Obama first mentor Ayers with Obama, used Tax payers money to rebuild Chicago, under the need to provide housing to people who needed it. His new mentors are the Clintons.

Hillary's first mentor set up Arkansas Development Finance Authority to do the same. Hillary's Rose Law firm to process all loan applications which were laundered through BCCI. Bill Clinton as governor had to sign off on every loan. The Pay to Play system was laundering millions of cocaine dollars, and putting money in shell companies like Park-O-Meter. This is well documented in The Clinton Chronicles. Hillary later practiced what she had learned with Peter Paul with the added twist of destroying her doner. Documented in the film Hillary Uncensored are clear violations on her part of Federal Election law.

Obama managed to get the nomination for the Democratic Party without being completely vetted to the American people. He (Obama) has not even shown his Eligibility or Barry Soetoro whatever the case may be?

Are tax payers going to trust but not verify these people? If we due-diligently look at history, this will fail. We will go down in history as the generation that squandered our children inheritance; if not judged for something worse.

The Green Job Myth Exposed

Late last year we called into question the credibility of a Center for American Progress "study" purporting to show how how many "green collar jobs" $100 billion in government spending on "green investments" would create. CAP did not take kindly to our criticism.

Now four academics have taken a closer look at that CAP study as well as reports from three other organizations including the American Solar Energy Society, the U.S. Conference of Mayors, and the United Nations Environmental Programme. York College of Pennsylvania Dean Dr. William Bogart describes their findings:

Economic analysis is not a matter of justifying policy goals by making optimistic assumptions and ignoring those realities that fail to support your objectives. Our work here clearly shows that the foundations of these "green" jobs claims do not measure up to the kind of research standards we should demand when evaluating change in direction for our economy.

Their report goes on to identify Seven Myths of Green Jobs, including:

1. Myth: Everyone understands what a green job is.

Reality: No standard definition of a green job exists.

2. Myth: Creating green jobs will boost productive employment.

Reality: Green jobs estimates include huge numbers of clerical, bureaucratic, and administrative positions that do not produce goods and services for consumption.

3. Myth: Green jobs forecasts are reliable.

Reality: The green jobs studies made estimates using poor economic models based on dubious assumptions.

4. Myth: Green jobs promote employment growth.

Reality: By promoting more jobs instead of more productivity, the green jobs described in the literature encourage low-paying jobs in less desirable conditions. Economic growth cannot be ordered by Congress or by the United Nations. Government interference - such as restricting successful technologies in favor of speculative technologies favored by special interests - will generate stagnation.

5. Myth: The world economy can be remade by reducing trade and relying on local production and reduced consumption without dramatically decreasing our standard of living.

Reality: History shows that nations cannot produce everything their citizens need or desire. People and firms have talents that allow specialization that make goods and services ever more efficient and lower-cost, thereby enriching society.

6. Myth: Government mandates are a substitute for free markets.

Reality: Companies react more swiftly and efficiently to the demands of their customers and markets, than to cumbersome government mandates.

7. Myth: Imposing technological progress by regulation is desirable.

Reality: Some technologies preferred by the green jobs studies are not capable of efficiently reaching the scale necessary to meet today's demands and could be counterproductive to environmental quality.

Obama's New Jobs Success: For Creating New Lobbyist Jobs, That Is

Well, President Obama really does have some success at new jobs creation that he can proudly point to as evidence that his "stimulus" is working. Apparently, Democrat staffers are fleeing the Hill for K Street, that swanky address where so many lobbying firms have taken up residence in D.C. Not only have Democrat aides been finding some great new jobs in lobbying firms, but they're getting premium salaries, to boot. These Democrat aids turned lobbyists are commanding $350,000 to $450,000 salaries on K Street.

Democrats made the bill available at 11 p.m. on Thursday night. At 9 a.m. Friday morning, the House begins debate on the bill. If members of Congress actually took the time to read the bill, they would have to read through the night at a rate of 626 words per minute before heading to the House floor.

Democrat Leaders Hold Midnight Meeting, Freeze GOP out of "Stimulus" Negotiations

House and Senate leaders have struck a tentative deal on a stimulus package with a top-line figure of $789.5 billion, Democratic aides said this morning. The overall mix of funding and tax provisions remains to be hashed out. One disappointment for President Obama is likely to be a scaled-back "Making Work Pay" tax credit of $400 for individuals and $800 for married couples, which falls short of his goal of $500 and $1,000. But those figures would still meet Obama's goal of providing a tax credit to 95 percent of working families. Conferees are scheduled to meet at 3 p.m. today, although that will largely be a formality. Democratic aides said House Speaker Pelosi intends to bring the bill to the floor Thursday, followed by Sente passage Friday.

