There can be no doubt that Obama is a racist with his “us against them” speech. He is a discussing excuse for a man. One that will deliberately place race against race, religion against religion and income status against income status. All so this narcissistic man can ignore the American people and continue his agenda to destroy this country from within. Appalling!

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama came out swinging against Republicans in a fiery campaign-season speech to black lawmakers Saturday night, urging them to "guard the change" he was delivering with the kind of organizing that propelled the civil rights movement.
With the GOP hoping to regain power on Capitol Hill in the November election, Obama described his adversaries as "a crowd ... that wants to do what's right politically, instead of what's right — period." He never named the opposing party, referring to it as "the other side."
"I need everybody here to go back to your neighborhoods, and your workplaces, to your churches, and barbershops, and beauty shops. Tell them we have more work to do. Tell them we can't wait to organize. Tell them that the time for action is now," Obama said in his remarks.
The words of America's first black president showed a deliberate effort to recapture the enthusiasm that had helped him win the White House in 2008, after polls showed African- Americans much less likely to vote than whites this year.
Thank you for coming to the Mad American Club. Here everyone can post comments and suggest topics to discuss. We all are Americans that care for the future of our country, we just defer at times on how that future looks and how to get there

Democrats stand and clap when Obama lies
Not true!
Supreme Court Justice Alito declared Obama's statement as "not true". That is twice in as many State of The Union Speeches that somebody has called President Obama a liar.
Congressman Joe Wilson in 2009 yelled out "You Lie" during the State of The Union Speech
Is Obama on a roll to become the new world leader of documented lies?

