when it comes to immigration and it seems now he is no longer shying from saying it out loud.    Although Border Management Strategies President Mark Reed and others may describe this search as one that allows “No trauma, no drama, no families being torn apart,” the nation’s structure may be a different story.

Just hours ago it was announced that Tony West, a member of a group of lawyers who have represented terror suspects and are coined as “The Gitmo 9”, will be leading the Obama Administration in their suit against Arizona.  Arguing against the state taking a federal law that the national law enforcement were not using and making it a state requirement, every day this lawsuit shows more and more its conflicting objective: from being released first on international press to attacking a law that had been on the federal books for years. 

            West, who once represented “American Taliban” John Walker Lindh, later negotiating a 20 year sentence for the 21-year-old terrorist, to me screamed once again whose side our administration is on.  To take a man who has pre-existing involvement with one of the types of people Arizona is fighting to battle against shows the current leadership literally has no feeling or remorse for threatening our nation by attempting to nullify the needed strengthening of our borders.  With West’s help, the “American Taliban” did not face the Government’s most serious charges, including conspiracy to kill Americans and engaging in terrorism.

            Is this the type of person we want telling us how our borders should be?

            The Justice Department, lead by Attorney General Eric Holder, who was already quoted stating he created an opinion on the law before reading it, was already known for their political agenda even before S.B. 1070’s ink was dry.  If anything, this “selection” shows the pure audacity and frivolousness this lawsuit carries.  Someone who will actually attempt to reduce the charges of a terrorist obviously should not be involved in a factor of how some have gotten to us such as the borders.  Nonetheless, here is the blind leading the blind within an empty and costly case while the Americans continue to be at risk.

                When examining the documentation of the lawsuit, you see it states the Justice Department claims the federal government has “preeminent authority” on immigration enforcement and that the Arizona law “disrupts” that balance. What balance are they referring to?  We have already seen from numerous statistics that there is an incredible imbalance in our borders and the state was reacting to this with the enactment of S.B. 1070.  Further, if the “preeminent authority” that the Justice Department supposedly has on the nation’s border security was worth anything Arizona wouldn’t have had to adopt any laws nor be risked or killed by people crossing the borders illegally. 

          Once again we are seeing an administration’s attempt to control our nation for the good of themselves and not for the good of the people.  Once our President realized the real Americans are ready to respond in droves against him in 2010 and 2012, he fought to keep the dream of amnesty alive. America to Obama: Not on our watch.

  If you are a political analyst like my colleagues and myself you knew firsthand what Obama was going to do to the nation even before Election Day approached. However, even the most right wing pundit was surprised when it began to come out that during his White House term, Obama wasn’t just controlling corporations but also elections.             The future of the party and of his power, instead of the nation and its needs, are top of the list for Obama and it seems he doesn’t mind showing it.  However, despite his obvious involvement in the recent revelations regarding controlling the electoral system, Obama seemed to always have a fall guy who really did the acting against our electorate.  From administration members to former Presidents, it seemed the President had electoral Teflon.  In a fact, with comments such as, “nothing inappropriate occurred” despite story-backing emails, many have seen the events fading into the midst and leaving no retribution behind for the White House or the administration. 

           Recently however, he seems to have lost his cover when it comes to recent news regarding the selection of his senatorial successor.  In a recent hearing about the former Gov. Rod Blagojevich’s corruption charges, an Obama emissary stated that on the eve of his Presidential Election the President said he would rather have Valerie Garret beside him in Washington than running for his seat in the Senate. 

           An experientially qualified candidate, Garrett would have made a pretty good contender. However, as we have already seen from previous electoral control actions sure things are the only ones who have a right to run in Obama’s eyes.  The New York Times reported Obama told him he had two criteria for his successor in the Senate: be good for Illinois and be able to get elected.  Before we even were forced to experience his need to control aspects that he should leave alone (corporations, healthcare and our right to have every candidate on the ballot), Obama showed his ability to without worry, restrict the nation as long as it was good for his party’s future.

           Although the charges do involve the former Governor’s “war gaming” regarding the Senatorial seat left by Obama, the testimony and other aspects raise that the former Senator may have kept a hold on his legislative opening even as he began his move for Washington.  Also, while the White House issued a statement declaring that no contact was made between the charged former Governor’s office and Obama, that comment within it carries holes. How could a former legislator now President not be in contact with the leader of his former state?  To blanket the aspect that quickly, declaring no contact had not been made ever, raises flags that something fishy must have happened.

