Mann to Man

   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mg-e71IDAUw&feature=player_embedded I have written about many questionable events and failed policies that show President Obama and those in his administration are not qualified either by experience, or by action, to govern the United States of America. All are serious displays if incompetence, but none are more egregious than the dereliction of duty in dealing with the massacre of 4 Americans in Benghazi, Libya. While the major news outlets are covering up the facts of this disaster until after the election Nov. 6, as previously reported, there is enough news available from various sources for Americans to learn the truth. And, the truth is damning, not only for agencies such as State, but for President Obama himself. Even DOD Secretary Panetta is pathetic in his commentary! Even Gen. David Patreus' actions are not clear. What does seem clear now is that Predident Obama and his staff knew in real time what was hap...

I have recently written, with concern about the Libyan massacre cover-up, that the media are "in violation of journalistic ethics and standards." Charles Krauthammer writes, with more credibility than I have, that they commit "journalistic malpractice." The Washington Post's endorsement of Obama and two recent columns by Richard Cohen epitomize that phenomenon. Here is a letter I submitted today to The Daily Press, a Tribune paper.   In a recent column Richard Cohen asked, “could a worse candidate than Michelle Bachmann or Herman Cain” have run for president? While not a supporter of either, I rebutted that Barrack Obama met that criterion. Cohen's column today (30 Oct.) might be interpreted as agreeing with my rebuttal, but ignoring it. He notes a litany of failures, disappointments and inadequacies of President Obama and strangely declares him “not in the mold of RFK.” However, Cohen “will vote for Obama,” his rationale being to “prevent Republicans...

The way the murders in Libya were, and are being, handled by President Obama and the administration is abhorrant. This is a disqualifier that has been downplayed, not only by Obama and his people, but by the media as well. It's a travesty, and no president who handles such a critical issue as an act of war, which these attacks were and are, should be re-elected to make more similar mistakes and cover-ups. I suppose few will be convinced at this point, but hopefully some will. Those who are more concerned about such singular, non-critical, issues such as same-sex marriage and are ignorant, or dismissive, of the critical conditions of the nation as debt, national security, and much more, will not be swayed. Their eyes are closed, as are their minds. But, hopefully some who want truth and are open to analyzing real information and data so as to make a decison as to what is best for 100% of Americans, not just a few, will be prompted to seek truth and make decisions accordingly. Mr. O...

Rebuttal To a "misguided" rebuttal of my endorsement editorial, "The Case for Romney," published Sept 19, 2012 and posted here Sept 24. The inaccuracy of Steve Pasco's rebuttal of my September 19 essay delineating reasons Obama should not be reelected was trumped by The Gazette's headline, “Let's Discuss Issues Factually.” My essay is based on fact and honest analysis of Obama's failed policies. But, I agree. Let's talk facts and analyze Pasco's accusations. His essay is highly flawed, disingenuous and misleading. Pasco's assertion that criticism of the Obama administration's policies indicates hatred of Obama is biased and disingenuous. It's wrong, insulting and a disservice to readers. I became active in 2008 to lead people here to defeat Obama (and did overwhelmingly here), not because we hated him, but because we loved America . Research into Obama's background revealed that he had less to qualify him than any...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oi_KaZ53eDg This is a video I wish all Americans, especially blacks and Progressives who use them, could see. I know Bishop Jackson. The first time I met him and heard him speak he opened the speech with, "I'm Bishop Earl Jackson, I am an American, not an African-American, an American. Bishop is a true patriot. I've had him speak to CARMA group here in my town and have met him several times. I am more impressed each time I see him. He is so courageous and could be the best role model any black person, and others, they could have. It always baffles me to think that blacks vote reflexively for Democrats when the Dems simply use them and count on their vote. Barack Obama is no exception! Please listen to Bishop's message to blacks.

This note is to the publisher of The Virginia Gazette that I sent spontaneously after we discussed a rebuttal to an essay and a couple letters from non-thinkers accused me of "half truths," of being disingenuous in telling the truth in a Romney-supporting editorial (published here) of  hatred for Obama. It seems these guys are so accustomed to lying that they think all of us do. It has become the dominant word in their vocabulary and even enhanced after the 1st debate. Honesty is not in their lexicon! More on this in a later post. I am so damn tired of the lying and other scurrilous behavior that I'm about to go into exile again to finish out life's winter season. I quickly wrote off all Republicans except Romney. While he's not ideal to many, I truly believe he has the management acumen to correct major problems and the character to help us get off what I view seriously as a path to perdition. Even with these thoughts, I believe...

