Obama Occidental transcripts and scholarship facts, Truth about Obama full scholarship explored, Fake AP story emails clever diversion

“Why has Obama, since taking the White House, used Justice Department Attorneys, at taxpayer expense,  to avoid presenting a legitimate birth certificate and college records?”…Citizen Wells

“We have just gone through one of the most secretive administrations in our history, and not releasing, I think, these records at the same time, Hillary, as you’re making the claim that this is the basis for your experience, I think, is a problem.”…Barack Obama October 30, 2007

“We were both scholarship students,”Bill Snider, Obama Occidental classmate

When I first received notification about the alleged AP story about Occidental College releasing Obama’s transcipts, as I always do, I checked it out and found no reference to it with the Associated Press. I believe it was a clever diversion.

The question is, who created it.

The Obama camp is masterful at diversions and preemptively disarming controversies such as Obama’s drug use.

I believe this to be another example of attempting to disarm a story.

It is not going to work. The search for the truth will continue.

Here is some background on the controversy.

From the LA Times January 29, 2007.

“Occidental recalls ‘Barry’ Obama”

“U.S. Sen. Barack Obama is usually described as an alumnus of Columbia University, where he earned his bachelor’s degree, and of Harvard Law School.

But the Illinois Democrat began his undergraduate education at Occidental, and the 1,825-student liberal arts college in the Eagle Rock neighborhood of Los Angeles isn’t shy about claiming him as an alumnus for his two years there (1979-81) on full scholarship.”

http://articles.latimes.com/2007/jan/29/local/me-oxy29

From Citizen Wells August 7, 2012.

“Downtown baker knew Obama way back when”

“Bill Snider bucked other classmates by calling him “Barack.”

“Everyone called him Barry,” Snider says. “I didn’t. I loved the name Barack.”

“Thirty years ago, Snider, who now owns Simple Kneads Bakery here, shared the proverbial battered collegiate sofa with Obama and others at Occidental College in Los Angeles.”

“We were both scholarship students,” says Snider, an Ohio native. “We came a great distance to Occidental. Neither of us had a father. My father died when I was 6. We were both broke.”

From Politico November 11, 2007.

“Obama records requests prove fruitless”

“On Friday, Lynn Sweet of the Chicago Sun-Times reported that she had asked Obama at a news conference: “Do your state senate papers still exist? If they do, just where are they? And would you ever intend to make them public to be responsive to some requests?”

Sweet wrote that he replied: “Nobody has requested specific documents.”

But the Chicago Tribune has reported that it “requested documents from his time in Springfield and never received a response.”

And Sweet wrote of her own paper, “The Chicago Sun-Times has also been asking about Obama’s papers.”

http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1107/6821.html

As Obama began gaining in stature as a possible Democrat nominee, more questions were being asked about his past. Obama continued avoiding proving where he was born and providing records about his college years. He also minimized his contact with Tony Rezko, which was proven to be a lie during the Rezko Trial.

On August 21, 2008, attorney Phillip J. Berg filed a lawsuit requesting proof of Obama’s eligibility for the presidency and for copies of Obama’s records.

In Berg’s Motion for Expedited Discovery he requests:

“Any and all college applications and records, including but not
limited to Occidental College, Harvard College, Harvard Law
School, University of Chicago, Columbia and any other colleges
which Defendant Obama applied at;”

From the New American December 2, 2008.

“This story has gained credence, separating it from Internet rumors, because Obama has reputedly hired three law firms (firms, not lawyers) to make sure that
no one gets access to his birth records in Hawaii or his college transcripts from Occidental College and Harvard. (It is speculated that the transcripts will
show he applied for aid to foreign students.)”

“Alan Keyes, a presidential candidate of the American Independent Party, and Markham Robinson, a California elector, have now sued to see Obama’s birth
certificate (these men would definitely have legal “standing” to sue as plaintiffs in this case).”

http://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/election/562

Alan Keyes, et al attempt to subpoena Obama’s Occidental Records January 15, 2009.

Obama’s attorney.

The Fake AP article was dated April 1, 2009.

Snopes correctly debunks the article email as not originating from the AP and provides the following info.

“Barack Obama attended Occidental College in California for two years as an undergraduate from 1979-81 under the name Obama, not Soetoro (the latter is the surname of his Indonesian stepfather, Lolo Soetoro):

Jim Tranquada, Occidental’s Director of Communications, said: “Contemporary public documents, such as the freshman ‘Lookbook’ [a guide distributed to incoming freshman] published at the beginning of President Obama’s first year at Occidental, list him as Barack Obama. All of the Occidental alumni I have spoken to from that era (1979-81) who knew him, knew him as Barry Obama.””

http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/birthers/occidental.asp

FactCheck.org provided a very misleading if not false statement.

