Another Obama & Emanuel FAIL? Teen senselessly killed hours after sister heard Obama's speech that didn't mention gangs! Black activists jump and down about the use of the N-Word, but say nothing about GANG violence that is killing them?

OBAMA FAIL: HYDE PARK ADDRESS BEFORE POLITICAL LEADERSHIP OF CHICAGO AND ILLINOIS PROMISES MUCH, FAILS TO ADDRESS THE REAL PROBLEM; GANGS!
Standing in front of all the movers and shakers, in the neighborhood where a 15-year old student was gunned downed by gangbanger, the President speaks obliquely about gun control, but fails to address the real cause of the problem: minority gangs, the source of the majority of gun violence, crime and drugs causing the killing and disruption of life in the neighborhoods of Chicago and similarly situated inner cities. As I have said many times before, it is not a gun control issue, it is a crime control issue. And, the President of the United States, the leadership of the State of Illinois, and the leadership of Chicago stand their like the corrupt liberal ideologues they are and refuse to address the real issue: gangs.
Here are the excerpts of a speech from the nation’s top executive, the President of the United States, in front of the leaders of the City of Chicago and the State of Illinois. All committed liberals, all anti-gun advocates and all disingenuous and dishonest when it comes to telling their constituents the truth …
Remarks By The President On Strengthening The Economy For The Middle Class (Hyde Park Career Academy Chicago, Illinois)
THE PRESIDENT: Hey, Chicago! (Applause.) Hello, Chicago! Hello, everybody. Hello, Hyde Park! (Applause.) It is good to be home! It is good to be home. Everybody have a seat. You all relax. It’s just me. You all know me. It is good to be back home.
A couple of people I want to acknowledge -- first of all, I want to thank your Mayor, my great friend, Rahm Emanuel for his outstanding leadership of the city and his kind introduction. (Applause.) I want to thank everybody here at Hyde Park Academy for welcoming me here today. (Applause.) A couple other people I want to acknowledge -- Governor Pat Quinn is here doing great work down in Springfield. (Applause.) My great friend and senior Senator Dick Durbin is in the house. (Applause.) Congressman Bobby Rush is here. (Applause.) We’re in his district. Attorney General and former seatmate of mine when I was in the state senate, Lisa Madigan. (Applause.) County Board President -- used to be my alderwoman -- Tony Preckwinkle in the house. (Applause.) And I’ve got -- I see a lot of reverend clergy here, but I’m not going to mention them, because if I miss one I’m in trouble. (Laughter.) They’re all friends of mine. They’ve been knowing me.
Some people may not know this, but obviously, this is my old neighborhood. I used to teach right around the corner. This is where Michelle and I met, where we fell in love --
When will this madness stop?
2 questioned in shooting of teen killed hours after sister heard Obama’s speech
Janay McFarlane, 18, was killed late Friday just hours after her younger sister was among a group of teens who were onstage as President Barack Obama gave a speech in Chicago on violence. Two people are being questioned in the shooting death of a Janay McFarlane, who was shot to death in North Chicago hours after her little sister sat just feet away as President Barack Obama spoke in Chicago Friday about the violence plaguing the nation. McFarlane was shot to death hours after her little sister, Destini, 14, sat just feet away as President Barack Obama as he spoke in Chicago Friday about the violence plaguing the nation.
McFarlane, 18, was in North Chicago visiting friends and family. She was with a friend late Friday night when a bullet meant for a friend struck McFarlane, Blakely said.McFarlane was shot once in the head around 11:30 p.m. in an alley in the 1300 block of Jackson Street in the far north suburb, Lake County Coroner Thomas Rudd said. McFarlane had been a student at Hyde Park but left after she got pregnant, according to her mother, who said she was on track to graduate from an alternative school this spring and hoped to make a career in culinary arts.

Woman killed in North Chicago was innocent victim of gang violence says dad
Janay McFarlane, 18, was killed late Friday just hours after her younger sister was among a group of teens who were onstage as President Barack Obama gave a speech in Chicago on violence.
The father of an 18-year-old woman shot to death in North Chicago said Sunday he believes the crime was gang-related and that his daughter was an innocent victim. The victim’s father, Joe McFarlane, said police told him the assailant was aiming for a man who was walking with his daughter to a store. He said Janay was in North Chicago to visit relatives and to attend a cousin’s performance with a dance group.
“I’m from the streets and from what I can gather, this was definitely gang-related,” McFarlane said. He said his daughter was not in any gang.
Bottom line …
When will Obama and his fellow democrat travelers declare gangs as domestic terrorists and purge them from America? You can survive being called the N-word, but you cannot survive a gang bullet. So when are the Reverends Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Jeremiah Wright, Father Phleger, Minister Louis Farrakahn and others radical leftists demand action against the gangs?