Click here: Conservatives Accuse Obama Of Using Racially Charged Rhetoric In 2007 Speech This video and Huffington Post's way of reporting it as basically a conservative hit piece epitomizes some of the negatives of Obama and how far his sycophantic media will go to protect him from himself. We are in an age where the media, those who have the lodest megaphones and the most access to a non-thinking electorate, are the main electors of the president as well as other major offices. Sadly, it is not likely to stop. It's entirely plausible that an Obama reelection will assure that. A state media a la Venezuela is absolutely possible. By the way, Hugo Chavez just announced his support for Obama. In Latin America, many put Chavez, Castro, Evo Morales, and Carrea in the same pod. Not too far-fetched. This election will elucidate it.

Click here: Obama adviser admits: ‘We need death panels’ For those in denial of what Obamacare will do to ration healthcare, this might be helpful. For those who don't care or just accept the misinformation from the Obama administration and prefer to blindly and thoughtlessly stay on the pathe to perdition, it won't matter. No need to read. I'm sure the Obama shills will hastily counter that the writer, Steve Ratner, is Obama's car czar, not healthcare. I can anticipate their rhetoric before they start delivery. I.ve hesitated to use the term "death panels" but it is appropos. Obamacare's 15-member advisory council will alocate healthcare.... not just for senior, but for all. Seniors over 70 will be hardest hit. As one in need of a lung transplant 3+ years ago for survival a few more years, I would surely not be alive under Obamacare. There are a few who oppose my writing who would have preferred that I'd been denied, but I hope there a...

http://www.ktrh.com/pages/mattpatrick.html?article=10449801 It's not likely you'll find this link on such far left websites asThe Pragmatic Progressive.com (an oxymoron!), but it is reality. This depicts the voter who will reelect Obama and, hence, will determine what kind of America we will live in -- a collectivist society (aka Marxism) It's all but impossible to convince people predisposed to vote the "D," or those who buy the misinformation of Obama and the media, of this. But, the reality is that Obama promised to "transform America" and all of his actions show that he means just that. Young people will help make this happen, along with many misguided seniors who vote reflexively for the "D." They will be relegating all Americans to subjugation to the state. Yes, Obama is a true statist. For many of us it won't matter, but for the youth, they are voting to shorten the path to perdition, like lemmings off the cliff. TRAGIC! I...

I'm posting a comment from a reader for more to see. I am in total agreement with the commentary and will write more in a day or two. When I speak of Obama "transforming America" as he has promised, the comments below are exactly what he intends. It should be clear to all.....but isn't. That is what I, and my network, are fighting. I THANK THE COMMENTER FOR THE INSIGHTFUL ASSESSMENT.     Anonymous 27 September, 2012 I have no disagreement with your analysis, but virtually all writers miss the extraordinary ways Obama is altering the bureaucracy and its misuse of laws behind the scenes. While the economic crisis is severe, the poisonous changes throughout government are equally devestating in the short and long term. The "czars" are there for a reason, and that is to transform government from within, while no one is looking or able to ferret out what is taking place. The few reported instances of overriding the Constitution, laws and regulations are ...

This editorial/essay was written at request of, and published by, the Virginia Gazette, a Tribune paper. I address the critical domestic/economic failures. They are profound and disqualify Obama for another term. A piece on foreign policy will issue next. However, The Gazette ran a very good editorial on Sept. 22 by a journalist and a former ambassador who outline failures of Obama is foreign policy. The Times Dispatch ran an editorial on Sunday, Sept. 23 on Obama's failed foreign policies even more compelling than the Gazette piece. How anyone who knows of Obamas's failures can still vote for him is incomprehensible. THE CASE FOR ROMNEY The Virginia Gazette, Wednesday, September 19, 2012 The 20 12 presidential election is the most critical election since 1860. Americans are as polarized now as then and are becoming more so. America has systemic, life-threatening issues. A stagnating economy with structural problems, crushing debt now 109% of GDP(up over 50% in 4 y...

Click here: ROMNEY'S CHARACTER COMES TO LIGHT, AND IT'S DARK INDEED - Yahoo! News It is truly reprehensible, and worse that the media is all-consumed in criticizing Mitt Romney for making a statement about the deplorable anti-American activities, including murder of Americans in LIbYa, while ignoring the fact that the Commander and Chief, Obama, downplays the events. He's been too busy campaigning to govern for 13 months. The major media also are blatantly pro-Obama and showing it. This is the epitome of irresponsibility, but who cares? Surely not Obama supporters. Surely not those who vote reflexively for the "D" although the "D" isn't what it used to be. The major media remain disgustingly complicit with the Obama administrations assertions that America is more respected today than pre-Obama. This is absolutely FALSE. I get comments from many parts of the world...... and they quite different from the administration hype. Just today ...

http://www.onetermmore.com/video.html This is billed as a parody but, in fact, is a scurrilous hit piece against all Republicans....really all who oppose Obama and the far-left radical Progressive push for control of America. It forgoes any semblance of honesty and civility. It is designed to incite hatred in those who support Obama. Unfortunately, it depicts the real nature and attitude of the "progressive (radical left) that have become controlling parasites on the once honorable and proud Democratic Party. If one doesn't recognize the real nature of this video and the real intent of the radical movement to demonize all who oppose them, then one doesn't want to see reality and truth. Fact is that many, if not most, who lean left and think the Democratic Party is what it once was, will buy into it without thought. Sad but true.... traditional America's life hangs in the balance. We are less than 2 months away from determining how deep she is in...