“Claim #15, foreign student aid. The claim that Obama got “foreign student aid” is untrue. That wild falsehood began as an absurd April Fools’ Day hoax in
2009, which we quickly exposed.”

http://factcheck.org/2012/07/obamas-sealed-records/

Wrong! Since FactCheck.org nor anyone else that I am aware of has seen Obama’s Occidental Transcripts, we do not know if he received foreign student aid. We only know that the alleged AP article was faked and that Obama continues to hide his records.

To this date Obama has used private attorneys such as Fredric Woocher and Robert Bauer to keep his records hidden.

More damning for Obama is that he has also used US Justice Department Attorneys, at taxpayer expense, to keep his records hidden.

Here is a list of some of the US Justice Department attorneys who have assisted Obama in keeping his records hidden. Their representation of Obama is a matter of public record. This list does not include the support staffs.

Elizabeth A. Pascal

Neal Kumar Katyal Acting Solicitor General

Many of the references to Obama’s birthplace leading up to 2008 stated that Obama was born in Kenya.

And recently we learned. 

“Breitbart News has obtained a promotional booklet produced in 1991 by Barack Obama’s then-literary agency, Acton & Dystel, which touts Obama as “born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii.”

The booklet, which was distributed to “business colleagues” in the publishing industry, includes a brief biography of Obama among the biographies of eighty-nine other authors represented by Acton & Dystel.”

Next we will explore the type of full scholarship that Obama may have gotten to attend Occidental.

  1. An OT carry over comment, but important to see more of the demoralization of our gov. agencies/SCOTUS/military, etc.
    More up is down; down is up…..more of that step of “demoralization” of the country:

    Janet Napolitano-run Homeland Security treated male staffers like lapdogs, federal discrimination lawsuit charges
    James Hayes Jr., who now is New York’s top Homeland Security cop, claims Napolitano filled top spots in Washington, D.C., with two of her gal pals who were bent on tormenting male employees.

    Bryan Pace/for New York Daily News
    Dora Schriro
    Looks like the Department of Homeland Security could be renamed the Department of Hyper Sexuality.

    A blistering federal discrimination suit accuses agency honcho Janet Napolitano of turning the department into a female-run “frat house” where male staffers were banished to the bathrooms and routinely humiliated.

    James Hayes Jr., who now is New York’s top Homeland Security cop, claims Napolitano filled top spots in Washington, D.C., with two of her gal pals who were bent on tormenting male employees.

    The suit identified them as Dora Schriro, who is now running the city Department of Correction, and Suzanne Barr, the chief of staff for the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

    Soon after Schriro and Barr were hired in January 2009, male staffers were treated like lapdogs, Hayes claims.

    Barr “moved the entire contents of the offices of three employees, including name plates, computers and telephones, to the men’s bathroom at ICE headquarters,” the suit says.

    Barr also stole a male staffer’s BlackBerry and fired off a message to his female supervisor indicating that he “had a crush on [her] and fantasized about her,” Hayes claims.

    Sometimes, Barr took a more direct approach. In one case, she called a male colleague in his hotel room and screamed at him using sexually humiliating language, the suit says.

  3. Obama has shown his birth certificate twice—short form and long form. He has shown both the images and the actual physical copies to the press. In contrast, Mitt Romney has shown only a Web image of a photocopy of his short form birth certificate.

    Obama does not have to show his college records, and no president has done so (Bush’s was leaked by a source at Yale, but Bush did not show it). And Romney has not shown his college records either.

  5. Observer,

    That is simply disturbing news.

  6. EllenHancock,

    That is highly false, given you are also only telling a half-truth to part of your story.

  7. EllenHancock,

    I’m all ears. Speak.

  8. C.W.,

    You are all over this issue coverage and spot on! Geraldo, Trump, Root, Romney and many more need to pay attention to CW research.

  9. Ellen, put down the Koolaid !

  10. Observer……….
    What would you expect from a LESBIAN. The US government is OVERRUN with SEXUAL DEVIATES…….both male and FEMALE. Further I look upon MMMMMSSSSS.IMPORTANT as such as well, in spite of the fact that she has grown kids. I strongly suspect that she turned to lesbianism because her old man the “canner” wasn’t “keeping the home fires burning”. I am sure that he had good reason.

