Romney’s Acceptance Speech Issues Stinging
Rebuke of Obama
As he accepted the
Republican nomination for president, Mitt Romney issued a stinging rebuke of
President Barack Obama’s 3 1/2 years in office, arguing that Obama’s promise
of hope and change in 2008 “gave way to disappointment and division,” and now
is the time to fix an economy stuck in the doldrums. “What is needed in our
country today is not complicated or profound. It doesn’t take a special
government commission to tell us what America needs. What America needs is
jobs,” Romney told the Republican National Convention on Thursday night. “Lots
of jobs.” It was arguably the most important speech Romney has made, with the
fortunes of the Michigan native’s second presidential run in the balance. His
supporters hoped — and would no doubt claim — that he hit a home run. What was
clear was that the former Massachusetts governor pulled no punches in
describing Obama as he reached out to undecided voters and women — who have
tended to side with his opponent, polls show — with a message that he is
best suited to right a nation struggling to move past the last recession.

Jeb Bush to Obama: Stop Blaming My Brother
The sibling of
former President George W. Bush, before launching into an education-focused
address, said he had to get something “off my chest.” Though the 43rd president
was not in attendance this week in Tampa, Jeb Bush represented the family and
offered a brief-but-pointed rebuttal to what has been recurring criticism by
Democrats of his brother’s term. “Mr. President – It is time to stop blaming
your predecessor for your failed economic policies,” he said. “You were dealt a
tough hand, but your policies have not worked.” Bush said that four years in,
“a real leader would accept responsibility for his actions, and you have not
done it.”

Proud To Be An American - The American
Rebirth
Unlike our
President and his allies on the left, I don't want to make America look more
like the rest of the world. Just when did it become a bad thing to live in
the most free and prosperous nation in the history of mankind? We have nothing
to be ashamed of. We have nothing to apologize for. I am proud to be an
American and am sick and tired of politicians who somehow think that
because we are prosperous, we should feel bad about who we are. If they don't
like it, they should leave and run for office in Venezuela or some other
communist country.
America has been a beacon of hope, helping spread liberty throughout the world and setting an example of what a free society can achieve. Because America prospered, so did much of the world.
About 225 years ago, a group of Patriots came together who believed that individuals had certain unalienable rights. They believed that We the People could decide how to live our lives better than a central government. They also knew that the nation they envisioned would not be won without a hard fight. Men like George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Thomas Stone, Josiah Bartlett and Richard Stockton risked their lives and their fortunes on the ideal that the right of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness is not granted by a central government but by our Creator.
November 6, 2012 will be the day that a majority of voters decide the America we will become. Will it be the America built on the blood and sacrifice of so many great patriots who fought to create and since have defended the principles of liberty and freedom or will it be the America of big government control, crony capitalism and burying our children and grandchildren under a mountain of debt?
Like our Founding Fathers, we are going to have to fight and sacrifice if we are going to protect the Republic they gave us.
Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said something the other day in her speech at the RNC Convention that speaks to the real danger we face: "There is no country on earth including China that can do more harm to America than we can do to ourselves unless will are willing to do the hard work to protect our founding ideals".

Michael Moore: 'Get used to saying President
Romney'
Hell must have
frozen over last night! TAMPA, Fla. – What a difference four years make. Early signs emerging from Democrats during the
Republican National Convention indicate the White House and influential
activists are in a panic, fearing that Gov. Mitt Romney is increasingly likely
to emerge victorious Nov. 6. Moore is concerned with Obama’s inability to raise
money 2008-style.
“Mitt Romney is
going to raise more money than Barack Obama,” Moore told the Huffington Post.
“That should guarantee his victory. I think people should start to practice the
words ‘President Romney.’
“To assume the other
side are just a bunch of ignoramuses who are supported by people who believe
that Adam and Eve rode on dinosaurs 6,000 years ago is to completely misjudge
the opposition,” Moore said.

Fed Chairman Makes Case, in Strong Terms, for
New Action
Mr. Bernanke said
that the Fed’s efforts over the last several years had helped to hasten
economic recovery, that there was a clear need for additional action and that
the likely benefits of new steps to stimulate growth outweighed the potential
costs. “It is important to achieve further progress, particularly in the labor
market,” Mr. Bernanke said. “Taking due account of the uncertainties and limits
of its policy tools, the Federal Reserve will provide additional policy
accommodation as needed to promote a stronger economic recovery and sustained
improvement in labor market conditions in a context of price stability.” “Policies from Congress, not more
short-term stimulus from the Fed, are the ingredients necessary for restoring
growth in the American economy,” Senator Bob Corker, Republican of Tennessee,
said in a statement after Mr. Bernanke’s speech. Then, Mr. Bernanke devoted most of his
remarks to establishing the need for action, largely taking for granted that
the Fed had the power to improve the economy. On Friday, it was the need for
action that Mr. Bernanke took for granted. The question now is how much more
the Fed can do.