REMEMBERING SEPTEMBER 11, 2001 REFLECTIONS OF BEING STRANDED OUT OF THE USA It was a beautiful September morning in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, as it was in New York. I had enjoyed my favorite Mexican breakfast, machaca nortena (eggs & dried beef, jalapenos, more) and papaya. I bade adios to the smiling breakfast cook and waiter, both of whom always made me feel it was very important to serve me. I checked out of the hotel, chatted with the friendly manager, who asked me if I'd return in one week as usual. No, maybe two to three weeks. After going home, I had to go to Scotland to negotiate a contract with SGL Carbon to convert Mann Industries-Grupo Cydsa carbon fiber precursor into carbon fiber for aircraft brakes. Our recent work had been very successful, the outlook positive. The day was good! Until I entered the waiting car and my driver/engineer said a “small plane had hit a New York Trade Center tower”. Soon, as we drove the 25 minutes to our office and factory...

  I am reprintinn this article from Newsmax of today's date in part to justify my pervious post on who and what caused the meltdown of the economy as I try to dispel the dishonest claims of the Obama supporters ...."failed policies of the past." We had a failure, to be sure, but not quite like Obama, Clinton and their shills report. Note the Clinton-Rubin connection and, of course, Larry Summers who followed as Obama's chief economic advisor after losing a Billion plus dollars for Harvard's endowment fund. Note also Gramm and Gramm-Bliley I referred to. This is the first write I have seen with this specificity since the collapse in 2008. HOWEVER, THE AUTHOR LEAVES OUT ONE IMPORTANT PLAYER WHO SIGNED OFF ON THE LEGISLATION AND ISSUED AN EXECUTIVE ORDER THAT LED TO THE EXPLOSION OF SUB-PRIME MORTGAGES FOR THESE BANKERS TO FEED UPON THROUGH FANNIE MAE AND FREDDIE MAC....... PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON. JAM, 11 SEPT. 2012. The Three Washington Insiders Who Helped Wall S...

Today Newsmax reports that a top official in Iran has stated that "if Israel strikes Iran, Iran will attack the United States. Hezbollah has been building a base in the "Triple Frontier" of S.America for a dozen years or more. I learned of it while stranded in Mexico during 9/11/2001 and reported it soon thereafter. For inexplicable reasons, the political left refused to believe it. in May 2007, it was finally repofted by Telemundo and NBC by a Robert Wundham. By 2001, more than 12,000 reports were available. In spite of these references, when I reported it again in 2001, a leftist activist in my town still called me a liar. He didn't even look at the references. Now there are >120,000 and Hzbollah is infiltratinn Mexico and the drug traffickers. It is incomprehensible that this could become a political issue with the far left ignoring reality and condemning those of us who have firsthand information. A sign of the times. U;timately, this problem can be charged ...

Click here: The wit and wisdom of Nickelodeon’s Jason Biggs; Updated | Twitchy   If you have the stomach for Jason Biggs' scurrilous, vile comments about Ann Romney, Janna Ryan and other women, go this site and be prepared to be sickened. This clown is on Nickelodeon's children's shows. It is even reported by individuals, but not by major media, that he has spoken of chile rape. This is the ultimate abuse of  "free speech" that has become a mantra an a crutch for abrogating all tenets of moral and ethics. Like it or not this is becoming the image of the once proud Democratic Party and is illustrative of the sub-cultural attitude now pervasive in our nation. Once again, the Democratic Party of my forebearers is no more. It is controlled by these sub-cultural miscreants. Why do I say this. The entertainment industry is a haven for leftist activism and support leftist candidates nearly en mass.

ECONOMY – “FAILED POLICIES OF THE PAST LED TO MELTDOWN” – TRUTH VS. OBAMA'S MANTRA --- ( please go to post “Economy of the '90s, " July 11, 2012,  for other major contributing factors to the economy of the '90s, the Clinton presidency. This article is being posted to give some TRUTH regarding the misleading mantra of President Obama and his supporters about “failed policies of the past"  leading to the economic meltdown in 2008. It is also being posted in anticipation of Bill Clinton's Democratic Convention speech. If his preliminary commentary last week is a measure of what he will say in his keynote or nominating speech, CLINTON WILL MAKE THE SAME CLAIMS in spite of the fact that his executive decision in 1994, with Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin's urging, led to the meltdown of the housing industry....and the general economy. I posted on July 11, 2012, an article I published in 2004 about the major factors that contributed to the good...