Courts, Stress and Death
Stress kills!
I am a perfect example of the effects of high levels of stress. At 49 all my tests were great, blood pressure good, PSA good, weight and overall health good. I hunted, fished and played with my sons and wife. We attended church together as a family, had friends and family over and enjoyed life. The boys activities were a major point in our lives and we all traveled together.
Then came back my ex wife with a vengeance. The nightmare started, and all of the things I did for enjoyment stopped and the focus became court issues.
During this time I had remarried (4 years) to a very smart and beautiful woman, This caused my ex wife of several years to start a campaign of evil. Even though I was ignorant of Parental Alienation at the time, it was very apparent that My ex wife did her best at every opportunity to bad mouth me and my wife to my sons and anyone in the community that would listen. She was and still is very angry and bitter. It seems she cannot elevate herself or herself esteem so she attempts to harm the reputation of others, to bring them down to, or below the level she feels herself in.
Long story short, (just in this blog, much more to come) My wife and I had full custody of my sons. My ex had gambled and partied away her money and after 7 cars and 2 houses, and many boyfriends (wrote me an e-mail that she had young men standing in line) all of the divorce settlement worth over $80,000 and filed bankruptcy .
It had been agreed that my ex wife would keep the children under her work health care because she stated that it only cost her $8 to do so, (I am self employed). That was fine until my ex wife had the need to cause problems. The year I was 49 my ex would not pay anything for the kids health care and raised the deductable to $3,000. After many attempts to get her to pay, including clarification from the court, She just said no to any payments and to take her to court. My wife and I paid the total deductable on my ex wife’s health care policy for that year (over $3,000) with nothing from her. My blood pressure started to climb and I was put on medication.
Later a court battle started over custody of the boys. My ex wife was broke and after finding out that I had a great cherry harvest and a super income year, put a plan in place to steal the children from me. She had always threatened to get a huge amount of child support from me but without having custody of the boys she could not. So starts the escalation of Parental Alienation and laying a ground work within people she knew. Bottom line is that with lies told by her and her attorney and statements made to the court by my two sons who were being mentally manipulated, (documented by a child psychologist the boys were court ordered to see, that it is the worst case of parental alienation that he had ever seen) stole my sons from me and branded me as abusive. This was in December of my 49th year. By March of the next year the court battle and lies continued. My heart was broken and my currant wife and I were having huge marital problems from this issue. I turned 50 and my PSA started to climb. Within 9 months it was confirmed I had cancer.
The reality is that excessive, stress can actually kill you. It can take a very healthy body and destroy it within months. When you're stressed, your body produces the hormone cortisol, which is designed to get your rear in gear as part of the fight-or-flight mechanism. However, this hormone is meant to be released only occasionally in small doses - when stress causes it to be secreted for long periods of time, the body reacts with a variety of different health consequences.
The following are seven of the major health effects caused by stress. If you're experiencing any of these conditions and believe they may be linked to stress, seek medical counseling as soon as possible:
1. Diabetes
Diabetes occurs when the body produces too little insulin to process all the sugars in your body. As these sugars build up, you may experience a number of health problems including thirst, headaches and weight loss. Over time, the condition can cause complications ranging from heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, eye damage, nerve damage, diabetic neuropathy, skin conditions, and gastrointestinal problems.
2. High Blood Pressure
High blood pressure is often referred to as a "silent killer" because there are few actual symptoms that present with the disease. High levels of stress can bring on this condition, which can result in an aneurysm,
coronary heart disease, enlarged heart, damage to the brain and even heart attack. If that isn't a good enough reason to learn to manage your stress - I don't know what is!
3. Weight Gain
People under high levels of stress often experience fluctuations in weight - as anyone who's ever taken comfort in candy bars knows all to well. However, if your weight gain gets out of control, you could be putting yourself at risk for developing cancer, heart problems, high blood pressure, diabetes, stroke, sleep apnea, liver disease and gallbladder disease. If you notice that you've put on a few pounds, try hitting the gym - exercise is also a natural stress reliever.
4. Susceptibility to Disease
Your body can only do so much - when you're under constant pressure, its resources are being diverted to help respond to stress. This leaves the immune system compromised and susceptible to infection by viruses and bacteria. If you've ever noticed yourself coming down with a bug when you're at your most stressed, it isn't just a coincidence - it's your body letting you know that you're under too much stress to handle safely.
5. Depression
Constant stress can make you feel like there's no way out of your predicament, which can eventually lead to feelings of hopelessness and depression. Depression is a serious disease - it's nothing to take lightly. If you find yourself feeling trapped by feelings of despair and despondency, seek professional help immediately.
6. Heart Disease
Type A people beware - stress can and does cause heart disease and heart attacks. Stress contributes to the buildup of plaque in the arteries. As the arteries narrow, the heart has to push the blood even harder to distribute it throughout the body. Over time, this extra stress on the heart can have devastating effects.
7. Cancer
While there's no proven link between stress and cancer, it's widely accepted that excessive stress is a risk factor for developing a type of this deadly disease. Overall, stress weakens the immune system which may allow cancerous tissues to develop and flourish. If you feel that excessive negative stress is causing your immune system to break down, seek help to learn effective stress management techniques that allow you to cope properly.

Is Barack Obama a Racist?
"That's just how white folks will do you." -- Barack Obama
It is true? Is the president of the United States of America a closet racist?
Or is he really in the closet at all?
Perhaps, we did not listen, we did not ask, we did not investigate and worst, we relied on others to tell the truth and inform us.
I’m just very sad and sorry for America today.
You judge the video and its content, send me your comments.
More Obama Bombshell Audio Uncovered.
(His hypocrisy on race and divisive, negative comments about white people have been found!! This is straight from the audio book of Obama's biography, unfiltered and unedited. This video exposes the racism at the heart of the rhetoric!!! )
SHOCKING Obama words: bombshell anti-white audio uncovered!