The Moral Bankruptcy Behind the Bailouts

"Government budgets are moral documents," is the often quoted line from Jim Wallis of Sojourners and other religious left leaders. Wallis also adds that "When politicians present their budgets, they are really presenting their priorities." There is perhaps no better example of a spending bill lacking moral soundness than the current stimulus package being debated in the U.S. Senate.

In my commentary this week, "The Moral Bankruptcy Behind the Bailouts," I offer clear reasons how spending more does not equate to morality, but quite the opposite in this case.

In fact, among many believers it seems that Christian thrift is lost as a value altogether. We forget how important financial responsibility and thrift was to the entire Christian tradition as important evidence of outward faith and devotion. Jordan Ballor offers some great words in his own commentary last year titled "The Fourth Pillar of the New Economy: Spend all you can:"

The ACLJ discovered a little-known provision in the stimulus package that prohibits higher education facilities that accept federal stimulus funds from permitting religious groups and organizations from using those facilities.

"This is an unacceptable provision that clearly discriminates against religious organizations that have a legal right to use these facilities," said Jay Sekulow, Chief Counsel of the ACLJ.

How Government Prolonged the Depression

By HAROLD L. COLE and LEE E. OHANIAN, WSJ:

The New Deal is widely perceived to have ended the Great Depression, and this has led many to support a "new" New Deal to address the current crisis. But the facts do not support the perception that FDR's policies shortened the Depression, or that similar policies will pull our nation out of its current economic downturn.

A man selling apples during the Great Depression.

The goal of the New Deal was to get Americans back to work. But the New Deal didn't restore employment. In fact, there was even less work on average during the New Deal than before FDR took office. Total hours worked per adult, including government employees, were 18% below their 1929 level between 1930-32, but were 23% lower on average during the New Deal (1933-39). Private hours worked were even lower after FDR took office, averaging 27% below their 1929 level, compared to 18% lower between in 1930-32.

Even comparing hours worked at the end of 1930s to those at the beginning of FDR's presidency doesn't paint a picture of recovery. Total hours worked per adult in 1939 remained about 21% below their 1929 level, compared to a decline of 27% in 1933. And it wasn't just work that remained scarce during the New Deal. Per capita consumption did not recover at all, remaining 25% below its trend level throughout the New Deal, and per-capita nonresidential investment averaged about 60% below trend. The Great Depression clearly continued long after FDR took office.

Why wasn't the Depression followed by a vigorous recovery, like every other cycle? It should have been.

Green Jobs Will Not Come From Tax Incentives

Watching Gibbs give a press briefing is like watching a post debate spin room interview. The suggestion that was made today was that green jobs will come from tax incentives. The example was wind turbines with a reference to a recent visit by President Obama to a blade factory.

What is missing is the reality that has been absent from the early days of the campaign. Wind, biofuel, solar, and other more exotic green energy solutions rely heavily on project financing. Wind is almost 90% project financed. If there is no financing available due to banks not lending then the wind industry will stop. Checking major projects listed, one can see that some are being cancelled, others delayed, and new negotiations have stopped.

Stimulus Plan: Just a Big Bailout of Failed Governments and Programs

There was good news and bad news in the the House Democrat's latest so-called stimulus plan. The good news is that the bill's authors heeded the skepticism shared by many fiscal conservatives, and resisted the intense campaign of many lobbyists to make a massive spending commitment to transportation infrastructure -- only about 7 percent of proposed spending is for transportation. Conservatives argued that an infrastructure spending plan would have only a limited impact on jobs and the recovery because such projects take many months to get off the ground and many years to complete, and thus offer little immediate relief in this most difficult of times for the economy and its workers.

Robert Reich: Keep stimulus money away from skilled workers and "white male contractors"

... People can be trained relatively quickly for these sorts of jobs, as well as many infrastructure j0bs generated by the stimulus -- installing new pipes for water and sewage systems, repairing and upgrading equipment, basic construction -- but contractors have to be nudged both to provide the training and to do the hiring.

I'd suggest that all contracts entered into with stimulus funds require contractors to provide at least 20 percent of jobs to the long-term unemployed and to people with incomes at or below 200 percent of the federal poverty level. And at least 2 percent of project funds should be allocated to such training. In addition, advantage should be taken of buildings trades apprenticeships -- wich must be fully available to women and minorities. ...

Obama is not trying to solve the economic crisis. He is using the crisis to socialize America

"Not letting a good crisis go to waste." This idea popped up multiple times in the past seven days as multiple members of Obama's administration seemed to be in total agreement. Their conclusion: by not quickly solving the crisis of the American economy, we can create drastic social and structural change. Not surprisingly, this is the path even President Obama alluded to in his Saturday address to the nation.

... "We the People" were promised swift and effective action towards getting the markets repaired by President Obama, but they have dropped about 1400 points each week since he's taken power.