           Nonetheless, Valerie Jarrett, who was politically and experientially qualified for the job, was without warning pushed away from any Senatorial hopes for the good of Obama. Forgoing not only nation’s rights but also Jarrett’s rights, we are seeing now firsthand how much in a self righteous bubble our President is in.  We can only hope that this situation sticks better than the previous ones have stuck to their involved parties, at least till 2012.

  After starting to settle into the idea that the issue regarding their offer to Democratic Candidate Joe Sestak was starting to see the road to the archives and out of the current events sections of newspapers and news programs, The White House awoke to another hit. Current Colorado Democratic Candidate Andrew Romanoff, it has been reported was also offered a position in exchange for dropping out of the current race.

While this is a disruptive situation for any administration, it is realized that this one in particular is being hit harder. During his campaign President Obama verbally prided himself as evading from Washington tricks and what some people believe is “Politics as usual”. In fact, many followers defined his slogan “Change” with statements such as a different government for the people not foreboding the people. However, as we are seeing from recent events that definition may have held less water than previously considered.



When Foxnews broke the story, correspondent and host Neil Cavuto asked “Here we go again?” after announcing the revelation. This within itself reflects the mindset both of the White House and of the public. Despite the rise of Tea Parties there are still many people who are consistently holding by a thread the belief that Obama will lead them well but as current events show, leadership may be the least of their worries. Already, they are attempting to cover up offer number two confirming that Romanoff “applied for a job” apparently believing that was what created the supposed mix up.

The reality is once again a play on words via the current Administration. While we already see “upheaval” meaning “takeover” and “reform” meaning “new taxes”, it seems to the Obama administration “job offer” and “job suggestion” is completely different. In September of 2009, after announcing his candidacy Romanoff received a phone call from White House deputy Chief of Staff Jeff Messina who stated no White House support would be available to him but “suggested” three available positions in the same organization he applied for. Although Messina instilled the lack of White House support as well as the declaration that no position would be definite, his followup email detailing each position cried a bit of a different position.

While White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs confirmed some forms of communication after Romanoff announced his candidacy, the content was not discussed. It has been confirmed that Messina reached out to him to see whether the position Romanoff previously applied for would still be of interest to the Republican candidate. Messina then emailed him three available positions for the same organization Romanoff applied for.

Once again, the nation is shown the true colors of the Obama Administration. With Romanoff’s statement and evidence, it is clear once again that the Administration offered positions to the candidate in exchange for removing himself from the race. No matter what the definition may be to them, it is pretty clear to the people. Further, with less than one thousand days of his candidacy, this shows fear was strong even before primary season that his collegeues’ power was in peril. Maybe he and his politics will be over after all.

From day one of the spill, we have seen that it has left more than tragedy and waste in its path but also a magnifying of exactly what our White House holds: Zero real leadership and continuous degradation of the U.S. Constitution.  While many political experts have said time and time again that our Commander is no more a leader than Kim Jong-il is a fan of freedom, the American people are experiencing this first hand.

            Before the spill, we saw ourselves with a President who, knowing that there were challenges when it came to oil rig safety, still lifted a moratorium and attempted to swipe the words “Drill Baby Drill” from the Right Wing leaders.  Saying it was not a decision he made lightly, he went forward with the plans.  Americans, who were rightly tired of the reliance on foreign oil, breathed a sigh of relief not only for the oil but to have seen an act from the most inactive President.
      Then we saw the explosion and things changed within seconds.  After the tragedy, the nation waited for some form of response from the man who said he was a citizen’s leader. While a horrific and tragic oil spill, Obama continues accusing everyone but himself for any if at all blame for the damage, death and destruction.  Finally, we have the administration strong-arm the BP companies for money many affected Americans probably won’t see for nothing other than another piece of the American corporate pie, and now we are left with the largest boom regarding this news event ever.

            Barack Obama, who has consistently attempted to keep any bit of the oil spill off of what he actually believes is an untarnished presidency, was told about “issues” in April by Energy and Climate Policy Director Carol Browner regarding the BP spill earlier than any strong action occurred from the Governmental entity.  In fact, not only were impacting related events involved in the discussion, but also the pending damage that would occur in the near to distant future and how hard it would be to plug up the hole left by the explosion. 

             After being told he was told that no repair such as a cap of this type has ever been done and would pretty much need to be created independently, action was required but denied.  So far, the response has been nothing more than a “fund”, families wondering how they are going to survive as their financial resource turns black and an Oval Office Speech that not only made the President a joke but also the American People. 

Throughout every situation regarding this challenging national event, we are being watched and as we see our President discuss and work on everything but BP. Hence, a CEO on a yacht is the least of our worries.  We should not just be asking BP questions but also our own President. We are his employees and frankly his progress report would get any usual employee fired.
