Make no mistake about it, 2011 has been a year of disasters, Earthquakes, Hurricanes, Tsunamis and Other Natural Disasters. We saw the worst earthquake in years hit Japan and followed by a disastrous Tsunamis. And other Natural disasters across the globe have made 2011one of the worst years on record.
But the biggest disaster of all, in my opinion is the effect this presidency is having on the American economy

Occupy Wall Street: Does anyone care about the anti-Semitism?
http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/right-turn/post/occupy-wall-street-does-anyone-care-about-the-anti-semitism/2011/03/29/gIQA43p8rL_blog.html
In Los Angeles, California, protester Patricia McAllister, who identified herself as an employee of the Los Angeles Unified School District (we can only hope she is not an educator), had this to say:
“I think that the Zionist Jews, who are running these big banks and our Federal Reserve, which is not run by the federal government… they need to be run out of this country.”
On the American Nazi Party website, leader Rocky Suhayda voiced support for “Occupy Wall St.” and asked, “Who hold the wealth and power in this country? The Judeo-Capitalists. Who is therefore the #1 enemy who makes this filth happen? The Judeo-Capitalists.”
One of [the] people reportedly responsible for organizing the “Occupy Wall St.” protests, Adbusters editor Kalle Lasn, has a history of perpetuating conspiracy theories that say the Jews control America’s foreign policies.
Back in New York, another protester insisted that “a small ethnic group constitutes almost all of the hedge fund managers and bankers on Wall St. They are all Jewish. There is a conspiracy in this country where Jews control the media, finances… They have pooled their money together in order to take control of America.”
This does not mean all or even most of the OWS protesters are anti-Semitic, but the prominent liberal leaders who have shown sympathy for their cause have failed to speak out, as have the other elements within the group. Israel Today reports: “More than the few Occupy Wall St. anti-Semites themselves, it is the lack of a clear and firm repudiation of their hateful rhetoric by the mainstream American media and political leaders that has a growing number of Israelis and Jews on edge.”
A growing number of Israelis and foreign Jewish groups are expressing concern over the anti-Semitic flavor of some of the “Occupy Wall St.” economic protests in the US. . . .

Barack Obama to Republicans: : 'You think we're stupid?'
Thinking that reporters were out of the room, President Obama opened up Thursday night about the recent budget talks with Republicans and what he called their efforts to sneak in attacks on Planned Parenthood and his health care bill.
"I said (to Republicans), 'You want to repeal health care? Go at it,' " Obama told backers in a private meeting with an open microphone.
" 'We'll have that debate. You're not going to be able to do that by nickel-and-diming me in the budget.' "
He said he added: "You think we're stupid?"
But I I think it's the other way around, he thinks that we are stupid! As Forest Gump put it "Stupid is as Stupid does"

Obama opens bus tour with attack on GOP jobs plan.
President Obama began a three-day bus tour to rally support for passing portions of his jobs bill Monday as Senate Democrats introduced the first piece that would temporarily fund some local teachers and emergency workers’ wages at a cost of $35 billion.
Just last week, the Senate blocked the president’s $447 billion package of new spending and extended tax cuts, so Democratic leaders plan to break it into individual bills, each paid for with a small surtax on taxpayers making $1 million or more. That would frame the choice as one among public employees, construction workers and the jobless on one hand, and the wealthy on the other.
The only Job Obama should be trying to save is his own.
And boy is he ever!
