Mike Huckabee News


President Obama was in Los Angeles last night for another glittery fundraiser with George Clooney, Stevie Wonder, Katy Perry and other stars. But Californians could be forgiven if they were a little more steamed than usual about having to sit in stopped traffic to accommodate Obama’s campaign. The gas they were wasting cost some drivers over $5 a gallon. California already had some of the highest gas prices in the US due to taxes and regulations. But supply disruptions from a power failure and a fire at two refineries have sent prices skyrocketing. Friday alone, they jumped by nearly 20 cents a gallon to a statewide average of $4.49, 70 cents over the national average. And gas can’t be shipped in from neighboring states because the state’s environmental laws require so many complicated formulas.

One woman filling her tank in L.A. lamented to a reporter, “What are they doing to us?!” But you could turn that question around. Californians should look at the politicians they’re helping to elect and ask, “What are we doing to ourselves?”

    We just read an e-mail from a friend stating that Obama had signed 923 exec. orders, some allowing the gov. to take over transportation, media, power, food sources,health, education,airports,railroadsand controls over product distribution,on and on in his first term. Is it true?

    The Vice Presidential debate proved, without a doubt, that Joe Biden is the product of a laughing heyena and Pinocchio. A mendacious fool, who laughs at inappropriate times.

    I don't what the percentage of people that get food stamps and welfare but I would guess 90% of them will vote for obama. I would hate to guess how many Illegal aliens are going to vote in this election and they will vote for Obama. They don't have to prove their citizens. Add the majority of union members that they think they should make $100,000 a year for showing up on the job. I would guess there are not enough honest people left to get Mitt in, people that you should earn money the old fashioned way earn it.

    A JAW DROPPING EVENT TO OBSERVE MR. OBAMA, MRS. CLINTON, & THE AMB TO THE UN SPUE FALSEHOOD, AFTER FALSEHOOD TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE N THE WORLD ON A BOGUS STORY THE THE VICE PRESIDENT NOT ONLY BOUGHT INTO BUT, BECAME CONDESCENDING. ARROGANT, DEFIANT, AND WITH BELLIGERENT DENIAL DEMONSTRATED AN OBNOXIOUSNESS THAT WAS BEYOND THE BEYOND. ALL THESE PLAYERS LIED ABOUT THE EVENT. THE AMBASSADOR & HIS SECURITY DETAIL HAD REPEATEDLY PETITIONED FOR MORE SECURITY. THEY WERE REPEATEDLY TURNED DOWN; REPEATEDLY, RESULTING IN THE DEATHS WE KNOW ABOUT. THEN - THE WORSE PART; WAS THE 'COVER UP.' WHAT'S MORE IS THE 'APOLOGY' THAT OBAMA & CLINTON "FUELED" BY THE ONGOING AD, THEY PAID $70,000 FOR; TELLING THE MUSLIM WORLD ABOUT THE VIDEO THEY DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT. THEN - THROW THE INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY UNDER THE BUS TELLING THE WORLD - THAT "THEY WEREN'T TOLD." DID THEY HAVE TO BE TOLD ABOUT THE DANGERS OVER THERE? APPARENTLY, NO BODY ELSE HAD TO BE TOLD. DID YOU SEE & HEAR AN OBAMA WOMAN DISGRACE HERSELF AND DISGUST US BY TRYING [STILL], IN HER ATTEMPT TO SPIN THE FACTS? DID PEOPLE HEAR STEVE WYNN? HE SAID WHAT I'VE SEEN. AN ATTEMPT TO CREATE THE "DIVIDED STATES." NOT KEEP THE "UNITED STATES." WHO ON THIS PLANET WOULD WANT TO SEE BIDEN AS THE PREZ? MAYBE THE ENEMIES OF THE UNITED STATES. MR. RYAN WAS POISED AND CONTROLLED. THE AMB TO THE UN SHOULD STEP DOWN OR BE TERMINATED. MRS. CLINTON'S NEGLIGENCE AND COVER UP SHOULD BE A SIGNAL FOR HER TO QUIT POLITICS....AND THE PREZ MUST BE VOTED OUT OF OFFICE. THEIR DENIAL OF APPROPRIATE SECURITY FOR AMB. & HIS TEAM IN LIBYA WAS DIRECTLY INVOLVED IN THEIR TRAGIC DEATH. DO THEY REALLY THINK WE'RE STHAT STUPID? EACH TIME THEY SPEAK ON THE MATTER, THEY INSULT OUR INTELLIGENCE. THIS ADMINISTRATION MUST BE REMOVED.

    What frustrates me is that the FACTS are not given, spoken about, nor discussed. People need to do their own research, (that means individuals should read everything) both sides: then, and only then, can an individual make an informed decision. Yes, we all vote with our best interest at heart, but avoiding accurate and TRUTHFUL information is not doing any party justice. If you believe in something, don't be shy, say it out loud, own it! Then be honest and stand up and don't backpeddle.