Destroying the best heath care system in the world
Well, does anyone have any doubt that Obama and his administration wants to destroy the health care system we have in the United States of America?
It is just amazing to see how fast he changes his approach and speech depending on the audience.
If you are a democrat, Obama is your man that will deliver universal health care. A dream that you and he have had for many years now. Soon, all people around the world will look at you as the worlds savoir.
If you are republican, Mr. Obama will just give you an option that you may choose…and this choice will lower the cost of your insurance. This will lower your expense involved with your employee benefit package, thus you will make more money!
Everyone must agree that this will be a government run program right!
Right, we all know that.
Please send me a list of all the Government run programs you feel are cost effective, justified and are a benefit to your livelihood that only the government can provide.
Then send me a list of government run programs that are being investigated, failed, corrupt, have no benefit, are going bankrupt, need more government funding to continue and send me your reasons why the US government should expand its list of failures to include health care. I what to understand this.
Listen to the words yourself in the video.

Courts destroy children
A father who was taken to court by his 12-year-old daughter after he grounded her in has lost his appeal.
Superior Court rejected the father's appeal of a lower court ruling that said his punishment was too severe for the wrongs he said his daughter committed.
Unbelievable!
In its ruling the court of appeal declared the girl was caught up in a "very rare" set of circumstances, and her father didn't have sufficient grounds to contest the court's earlier decision.
The family's legal wrangling started with a dispute over the girl's internet use.
She had been living with her father after her parents split up when he grounded her for defying his order to stay off the internet. The father caught her chatting on websites he had blocked, and alleged his daughter was posting "inappropriate pictures" of herself online. Pay attention, she is a 12 year old girl with a caring and concerned father!
Her punishment: she was banned from her Grade 6 graduation trip, for which her mother had already granted permission. (doesn’t live with mother)
The father who had custody, withheld his written permission for the trip, prompting the school to refuse to let the girl go with her classmates.
That's when the girl asked for help from the lawyer who represented her in her parents' separation, and petitioned the court to intervene in her case. (because she was grounded for disobeying her father) (not beaten, not rejected…GROUNDED!)
"Going to court was a last resort," said the attorney who represented the girl. The question was that there was a problem between the father and the mother, and the child asked the court to intervene because it was important to her.
"The trip was very important to her." A 12 year old girl that deserved to be grounded, and a stupid attorney took her case?
The legal battle destroyed father-daughter relationship.
A lower court ruled in the girl's favor. She went on the trip, but her father appealed the decision on the principle of the matter.
The girl who now lives with her mother, (who will let the little brat do whatever she wants) doesn't have much of a relationship with her dad now. (Go figure, that is what happens when the non custodial parent does not support the custodial parent…ever heard of parental alienation, it's the willful rape of a childs mind!)
We went from a child who wanted to live with her father, and after all this has been done, they're not speaking anymore.
I believe the ruling reflects a loss of any morality in the court system.
Is this what we want in our society? Laws are supposed to reflect our values. And if the courts aren't reflecting that, maybe it’s time; we the citizens take back control of the courts from the corrupt Judges and Evil Money Grabbing Attorneys that control them!
In its ruling, the appeal court warned the case should not be seen as an open invitation for children to take legal action every time they're grounded. Really, just what kind of precedent does the court think this ruling sets?
Doesn’t matter, fact is now, the father has no authority over this child anymore. She sued him (a 12 year old kid) because she doesn't respect his rules. It's very hard to raise a child who is the boss.
What have we done…and what are we doing to our children?

Obama promotes socialism during speech.