  12. Ellen Hancock…………
    There used to be a WW2 CVA aircraft carrier which bore the same surname. (Hancock).It was completed to late to see any action in the Pacific war. Instead it was for many years a training ship, which never left it’s pier at North Island Naval Air Station, across the bay from San Diego Cal. There was a lot of jokes that went around about the USS Hancock. One of which was that it was a very strange ship, and the people in ship’s company were strange people. Your assertions that our POTUS has shown two BCs is an assertion that I would expect from a person who might have spent time aboard the USS Hancock. Yes he posted two ALLEGED DOCUMENTS which he also asserted was his birth records. BOTH HAVE BEEN PROVEN TO HAVE BEEN FORGED. The forensic people are not wrong,but there is even a stronger fact which has been made public information but I will NOT tell you about it . You need to discover thhat one for yourself. It is right out in plain asight and even a child could see it. So I will leave you to think about what I am talking about. Lets see if you can even THINK,REASON,or use LOGIC, like all the people who comment here at CW.

  13. folks,
    Ellenhancock most likely does not know where the “kool-aid” comments originate. Be nice…:-)

    Jim Jones would certainly appreciate it…

  14. HEY, ELLEN HANCOCK………….
    HERE IS YOUR CHANCE TO BECOME FAMOUS……….if you believe so much in the truth, how about becoming a go between of your obvious IDOL,and Mr. Romney. Perhaps you can even BROKER A DEAL where your IDOL shows everything including his ORIGINAL HAWAII BC,(WHICH WILL BE A PHOTOSTATIC COPY of the ORIGINAL,and bear ONAKA’S CERTIFICATION,SIGNED BY HIM IN PUBLIC.), along with all of your IDOL’s college records complete from OCCIDENTAL TO HARVARD, and in exchange Romney would provide his tax records for the same interim period of time. Why don’t you act on that one. It is your chance to become really famous,maybe even make a lot of money. After all GOD helps he/she who helps themselves. GO GET EM ELLEN!

    ++++++++++++++++++++++++

    My friend,

    You done lost her within the first sentence.

    Perhaps, Hancock comes from the movie ‘Hancock” whereby he was an outsider with ultra strength that could save the world and peoples views? At least that was the movie’s paradigm and tends to match the Liberal Socialist/Communist views. Who knows.

    However Oldsalt, I think you lose them with factual history. LOL.. 🙂

  16. OldSalt,

    Maybe give them a little line, let them play with it, allow them to tug a bit, tease them, and when they finally take the bait, sink that hooker into their mouth and reel them in…..

    LOL… 🙂

  17. William…………

    Exactly! If she pulls it off, I will personally beg her forgiveness for comparing her with the strange people of the USS HANDJOB, which is one of the jokes about that ship………get what I mean?

  18. To help keep things in perspective…
    Try to remember that the gay agenda is not about sex…even though they would like you to think that it is…it is about “power and control”. Don’t forget also that they make up less than 1% of the population. Part of the “deviant”, or “cult-like” behavior stems from pure laziness, in that it is far easier to have and/or maintain a relationship with a same sex partner than with one of the opposite sex. The not-so-“deviant” (hidden) behavior is to rely on the ‘perception of deviance’ to advance an agenda of political power. From this we can glean that there are quite possibly a lot fewer truly gay persons out there than they would like us to believe…The benefit, of course, would be extra-legal rights and recognition as a political class other than those who already have constitutional protections. The advancement of a cause for political gain is like any other cause. It requires, first, that the cause be recognized, and what better way (as with any terrorist agenda) than to be made visible through otherwise totally disgusting behavior (such as gay parades) which is how terrorism (such as bombing an orphanage) maintains it’s visibility…

  19. Coldwarvet2……….
    If the focal point of sexual deviates is NOT SEX then why the hell do they prefer deviate sex at all. After all an anus is a far cry from a vagina.

  20. Coldwarvet,

    I agree with your views of the agenda by the federal government. In my opinion, they [federal government[ have absolutely no constitutional power to even discuss such issues. What happens behind the closed doors of an adult persons sexual preference, is none of my personal business nor theirs. Attempt to make it a “Law”, it then becomes every bit of my business as a taxpaying citizen.

    Marriage between a man and woman, is a Biblical union and a practice as such, religious. The LBGT community are attempting (in my opinion) to gather votes to certify that their sexual behavior is therefore acceptable by mans law, and if so accepted, they believe acceptable in the afterlife before the judgement of God himself.

    They intentionally are attacking the religious definition of marriage. In other words, to say they have a “union” is not good enough. They want the word “Married” as the religious definition applied to them. This is infiltration of religion.

  21. CitizenWElls's avatar citizenwells

    Thanks William.

