ANOTHER SEX SCANDAL FOR DEMOCRATS...
PAPER: Teenager accuses congressman of sexual assault...
Reporters could not verify the young woman’s age. Notes on Facebook over the past 18 months indicate she graduated from high school in 2010. California records show she registered to vote in August.
Update….You won’t believe this. Never mind. You will. News media misidentified Wu as a Republican.
On a related note: Anthony Weiner says he is cured.
Obama: We Should Be Cutting “Defense Spending as Opposed to Food Stamps”
Food Stamps is only one of the food giveaway programs, here is the complete list:
1- Food Stamp Program (now called SNAP – It’s a SNAP to get free food) (note, the territory of Guam is in the food stamp program, 23% of its citizens receive FSs BUT the citizens of Guam pay NO federal income taxes- they just get the freebies, compliments of the stupid American taxpayers)
2- Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC)
3- WIC Farmers Market Nutrition Program
4- National School Lunch Program
5- School Breakfast Program
6- Summer Food Service Program
7- Emergency Food Assistance Program

12 -Nutrition Program for the Elderly
13- Commodity Distribution to Charitable Institutions and to Soup Kitchens and Food Banks
14- Nutrition Education and Training Program
15- Nutrition Assistance Program in Puerto Rico and the Northern Mariana Islands (note – in Puerto Rico 50% of the population is on the program, that’s right – half the population. AND the citizens of Puerto Rico DO NOT pay federal income tax – they just get the freebies, compliments of the stupid American taxpayers. Also, one million Puerto Rico citizens get Medicaid. Mi Salud (My Health), as Medicaid is known in Puerto Rico.)
Worse Than Gunwalker? GrenadeWalker! State Dept. Allegedly Sold Guns to Violent Mexican Drug Cartel
Phil Jordan, a former CIA operative and one-time leader of U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration’s El Paso Intelligence Center, claims that the Obama administration is running guns to the violent Zetas cartel through the direct commercial sale of military grade weapons:
Jordan, who served as director of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration’s El Paso Intelligence Center in 1995, said the Zetas have shipped large amounts of weapons purchased in the Dallas area through El Paso.
Robert “Tosh” Plumlee, a former CIA contract pilot, told the Times he supported Jordan’s allegations, adding that the Zetas have reportedly bought property in the Columbus, N.M., border region to stash weapons and other contraband.
“From the intel, it appears that a company was set up in Mexico to purchase weapons through the U.S. Direct Commercial Sales Program, and that the company may have had a direct link to the Zetas.”
Police State: Big Brother Database to Track Your Every Move
Big Brother database that maps drivers’ whereabouts with police cruiser-mounted scanners that capture thousands of license plates per hour — storing that information indefinitely where local cops, staties, feds and prosecutors could access it as they choose.
“There comes a point where the surveillance is so pervasive and total that it’s a misnomer to call a society free any longer.”

Another Peek Inside The Empty Social Security “Lockbox” — and at President Bush, Who Tried to Reform It In Time
“When the 44th president took office, he made a decision that it was time for the already unsustainable levels of government spending finally to break the bounds of reality and frolic and gambol in the magical fairy kingdom of Spendaholica: This year, the federal government borrows 43 cents of every dollar it spends, a ratio that is unprecedented. Barack Obama would like this to be, as they say, “the new normal” — at least until that 43 cents creeps up a nickel or so, and the United States government is spending twice as much as it takes in, year in, year out, now and forever. If the Republicans refuse to go along with that, well, then the negotiations will collapse and, as he told Scott Pelley on CBS the other night, Gran’ma gets it. That monthly Social Security check? Fuhgeddabouddit. “I cannot guarantee that those checks go out on August 3rd if we haven’t resolved this issue,” declared the president. “Because there may simply not be the money in the coffers to do it.”
“But hang on. I thought the Social Security checks came out of the famous “Social Security trust fund,” whose “trustees” assure us there’s currently $2.6 trillion in there. Which should be enough for the August 3rd check run, shouldn’t it? Golly, to listen to the president, you’d almost get the impression that, by the time you saw the padlock off the old Social Security lockbox, there’s nothing in there but a yellowing IOU and a couple of moths. Indeed, to listen to Obama, one might easily conclude that the whole rotten, stinking edifice of federal government is an accounting trick. And that can’t possibly be so, can it?” (Mark Steyn)
Obama’s threat that there may not be enough money to send out Social Security checks is indeed shocking in light of the claim by leading Democrats, just a few short years ago, that there was NO PROBLEM with Social Security. Remember this?

Now George Bush is misleading us about Social Security.
First George Bush said Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass
destruction and a “mushroom cloud” was imminent. Now, he’s claiming
something equally outrageous; a phony Social Security “crisis.”
George Bush claims Social Security will be “flat broke” and
“bust” by the time today’s workers retire. He says Social Security is
going “bankrupt.” Nothing could be further from the truth.
The facts are that Social Security can meet 100% of its
obligations for the next 37 years with no changes to the current
system, according to the Social Security Administration itself.

The left insisted that President Bush was “misleading” America because the “facts” were that Social Security “could meet 100% of its obligations for the next 37 years wth no changes to the current system.”
The left was wrong, and Bush was right.
So either: (1) Democrats were wrong when they ruthlessly attacked Bush for trying to reform Social Security; or (2) Obama is lying now.
Or both.
The truth is that Bush was right. There is no Social Security “lockbox.” Thanks to years of federal government mismanagement, the entire system is now threatened. The truth is also that Obama has many other areas of spending he can and should cut before he threatens to break the nation’s promise to Americans that the money taken from them by the government under compulsion of law for decades would be returned to them when they reached retirement age.
That solemn promise is about to be broken — UNLESS something changes.
Paul Ryan has offered the only sensible roadmap so far to return the nation to solvency with minimal disruption.
Obama has no plan. His plan is to let the nation go belly up and then seize the opportunity to further reward his political allies and punish his political enemies.