Nope, can’t do it. I apologize but this man is not my president. I will not support or condone his agenda to destroy America. This man, his beliefs and political policy, if adopted, will lead to the total down fall of what we call freedom in the United States.
Never before would I say or think such a thing about this country or it’s leader. Not even Bill Clinton or Jimmy Carder could have arouse such a feeling of betrayal in me.
If you listen to Obama last night, you can have no doubt to his plan of action. He will take over health care. You will not have choices as to your treatment or your doctor. You will not have private medical options or even the option to pay for different treatment. This was clear in his response to questions! He will break the best medical system in the world and do so, for the benefit of gaining power and control over your lives. He and liberals believe that you are to stupid to make choices or decisions on your own. If you trust your family, your job, your money and your future to Obama…he will promise to take care of you. The sad thing is, many people living in America embrace this idea as good and caring. They want to be taken care of, to be provided for, to have life’s decisions taken away from them so they won’t have the chance of failing on their own. Without failure, there is no victory. No feeling of accomplishment or pride. Without those basic feelings for a man, he will lose himself, fall into the trap of compliancy. No different than a male animal that has been castrated. Once Obama has completed the operation on Americans, this country as we know it will no longer exist.
My friends, not only did he want to control the health care system, he wants to cap what the private sector can do. He wants to expand government so that it competes more directly with the private capitalist system that we have. How would you like to compete with a business that can change the laws to benefit themselves and if in financial trouble, can just print more money and blame any short comings on someone, anyone, but themselves.
I heard Obama blame the banks and corporate America for the crises, for making bad loans that could not be paid back. He never mentioned that the US government mandated that those loans must be made, (every American should be able to own a house). This government program told the banks to loan money to people they would not have loaned to before. These customers were at risk and the banks did not want to make those loans. The liberals called this discrimination, guaranteed those loans and made it very clear that if the banks refused to make such a loan, the bank itself would be held in contempt of the declared policy. Not good for banks!
Bottom line, banks made bad loans, congress blames the banks and Obama cashes in.
Obama now owns banks, owns an automobile manufacture and is after the insurance industry.
Just how much will you let the government control?
The United Sates was built on the ideas of our fore fathers. Are those the ideals that we follow today?
REREAD THEM!!!

North Koreas missile misses.....earth
North Korea fires a missile, it goes off path and hits Jupiter.
Ok, well not really, but today as I listened to the 6 o clock news at 5:30… hee hee, ok I will straighten up and get back to my old self tomorrow.
Anyway, did you hear about the thing that hit Jupiter and blew a hole in its atmosphere? The hole is the size of plant earth and this whole (ha ha, sorry) event happened 2 days ago! We hear about it today and then…during the report…Ha Ha…the news guys (on a very prominent national station) made this comment, and NASA is not for sure what to do about it. I could not believe someone would say that! What are we to do Mr. Newsman? Maybe we could have Obama and Gore do some kind of save the plant dance and the whole in Jupiter’s atmosphere would just close. The arrogance, the lack of common sense, the irresponsibility of the news media could not be more apparent. They have no idea what they are doing or saying. They simple repeat what is fed to them by the liberal idiots that really run the networks.
Where do you get your news???

The arrogance, the lack of common sense, the irresponsibility of the news media could not be more apparent. They have no idea what they are doing or saying. They simple repeat what is fed to them by the liberal idiots that really run the networks.
Where do you get your news???

Belly up to the Obama bar and understand markets
An Easily Understandable Explanation of Derivative Markets
Heidi is the proprietor of a bar in Detroit. She realizes that virtually all of her customers are unemployed alcoholics and, as such, can no longer afford to patronize her bar. To solve this problem, she comes up with new marketing plan that allows her customers to drink now, but pay later.
She keeps track of the drinks consumed on a ledger (thereby granting the customers loans).
Word gets around about Heidi's "drink now, pay later" marketing strategy and, as a result, increasing numbers of customers flood into Heidi's bar. Soon she has the largest sales volume for any bar in Detroit.
By providing her customers' freedom from immediate payment demands, Heidi gets no resistance when, at regular intervals, she substantially increases her prices for wine and beer, the most consumed beverages. Consequently, Heidi's gross sales volume increases massively.
A young and dynamic vice-president at the local bank recognizes that these customer debts constitute valuable future assets and increases Heidi's borrowing limit. He sees no reason for any undue concern, since he has the debts of the unemployed alcoholics as collateral.
At the bank's corporate headquarters, expert traders transform these customer loans into DRINKBONDS, ALKIBONDS and PUKEBONDS. These securities are then bundled and traded on international security markets. Naive investors don't really understand that the securities being sold to them as AAA secured bonds are really the debts of unemployed alcoholics.
Nevertheless, the bond prices continuously climb, and the securities soon become the hottest-selling items for some of the nation's leading brokerage houses.
One day, even though the bond prices are still climbing, a risk manager at the original local bank decides that the time has come to demand payment on the debts incurred by the drinkers at Heidi's bar. He so informs Heidi.
Heidi then demands payment from her alcoholic patrons, but being unemployed alcoholics they cannot pay back their drinking debts. Since, Heidi cannot fulfill her loan obligations she is forced into bankruptcy. The bar closes and the eleven employees lose their jobs.
Overnight, DRINKBONDS, ALKIBONDS and PUKEBONDS drop in price by 90%. The collapsed bond asset value destroys the banks liquidity and prevents it from issuing new loans, thus freezing credit and economic activity in the community.
The suppliers of Heidi's bar had granted her generous payment extensions and had invested their firms' pension funds in the various BOND securities. They find they are now faced with having to write off her bad debt and with losing over 90% of the presumed value of the bonds. Her wine supplier also claims bankruptcy, closing the doors on a family business that had endured for three generations, her beer supplier is taken over by a competitor, who immediately closes the local plant and lays off 150 workers.
Fortunately though, the bank, the brokerage houses and their respective executives are saved and bailed out by a multi-billion dollar no-strings attached cash infusion from the Government. The funds required for this bailout are obtained by new taxes levied on employed, middle-class, non-drinkers.