  22. OldSalt,

    While true I have been married only once (thank God) for 26 years, married at the age of 22 after graduation, I can honestly say, thank goodness Al Gore had not created the internet during such time. I had more one night stands (women) and temporary girlfriends in college, then one wishes to count.

    However, that is a far cry to having the liberal socialist attempting to get me to believe as a taxpayer, that I should have the responsibility for others sexual belief as “Gay” and somehow, I am personally responsible for their instability mentally and should pay in my tax dollars for their Mental therapy, Medications, and group treatments.

  23. C.W.,

    I would say “Stay on Top” of the issues, but you are already and have been for years. Your research and news is coming to light. Now, a fraction of the media is using your researched news in recent participle light.

    Once a partial light is exposed, all else else will then revel itself….

  24. Folks this is amazing…….

    Ellen Hancock has just solved a problem that we here on CitizenWEll’s blog have been struggling with for over four years.

    This wing-nut knows for sure that Barack Hussain Obama has shown both his long form and short form birth certificate, and she also knows he doesn’t have to show any college records.

    I noticed that Ms. Hancock didn’t say BHO had shown both of his REAL birth certificates…just two fake birth certificates that he probably got out of a Cracker Jack box.

    She also knows that Mitt Romney hasn’t shown anything.

    Damn, I wish Mitt would end this and simply say, “I’ll show you mine, if you will show me yours”. If he doesn’t qualify that statement, BHO just might take him up on it.

    God, I just love CitizenWElls blog. Every day brings more surprises for us. We are so fortunate to have such a smart person like Ms. Hancock bloging with us now.

    WELCOME ABOARD… Ms. USS HANCOCK.

    Re: “I noticed that Ms. Hancock didn’t say BHO had shown both of his REAL birth certificates…just two fake birth certificates that he probably got out of a Cracker Jack box.”

    Okay. Obama has shown both of his REAL birth certificates. Only birther “experts” have claimed that the were forged, and they have not shown that the are real experts, and they certainly have not shown that they are impartial—which is why nobody believes them.

    The most recent of many confirmations of the facts on Obama’s birth certificate stated that the officials in Hawaii had checked the facts on the long form birth certificate that Obama published against the ones in the files and that they were exactly the same, that they matched. That was the confirmation that the Conservative secretary of state of Arizona accepted as evidence and ruled that Obama will be on the ballot in Arizona, as he is in all the other states.

  26. CitizenWElls's avatar citizenwells

    Ok Ellen Hancock,
    if you are sincere, I will approve your next comment.
    1. Anyone can get a COLB, born anywhere per HI law. Non debatable. Fact!
    2. The image placed on Whitehouse.gov had “or abstract” at the bottom. That automatically disqualifies the image as proof of a copy
    of an original birth certificate.

    I am an expert in computer & business systems & extremely well informed.
    Wells

  27. ellen hancock,
    you stated:

    “Okay. Obama has shown both of his REAL birth certificates. Only birther “experts” have claimed that the were forged, and they have not shown that the are real experts, and they certainly have not shown that they are impartial—which is why nobody believes them.”

    1. The left HATES sherrif joe and are always trying to get rid of him.
    2. Joe is up for re-election.
    3. Wouldn’t the easiest way to show that joe is unfit for the job be to prove what he has stated about the forged document is WRONG!?

    why haven’t any of you leftists done this? Possibly because they can’t?

  28. Gotta love it,

    All three of my personal birth certificates, twice amended are facts that I have an original, somewhere. They are just that, amended.

    Yes, I do have 3 of them from the 60’s. Once at birth. (the actual original), once when my mother amended for name change of Father a year later, and once when adopted later by her new husband.

    Which one is correct? The State will tell you the later one is, by law. But the hint, is the “amended” portion.

    Can’t happen? Try again. I am living proof.

  29. Hancock….

    You are apparently a planted OBOT here in CitizenWEll’s blog, and it will do no good for the intelligent people on here to try and correct your unfounded illogical crap….so

    If you insist on believing the world is flat, that’s your business……but don’t attempt to get the rest of us to go down that wacky road with you..

    We the INFORMED and intelligent 3/4’s of the other people living in America will hold fast to what we have been shown and what a law enforcement officer has proven. BARACK HUSSAIN OBAMA IS A FAKE.

    Obama’s a phony, and an ALIEN, and no amount of Bulls–it you bring forth can prove otherwise.

    It is senseless for us to argue with you, so therefore, I will not be wasting anymore of my time with your stupid claim…..

    Get a brain please.

