The President has been going around
our great country calling the Republicans, the “Party of No!” For he claims that measures to improve the
economy have been stalled in the Republican Controlled U.S. House of
Representatives! However, a closer look at the total situation will indeed show
the educated and open American person that Republicans are not the party
standing the way of producing jobs….. but the DEMOCRATS are! Perhaps the President is upset that the
American people voted overwhelmingly to put Republicans in control of the
House, for prior to November, 2010, Democrats were able to shut them out of any
and ALL changes they wished to make in the “new” direction for Socialistic America.



However, should one wish to look at ‘facts,’
rather than ‘fiction,’ the new and improved U.S. House of Representatives has
submitted more than 350 bills to the Senate in which Harry Reid has refused to
bring up for a vote! Included in these bills
are two separate Budget Amendments (required by law) and more than 30 bills to
put Americans back to work! In these “job
bills,” are measures to go forth with the Keystone Pipeline and removal of new
regulations that have thwarted increased offshore oil drilling!



The Houston Chronicle reported today,
that more than 1.5 million jobs can be added by 2015 with current increase in
Natural Gas drilling! Such drilling is
being performed on PRIVATE properties and not subject to the strict regulations
of Federal supervision and increased bureaucratic complications that stall such
great opportunities available to this country’s unemployed! It is important to note that the 1.5 Million
jobs are directly related. Anyone who is familiar with ‘support’ jobs will know
that each job created in the oil field business produces 4 more jobs in support
of new employee hiring’s.

So…. WHO is the real PARTY OF
NO??? Shame, Shame…. Shame on Democrats who
throw rocks in “glass houses!” For IF
one will visit this site below, they will find just what the House of
Representatives has done since the Republicans came in power! Once you have seen these bills, one may wish
to call Harry Reid and tell him to get busy working….. rather than hosting GSA
employees to bubble baths in Las Vegas.

    And THANK GOD the (R)s said no when they did.

    But as to the damaging part of no you have hit the nail on the head.

    You should add Sections on these NOs that are promoted by the (D)s.

    NO- profits, jobs, freedom. No safety for unborn babies. No death penalty for those who deserve it. NO student loans except throught the gov. No choosing who to work for.
    Future "NO" goals of the (D)s-- No guns, No choice in food, No talk radio, No talking about your religion, No protection for your religion (unless it happens to be Islam), No borders, No pride in your accomplishments (that shows you are so selfish...to hog up all the luck involved in accomplishments), No pride in your country (I mean how can we lord it over the other countries like that), And on and on Ad infinitum.

    ..... I think were I Prez, I'd be having a long chat with the Oil Companies who are extracting in/from U S Boundaries, specifically, U S Taxpayer owned property.

    I'd throw a Tax on oil leaving U S and a Tariff on imports. I'd utilize these funds to subsidize prices for the Taxpayer.

    I'd also institute a plan mimicking Alaska Permanent Fund, although I would modify it so that it truly is Taxpayer Owned Resource sold at the benefit of the Taxpayer. It currently has it's flaws in my view.

    Jobs - I'd slam the brakes on ' OPIC ' posthaste !

    Any corporation that ships employment out of the Country will lose Tax Incentives immediately. The product formerly made in the USA, but now made elsewhere, will pay a Tariff on import of that product and the Tariff will directly/specifically subsidize Unemployment.

    Fed Funds - When the Feds gets a wild-hair up it's a$$ such as Solyndra, Keystone Pipeline, Toll Roads, Nuke Power Plant, Seaports, Airports ... anything that is Fed Subsidized .... any Taxpayer on the IRS rolls in the year of that subsidy will each receive a minimum of one Stock Share in said venture. It's our money, why shouldn't we reap or lose on the venture we funded !

    Here are the limitations to Presidential power as outlined in the U.S. Constitution (you know, the document Obama swore an oath to "preserve, protect and defend?"):

    Section 1.

    The executive power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America. He shall hold his office during the term of four years, and, together with the Vice President, chosen for the same term, be elected, as follows:

    Each state shall appoint, in such manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a number of electors, equal to the whole number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or person holding an office of trust or profit under the United States, shall be appointed an elector.