Dealing with Bullies
Bullying is a big problem. It can make kids feel hurt, scared, sick, lonely, embarrassed and sad. Bullies might hit, kick, or push to hurt people, or use words to call names, threaten, tease, or scare them. A bully might say mean things about someone, grab a kid's stuff, make fun of someone, or leave a kid out of the group on purpose. Some bullies threaten people or try to make them do things they don't want to do.
Bullying Is a Big Deal
Bullying is a big problem that affects lots of kids. Three-quarters of all kids say they have been bullied or teased. Being bullied can make kids feel really bad. The stress of dealing with bullies can make kids feel sick.
Bullying can make kids not want to play outside or go to school. It's hard to keep your mind on schoolwork when you're worried about how you're going to deal with the bully near your locker. Bullying bothers everyone — and not just the kids who are getting picked on. Bullying can make school a place of fear and can lead to more violence and more stress for everyone.
Why Do Bullies Act That Way?
Some bullies are looking for attention. They might think bullying is a way to be popular or to get what they want. Most bullies are trying to make themselves feel more important. When they pick on someone else, it can make them feel big and powerful.
Some bullies come from families where everyone is angry and shouting all the time. They may think that being angry, calling names, and pushing people around is a normal way to act. Some bullies are copying what they've seen someone else do. Some have been bullied themselves.
Sometimes bullies know that what they are doing or saying hurts other people. But other bullies may not really know how hurtful their actions can be. Most bullies don't understand or care about the feelings of others.
Bullies often pick on someone they think they can have power over. They might pick on kids who get upset easily or who have trouble sticking up for themselves. Getting a big reaction out of someone can make bullies feel like they have the power they want. Sometimes bullies pick on someone who is smarter than they are or different from them in some way. Sometimes bullies just pick on a kid for no reason at all.
Gemma told her mom that this one kid was picking on her for having red hair and freckles. She wanted to be like the other kids but she couldn’t change those things about herself. Finally Gemma made friends at her local swimming pool with a girl who wished she had red hair like Gemma's. The two girls became great friends and she learned to ignore the mean girl's taunts at school.
Bullying: How to Handle It
So now you know that bullying is a big problem that affects a lot of kids, but what do you do if someone is bullying you? Our advice falls into two categories: preventing a run-in with the bully, and what to do if you end up face-to-face with the bully.
Preventing a run-in with a bully:
Don't give the bully a chance. As much as you can, avoid the bully. You can't go into hiding or skip class, of course. But if you can take a different route and avoid him or her, do so.
Stand tall and be brave. When you're scared of another person, you're probably not feeling your bravest. But sometimes just acting brave is enough to stop a bully. How does a brave person look and act? Stand tall and you'll send the message: "Don't mess with me." It's easier to feel brave when you feel good about yourself. See the next tip!
Feel good about you. Nobody's perfect, but what can you do to look and feel your best? Maybe you'd like to be more fit. If so, maybe you'll decide to get more exercise, watch less TV, and eat healthier snacks. Or maybe you feel you look best when you shower in the morning before school. If so, you could decide to get up a little earlier so you can be clean and refreshed for the school day.
Get a buddy (and be a buddy). Two is better than one if you're trying to avoid being bullied. Make a plan to walk with a friend or two on the way to school or recess or lunch or wherever you think you might meet the bully. Offer to do the same if a friend is having bully trouble. Get involved if you see bullying going on in your school — tell an adult, stick up for the kid being bullied, and tell the bully to stop.