    _________________________________
    Sorry, hon, just the opposite. HI officials have NEVER stated, refuse to, that the layered image placed online by Obama was the exact image of anything they may “on file”. Because of the HI system NOTHING presented in any court by them could be verified. In fact, their “system” creates a national security problem as it is no different than a border state where all kinds of illegals can enter. You DO know of course that Obama’s half sister, born in Indonesia, has a HI COLB!!

    One thing though….since you made it this far to CW’s why not simply head into the archives and locate all of the links that could direct you to the actual facts and allow the truth to bring light to your darkness! Within those links is contained the recorded interview by investigators with the woman who signed off on all double checked HI “BCs”. She was the one who said that the blocks of information that had the penciled in “9s” above them, placed there by the checkers, meant they were coded as “no information given by applicant” and thus should have been left blank on any legitimate forms. And she said “that there were no mistakes” on her watch. Go take a look at the phony image that you accept without question and find those penciled in “9s”. In fact the forger must have been such a dunce that he didn’t even scan the finished product to prevent the separation of the many layers….duh! “What a wicked web we weave…..etc.” The least schooled in photoshop immediately saw the forgery….why couldn’t you????

  35. Ellen Hancock,
    It is hard to tell if you are an honest seeker or an obot plant, but one thing you should realize, and that is Citizen Wells has researched and reported on these issues for years. He is “creme de la creme” (In case you don’t know, that is French for “the best of the best”) when it comes to intelligent, thoughtful research and reporting.

    If you are sincere in your posts and truly want enlightenment, then hang around and learn something like the rest of us have. If not, then fly away to some other blog or planet, preferably. They that honestly seek shall find.

  36. your on a roll this afternoon Cabby…..

  37. hey Cabby…

    You refer to Wells as “creme de la creme”. That’s best of the best in French.

    I refer to Ms. Hancock ( or what ever her/his name is) as: “Dinky Dau”…..that’s Vietnameseslang for crazy.

  53. There are three people I will never vote for; Obama, Ron Paul and Paul Ryan. If Romney picks Ryan, it is a game changer and not for the better.

  54. Fox is just announcing that Romney will announce his VP pick tomorrow morning at 9 AM Eastern. They are talking a lot about Ryan, but also Rubio and probably others.

  55. As long as the choice for VP is not Rubio or Jindal, I am okay with it. They are not NBC and are constitutionally unqualified. If America doesn’t like the NBC requirement, we can amend the Constitution. But we ignore it at our own peril.

  56. The VP choices are very disappointing all around. I can’t believe this is the best we can do.

  57. Hate to disagree Tina, but Paul Ryan is an excellent choice. Much better than any of the others mentioned and he is most importantly a conservative natural born citizen. I love it if it turns out to be true.

  58. Guy on Fox said Rubio got the call he was not the choice. True or not who knows.

  59. Do you really think baby boomers who are going on Medicare will vote for Ryan? The country is center right, not far right. The press will destroy Ryan like they are trying to do to Romney. There are not enough far right conservatives to win an election.

  60. The baby boomers who have any brains wil realize the Ryan plan will save SS and they won’t be affected at all because anyone over 54 would continue as is. If nothing is done the whole thing goes broke in a few years and nobody gets anything. And Ryan’s plan can be modified anyway. He is young, articulate and wicked smart and a conservative. The only downside is his family is about to go through hell for the next few months. I am praying for them if this turns out to be true. Romney/Ryan sounds good to me!

  61. Sorry meant to add Medicare reform in there too. It will also go broke if something isn’t done and Ryan is the only one who had a full out plan to save it. It can be changed you know or modified but at least he can say he had a plan and a very thoroughly researched plan too. Good for him and for us.

  62. It is the group over 40 and under 54, a group that votes regularly, who will be scared to death. In a major recession they won’t take the chance of losing their benefits.

  63. No matter who Romney picked, the Dems and the msm would be out for blood. Ryan is very good at holding his own against these fools just like he did when he calmly faced Obama down across the table during the meetings at the WH. He owned Obama and he will trah Biden in a million pieces in a debate. My guess is Biden will be dropped and Hillary will be brought in. IMHO.

  64. To each his own Tina but I think Ryan will be a great pick.

  65. The country is totally confused on the Ryan budget. He couldn’t explain it at all. Ask folks on the street what it is and they haven’t a clue. If the GOP plan is to take away contraception, health care, and social security, good luck with that.

  66. Are you serious Tina? Wow what you just said are all the liberal talking points. I thought you were a conservative. The repubs want to take away contraception, social security, healthcare is right out of the Dimmies play book. If you believe that then you had better vote for the fraud currently occupying the WH.