RESONANCE: BARACK OBAMA'S SECRET WEAPON
Posted: 17 Feb 2013 06:06 PM PST
I have just finished watching the President’s State of the Union Speech again and much of the coverage in the mainstream media. And, it clearly indicates why the majority of Americans are being disadvantaged by the mainstream media whose historic journalistic ethics and “speaking truth to power” characteristics can no longer be relied upon.
In spite of obvious lies, distortions, half-truths and misdirection – the mainstream media, once again, disregarded the facts and spun the speech as a “brilliant” work. It did not seem to matter that most of the speech was comprised of stale, shop-worn rhetoric from previous campaigns, that Obama was little more than an accomplished actor – reading the TelePrompTered spin-tested words written by others, or that the fact-checking results were not given the same attention as the speech itself.
But, beyond this, it appears that the spin-tested phrases which had the majority of Americans bobbing their heads in agreement meant little or nothing when compared to the executive branch power grab, nullification of congressional authority and the gross and unconstitutional manipulation of the law.
The idea of an increased minimum wage had the lowest end of the employment spectrum bobbing their heads in agreement. But, few – perhaps due to their poor understanding of the subject – did not realize the implications of what the President was saying.
We know our economy is stronger when we reward an honest day’s work with honest wages. But today, a full-time worker making the minimum wage earns $14,500 a year. Even with the tax relief we put in place, a family with two kids that earns the minimum wage still lives below the poverty line. That’s wrong. That’s why, since the last time this Congress raised the minimum wage, 19 states have chosen to bump theirs even higher.
Tonight, let’s declare that in the wealthiest nation on Earth, no one who works full-time should have to live in poverty, and raise the federal minimum wage to $9.00 an hour. (Applause.) We should be able to get that done. (Applause.)
This single step would raise the incomes of millions of working families. It could mean the difference between groceries or the food bank; rent or eviction; scraping by or finally getting ahead. For businesses across the country, it would mean customers with more money in their pockets. And a whole lot of folks out there would probably need less help from government. In fact, working folks shouldn’t have to wait year after year for the minimum wage to go up while CEO pay has never been higher. So here’s an idea that Governor Romney and I actually agreed on last year -- let’s tie the minimum wage to the cost of living, so that it finally becomes a wage you can live on. (Applause.)
But, how many of these head bobbers realize that minimum wage is not the whole story and that you must factor taxes, benefits and other costs into the equation? And, that if the cost of labor significantly increases, prices must also increase to maintain profit margins. And, if profit margins decline, there is less incentive for the employers to provides those goods and services; leading to the outsourcing of jobs or the cessation of businesses. Or, as a common reaction, the reduction of personnel with increased workloads to make up for the increased expenses.
How many of these head-bobbers realize that this will decimate the what little employment exists in the inner cities or kill summer jobs for high school students? Thus, providing additional funds to fewer people in a down economy?
But, the idea of higher wages “resonates” with those who are liberals or are in the lower socio-economic group. Even though it will exacerbate the employment situation and our gross domestic product.
These are the people who elected Barack Obama to the Presidency – believing that this historic elevation of a Black Man to the highest office was the beginning of “true hope and change” in a post-partisan president who would work for the people and not either political party. A resonance kept alive by the mainstream media even though it is demonstrably false and Obama’s actions mark him as an “affirmative action” president of stunning incompetence. An ignorant man who has learned to smile and use high-sounding words, but knows almost nothing other than to use resonance to convince the American people he is serving “We the People.”
A classic case of the Emperor’s New Clothes – officially sanctioned by the mainstream media to the detriment of America.
Bottom line …
The democrats are engaged in a continual campaign, to destroy the republican party and to place American in a dire economic and military position where there is little hope but to cede additional powers to an ever growing public. To accomplish their ends, they must disarm the American public – intellectually by dumbing down education and physically with gun control. They must create a cadre of citizens, perhaps former illegal aliens, who will join the military and have little or no qualms about disarming or firing on American citizens.
I would not be surprised if the republican party continues to cave – playing games with religious and social matters – while our nations economic viability and military prowess are nullified by those in the democrat party. Perhaps, the democrat party should now be denoted with the “Hammer and Sickle” as they go about creating their version of Amerika, a democratic socialist republic heading towards the communist nirvana. Perhaps they are being blackmailed by the democrats who know that the republicans are just as personally corrupt as they are – but make such as show about “family values” that the smallest peccadillos forces them out of the race or to resign their offices.
Did everyone see the misdirection and ridicule heaped on Marco Rubio when he delivered the republican response to Obama’s State of the Union Address. Right out of Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals – where ridicule is a most powerful and effective weapon. Deflecting the message of the speaker into a meaningless horse laugh for late night comedians.
2014 is closer than you think – and is a bulwark against adopting the most radical of the democrat socialist policies. And, if the democrats can keep the republicans talking about religion, abortion and other such nonsense in this time of peril – they will win over America.

Replacing the President’s Sequester with Responsible Spending Cuts, Not More Tax Hikes
FEBRUARY 17, 2013 | VIEW ONLINE
"There is a smarter way to reduce the size of government than to slash defense spending, threaten national security and hurt military families," says Rep. Martha Roby (R-AL) in the Weekly Republican Address. “In fact, the Republican-led House has already voted twice to replace the president’s sequester with targeted spending cuts based on real budget priorities." Watch her here and read more below.
Rep. Roby called on President Obama and Senate Democrats to join House-led efforts to replace his sequester – not with more tax increases, but with responsible spending cuts that help balance the budget in 10 years.
“We’re weeks away from the president’s sequester," said Speaker Boehner, and the president still has “laid out no plan" to replace it. Senate Democrats still haven’t passed a replacement plan of their own either.
"Do Senate Democrats support President Obama’s agenda?" asked Speaker Boehner. If the president wants more ‘stimulus’ spending, more tax hikes, and a national energy tax, Senate Democrats ought to “go ahead and take it up." The GOP will be focused on creating jobs and addressing our debt.

