Obama’s White Brother..

Romney Explains Why He Can’t Beat Obama - David Catron, Am. Spectator

via RealClearPolitics

It will, however, be very easy for Obama and his creatures to exploit Romney’s flip-flops in the general election. They will make sure the voters understand that these reversals reveal Romney as just another unprincipled politician willing to say anything to win the election. That the President himself is cut of the same cloth won’t matter. The reporters and bloggers whose job it is to point that out will be dutifully reciting White House talking points. One wonders if, after his resultant loss in November, Romney will find this “worth getting angry about.”

Why you misandrist! Jehmu Greene CAN’T stop pointing her finger.

Pointing Fingers: Fox News Panelist Asks Media To Cover Racism In #Occupy Movement

Video via Breitbart

Jehmu Greene, former president of the Women’s Media Center, and radio host / Tea Party 365 co-founder David Webb had a heated exchange on Megyn Kelly‘s panel this afternoon discussing if there was any racism in the gesture by AZ Governor Jan Brewer. Greene started off the discussion with the premise that the Governor is not racist, but that the gesture had deep-seeded racial undertones. Webb discarded Greene’s points and instead asked why the media to cover the racism within the Occupy movement.

Greetings to our constituents, fellow Floridians, and all Americans.  As I sit here writing this, I am recovering from the soreness of running the ING Miami Half-Marathon Sunday.   I finished respectfully around 2 hrs, 7 mins and really hit a wall at 10 miles- photo here. It was great to be out with some 25,000 runners trekking across Biscayne Bay, South Beach and Miami. With my hectic Congressional schedule, it is definitely difficult to get in the long distance training runs like I once was able. I just have to face the truth, getting older and I just do not have the speed I once did!

This past week was certainly highlighted by the President’s State of the Union Address. I can actually sum it up with one simple quote: “The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public’s money”- Alexis de Tocqueville, Democracy in America.

As I sat in the chamber of the House of Representatives taking notes on the speech, it came to my attention that President Obama seeks to bribe the American people with more largesse from the public treasury. He obviously will not recognize that these types of fiscal policies will be the detriment of our beloved Republic.  Never was there a mention in the State of the Union of our growing federal debt which for the first time since World War II is greater than our GDP. It is a debt which the President must confess responsibility for increasing under his watch. Americans can more easily accept mistakes and failure, if someone steps up and accepts responsibility. We believe in redemption as a Judeo-Christian Nation.  However, the rhetoric of divisiveness and envy is an indicator of a lack of accepting responsibility of failure.   There wasn’t any talk during his State of the Union of how we can reduce the three straight years of record setting trillion dollar plus deficits. As a basis of comparison, President George W. Bush’s largest annual deficit came in 2008 (Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid were the leadership in the United States Congress) and it was $500 billion.

The President’s State of the Union also did not address the almost trillion dollar stimulus which was supposed to keep unemployment under eight percent and according to Obama Administration estimates, would currently be at 6.5 percent.   We heard nothing about the healthcare law which is falling apart, and how  the costs of our small business insurance premiums have risen.

Lastly, I noticed the President avoided the topic of Dodd-Frank in his  State of the Union, probably because one would have to admit it is killing our small financial institutions and precluding them from lending to our small business entrepreneurs.  We must return to the Glass-Steagall Act to restore financial institution responsibility.

As I entered the chamber of the House of Representative that night, I had such expectation and hope, that maybe, just maybe, the President’ sense of being an American would override his personal far left liberal ideology. Somewhere down inside I had hope that we would hear a President that understood that American exceptionalism does not come from Washington D.C., but rather it is a unique trait born into every American, and assimilated into all those who come to our shores.

I hoped that President Obama would come to accept and empower the ideal of an indomitable American will and spirit which makes us the greatest nation the world has ever known.   President Ronald Reagan recognized and embodied that American spirit and that is why a comparative analysis shows he had an average 6.4 percent GDP growth at this time in his Presidency. President Obama has a 2.4 percent GDP growth.

The Republican led House of Representatives has passed 30 pieces of job creating policy legislation. See more here.  Twenty-seven of them sit on Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s desk. Most of these pieces of legislation directly address the challenges President Obama articulated in his State of the Union. The fact that the following day President Obama took off to several critical western states for his reelection campaign says it all.

President Obama called this speech, “An Economy Built to Last.”  I also want an economy built to last; however, not based on the foundation that President Obama says he is building on.

In closing,  the Republican Florida Primary will finally be upon us tomorrow and it is my wish that our candidates would view the movie “Gladiator.” In the scene when they first stood in the Coliseum, the character Maximus stated: “Whatever comes out of that gate, if we all fight together we shall survive.” Our Republican candidates must “together” make the moral argument to the American people of the detrimental effect of President Obama’s failed policies.  We need to let the people make the decision as to who is best to be our Gladiator to enter the arena.   Always remember, the contrast of  vision is simple.  Ask yourself,  Is America a country of equality of opportunity (Economic Freedom) or equality of achievement (Economic Dependency)?

Roasted Vegetable Salsa

By The Gluten Free Goddess
WebMD Recipe from Foodily.com

Why buy jarred salsa when making your own is so easy? This is a mild and flavorful salsa recipe perfect for those who find fiery fare a tad too harsh. This mild salsa is delicious on grilled fish- or grilled anything, for that matter.

Ingredients

1 pint (2 cups) of baby plum/grape tomatoes, halved
1 red pepper, cored, seeded, cut into thick strips
1 red or sweet onion, peeled, cut into chunks
5-6 garlic cloves
Extra virgin olive oil, as needed
Sea salt, to taste
3/4 cup corn kernels
1 14-oz can Fire Roasted Tomatoes with Green Chiles
1-2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
A squeeze of organic raw agave  syrup, to taste
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Instructions

Combine in a bowl and toss:

1 pint (2 cups) of baby plum/grape tomatoes, halved
1 red pepper, cored, seeded, cut into thick strips
1 red or sweet onion, peeled, cut into chunks
5-6 garlic cloves
Extra virgin olive oil, as needed
Sea salt, to taste

You’ll also need:

3/4 cup corn kernels
1 14-oz can Fire Roasted Tomatoes with Green Chiles
1-2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
A squeeze of organic raw agave  syrup, to taste
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

Arrange the tossed veggies on a baking sheet in a single layer, leaving some room for the corn; add the corn to the baking sheet in one section.

Roast the veggies in the top third of the oven until the veggies get tender and edges get nicely browned- anywhere from 30 to 45 minutes. If you have a grill you could grill your veggies instead of roasting.

Spoon the roasted veggies- sans the corn- into a food processor bowl; add the canned tomatoes, balsamic vinegar, cumin and a drizzle of agave. Cover and pulse a few times to achieve the consistency and texture you prefer. Don’t puree it- keep some texture.

Pour the salsa into a storage container; stir in the roasted corn and cilantro. Taste test and adjust the seasoning to your liking.

Cover and chill for at least an hour to allow the flavors to co-mingle. Co-mingling is good.

Serving Ideas:

Serve as a dip with tortilla chips or yummy Brown Rice Chips.
Serve as a condiment with grilled fish, chicken, rice, enchiladas, tacos, you name it.
Serve as a fresh uncooked sauce for pasta or polenta.