  67. The only person who will match up with Hillary is Condi Rice or possibly Chris Christie since he is a pit bull. Trouble is they are not conservative enough for the far right. If Hillary is picked and we have Paul Ryan, it is game over. Romney projects calmness and confidence enough to move the country in a conservative direction. Paul Ryan will scare all the moderates away who were willing to vote for Romney.

    ———-

    That is what they will say. It is not hard to figure that out given the dirty campaign they are running. Again, Romney projects an air that can convince folks because no one believes he is a radical, but many folks believe Paul Ryan is just as radical as Obama is.

  69. Let me enter the discussion. I think Ryan is a great pick. He’s vibrant, young and very intelligent. I just saw on Fox that AP is announcing that a Republican leader has reported it IS Ryan. He is not your typical politician, because he is fearless and doesn’t give a hoot about his popularity.

    Tina, you are not talking like a conservative tonight. Cjzak is right about the Dem talking points. Conservatives want less government, not more, as you suggest.

  70. If it is true, I won’t vote, and I doubt I will be the only one. The far right can’t can’t win on their own, and if we lose, the far right can only blame themselves because I was willing to try with Romney. Not anymore.

  71. Cjzak, Isn’t this great news? I am SO glad that neither Rubio or Jindal was picked. Our worst fears are over with regard to the NBC. I began to think it would, perhaps, be Ryan after reading that Romney is going to make the announcement before the USS Wisconsin. Of course, it could have been Pawlenty, too, but they were reporting that there was a special plane spotted in Chicago which landed at Ryan’s hometown and spent some time there.

  72. I guess for once I agree with those who say they won’t vote for Romney. I either will stay home or consider Gary Johnson.

  73. Tina, for crying out loud! The President is the one we vote for, not the VP.
    You’d be wise to rethink your position, unless you want four more years of Obama. Sleep on it a couple of weeks before you firm up your decision.

    If you ever thought Condi Rice was going to accept, you must not have heard her repeated refusals to consider any political office. As far as Christie is concerned, he would “turn off” more moderates than you might think, if that is your criteria. He is obnoxiously overweight and at times loses his temper and is rather a loose canyon. Just my opinion.

  74. Tina, Would you vote for Gary Johnson? If you don’t like Ron Paul’s views on drug legalization, prostitution, and other strong social issues, how in the world could you vote for Johnson? Have you heard him recently? He is more libertarian than Paul. Let the dust settle. Take a hint: Don’t jump to conclusions until you have seen and heard Ryan again. Okay?

  75. I have to question anyone who bows to the far right. Romney bows to the right when he wants and bowed to the left when he needed to in the past. He needs to be his own man which he is not. I can’t vote for Romney/Ryan and looking at Twitter right now there are a lot of folks upset about this pick. I fear for this country right now. There is no center right anymore. Just radical and more radical.

  76. I am pleased to see that Romney chose Rep. Paul Ryan as his running mate. He is someone who can make the case that the country WILL go under, over the cliff, if the fiscal situation is not put on a sustainable path. That’s the discussion that will appeal to the middle that are paying attention and understand the consequences. That’s the clear choice for voters – dependency, mediocrity, limited freedom vs. limited government, fiscal sanity. If voters chose Obama, we deserve everything that comes our way. If voters chose R/R, there is at least hope that they will talk to Americans as adults and a more sustainable path can be embarked upon.

    Ryan seems to me to be a center/right person of intellect, reason, compassion and character. I’ll be sending in my small donation soon. I like Rubio and Jindal a lot – but I really don’t want to be a part of voting for a person that I believe is not eligible to serve. Hopefully Ryan and Romney understand that it is totally destructive to the fabric of our society to create a society of dependent voters whose votes can be purchased by playing to that dependency. Ryan can make the case for limited government.

    In my opinion, Romney/Ryan are the only viable choice this election. They are not my first choice. However, if Obama is reelected, there will not be an America that holds liberty and fiscal sanity in any regard. We must get everyone we know to vote and then let the chips fall where they may.

    I do think that the Tea Party should become a real party to hold all politicians accountable and educate voters of the real issues.

    Maybe they can combine with the Libertarian Party and become the LiberTEA Party, utilizing the Libertarian groundwork.

    Good morn CW and everyone.

    Paul Ryan is a mainstream conservative as is the majority of tea party folks. Only the Obama media and DemORATs call them far right in order to portray them as extremists. Fact is, there are very few right-wing extremists. Both the Dem and Repub parties have moved left for the past several decades while the American people have not…most are still center right.