How 'The Shy Republican' Could Be Masking a
Landslide By Adam Shaw
While it is not
possible now to get into the many reasons certain people will vote Democrat in
November, I propose that all polls, not just left-leaning polls, may be being
strongly misled by their data, and Romney/Ryan may actually have a huge lead
not seen in polls. It is my contention that this is due to a mix of the
infamous Bradley effect and what is known in Britain as "the Shy Tory
Factor," with both coming together to exaggerate just how popular Obama is
in America. The Bradley effect is a much-debated polling
distortion that is easy to demonstrate but difficult to prove. The
idea that when a black or minority candidate is on the ticket against a white
candidate, certain voters may lie under pressure from a pollster, worried about being seen as a racist for choosing the
white candidate over the minority, sounds highly plausible. The
consequence, should the Bradley effect be in play, would be a skewed poll
indicating that the minority candidate is in better political shape than his or
her opponent. Therefore, there is no reason why we cannot expect at least a
similar Bradley effect this year. In fact, it could possibly be even
stronger -- after all, the liberal smear that those who oppose Obama are racist
is one that really took off since Obama took office, specifically with the rise
of the Tea Party. This could serve only to magnify the Bradley effect, as
some white voters may feel ashamed of being seen as sympathetic to a
"racist" organization. The
other note worth mentioning is that, in the Shy Tory Factor, the only person
who knew of its existence before the election was the leader, whose internal
polling is usually more accurate. Could this be why Obama's team seems to
have gone into panic in recent weeks? Do they know something the polling
companies don't?

Media Strikes Back After Dirty Harry Dares To
Mock Obama Newsflash: Obama can't take a joke. But we
already knew that.
Since Obama won the
presidency, comedy has pretty much gone straight to hell as our Entertainment
Overlords morphed into pathetic lapdogs to The State; begging for scraps of
attention and affection from Obama, and in the process becoming stale, lazy,
dull, predictable, painfully unfunny, and like a needy poodle -- more than a
little annoying. Who would've ever thought that one of the men who would
display enough backbone and "edge" to finally take it to Obama with
wicked mockery on about 30 million live television screens would be 82 year-old
Clint Eastwood? Oh, and the empty chair. Other than an empty suit, there is
no sharper metaphor. 82 years-old, and Dirty Harry is still pissing all
the right people off. My hero.

"But what do we mean by the American
Revolution? Do we mean the American war? The Revolution was effected before the
war commenced. The Revolution was in the minds and hearts of the people; a
change in their religious sentiments, of their duties and obligations... This
radical change in the principles, opinions, sentiments, and affections of the
people was the real American Revolution." --John Adams, letter to H. Niles, 1818

Obama: I Didn’t Do Good Enough Job Selling
Americans On Stimulus Plan ...and you should have
listened more closely!
The president says
he also wants to do a better job of explaining to the public how his policies
will help the economy grow. Obama claims he didn’t do a good enough job selling
Americans on the stimulus plan and the auto company bailout because he was so
focused on acting to fix the economy. “[W]e were in the midst of a
once-in-a-lifetime crisis, so we had to just do stuff fast. And sometimes it
wasn’t popular,” Obama told Time. “And we didn’t have the luxury of six
months to explain exactly what we were doing with the Recovery Act, which was
basically a jobs act and
making-sure-middle-class-families-didn’t-fall-into-poverty act.”

Obama Movie Stunning Hollywood
After another
high-money earning weekend for the movie “2016: Obama’s America,” author and
filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza promises to expand to about 1,600 theaters by next
weekend. Uncomplimentary movie reviews by liberal columnists telling moviegoers
to stay away from the film have not deterred the film’s success so far. Following its expansion to 1,091 screens,
the movie “stunned Hollywood” by taking in an estimated $6.3 million dollars
last weekend, according to its publicity firm. The take for the weekend
translates to the highest per-screen average of any major release and makes it
the highest grossing new film of the weekend.

Wave: GOP Voters at All Time High
According
to new research released today by Rasmussen, more voters identify
themselves as Republican than ever in the last 8 years. More importantly, by a
4 point margin, more voters identify as GOP than Democrat. This is the largest
spread between the parties ever. Worse for Democrats, the number of voters who
identify with their party is also approaching an historic low.