NBC’s TODAY Show highlighted two students from Washington, DC’s successful school choice program that were invited by Speaker Boehner to be his guests for the State of the Union message. Learn more about the Speaker’s other guests here and here.
On February 27, a statue of Rosa Parks will be dedicated in National Statuary Hall in the U.S. Capitol. Speaker Boehner said, “I can’t think of a more fitting honor for a great American hero who still inspires us all."
Speaker Boehner and GOP leaders called on the NLRB to cease all activity until its Members are Constitutionally appointed, noting that doing otherwise “exacerbates the jobs crisis plaguing the nation."
The House voted to overturn President Obama’s automatic pay raise for federal employees, extending the current pay freeze for government workers (including Members of Congress and the president’s Cabinet).
Under President Obama, it takes 30 times longer to get a federal drilling permit than some state and private permits. Energy production on federal land has plummeted and popular projects like Keystone XL remain blocked.
The Hill says the president is waging an “endless campaign," and "stump-style appears are ‘what he’s best at’." Replacing his sequester with responsible cuts that put us on a path to balance the budget in 10 years, submitting a budget, and approving the Keystone XL pipeline would all be more productive.

Any person who, prior to the effective date of this law, was legally in possession of an assault weapon or large capacity magazine shall have ninety days from such effective date to do any of the following without being subject to prosecution.

Guns And Ammo Production Maxed Out
“This is a Society Preparing For War”
(Info Wars) – President Barack Obama is, arguably, the best gun salesman ever. Over 65 million guns have been purchased since the President took office in 2009. FBI background check statistics indicate that, over the last twelve months, Americans purchased a new gun every 1.5 seconds, a figure which suggests there is much more to the recent panic buying than people just stocking up to go hunting or sports shooting.
The following guns and ammo industry report indicates that every major gun and ammunition manufacturer in the country is running at 100% capacity, with many so far behind that they’ve stopped taking new orders altogether.
Smith & Wesson-is running at Full capacity making 300+ guns/day-mainly M&P pistols. They are unable to produce any more guns to help with the shortages.
RUGER: Plans to increase from 75% to 100% in the next 90 days.
FNH: Moving from 50% production to 75% by Feb 1st and 100% by March 1. Remington-Maxed out!
Armalite: Maxed out.
DPMS: Can’t get enough parts to produce any more product.
COLT: Production runs increasing weekly…bottle necked by Bolt carrier’s.
LWRC:Making only black guns, running at full capacity…can’t get enough gun quality steel to make barrels.
Springfield Armory: Only company who can meet demand but are running 30-45 days behind.
AMMO: Every caliber is now Allocated! We are looking at a nation wide shortage of all calibers over the next 9 months. All plants are producing as much ammo as possible w/ of 1 BILLION rounds produced weekly. Most is military followed by L.E. and civilians are third in line.
MAGPUL is behind 1 MILLION mags, do not expect any large quantities of magpul anytime soon.
RELOADERS… ALL Remington, Winchester, CCI & Federal primers are going to ammo FIRST. There are no extra’s for reloading purposes… it could be 6-9 months before things get caught up. Sorry for the bleak news, but now we know what to expect in the coming months. Stay tuned, we’ll keep you posted…
Many who have exercised their Second Amendment protections are first time buyers concerned with Federal and State gun grabs being spearheaded by politicians who are using the Sandy Hook school shooting as a pretext to restrict access to personal defense rifles, larger capacity magazines, and even ammunition.
But this may only be a part of why there’s so much demand. There are millions of Americans who are genuinely concerned with not just the government taking their guns, but all of their other Constitutionally protected freedoms as well.
We understand what happens in regimes that disarm their people. We’ve seen the democide of the last century, which left hundreds of millions of people dead or displaced when their governments turned on them.
We are determined to prevent it from happening in the land of the free.
Manufacturers were running full-bore, but couldn’t come close to keeping up with market demand.
It wasn’t just the AR-15s, the AK-pattern rifles, the M1As, and the FALs that were sold out. It really hit me when I realized that the World War-era M1 Garands, M1 carbines, and Enfield .303s were gone, along with every last shell. Ubiquitous Mosin-Nagants—of which every gun store always seems to have 10-20—were gone. So was their ammo. Only a dust free space marked their passing. I’ve never seen anything like it.
Every weapon of military utility designed within the past 100+ years was gone.
This isn’t a society stocking up on certain guns because they fear they may be banned. This is a society preparing for war.
With over 300 million firearms in America in the hands of private citizens, the people are sending a loud and clear message to their government.
Back off. Stop encroaching on our personal liberties. Limit yourself to your Constitutionally granted powers and nothing more.
You’re not the only ones that are armed.