    If Ryan is the choice we need to support him…we are already supporting a moderate Repub in Romney who BTW, has been called an extremist himself by many in the Obama media. This is all a labeling game by the media and Dems to put all Repubs into that right-wing category. We should not play that game.

  78. Paul Ryan. Good choice.

  79. By the way, Tina, nobody is trying “take away contraception”. It is more than readily available at cheap prices for anyone who wants to purchase it.

  80. Philo-Publius's avatar Philo-Publius

    Flipping through the news channels, I see the Obama media are smiling and excited about the pick. Ryan wants to kill old people so he will compliment Romney who likes to kill woman. Both hate kids, the poor, women and all minority groups…wanting to take away food and welfare benefits. Both want hate the environment, want to poison the air, poison the water and give money to the rich.

  81. Citizen Wells,
    Good morning to you and all bloggers, well except perhaps our obot visitor Ellen. I am just happy Romney picked a Constitutionally eligible candidate, it’s a start. Second, I’m glad he picked someone near Ron Paul, someone whom people from both sides of the fence can identify with DOMESTIC ideas. Third, Ryan has already demonstrated an understanding of government budget and entitlement problems which is really the elephant in the room. This is an acceptable ticket for any American whom wants a future Constitutional republic, and not a fascist welfare state. The choice is yours America.

    Fourth, Ryan can kick Obama’s butt in any honest debate of the issues

  83. Pete, I completely concur. Paul Ryan is an excellent choice.

  84. CitizenWElls's avatar citizenwells

    Good morning all.
    Thank God he picked a NBC.

  85. I agree, CW. Now I hope the campaign quits pussy footing around and goes for the jugular.

  86. I hate to say, “I told you so”…..but I told you so.

    Two months ago, I said, if Mitt Romney was serious about running for president that he would pick Paul Ryan of Wisconsin….he did.

    Great pick…great team…solid win in November.

    Can you imagine Ryan trying to debate that bumbling fool, Joe Biden….now thats one debate I will not miss. They can sale tickets to watch that.

  87. I agree Rm. great choice, great team. R&R—-the Rescue Rangers!

  88. Good morning, All,
    For once I’ve gotten up early enough to watch the announcement on TV.
    Gov.. McDonnell is now speaking. I’m so relieved that Romney picked an NBC. Otherwise, we really would have a problem on our hands.
    Of all those considered for the VP spot, I think Paul Ryan is undoubtedly the very best! Go Romney/Ryan !

  89. Good Morning All; I am feeling good about Ryan and I can’t wait for the debates to begin…I keep imagining Ryan vs. Biden and I can’t help but laugh…Ryan is going to mop the floors with him…

    Just watched Paul Ryan coming down from the ship to greet Romney. I got a lump in my throat. They will do it Folks.

  91. He looked so good in front of that ship. Strong and determined. Great op staging this where they are. Good for the Romney team. Ryan is delivering a smack down speech.

  92. Amazing speech. I am fired up again. He will be a good advocate for all American citizens, our Conservative values and he loves this country. Nice job Paul Ryan!

  93. Philo-Publius's avatar Philo-Publius

    They are leaving Norfolk and should be in Ashland, VA in about two hours. This is the same place Sarah Palin came to when she was campaigning as VP.

    I’m on the way out the door with the family.

  94. Great choice…great speech…..Thank God Mitt made the right choice.

    I just have ONE disagreement with Ryan’s speech. He said; “Obama is part of the problem”…….that is incorrect………. OBAMA IS THE PROBLEM!

    OK, Mr. Obama, and your ineffective lap-dog Biden…………BRING IT ON !!!!

    Someone said when Mitt made his announcement, OLD JOE headed for the local bar to drown his thoughts of debating Ryan over the economy or anything else.

    Results so far with Drudge Poll – Is Ryan’s choice good?

    YES 79.62% (147,070 votes)
    NO 11.71% (21,941 votes)
    NOT SURE 8.59% (16,084 votes)

    Don’t project on to the rest of the country your own obvious confusion. So far the country and congress itself can’t explain Zero’s socialized medicine plan that is bankrupting them but you appear to be fine with that confusion since Ryan is the ONLY one with the guts to counter it and find another way to keep the best healthcare in the world which, btw, exists now and being abolished by your “centrist” or liberal friends. Apparently you wouldn’t recognize a fire hose over a piece of crumb on the floor if your house was on fire!

    And we had no idea that you favored abortions forced to be paid for by those still with some moral character in this country because that is what is being forced by your seeming beloved Obamacare. The following facts are definitely NOT for “the health of the woman”!!

