Eight. Now he’s a liar, again.

Think about Communism for a moment. The reason it was short-lived, was due to the fact they had to force people to embrace it, and partake in actually having their liberties and privileges taken away. If they didn’t, they were forced to participate, and that involved handcuffs, prison, etc.

Keeping that in mind, click below and watch this 2 minute clip.

Representative Michele Bachmann, (R) from Minnesota on Pelosi’s healthcare plan.

Worth spending 7 minutes watching.

I was sent a must read this morning written by Thomas Sowell, a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University. Rather than post bits and pieces here, jump over to his web site, it’s worth the read.

Update 2: Someone else had the foresight to grab it. It’s after the leap, but there’s more.

Update 3:

Burlington Township School District, to which B. Bernice Youngs Elementary School belongs, posted the following Letter to Parents this morning.

Dear Burlington Township Families:

Today we became aware of a video that was placed on the internet which has been reported in the media. The video is of a class of students singing a song about President Obama. The activity took place during Black History Month in 2009, which is recognized each February to honor the contributions of African Americans to our country. Our curriculum studies, honors and recognizes those who serve our country. The recording and distribution of the class activity were unauthorized.

If you have any further questions regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me or Dr. King, Principal of B. Bernice Young School, directly.

Sincerely,
Dr. Christopher M. Manno,
Superintendent of Schools

Backpedal!

————————————————————-

Supposedly, the video was apparently recorded by Charisse Carney-Nunes. At any rate, it first appeared on her YouTube account and was scrubbed earlier this morning once it hit the blogs.

Michelle Malkin has emailed both Carney-Nunes and the principal of the school.

From Michelle Malkin:

I have e-mailed the principal of the school with the following questions:

Did Ms. Carney-Nunes have permission to videotape the performance?

Were parents notified that their children would be participating in this activity prior to the lesson?

Was Ms. Carney-Nunes invited to the school to teach the children the song and about her book, “I am Barack Obama?”

Was the principal aware of this event and taping?

Back to Charisse Carney-Nunes. Via ModernConservative, Carney-Nunes is senior vice president of The Jamestown Project, “the award-winning author of the children’s books, I Am Barack Obama (2009),” and according to her biography, “a graduate of Harvard Law School, where she was a schoolmate of President Obama.” I have e-mailed Carney-Nunes for comment as well.

From Carney-Nunes FaceBook page.

Charisse is the former president of Harvard’s Black Law Students Association of which Barack Obama was a member of in the 90s.

That explains a lot. I wonder if Harvard has a “Crackers Law Students Association?”

Original post:

This is disturbing. It’s a video from an elementary school in Burlington, New Jersey filmed in June of this year. In the video, they’re teaching the children a song that’s right out of the Saul Alinsky playbook. Here’s one verse I find particularly disturbing.

Barack Hussein Obama
He said we must be clear today
Equal work means equal pay
Mmm, mmm, mm!

Video and complete lyrics after the leap.

This cartoon was produced in 1948. It’s worth spending 10 minutes to watch it.

FWIW, the guy in the hat was calling Obama a liar.

One more thing. Remember earlier this week when Obama said his health care plan won’t cover illegal aliens?

Now he says:

“Even though I do not believe we can extend coverage to those who are here illegally, I also don’t simply believe we can simply ignore the fact that our immigration system is broken,” Mr. Obama said Wednesday evening in a speech to the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute. “That’s why I strongly support making sure folks who are here legally have access to affordable, quality health insurance under this plan, just like everybody else.

Mr. Obama added, “If anything, this debate underscores the necessity of passing comprehensive immigration reform and resolving the issue of 12 million undocumented people living and working in this country once and for all.”

Translation: he wants to give amnesty to the 12 million illegal aliens so they can not only get government provided healthcare, but also, so they can vote for him in 2012.

From the JG letters to the editor, and yes, this is the entire letter.

Public option is key to health care reform
We can’t afford to wait for reform.
Reform with a real public option is key to expanding coverage.
A real public health insurance option is crucial to lowering costs.

The “other side” is obviously informed, no? And this begs the question. Just who is asleep at the wheel at the JG editorial department?

Nothing like having an argument with “nothing” to back it up.

And more. It seems the White House has an RFQ (request for quote), that calls for the harvesting of personal information on millions of Americans from social networking websites. The sites include Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, YouTube, Flickr and others – any space where the White House “maintains a presence.”

From Fox:

The refusal by ABC and NBC to run a national ad critical of President Obama’s health care reform plan is raising questions from the group behind the spot — particularly in light of ABC’s health care special aired in prime time last June and hosted at the White House.

[...]

“The ABC Television Network has a long-standing policy that we do not sell time for advertising that presents a partisan position on a controversial public issue,” spokeswoman Susan Sewell said in a written statement. “Just to be clear, this is a policy for the entire network, not just ABC News.”

I just read an interesting article by Caroline Baum at Bloomberg. It starts out with this quote:

“UPS and FedEx are doing just fine. It’s the Post Office that’s always having problems.” — Barack Obama, Aug. 11, 2009

He’s so right, and it’s a fine example of how the government cannot manage running a business.