If the bully says or does something to you:
Ignore the bully. If you can, try your best to ignore the bully's threats. Pretend you don't hear them and walk away quickly to a place of safety. Bullies want a big reaction to their teasing and meanness. Acting as if you don't notice and don't care is like giving no reaction at all, and this just might stop a bully's behavior.
Stand up for yourself. Pretend to feel really brave and confident. Tell the bully "No! Stop it!" in a loud voice. Then walk away, or run if you have to. Kids also can stand up for each other by telling a bully to stop teasing or scaring someone else, and then walk away together. If a bully wants you to do something that you don't want to do — say "no!" and walk away. If you do what a bully says to do, they will likely keep bullying you. Bullies tend to bully kids who don't stick up for themselves.
Don't bully back. Don't hit, kick, or push back to deal with someone bullying you or your friends. Fighting back just satisfies a bully and it's dangerous, too, because someone could get hurt. You're also likely to get in trouble. It's best to stay with others, stay safe, and get help from an adult.
Don't show your feelings. Plan ahead. How can you stop yourself from getting angry or showing you're upset? Try distracting yourself (counting backwards from 100, spelling the word 'turtle' backwards, etc.) to keep your mind occupied until you are out of the situation and somewhere safe where you can show your feelings.
Tell an adult. If you are being bullied, it's very important to tell an adult. Find someone you trust and go and tell them what is happening to you. Teachers, principals, parents, and lunchroom helpers at school can all help to stop bullying. Sometimes bullies stop as soon as a teacher finds out because they're afraid that they will be punished by parents. This is not tattling on someone who has done something small — bullying is wrong and it helps if everyone who gets bullied or sees someone being bullied speaks up.
What Happens to Bullies?
In the end, most bullies wind up in trouble. If they keep acting mean and hurtful, sooner or later they may have only a few friends left — usually other kids who are just like them. The power they wanted slips away fast. Other kids move on and leave bullies behind.
Luis lived in fear of Brian — every day he would give his lunch money to Brian but he still beat him up. He said that if Luis ever told anyone he would beat him up in front of all the other kids in his class. Luis even cried one day and another girl told everyone that he was a baby and had been crying. Luis was embarrassed and felt so bad about himself and about school. Finally, Brian got caught threatening Luis and they were both sent to the school counselor. Brian got in a lot of trouble at home. Over time, Brian learned how to make friends and ask his parents for lunch money. Luis never wanted to be friends with Brian but he did learn to act strong and more confident around him.
Some kids who bully blame others. But every kid has a choice about how to act. Some kids who bully realize that they don't get the respect they want by threatening others. They may have thought that bullying would make them popular, but they soon find out that other kids just think of them as trouble-making losers.
The good news is that kids who are bullies can learn to change their behavior. Teachers, counselors, and parents can help. So can watching kids who treat others fairly and with respect. Bullies can change if they learn to use their power in positive ways. In the end, whether bullies decide to change their ways is up to them. Some bullies turn into great kids. Some bullies never learn.
But no one needs to put up with a bully's behavior. If you or someone you know is bothered by a bully, talk to someone you trust. Everyone has the right to feel safe, and being bullied makes people feel unsafe. Tell someone about it and keep telling until something is done.