    The electors shall meet in their respective states, and vote by ballot for two persons, of whom one at least shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves. And they shall make a list of all the persons voted for, and of the number of votes for each; which list they shall sign and certify, and transmit sealed to the seat of the government of the United States, directed to the President of the Senate.

And they shall make a list of all the persons voted for, and of the number of votes for each; which list they shall sign and certify, and transmit sealed to the seat of the government of the United States, directed to the President of the Senate. The President of the Senate shall, in the presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the certificates, and the votes shall then be counted. The person having the greatest number of votes shall be the President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of electors appointed; and if there be more than one who have such majority, and have an equal number of votes, then the House of Representatives shall immediately choose by ballot one of them for President; and if no person have a majority, then from the five highest on the list the said House shall in like manner choose the President. But in choosing the President, the votes shall be taken by States, the representation from each state having one vote; A quorum for this purpose shall consist of a member or members from two thirds of the states, and a majority of all the states shall be necessary to a choice. In every case, after the choice of the President, the person having the greatest number of votes of the electors shall be the Vice President. But if there should remain two or more who have equal votes, the Senate shall choose from them by ballot the Vice President.

    The Congress may determine the time of choosing the electors, and the day on which they shall give their votes; which day shall be the same throughout the United States.

    No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the age of thirty five years, and been fourteen Years a resident within the United States.

    In case of the removal of the President from office, or of his death, resignation, or inability to discharge the powers and duties of the said office, the same shall devolve on the Vice President, and the Congress may by law provide for the case of removal, death, resignation or inability, both of the President and Vice President, declaring what officer shall then act as President, and such officer shall act accordingly, until the disability be removed, or a President shall be elected.

    The President shall, at stated times, receive for his services, a compensation, which shall neither be increased nor diminished during the period for which he shall have been elected, and he shall not receive within that period any other emolument from the United States, or any of them.

    Before he enter on the execution of his office, he shall take the following oath or affirmation:--"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

    Section 2.

    The President shall be commander in chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the militia of the several states, when called into the actual service of the United States; he may require the opinion, in writing, of the principal officer in each of the executive departments, upon any subject relating to the duties of their respective offices, and he shall have power to grant reprieves and pardons for offenses against the United States, except in cases of impeachment.

    He shall have power, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, to make treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur; and he shall nominate, and by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, shall appoint ambassadors, other public ministers and consuls, judges of the Supreme Court, and all other officers of the United States, whose appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by law: but the Congress may by law vest the appointment of such inferior officers, as they think proper, in the President alone, in the courts of law, or in the heads of departments.

    The President shall have power to fill up all vacancies that may happen during the recess of the Senate, by granting commissions which shall expire at the end of their next session.

    Section 3.

    He shall from time to time give to the Congress information of the state of the union, and recommend to their consideration such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient; he may, on extraordinary occasions, convene both Houses, or either of them, and in case of disagreement between them, with respect to the time of adjournment, he may adjourn them to such time as he shall think proper; he shall receive ambassadors and other public ministers; he shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed, and shall commission all the officers of the United States.

    Section 4.

    The President, Vice President and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.

  • Bella JP 2012/06/15 22:25:52
    Bella
    There is NO government intrusion in health care because government isn't in healthcare. Hospitals are private businesses. My services are paid via Medicare but government only pays, they have no input to what I choose to do in my treatment plan. Costs are high because of "free riders" who don't buy insurance then expect taxpayers to pick up the bill when they can't afford to pay.

    Government intrusion is requiring the third party payer to pick up the tab without allowing competition in the market.

    Costs aren't going to go down with 45 million "free riders" getting all the access with us still paying the bills.
  • Bella JP 2012/06/16 23:34:28
    Bella
    Medicare does not require any third party payers, it's a direct payment. There is no government intrusion into healthcare at all. You should talk to people who bill Medicare, I do it directly. Because "free riders" will either have to pay into insurance or pay a fine there will be less of a need for taxpayers to pick up the bill. When those who can afford insurance but refuse to buy it ends up needing healthcare it costs taxpay a lot. We are already paying the bills now for "free riders" who could be buying their own insurance and when this stops costs go down.