    That “innocent” little “pill” you also seem to desire to continue for the masses also acts as an abortifacient. In long term pill takers the uterine lining shrinks to the point that doesn’t allow embedding of the already created/conceived life…thus many more abortions than we already know about. The large majority of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolisms in childbearing age are due to birth control pills. Heart attack is normally rare in the childbearing years but is 2 times higher in a birth control pill taker and 10 times higher in a smoker who takes the pill. Similarly, the incidence of stroke is 2 times higher in pill takers.. And the most startling is the incidence of breast cancer.. Before the pill, the incidence was 1 in 25 women; now it is 1 in 8! If taking birth control pills, especially those with a higher estrogen content, for 4 years or more, the risk of “triple negative breast cancer” increases. They are resistant to normal hormonal manipulation treatment. The contraceptive mentality is a very slippery slope towards promiscuity;”hook ups”…or haven’t you noticed?? with its rampant spread of STDs, higher-than-ever divorce rates and paradoxically not less, but MORE abortions! So what was intially heralded as a revolutionary liberation of women, in fact liberated men from responsibility, destroyed women’s dignity and respect and opened the door for the culture of death.

    These truthful facts are from a well respected woman physician in our community who honors her accountability as a doctor “to do no harm” who states publicly that “If I, as a medical doctor, will be forced to prescribe contraceptives, I will choose penalty or whatever “martyrdom” the government will impose on me.”! And she experienced the Communist system. We need more people in our culture like this…not less…and the few remaining will be heavily persecuted by the beloved liberal media and its idols. The cry should be “Obamacare as well as all the socialized policies, never” because the suffering it will cause to those most in need will be like nothing we’ve ever experienced.

    The willful ignorance of the American public, due too often to the purposeful hiding of the medical facts from women (and men) is amazing. All hail the “medicine” coming from the “mind” of Obama and obots willing even to commit infanticide when abortions fail and consider life to be “punishment” upon the mothers and fathers. We’ve had enough of your centrists who have been nothing more than pawns for the liberal/leftist agenda.

  97. God Bless America and the next President of the United States, Paul Ryan.

    And God Bless that agent that wacked the cock roach in Ann Romney’s hair.

    I am a happy camper.

  98. Ok folks, I will be the first to admit…I was absolutely brought to tears as I watched both Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan coming down those stairs.

    It wrought such emotion from me. As both were announced, the sudden reality as this is our LAST hope for America smacked me to my very core.

    Both speeches were great, honest and revealing. A sense of real political statesmanship and integrity. No hypey hope and change BS; just real Americans speaking to the country and commiting themselves to returning this country around.
    The libs will now start their viscious attacking…That is a good thing, because the electorate will begin to see the stark differences between character and integrity versus hype and thuggery. Easy choice…God Bless them.

    We all know how Biden got to be Obama’s VP. I remember his wife saying that Joe had a choice of being Vice President or Secretary of State. Obama gave him a choice? Now why was that? It has something to do with Delaware Attorney General Beau Biden and Larry Sinclair.

    Good morning, Honor, and Everyone,

    I woke up to the news and had the same reaction as you did. I breathed a huge sigh of relief that neither Jindal nor Rubio was selected; if either had been, I would’ve had to sit this one out.

    Back in June, I contacted the Romney campaign for a bumper sticker for my car; it’s been sitting on my table pending his VPOTUS choice. If the t-storms can stay away for a little while, I plan to place it on my car today. Now, this action will set me up for auto body damage at work (moonbats, ya know) but I will ask the security folks to please keep at least one security camera trained on the red car (coffee and a muffin is in it for them 🙂 ).

    ROMNEY/RYAN 2012!!!!

  102. SueK,

    Let me know when you want more Obama barf bags. We had some at the last Tea Party and they went fast.

    I still have a few of them and am planning to fashion some sort of display with one of them for *inside* my car; that may cost me two strips of bacon along with the coffee and muffin for the security team, but it’ll be well worth it!

    http://www.theblaze.com/stories/a-truly-inspired-choice-rumored-gop-contenders-react-to-ryan-vp-pick/
    …Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), another finalist, called the Ryan pick “a truly inspired choice.”

    “Throughout his life, Mitt Romney has made great decisions, and choosing Paul Ryan as his running mate is a truly inspired choice,” Rubio said in a statement, according to the Sunshine State News. “I got to know Paul during my Senate campaign when he endorsed me early on when I was still considered a long shot. Paul Ryan is a courageous reformer who understands our nation’s challenges, has proposed bold policy solutions to solve them, and has shown the courage to stand up to President Obama and other Washington politicians trying to tear him down.”..
