Jobs....Who's Responsible?


By Jueseppi B.
I have been hearing a lot lately about jobs. Here is an estimation of just how many jobs are missing each year and other ideas about the unemployment rate in America. There is no doubt that jobs and the unemployment numbers of Americans, are on the minds of all Americans, those with jobs worry about keeping their jobs, and those without a job, of course, worry about finding a job. Here’s my quandary…exactly whom is responsible for providing jobs to and for Americans? Who do YOU think is responsible?
It continues to be batted around Facebook, that POTUS Obama is the worst POTUS ever when it comes to jobs. Another LIE told by the GOPretenders. Here is the person, the Wall Street Journal, labels as“the worst record on jobs on record”. I tend to believe The Wall Street Journal. So my question to you is this…Who Is Responsible For Creating Jobs? I think that responsibility falls to the private sector and to our local government, and NOT The POTUS. A President can sign legislation, to give federal dollars as an incentive to the private sector, to create employment/jobs. A President, with the help of Congress, can secure  funding to build up our American  infrastructure system, which will create jobs. A President can offer tax breaks to private companies as incentive to hire veterans, or minorities, or the handicapped. A President can come up with all types of plans to create jobs, but a President has no real ability to create one job on his own. Not one.
This is the latest fiasco of deflection of a phony issue, onto the shoulders of this POTUS. There was the “birth certificate” non-issue. Followed by the “religion” non-issue. Lets not forget the “Ground Zero Mosque”  non-issue, even though this place of worship for NYC, and it’s rather large Muslim community, was not near ground zero. Then there was the non-issue of his aunt being an illegal, living in America. Followed by the latest attempt to draw attention from important accomplishments, the dreaded “vacation” non-issue. All these “issues” were invented by the GOPretenders and the teaparty-baggers to keep the focus off the things this President was accomplishing, and the media was the ring leader. Jobs were not much concern for the RepubliCANTS while they were focused on any one of these non-issues.
So, you see, it is not about jobs at all, it is rather about race. I know….you say that I think everything is about race. Well, as was said by Snoop Dogg, “well ain’t it tho?” Race play’s a major part in every issue with this President, because things are being done daily, to this President, that have never been done to a sitting POTUS ever….in history. This POTUS has constantly fought for the American people, to have affordable, working health care, to have student loans deferred, to save social services from being hacked to pieces by the religious right, battled to have social security payments, veteran benefits, and all entitlement checks go out on time. All for the average American. So why on earth would he be the most hated on, the most talked about, the most disrespected, President Of The United States?
Skin Color….. NOT Jobs.

Religion


By Jueseppi B.


OK, I am a Christian, and that means I believe in Christ & his Father, God. I do NOT believe Religion is to be used by GOPretenders OR Democrats OR Progressives OR Independents OR Libertarians OR ANYONE, for political gain, or for use in any way other than God intended it to be used.....for your own private, personal salvation.


I do NOT believe it is my job or responsibility to "convert" you or talk you to Christ. And by the same measure of respect, I do not believe it is my place to bash, ridicule or degrade your beliefs, however they differ from my beliefs. You are an Atheists, or an Agnostic, I am happy for you. You are a follower of Islam, or a Buddhists, may your days be filled with peace and joy. What I am getting at here is this.....America was founded on religious freedoms, so I will not bash, degrade or belittle what you believe in....and I will demand, and receive that same respect from non believers. Or we will do battle.


I own/administer to a few groups on Facebook, and of course with them being "open" groups....all issues are out there for discussion. I find a lot of members like to blame religion in general for the few people on the "Religious Right" who are misguided about what religion is actually all about. Religion should never be used to gain a political office, religion should never be used to control anyone's sexual orientation choices, religion should never be used to beat people over the head to come around to your way of thinking. 


Religion is NOT Thor's Hammer. The Bible, is a book written by humans, it is subject to human interpretation and was NOT written by God or Christ. Your faith, or lack of faith, or whatever you choose to believe in, is YOUR business, not mine.
Using religion for ANY purpose other than your own personal private salvation, in my unhumble opinion, is against the Laws of God, and if you are a believer, then believe you will be dealt with in time by powers greater than I. 


God has told NOBODY to run for elected office, that is a lie. God does not punish people from the LGBT community, with natural disasters or HIV, that is a lie. God does not want Rick Perry or Michele Bachmann to be POTUS, that is a lie. I believe God wants us to live right, do whats right, and be an example for the youth by being right in how we live daily. Nobody is right yet, because we all are sinners before God. To be free of sin would mean we are perfect, and nobody is perfect. Well...Ms. Julie Kindle Driscoll is damn near perfect, but she smokes so....


My point is, when you who are NOT believers or who are not religious, but maybe spiritual, blame ALL religious people for the shameless foolery of a few whack jobs who use religion for the wrong purposes....that is just wrong. I, nor others who believe, are to blame for the religious right and their unChrist like ideas. Blaming every Christian for what the religious right does, is akin to me blaming every Caucasian for what a few white supremacists or racist are responsible for doing, saying and believing. I would be wrong, and so are you who place blame on ALL Christians for the Perry's & Bachmann's of the world. 


I hope this makes it clear what religion is all about for those who finger point and degrade Christians. To be a Christian is to be Christ like in your living. We are nowhere near being Christ like yet, we strive to be so each day, but we fall short and sin, which is why we need Christ/God in our lives. We choose to believe, just as other choose not to believe.

Primarying Obama


By Jueseppi B.
There appears to be a quiet storm brewing, to primary POTUS Obama. If you think hurricane Irene did some damage to the eastern seaboard over this past weekend, let these morons attempt to primary the President. TheDemocratic Party will quickly become the Divided Destroyed Democratic Party, formerly know as the Idiot Party. U can not primary greatness you fools.
This POTUS has 245 current accomplishments, all achieved in 954 days time, with the full opposition of both Houses Of Congress, depending on what issue is currently before which House. And you want to primary HIM? I hear all the stories of "disappointment" in this great man from all sides but especially from inside his very own ranks. How can anyone possibly be "disappointed" in a President that has fought for ALL Americans, against the elitists top 2% of Americans? Daily this POTUS fights for the middle class, the lower class and ALL of the Americans who fall in between. If you believe yourselves to be "disappointed" now, just wait to see what happens if you dick around with this man's Presidency, and allow some circus clown from the GOPretenders Party to gain the White House in 2012, I guarantee you "disappointment will be the last thing on your mind. Not one past POTUS, that includes 43 men, have had the opposition from all quarters, as this man has had against him from day one. We won't even get into the natural disasters, the man made catastrophes, and the fake, phony issues created by the tea party-baggers to distract us all from this POTUS's agenda. 
Some names I hear batted around as potential Primarying candidates areHillary Clinton & Bernie Sanders, Sanders is not even a Democrat! I think what it boils down to is the Democrats looking for that "great white hope". Once again racism rears it's ugly head. But let's concentrate on this Primarying thing...what message do you think Primarying President Obamawill send to the GOPretenders, and to every American voter who voted for Obama in 2008? No confidence in OUR President. If there is one man on this planet that I have full and unwavering confidence in, that one man is Barrack Hussein Obama, 44th POTUS. 
There will be no Primarying of this President. We The People will not stand for that garbage, that disrespect for this POTUS who has worked untiringly for US. A list of POTUS Obama's 245 Accomplishments, in 954 days, can be viewed here: 
I find all this Primarying talk as foolish as I find the GOPretenders running the current crop of circus clowns, as potential Presidential candidates. That hilarious group is a disgrace to the Grand Old Party. One more time in case you missed it above: If there is one man on this planet that I have full and unwavering confidence in, that one man is Barrack Hussein Obama, 44th POTUS.
